"Our chemical and other manufacturing concerns are all too often ready to let the Germans have Latin American markets, provided the American companies can work out an arrangement which will enable them to charge high prices to the consumer inside the United States"

This quote by Henry A. Wallace is describing the tendency of American chemical and production companies to prioritize their own profits over the interests of the customer. Wallace is slamming the desire of these business to let German business take control of Latin American markets, as long as they can negotiate that enables them to charge high prices to the customer in the United States. This recommends that these companies are more interested in their own monetary gain than with offering affordable items to the American public. Wallace's quote is a criticism of the greed of these companies and their absence of consideration for the consumer. He is requiring a change in the method these companies work, so that the consumer is not taken advantage of.
