BADLY HANDICAPPED.

Percival Roberts said that in compet-
ing for work and the supply of mater
ial in South and Central America, his
company as we'll as all other manufac-
turers in the United States. are badly
Handicapped by the lack of transporta-
tion facilities. England and Germany,
he said. had steamship lines to ports
in South and Central America which
sailed weekly, and this certainty of
transportation gave English and Ger
man manufacturers a great advantage
over the Americans in their endeavors
to obtain the trade of those sections,
and in great measure deferred Amer
leans from entering into competition
for the same.
The government. he said, should sub
Sidize steamers so that regular sail
ings to South American ports could be
looked for. Such line of steamers, he
felt confident, would in a few years be
self-supporting and the assistance from
the government could then cease. With
equal transportation facilities. he said.
the American manufacturers could
compete with the world.
