How to Sell Good. Abroad.

United States Consul Prickitt at Rheims,
France, In a report to the State Depart
ment, suggesting means of increasing
American trade with France, says: Selling
goods directly by correspondence. thus
avoiding all commissions, is plausible in
theory. but does not succeed In practice"

sending capable agents directly to the
buyer, or by paying commissions to agents
with the requisite equipment to negotiate
sales.
