Abstract

« 620 REVIEWS No . 4] Foreign capital is essential for the development of the Carib- bean. It is the special merit of Dr. Jones that while urging this strongly, he does not portray it as a magic wand. " Health meas- ures, laws on immigration, educational enterprises, the opening up of undeveloped resources, tax policies affecting industry, encourage- ment of the diversification of products, budgetary practice, programs for foreign borrowing, road building" (p. 323)—these to Dr. Jones's mind are the main problems whose solution conditions Caribbean progress. They are primarily the domestic problems of the countries concerned. It is this circumstance that best supports the author's generous hopes. LELAN D H . JENKS WELLESLEY COLLEGE The Fight for Peace.
