CHINA'S foreign trade is five times as great
to-day as it was thirty years ago. When the
per capita foreign trade is equivalent to that of
Australasia, the total will be $65,000,000,000 annu
ally, instead of $1,200,000,000 as at present.
The country's vast, wealth ,1n coal and basic metals, in
vegetable and animal products, and the industrious, adapt
able character of its population make this possible of
jltimate achievement. r
The foreign branches' of this corporation have been estab
lished in the' Far East for the specific purpose of aiding
American business men in cementing closer and more cor
dial business relations. Wc will be pleased to place' their
facilities at your disposal for fullest co-operation.

ASKS $20,000,000 AGAIN
Says Couple Acted in Such a
Manner That Complainant
Could Not Endure It.
Mrs. Kennett Cowan, former wife of
Harry S. Harknosa, wealthy sportsman,
added to the litigation between her and
Mr. Ilarkncsa'u widow, Florence S.
Harkness, by starting a new action
yesterday In the Supreme Court As In
her former stilt attacking the will, In
which Mr. Harkness bequeathed his cn-
tlro estate to his second wife, the new
complaint demands J20.000.000 dam
ages.
' In her new' action Mrs. Cowan do.
dares that while she was still tho
wlfo of Mr, Harkness he entered Into
a conspiracy with tho then Mrs. Florence
S. aalnes, wife of David Huylcr aalnes,
so to conduct himself that his wife, the
I present Mrs. Cowan, would divorce him
and Mrs. Galnea would divorce her
husband, when Mr. Harkness and Mrs.
.aalnes would bo married.
"This conspiracy was arranged bo that
the defendant (Florence S. Harkness)
might marry Harry S. Harkness. It be-
, Ing contemplated by the defendant as
U!!3 Itauib UI ouiu vvilB,'.. uia. m
1 defendant should obtain a status by
i which sho could secure a large part of
the means of the said Harry S. Hark
noss during his life and the whole of
It on his death," says the complaint
Pursuant to tho alleged conspiracy,
Mrs. Cowan asserts that her former hus
band proccded to mako life "Intolerable'
for her, so that sho was prompted to
obtain a divorce from him In 1917. 'Mrs.
Gaines already had divorced her hus
band. As soon as Mr. Harkness was
released from his first wife ho married
Mrs. Gaines.
The complaint repeats the allegations
that Mr. Harkness died suddenly of
pneumonia in his apartment at 270
Park nvenuo and. that he made a will a
few hours before his death cutting oft
nia nrst wiro. who had married Mr.
Cowan, and leaving his fortune to his
second wife. Tho complaint realleges
that this deathbed will was executed at
a time whon he was Incompetent
through Illness and that It waa In vio
lation of an alleged agreement with his
first wife to leave her all his property.
In a second cause of action the aver
ments Mate that the former Mrs. Gaines
alienated the afTectlons of Mr. Hark
ness. "While still the' wife of David
H. Gaines," it Is charged, "Mrs. Gaines

London, March 2. Several Ingenious
schemes are now under consideration by
the ' Department of Overseas Trade,
which corresponds to tho American De
partment of Commerce, for (promoting
tho sale of British made goods .through-
uui me wonu. ino mcinoa mai is now
receiving most favorable comment and
seems likely to be carried out Is the
travelling exhibition.
tho department has worked out a
scheme for four trade tours of this
kind. They are to embrace the Far
isast, the British Dominions, South
America and tho United States. It is
contemplated to liavo 500 different In
dustries represented and as many more
as possible. The travelling show would
bo preceded by motion picture exhibi
tions in tho towns and cities whero It
would stop. Thcso pictures would show
the methods of British manufacture and
set forth reasons why British goods
could be bought advantageously, either
becauso of their quality, excellence of
manufacture or cheapness.
An estimate has been drawn up show
Ins that such an exhibition could be
kept on tour for two years at a cost of
only about $1,000 to each exhibitor, If
500 booths composed the show this
would be a total cost of 1500,000 and
the department believes tho money
would be well spent.
As now planned the exhibitions will
be In charge of officers of the Overseas
Trade Department who, in cooperation
with the department's overseas officers,
will arrange all details for buildings anil
the display of goods to the oest aavan'
tago In tho various centres visited,
Thcso officers also will furnish inquir
ers with Information and exert every ef
fort to bring tho prospective customer
In touch with the British manufacturer
or merchant.
Facilities will also bo provided to al
low tho exhibitors who wish to do so to
send their own representative along with
the show, but this would bo at their
own expense.
The tour of the 'Dominions will prob
ably be tho first to start and after this
experiment tho others will De launenca.
Another scheme under contemplation
by the department is the establishment
of show rooms at Continental centres
In connection with consular offices,
These points will not bo touched by the
travelling exhibitions.

According to data published by .the
Siamese customs, tho number pf motor
cars landed at Bangkok port during the
last ten years was 1,219. Of this
number 122 vehicles were imported from
tho United States during the. first five
years and 496 during the second five
years. Tho number of licenses Issued
now exceeds 1,200. but the actual number
of automobiles in dally use may not ex

During the last five years American
motor cars have practically dominated
the Siamese market in spite or the fact
that owing to lack of direct shipping
facilities between Slam and the United
States, their import was 'greatly ham
pered during tne war Dy certain trans
shipment regulations at the ports of
Singapore and Hongkong.
Practically without exception, the
American motor .cars shinned to Slam
up to the present tlmo havo given entire

of the United States in this trade is
largely due to the careful attention
given by American manufacturers and
exporters, to the requirements of this
market and to tho frequent and very
essential visits made by thejr expert
representatives. The benefits to the
trade resulting from. such. visits cannot
be too strongly emphasised in this as
well as in other lines of business.

short terra bonds will soon bo Issued to
the extent of 75,000.000 yen, and it is

Transportation and congestion have
become serious problems in the Japa

double truck street railways and a sup
plementary fleet of American motor
buses are still inadequate to the trans

Naturally It Is a city of great am

the only practical solution of the trans

before the International Commission on

said would operate against New Tork
State's 1150.000,000 bage canal, and turn
over to a foreign power control over a
waterway In which millions of Ameri
can dollars would be Invested. The
commission voted to hold a special hear

which State officials and others Inter

Invited to express their opinions.

there seems no good and sufficient rea
son why. with the rehabilitation of our
merchant marine, wo should throw our

be more economically delivered to our
own." said Mr. Williams.
"It has been argued that the expenses
of Improving tho St Lawrence route
could be met, In part, by returns from
electrical energy developed as an Incl

not bellevo that this canal project Is in
any sense a veneer under under which

The State of New York has need of

Tho 1919-1920 crop of lima beans in

vested, will amount to about 12,330 metric
tons, and will be 4.000 tons below tho
estimates made earlier In tho season, ac-

which have prevauea in mo ameur ami

On the other hand, the quality of the

Most of tho crop, according to present
estimates, will be shipped to the United
States, as several American firms have
had buyers on tho market to pick up
the entire crop, if possible.
Tho usual way of buying beans in
Madagascar Is either "fair average
quality of the season," which quality in

America Imports Moro Opium
Per Capita Than Any Other '
Country.
Tho Health Department announced
yesterday that the narcotic drug evil,
which once played so important a part
In the life of Now York's underworld,
hnn been virtually stamped out. The
cjlnlo at 145 Worth streot, opened a
year ago for the treatment of drug ad
dicts, will bo closed Saturday. The
number of persons now being treated
there )s less than 100; they will bs
transferred to the Riverside Hospital
on North Brother Island.
Dr. Itoyal S. Copeland, Health Com
missioner, said the Worth street cimio
had served Its purpose, but the registra
tion bureau will still be maintained at
the same address. Any addict who ap
plies for treatment Uiero will bo pro
vided for, and any physican desiring
hospital caro for a drug patient may
telephone to the bureau.
The Worth street clinic was opened
in April, 1919, following the arrest of a
number of doctors and druggists for un
lawful traffic In drugs and the resultant
stoppage of the sourco of supply to thou
sands of addicts," Dr. Copeland said.
"Between 6,000 and 7,000 have .been
treated In the last eleven months.
adoui nair oi uiese navo jjaaocu
hrough tho Riverside Hospital and have
been cured. Others have been treated
In other hospitals and by private physi
cians.
Tho clinic has served Its purpose and
now it Is only necessary for the public
to realize the enormity of the drug evil
and Insist on Congress passing laws- to
forbid tho importation or manufacture
of opium and its derivatives.
This country now Imports fifteen
times as much opium per capita as any
other country. This means at least
ninety per cent of tho opium In the
United States Is unlawfully sold. It Is
sad commentary on our English
friends that the Bengal Government Is
tho chief offender In the opium traffic."
Resolutions were offered by Dr.
John P. Gavin at tho meeting of the
New York Academy of Medicine last
night asking the repeal of the State
narcotic law and opposing the Glbbs bill,
which would permit search of private
houses for drugs.
In a statement to The Sun and New
Yonic Herald Dr. Gavin condemned the !
closing of the Worth streot clinic, stat-1
drug addiction is on the increase.
He disputed Dr. Copelond's claim that
many of the addicts havo been cured b
clinic treatment, declaring that cures
were not effected in such a way In eo
short a time. '

. CITY OF CARLSBAD
CZECHOSLOVAKIA
Office of the Mayor
It is our aim to advise, the American public, particularly our former
guests, of the conditions existing in Carlsbad, the well-known health re
sort of Bohemia. The city was untouched by the hand of the Great War:
it was constantly open to visitors; its springs, baths and other therapeutical
agencies were used by patients and its high pre-war standard of sanitation
maintained.
During the coming season, wc are prepared to welcome American
visitors and offer them the benefits of our springs and baths. Hotels and
private lodgings are open and ample provisions, through government
cooperation, have been made for dietetic food at reasonable' rates.
The municipal authorities of the City of Carlsbad have requested
Dr. D. Tyrnauer, Medical Counsellor and Physician-in-Chief of tile Munici
pal Institutes for Physical Therapy, who is now visiting the United States,
to give information to thpse who contemplate taking tne "Carlsbad Treat
ment" and to fully outline the general conditions prevailing in our city
and the Czechoslovak Republic.
Dr. Tyrnauer will be glad to receive daily between 2:30 and 3:30
P. M., or by appointment, at the Hotel Plara, those who seek information
regarding the "Carlsbad Treatment" and the City of Carlsbad. Mail
inquiries, addressed to him, will receive his personal attention.
