Excerpt from The American Invasion I have been asked by many friends to amplify my articles and speeches on the "American Invasion." I have decided only to issue in book form the article which appeared in the Pall Mall Magazine for March (which I reprint by the kind permission of the Proprietors) and the lecture delivered to my constituents in the Hartlepools. I repeat, that in my opinion there is no reason to think England's commerce is in a state of decadence. There is an enormous amount of capital here for investment - to stimulate, foster and support the inventive powers, the industrial and commercial enterprise of the people. We have men of great ability, knowledge and experience in all branches, to lead, advise, and instruct us. Englishmen have the opportunity of being educated at a moderate cost, and above all, I trust and believe, still possess those qualities of indomitable perseverance, intelligence, practical wisdom, and that spirit of adventure and capacity for work which have built up our Empire.
