MORE AMERICAN CAPITAL NEEDED IN EAST INDIES THE HAGUE, Netherlands. Sept. 10, (Correspondence of The Associ ated Press).—“I regard it as most de sirable that more American capita! should be invested in the Netherlands East Indies, and I have done constant ly what l could to promote that end,” declared J. B. van der Houven van Oordt, one of three Hollanders who have just been charged with an official mission to Washington in connection with the pending export question, that so vitally concerns the Netherlands. .Mr. van Oordt is a colonial official and authority. He has been Under-Sec retary of State for the Colonies, and has also filled the post of \ ice-1 res ident of the Council of the Nether lands East Indies. To the correspondent of 1 he Asso ciated press, Mr. van Oordt pointed out that there has been a big increase in the commercial intercourse between America and Dutch India since the war, and particularly since the estab lishment of a direct steamship line between Java and San Francisco. “The five boats now engaged in that service,” he said, “are always packed | with gootls. Rubber, and all kinds ot j tropical products are shipped to the United States, and the boats return I laden with railroad rolling-stock, ma-1 chinery, automobiles, airplanes and Un like. If only the ships were avail able, the sen-ice might easily, and to j advantage, be extended. “But the amount of American cap ital operating in the colony is small in comparison with the British, Ger man, French anil Belgian capital. It is true there has been an increase in recent years. There is one American rubber estate in the island of Suma tra that is the largest plantation in the world, and special ships run to United States ports to carry its pro duce thither. But a great deal more might profitably be done, especially now money is so plentiful in the l n ion. The sugar, rubber, tea and other agricultural branches offer enormous scope for profitable investment, not to speak of mining possibilities. “Although there are at present very few in the country, Americans are popular in the Netherlands East Indies, and they and their enterprises are assured of a most cordial welcome. There is every prospect of a big ex tension of the relations between the j two countries, to our mutual advan tage.” -« City Express meets all boats and trains.
