eiety of Political Economy, the
American economic expert said
that the intense concentration
of people in agriculture, the lim
ited quantity of arable land, and
the increasing birth rate will
inevitably lead to- a growing in
dustrialization of Egypt.
The key to avoiding the many
tragic errors that accompanied
industrialization in England in
the early part of the 18th cen
tury and in the United States 80
years later is adequate planning,
he added.
Can Help Plans
Landis went on to say that
America can adjust her econ
omy to Egypt's plans and pro
vide her with technical skill,
material and even capital, if
necessary.
"The mere prospect of
wealth," he continued, "is insuf
ficient to attract other than ad-,
venturers." Furthermore, "a
prosperious America demands a
prosperious England, a prosper
ous Egypt, a prosperous Brazil.1'
Speaking of the United States'
present interest in the Middle
East, Landis said that before
this war America was little con

strategic significance.
England, France, Italy and

Landis then said that during
the war American goods began
to assume a dominant role in the
Middle East, and it was there
fore natural that the United
States should begin to evince in
terest in Middle Eastern coun
tries. Painting a picture of the pos
sible relations between Egypt
and America. Landis said; "I am
optimistic over the future of
Egypt. Indeed, I have enjoyed
my stay here so much that I al
most wish that I had a personal
stake in that future."
Landis concluded by saying:
"To countries like yours and
ours, whose opportunity after
this war may be to start afresh
with new breath, new vigor and
new enthusiasm, I would repeat
to them the sage advice of Goe
the to his rising generation: Let
the young man beware what he
seeks for in his youth, for in his
old age he shall attain it.' "
