The United statehas been fighting to maintain the world value of the dollar ever since Britain devalued the pound a month before Christmas, . To 'do this, the U.S. must im- prove its international balance of payments.- At the present time, the U.S. Is spending three and one-half billion dellati a year MORE abided than it taker in from other countries. This cannot go on indefinite- ly. Unless the drain on the dol- lar can be stemmed by: thesteps taken so far by President John- son, the U.S. will have no re- course but to lower the value of its dollar in comparison with foreign currencies. This is de- valuation, and it was the course forced on Canada in 1962, and twice on Britain since the last war, all because expenditures abroad were outpacing revenues from other countries. There are two main _reaspns for the U.S. deficit, in foreign exchange. First is the vast foreign in- vestment which US. business has been making in Canada, western Europe and other non= Commgnist regions. While it is true such invest- ment eventually brings foreign funds by way of profits back into the U.S., the last 10 years has seena record American investment abroad in buying up companies and starting new businesses. Profits have started to flow back to the U.S., but not yet in sufficient volume to offset the original investment. It was for this reason that President' Jahnson Oil New Year's Day announced curbs on Americans. investment abroad. He called for halt to U.S. pri- vate investment in western Eur- ope and said investment in Can- ada, Britain and Australia would be limited to 65 percent of the amounts invested in 1965. Curiously, this program met with mixed reaction in Catiada and elsewhere. While U.S. in- vestment has always spelled jobs and higher incomes in Can- ada and elsewhere, it also has carried with it the spectre of U.S. economic .dominationn Many Western Europeans, par- ticularly the French, welcomed President Johnson's investment curbs. In Canada, Mr. Sharp's first reaction was that Canada would not be seriously affected.. But, this, was before the threat to tax imports. The second - and major - reason for the U.S. dollar drain Is of course the war in Viet- nam, where seme V.5„billion is being spent every year -in a war which is becoming increasingly hopeless.
