To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In 1917, roughly, we sent Bra- zil 1, 000, 000 tons of freight, and got back just about 500, 000 tons of vege- table products. Therefore, every other ship that goes down loaded must come back empty unless we can find other cargo for it to carry — which is a heavy tax on our exports to Brazil. The United States Steel Corporation established its line of Brazilian ships by finding something to bring back. Man- ganese is used in steel making. The steel men turned their attention to Bra- zilian mang...anese ore, leased mines, put them under the supervision of experi- enced engineers, got the best ore down to the seaboard and sent it back to the United States on ships which had deliv- ered steel products and also carried gen- eral cargo for American manufacturers and exporters. In 1917 the manganese shipments from Brazil to us exceeded her tonnage of vegetable and animal prod- ucts, just about balancing the trade. SHIPPING TRAFFIC LOPSIDED DUT today the traffic is once more be- coming lopsided.
