J. BASSETT MOORE TELLS THIERS OF STEPS TO PROMOTE TBADE RELATIONS (By The AaJMwtateU < * Washington, Jmii. Sir—A deacrip-j tion of the accomplishment of the In ternational High Commission toward promoting trade relations among the countries of the Americas was given to. the Pan-American Financial Con ference today by John Bassett Moore, ’ vice-chairman of the commission, which was created-toy the first Pan- American Financial conference held in Washington in 1915. ’‘Substantial ameliorations of meth ods of customs* administration have, teen secured in various quarters.” said Mr. Moore. "Regulations per mitting the simultaneous loading and unloading of cargoes, and the ad vance preparation of cargoes, have teen brought about in numerous countries. "Progress has been made with the adoption of a uniform statistical classification of merchandise. Six countries have already taken favor- J able action, and two more are under-j stood to be on the point of so do ing. "Every effort has been made to ad vance uniform legislation in regard to bills of exchange, checks, hills of lading, and warehouse receipts. "We seem to be rapidly approach ing the time when, so far as con cerns bills of exchange, there will, in effect, be only two systems, in use in the Western Hemisphere, based, j respectively, on The Hague Rules of 1912 and the I'nlted States Negotiable j Instruments Act of 1916. TOMATO GROWERS FIX 1920 PRICE The South River Tomato Growers* Association held its first meeting of the season Saturday night last, and despite the blustry weather, there was a good attendance. The price and acreage were the main topics of the evening, and after lengthy diaucussion, it was agreed that the price to the canners would be 75 cents j per five-eighths basket, as figures proved that taking in consideration thei extra high price of fertilizer and all other items in connection with the to mato crop, it would be a losing game < to grow them for anything less. ■■ ' ■ I—\n1 — \n\ —rrnirnßßMMWiriiTnnfWii ■ —r —n —i n —rr~inmiwni liibiiu— ■■n—— m iiwi hi——ami I % • „ * [ •' ■- I Unusual Value—ln Tires for Small Cars _ - - - -—■■ j Not only is characteristic Goodyear merit conspicuous in Goodyear Tires for small cars \ but ordinarily the first cost is found to be not greater than that of other tires; often it i The combination of unusual value in first mm cost and very low final cost, of course, is a 1811 result of Goodyear experience, expertnesj |||i and care employed as insistently in th * I I making cf 30x3-, 30x3Vfc- and 31x4-inch tire; AAi I as it is in the construction of the famous 8 Goodyear Cord Tires used on the highest* I priced automobiles* i For this reason more cars using these small Tjtjf B sizes were factory-equipped last year with |||l| I I Goodyear Tires than with any other kind.

Mr. Moore suggested that countries of the southern group which had rat ified a treaty for the international protection of trade-marks be permit ted to register trade-marks at the in ternational bureau in Havana pend ing tit* establishment of a bureau at Rio Janeiro, which awaits ratification jof the treaty by a sufficient number of eottfJiriea of the southern group. Progress has been made toward fa cilitating o iterations of commercial travelers, he said, by a treaty which substitutes a single national fee in place of local taxes on travelers. This convention has been signed and rati fied by live countries and signed by ithree more while seven others are t ready to sign. A treaty for the establishment of an international gold clearance fund I to assure the safety of deposited gold, avoid its shipment and stabilize -ex change has been signed by two coun tries and approved in principle by eight others. Agreement* for the arbitration of! comnieVcia 1 disputes have been made bet weep the Cnited States Chamber of Coninterce and the national Cham bers o? Commerce of Uruguay, Ecua dor. Panama, and Guatemala. Other J ■ agreements are being negotiated. It was also agreed to cut the acreage j 40 penAit, which means where a grower mad been planting ten acres.: he would only grow six this season, as | if he grew a larger acreige the mar ket would become flooded and instead | of being on a paying basis at the end j of the season, there would be a major- i itj> of the farmers in a "hole,” which at j this abnormal time would be a difficult matter to overcome. It was also decided that as soon as 1 the other sections were heard from j that there would be a consolidated, meeting called of all the associations, of the growers of the State, which have j affiliated heretofore, and that care to affiliate. , Thefe people who demand equal treatment for women teachers over-: i look their absolute inability to coach j | the ball team. . THE EVENING CAPITAL AND MARYLAND GAZETTE, ANNAPOLIS, MARYLAND, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 21, 1950. NEXT CONTEST IN SCHOLASTIC LEAGUE The third series of garner in thej Scholastic Basketball League will take place tomorrow evening at 7.30 n the -State Armory, the schedule be ing as follows: High School Intermediates vs. the. Grammar School; St. Mary's Catholic School vs. the Boy Scouts. Tlie High School lads are moving at a fast clip and although the Gram mar School toys are tied with the Scouts for second place in the league, it is doubtful whether they will stop the High School aggregation in to morrow night’s seito. The St. Mary’s-Scouts game will. most likely be the more interesting contest Although the Catholics are holding down the cellar position. >Ley are showing im jUbvement in team work, and they expect to put ip a real fight, not only in tomorrow’s game, but the rest of the.season The cup. which will go to the win-! ners' of t lie league and is provided; by the Community Service Associa tion, lias been received ami will be placed on exhibition at one of the drug stores if the proprietor will per jmit. ANNE ARUNDEL’S QUOTA FOR STARVING EAST Anne Arundel’s quota for relief of I the starving Near East is fixed at SB.- 000. Mrs. Robert B. Dashiell and her j committee will be at the Municipal Buildiug daily to receive donations of warm clothing for children and adults. In a recent speech in New York, death by struvation on an unprecedent j ed scale in the Near East this winter ! was predicted by Maj.-Gen. James G. | Harbord unless American relief is con tinued. General Harbord headed the j American Military Mission which re | cently investigated conditions in Ar i menia and other sections of the Near I East. # He said that Colonel Haskell, Allied ! High Commissioner for Armenia, had reported that there wrnre more than i 800,000 persons destitute in the Cau '■ casus alone, with virtually no food i available except that brought in by the American relief administration. “Most of the refugees,” said General i Harbord, "are huddled in concentra tion camps. These people are normal ly industrious and thrifty. Now they are helpless. There are thousands of children, many of whom have lost both parents and do not even know their j own names.” Steam may be a good servant, but I it occasionally blows up its master. FEED BIRDS, STATE GAME WARDEN ADVISES ! At Crif, time of the year previous to sever* cold weather or heavy snow s, it Is'always necessary to call the attention of the public to the nec essity of-Feeding the Birds. A State may do li great deal in the way of restocking depleted covers, but more can be gained by saving what we have than by purchasing at great expense large quantities of l mis. It is only necessary for Farmers and Sports men and Bird lovers to divert a lit tle time a'm| a small amount of grain to save many birds throughout the State of . Maryland and have large numbers i>f quail and other valuable birds. 'A sheltat - provided for them to protect them from the snow or a place scrapped bare in the snow and feed scattered thereon will accomplish a great afnount of good and the Con servation -Commission of Maryland urgently requests all those who are interested to do what they can, if there is any cold weather or snow during the coining months, to save the bird*.
