Imports In payment for their exports and past loans, a "chronic disease in the world monetary Bystcm" will develop which will "both prolong tho existing do-, pression and cause and aggravate de pression In the future." He said tno League 01 nations nau beon devoting Itself to this situation, but its success has been limited be cause Its main influence was In Europe while "it Is in the other continent; ana no& m curupu, umb the great new increases of tariff have been witnessed.' Tariff barriers in Europe, he said, are no higher than In 1927, but the status quo may give way before "a new era of competitive tariffs which only a new effort of concerted action, not confined to one continent, can avert." The effectiveness of the league de pends upon tho extent to which it io utilized, he added. Defending the free trade system, Salter said the main foundation of the normal prosperity of the United States la its constitutional Injunc tion against tariff barriers between the states.
