AMERICAN GOODS UNSUITED
United States Manufacturers do Not
Pay Enough Attention to the
Wants Of the Oriental
Peoples.

NEW YORK, May - O. 7. Austin,
chief OF the bureau Of statistics OF the
Department OF Commerce and Labor
delivered an address on the Neglected
opportunities in oriental markets" be-.
fore the Manufacturers Association last
night The address was accompanied by
II large number of illustrations secured
by Mr., Austin in hi, recent trip around
the world in the interest Of American
commerce, MIR, Austin explained that
they depicted the customs and daily life
among the people OF the orient and Sug'
gested the peculiar requirements OF the
markets which exist among them.
The imports OF the oriental countries
amount to nearly two billion Of dollars
annually he said. and more than one
billion dollars worth of this is of Il kind
OF material which we OF the United
States might supply. Yet we are at
present accomplishing little, very little
indeed. in supplying this great market
In that section of the orient which
lies in the tropics and has more than
hall its people and commerce, we sup
ply but one per cent OF the one billion
dollars worth Of merchandise imported
and are making no gains; while Europe,
which makes and sells nothing that we
cannot make and sell is supplying six.
ty.six per cent Of the imports and stead
ily increasing her sales
THE cause OF our failure in the orient
are quite apparent to anyone who will
take the trouble to visit the countries
and study the requirements OF the mar
krts as created by the habits OF the
consuming population.
THE oriental people form a distinct
section OF the commercial world-a sec
tion in which the commercial lines are
as distinctly marked rs those which
separate the general great geographical
OF the world.
The daily custom, OF life among the
differ in such an extreme de-
gree from those oi the people Of the
occdpnt that the merchandise manu-
factured for use in Europe on America,
A. rule is not suited to their habits of
life.
"The meaning OF this i. that those
who successfully offer good, to the
oriental people obtain ,ucces. by offer
ing articles made in form to satisfy tne
habit, and the requirements Of ths-e
people. This i, the secret OF ceiling in
oriental markets"

justified both by the experience of 9TH
er localities similarly visited, and by
the deductions of science, and was pub
lished in some form or other probably
a score, possibly a hundred times by
every daily newspaper in San Francis
co.
The truth is that all these facts have
been extensively published, but the
number and volume of them is so great
that few can keep track of them all,
and the hundredth publication is just
as likely as not, to be news to a larger
number, than the first publication.
The charges that the conditions are
such as to make rebuilding unwise, and
yet that these knowledge of these con-
ditions is being suppressed, is Of course
incompatible with the other one that
rebuilding is not going on as fast as it
ought to go on. There are square miles
of ruins to be removed. 1t will take
some time to remove them, and the be-
binnings of the work on any large scale
ust await the adjustment and payment
Of the insurance, and the laying of rail-
road rtacks through the city on which

But there are some things which
those who really care to know the sit
uation may be assured Of: There can
be no important fact about the disas-
ter or the progress Of rebuilding, sup

measures and the extent and need Of
the relief work, are not hidden No one
