American Imports

By Don D. Humphrey

Twentieth Century Fund, 1955, 546 pp.

Tariff reduction is not regarded as a sufficient remedy for the "troublesome import deficit;" it will need supplementing by increased foreign investment. In considering his theme the author has brought together in usable form a large amount of statistical material.
