Trade with Mexico rose by almost 60 percent to nearly $30 billion, making that country our third largest trading partner. These are all encouraging developments. Other problems remain, however. The impact of large-scale migration is affecting many countries in the hemisphere. The most serious manifestation was the massive, illegal exodus from Cuba last summer.
Science and technology were also exerting other, more subtle pressures on the prevailing order. Large-scale industrial production, fuelled by the arms race, had accelerated the movement of populations into urban centres.
This means we shall have to continue large-scale production of planes and other equipment for a longer period of time than we had originally planned. Planes and tanks and other weapons-what the military call "hard goods" are now beginning to come off the production lines in volume. Deliveries of hard goods now amount to about a billion and a half dollars worth a month.
The moderate Vandervelde also says that the Socialist program has been "formulated by or for the workingmen of large-scale industry." This may be true, but we are not as much interested to know who formulated the program of the movement as to understand its present aim.
Socialists agree in wanting to aid those small farmers who are neither capitalists nor employers on a sufficient scale to classify them with those elements, but they neither wish to perpetuate the system of small farms nor to obstruct the development of the more productive large-scale farming and the normal increase of an agricultural working class ready for coöperative or governmental employment.
Heritage cleared a space on the table and spread out a section of a large-scale Ordnance map. "I must clear my head about the topography, the same as if this were a battle-ground. Look here, Dogson.... The road past the inn that we went by to-night runs north and south."
To the cabin wall the Master turned. There hung a large-scale map of the Arabian Peninsula. He laid a hand on the vast, blank interior, and nodded for Rrisa to approach. "Listen, thou," said he. "Thy knowledge is sufficient. Thou dost understand the interpretation of maps, and canst read latitude and longitude. Mark here the place of the Hidden City!" "Of the Bara Jannati Shahr, Master?
We do not know the circumstances in which this great picture was painted but the existence of another large-scale picture portraying the circular dance the lines of cowgirls revolving like flowers, with Radha and Krishna swaying in their midst suggests that the Krishna theme had once again inflamed a Rajput ruler's imagination.
Judged on the state of the situation as it runs in our time, and allowing for the heightened efficiency of large-scale investment and consolidated management under the prospective conditions of added pecuniary security, it is to be expected that the middle-class population with "independent means" should come in for a somewhat meager livelihood, provided that they work faithfully at their business of managing pecuniary traffic to the advantage of their pecuniary betters, meager, that is to say, when allowance is made for the conventionally large expenditure on reputable appearances which is necessarily to be included in their standard of living.
Without projectors, that is, machine-guns, rifles, etc., it merely becomes a means of conveying troops and material from one place to another. Two possibilities then arise. The number of tanks required might be so small that they could be suitably armed with light projectors without entering upon large-scale production.
