’ ! The West at Bay, by Barbara
. Warq. Norton & Co., New York,
i 1948.
Europe has been the focal point
of two great wars—running sores
of chronic depression, for the past
(140 years. [;j ;
, Shortage of Yankee dollars, and
with it, paralysis of international
trade s the chief symptom of Eu
rope's present crisis.
‘lotv to pjace Europe on a
stable economic footing is the
problem Barbara Ward, young
(34) and brilliant foreign af-
i fairs editor of the London Eco-
nomist, presents and resolves in
West at ‘Bay.
Atnerica’s role in the reconstruc
tion j is known 'to all as the Mar
shall Plan, or ERP. Under
program, tho 16 non-Commur
itions of Europe have joined to

The West at Bay is the first
book published in America by Miss:
Ward. Throughout it her reason-;
ing is excellent, her clarity su-j

scribing what the U.S. and Eu^
rdpe must do in order to make the

assumption that Europe and its

good can Be questioned seriously.
