LE SURPLUS DE NOTRE PRODUCTION

de la laine, du coton, du bois, du charbon, des comestibles, du café, du tabac, etc.
L'ARGENT S'EN VA
Pour rester capable d'acheter
LA FRANCE DOIT EXPORTER
le surplus de sa production.
l'Etranger en a besoin;
ON NE SAURAIT DONC TROP PRODUIRE
Voyez.......
LA 'PROSPÉRITÉ' VOUS ATTEND
Imp. R. GUILLEMOT et de LAMOTHE, 35. r. des Pts. Champs, Paris
[What is this ship waiting for? Our surplus production. France has to buy in from abroad: wool, cotton, timber, coal, foodstuffs, coffee,
tobacco, etc. Money goes out. To remain able to buy France has to export its surplus output. Foreigners need it; so it would be impossible
to overproduce. See ... The good ship 'Prosperity' is waiting for you. R.
