proximity of the New Orleans and other
leading North American ports to South
American ports makes 1t logical here that
Germany will have no chance when the
United States merchant marine is extended.
These fears have been sustained by the
latest statistical returns of German trade
with South American republics, notably
Venezuela, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador,
Costa Rica and Chile. which show that the
value of German commerce with those coun-
tries has declined even though in some
cases the bulk showed no diminutfon. This
Is readily explained by the sacrifice prices
at which German exporters sold in South
American markets during the last year.
But this strain cannot be kept up much
longer. The German government realizes
the peril to German commerce and conse-
Quently tries to inject spirit of new con-
hdence by maintaining an American naval
station which shall protect German capital
and property rights.
