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 The New Latin America Naturally, Dr. Warshaw has something to say of the Monroe Doctrine, the Panama Canal, pan-americanism, and other international questions, and his comments on the Latin point of view should help us to see ourselves as others see us. It will surprise many people to learn that Latin Americans are more or less touchy on the Monroe Doctrine, that they consider our protective tariff a serious handicap to their foreign trade, that they resent our patronage, suspect us of imperialism, speak of the Yankee Peril, and, in general, dispute our claim to primacy in pan-american afiairs. All this gives food for thought, and suggests that our merchants, manufacturers, investors, bankers, ship owners, railway magnates, statesmen, and the general public must become more internationally minded if they would establish friendly and profitable relations with our Latin neighbors upon a firm and lasting basis.

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 The Future of South America Owing to the many exceedingly useful books on Latin America already published, I hesitate somewhat in preparing another. Most if not all of the books now issued, however, are written either for the traveler or the historian, without special appeal to commercial and industrial interests. In view of this I have, during the past few years, been systematically collecting information regarding Latin America which should be of service to those looking at this continent from a moneymaking, rather than from an historical, point of view. Although I have personally visited most of the countries of South America, I do not pose as a traveler. My visits have been short, on strictly business missions, and some of the cities about which I have written pages I have been in but a short time. Therefore I do not attempt to compete with the seasoned traveler nor the man who has spent many years in these southern republics. On the other hand, experience with statistics has taught me that often the man who sees countries at a distance, one in comparison with another, gets a truer perspective than one who has spent his life in a given spot.

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.
