6 LATIN AMERICA IS GOOD TRADE FIELD Expert Says Southern Republics Hold Great Possibilities for U. S. Manufacturers OFFER FINE TRANSPORTATION Yankee Dealers Can Compete Be low Equator with Europeans on an Equal Footing (Special to The Herald) "WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.—"Every month sees the establishment of new American business housea in South America," said Dr. Albert Hale, chief of the division of Information of the Pan-American union, in an Interview here today, "and almost all of these are proving highly BUCceßsfuL There j )s no doubt that the great future for the trade expansion of the United States lies in our sister republics of the western hemisphere. "Trade with these nations is increas ing far more rapidly at the present time than with any other part of the world. In Jfi'O our exports to tfouih America amounte 1 to $38,946,788, In i 1910 they were or nearly two and a half times the earlier amount. To the countries of North America, in cluding, of course, Canada, we sent $187,594,625 in 1900 and 385,620.069 in 1910, a doubling In value. In the same period our exports to Europe adv only 9 per cent in total value, while those to Asia and Africa show a slighl decline between the beginning and end of the decade. Of course, if our com merce with other countries is to growl we must take a.s well as give, and our imports from South America have more than doubled since 1&00 while those from North American countries have grown even more rapidly. When one realizes how little has been done by American manufacturers toward devel oping a demand for their products in L,atin America it becomes evident that I the possibilities In the systematic en- eouragement of reciprocal trade rela tions, with our neighbors of the west- ; crn hemisphere are simply tremen- I dous." 11 am: AN authority Dr. Hale is probably the best in formed authority in the world on con ditions in the countries of Central and South America, having traveled through them repeatedly and being in close touch with correspondents in all the leading cities of these lands. His observations on the prospects of com mercial expansion in the trade between these countries and the United States I therefore possess exceptional Value. "There is a common impression among Americans who have not in- i formed themselves," said Dr. Hale, j "that the merchant and manufacturer of tho United Stat3s is handicapped in seeking 1 South American trade by in adequate transportation facilities and high rates. Conditions in this respect have improved greatly in recent years. Aa the freight movement, and more particularly the passenger movement, is far greater between South America and Europe there naturally are more steamship lines In operation between these two continents and a great many more tramp steamers are in this trade. The liners running from American j ports, however, are very good, sub stantial and efficient boats as Is shown by the fuct that few tramp steamers run between the two continents. There Is no American line running south of the equator and naturally it would be a source of pride and satisfaction if our ilaj,' was more In evidence, but it is a mistake to say that then- are no good steamships running to South America from the United States. The time is the same, or to some ports a little less, by the shiiiu running from this country, and the rates are on ft par with those from Kuropean ports. CAN COMPETE WITH EUROPE / "The American manufacturer who proceeds intelligently is able to com pete In South American markets on equal terms with those of Great Brit ain, Germany, France and Italy, as is shown by the success of those Ameri cans who go about it systematic uiy and who do not expect to capture a market without any adequate outlay of time, money and effort. "A plan that is being adopted with good results by many manufacturers who do not feel like undertaking the expense of developing the South Amer- | lean field all by themselves is to make arrangements with othei plants in al lied or related lines and to have all of them work together through one agen cy. This is an excellent method for the small manufacturer, Americans are learning that 11 up trade by simply placing cal il or .samples with old having European affiliation! bul I do it by their own efforts ai their own representative rep resentatives of course must themselves with the I language of those from r seek business and the mai ufacturer ■who is in a hurry for Imtni suits is likfly to bo disappointed. "The better understanding that has come about between the r this country and those to the south of us within recent years has laid the dations for a great commercial pansion. We need many of the prod ucts of these countries and use rapidly mci uantltiea t I manufactures."

' NEW ITALIAN WAR BALLOON PROVES TO BF FAILURE Dirigible Accomplishes 300-Mile Trip with Difficulty ROME, Nov. 26. —A long criticism of the new Italian military dirigible bal loon No. I, which performed the voy age of 300 miles from ISracclano to Campalton, near Venice, but only after accidents and stoppages which pro lonpced the Journeys from one to three days, is published by the Tribuna.

He also considers that the weight of 672 pounds, which the balloon Is carrying, involved the throwing overboard of all the ballast and the sacrifice of all the benzine that there was in stock in order to effect the passage of the Apennines. Consequently, the critic argues, the balloon In real warfare would have arrived too late, and, even when it had arrived, would have be*n without the means of executing ma neuvers.

CABBIES PROTEST AGAINST TAXIS IN DUBLIN PARADE DUBLJN, Nov. 2«.—The annual pro cession of the Gaelic league through the streets of Dublin was witnessed by lftrge numbers of people, many of whom had come up from the country for the day. The procession, which oc cupied about an hour in passing a given point, was composed of branches of the league in the city and county, schoolboys, hurling clubs, friendly so cieties, trade unions, members of the corporation wearing their robes and .the chief officials of the league. A de tachment of the city fire brigade also attended. There were some tableaux representing the influence of the league, and In the Industrial section several npeciniens of Irish manufacture. Many of the trade societies had their larKe banners, and the hurling clubs and others carried a number of white cards held aloft, on some of which were printed the words, "The Gaelic league wants neither police, soldiers nor shoneens." One remarkable feature of the pro cession was a detachment of 100 Jar veys on horseback. They carried cards on which were printed In large preen letters "Anti-Taxi association." They were the members of the Car Owners and Car Drivers' association, who are opposed to tho Introduction of taxi cabs Into Dublin. While the proces sion was a large one, some of the sec tions, such as tho industrial, showed a shrinkage when compared with for mer years. There were twenty-one bands present. Including several bands of pipers. Afterward a public meet ing | was held In Rutland square, at which addresses were delivered by the officials of the league and others. , » i » It's a< easy to gecur* a bargain In a used automobile, through want advertising, aa It used to be—and (till Is—to secure a horse and r:irrlßfft» GOSSIP SHOCKING? SURE; BUT SHOCKS HELP WOMEN CHICAGO, Nov. 28.—Women like to gossip because the news of the terri ble things the neighbors have done gives a pleasing shock to thetr vaso motor systems. Unless the vaso motor system receives a goodly share of shocks the Individual suffers from ennui. At least this Is the theory which William I. Thomas, professor of soci ology at the University of Chicago and Inventor of the term "the adven titious character of woman," pre sented to the delegates of the National League of Handicraft societies. "Our primitive ancestors led excit ing lives," Professor Thomas said. "We eharo the appetite for excite ment which their experience built up in the race, and, different as our oc cupations and amusements are from theirs, we enjoy them In proportion aa they provide the »hocks to ths vaso-motor system which they got out of hunting, fighting and escaping from dangerous animals. We crave ■mocks. _ "Perhaps that In the reason some women love husbands who beat them. ELEPHANT SAVES MANY LIVES DURING FLOOD CALCUTTA, Nov. 26.-Had It not been for an Intelligent elephant the disaster to the Indian pilgrims in the Ganges, near Sororl, * few weeks ago would have been considerably more serious. While thousands of pilgrims were bathing the river suddenly rose and 200 of the pilgrims wuro drowned. The elephant, which belonged to Jung Bahadur, saved, it Is said, at least 1000 lives. With ropes attached to its trap pine"! it repeatedly swam out to the distressed pilgrims, who clung to th« ropes and thus landed safely.
