United States Prepares To Protect

‘Good Neighbor_and Good Customer

More American Money Invested . In Canada Than Any Other Nation

I BY iVllLTON BRONNER

.NEA Service Staff Correspondent

l 5 WASHINGTON, Aug. - As the

Joint. defense of Canada. is rapidly ‘organized, United. States ‘moves to protect its best neighbor, I its second best customer (the Unit- ied Kingdom is firstn, and the peo- |ple nearest to Americans in man-

ner cl life, customs, reading and amusements.

The famous 3000 miles of un-

fortified frontier 1s now more than ever o. path of communication rath- er than u barrier. The old distrust that. followed the Revolution and the War of 1812, and which has been progressively dying for 125 years, now virtually vanishes be tween two peoples. -The Canadians, while thorough- ly loyal to the British Crown and Empire, are more closely akin to Americans than to Britons. They have the same kind of cities, they developed a new country in the same way, they have the same kind of agricultural and industrial problems, and have created a civ- ilization in the same kind of sweeping continental way.

If the heart lies where the treas- ure is, then a considerable part of the American heart is concerned over the safety of Canada. About one-third of all investments of U. S. money abroad is in Canada. These investments are greater than the total in any other coun-

y.

When Canada had tariff walls, trade was difficult for U. S. manu- facturers. So they simply built new plants 1n Canada.

But many, regardless of tariffs. invested in plants in Canada be- cause there was good money to be made there

INVESTMENT TOTAL NEAR. TWO BILLION!

Official government figures give some astounding totals.

Those quoted here mean that: U. S. interests had anywhere from 30 to 90 per writ control of the plants in which the money was invested: manufacturing plants. $530,098,000; public utility and transportation. $519.928,000: paper and wood pulp, $268.B97.000: min- ing and smelting, $238,838,000; in- suranoe, $l19.746,000; petroleum. $108,138,000; wholesale tors, $40.309.000: retail distribu- tors. $38.238,000; agriculture. $10,- 360,000; miscellaneous, $6l,64l.000.

This makes a total of $1.036.- 193000. to which should be added $15,448,000 for American money infested in Newfoundland indus- res.

The figrues for public utilities

include $340.000.000 in gas and electricity undertakings. Copper and nickel predominate in the

mining investments.

U S. money invested in shares in Canadian companies, not for control but merely as an invest- ment upon which to draw divi- dends. is estimated at $2B5.000,000.

A total 0f 5446000000 in U S. money is invested in Dominion of Canada bonds. Another $483000.- 000 is invested in bonds of tile

provinms and cities, and $01110,- 000 is invested in vemment guaranteed corporate nds such as those o1 the Canadian National Railway. And finally. $221,000,000 is invested in private corporation bonds whose issues were largely floated in the U. S. market. Canada looms large for the U.S.

also asla ‘market and a: $11 source . l

o suppy or goods w a y need. .

In fact, Canada rankse first as the MGnUfOCh-"mQ $530.098.000 market from which America im- _ . » . l.

norts and second as the oountry to which it sells.

LOCATION HELPS TRADE WITH U. B.

Canada's world trade is ex- ceptionally high in proportion to its population. 'I‘hl.s is partially because of its very high per caplt income.

It imports large amounts of crude products which its own re- sources can not supply. It also buys many types of manufactured goods its own factories do not make.

For these imports Canada looks naturally to the U. S. because of geographical position and similar- ity of consumption habits.

Low transportation costs make it mutually advantageous for Can- l ada and the U. S. to trade with one another.

US. exports to Canada in ne- cent years have been as follows: . 1937, $509,300,000; 1938, $467,800.~ l 000; 1939, $493,450,000; first half i of 1940. $316,671,000. i‘

Public tiiitie, Tcinsortotin $5i9,9Z8,00

‘mmjsllroncooo l . $108,138,000 '

U. S. imports from Canada were: 19317, $298.000,000; 1938. $260,200.- 000: 1939, $332.681,000; first half of 1940, $181,234,000.
