provided in the agreement under which
the bureau was established that any
country desiring to withdraw from the
union at the end OF the hrst ten years
should give notice Of such Intended
withdrawal year in advance OF the
ten years expiration. The time for the
announcement for Withdrawals expired
in July, and as not a single South
American country has given notice OF
intention to withdraw. the union ts GER

terms with the present Republican adj
ministration in Washington. There is
more commercial information being
sent out from Washington to the South

commercial information being furnished
by the South American republics to-day
to the government in Washington than
at any time since the organization OF
the international union and the estab-
llshment of the Bureau Of American
