Excerpt from Getting Together With Latin America IN preparing this book no attempt has been made to go into all the details of Latin Ameri can trade, and other conditions, or to prepare a complete and analytical treatise on our past, present and future relations with the republics of South and Central America. To do that would require not one, but many, volumes, each far more comprehensive than the present work, for an entire book might be devoted to the business conditions in each republic. Al though conditions, customs and affairs differ greatly in the various countries of Latin America, yet the same generalities prevail, with but few exceptions, and I have endeavored to treat of matters in a broad and comprehensive manner without the finer distinctions which would relate to individual republics.

Excerpt from Suggested Next Steps in Latin America As I boarded the Pan American plane at Miami on April 17, 1942 for a four months' trip to the countries of South and Central America, this question was dominant in my mind: What next step is most important in each country of Latin America in order to bring about an advance in Christian education? Clearly, it would not be possible to solve all the problems of the Evangelical forces by a single sweep of a wand of mighty magic; but a significant forward move might result if just the right service could be rendered at those points from which its influence would radiate most effectively to the whole constituency. The trip took me to all the countries of South America except the Guianas, to all countries of Central America except British Honduras, and to Jamaica and Mexico. Previously I had visited Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, and Mexico. The outline map across the page shows the routes of these journeys. The first was by boat and train, the second by boat and plane, and the third entirely by plane except for a few side-trips. This pamphlet contains informal accounts of the visits, of impressions received, and of suggested next steps. No effort has been made to describe all that I saw and heard in any country. It is intended to be neither comprehensive in scope nor exhaustive in detail; rather it is illustrative and introductory. When one is introducing a friend to a group of friends, he does not tell everything about each, but gives the name and some interesting item of information which will invite further acquaintance, and it is no reflection upon the others if he happens to say more about one than he does about the rest. I like my new friends in Latin America and wish others everywhere to meet them and to gain a sense of abiding fellowship with them in their work. I hope that the suggested next steps will prove worthy and will receive careful consideration by those who can help to make them possible.

Excerpt from How We Affect Latin America's Daily Life: Latin American, No; 2 If the United States is to hold its war-time lead in Latin America's foreign trade, our business men and our public must know more and think straighter about our ability to serve Latin American countries and our growing need for their foods and raw materials suitable for our manufactures. To give the basic facts about our present and possible future relations with Latin America is the purpose of the two pamphlets which the Institute for Public Service has persuaded Mr. William J. Dangaix to write from his personal travels and studies. In the present volume, How We Affect Latin America's Daily Life, many startling facts are given, such as that the West Indies' per capita trade with us was in 1918 four times that of Great Britain in 1913; Argentine's nearly five times that of France; Brazil's nearly twice that of Sweden; Cuba's twenty-six times that of Germany; Chile's three times that of Belgium. Will the population of Latin America grow up to her almost limitless natural resources? Are we her logical trading center? How can we earn continued leadership in the world trade of our neighbors to the south? What mistakes must we stop making? What are the encouraging evidences that we have profited from past mistakes? These and similar questions are answered by Mr. Dangaix in the two readable, definitely instructive pamphlets, How Latin America Affects Our Daily Life and How We Affect Latin America's Daily Life.

Excerpt from Guide to Latin-American History It may be that proper appreciation of the existing mutual dependence can arrive only through the strengthening of the economic bonds already created. A study of our commercial relations With Latin America shows that the two Americas are essentially inter - dependent. For that reason, a considerable portion of the accompanying syllabus has been devoted to such considerations, in the hope that through the study of this prae tical basis of inter-american relations there may arise a Pan American consciousness of common aims and interests, to which this little book is sincerely dedicated.

Excerpt from Latin America and the War: Special Memorandum Within her conception of neutrality, Argentina found it consistent with her attitude to express approval of the international policy of the United States and Cuba in declaring war on Germany as well as of the action of Brazil and Bolivia in breaking off their diplomatic relations on April 11, and April 13, 1917, respectively, with the German Empire.
