Asia. July 1940

1940

As the system is set up today in both the United Kingdom and the Dominions the whole effect is to concentrate tremendous power in the hands of the owning producers as opposed to consumers and labor; for the governments tend to delegate the actual administrative operations to their care. [...] Another is the shipping to the United States of the bulk of the gold production of the Dominions also to strengthen the British purchasing power here. [...] If the strongest current is the effort to mobilize the vast resources of the Commowealth to defeat Germany a current which seems to forecast the tight integration of the Commonwealth a powerful cross current is found in the effort to strengthen the positions of the individual Dominions as economic units. [...] If the marketing problem of the Dominions is in large part liquidated by the British scheme of taking up surpluses it is a temporary liquidtion and the postwar problem of disposing of the commodities may be more difficult for the Commonwealth to handle than it appeared to be in the prewar world. [...] The steps taken by the Batavia goPeehment both before and after the outbreak of the European war were such as to prclude surprises of the Islands of the Philippines encircle three sides of the Sulu Sea; North Borneo forms the fourth side.
