EXPORTERS MISDIRECT
EFFORTS IN TANGIER

WASHINGTON, July 31.-Vice Con-
sui General George r. Holt of Tangier,
Morocco, writes as follows relative to
the misdirected efforts of some export
ers to secure trade:
There would seem to be a tendency
on the part of certain American eX-
porters, whose experience with export
matters has been limited, to confuse
a desire for agents with desire for
buyers. The correspondence of any
consulate will show letters which say,
in, more or less these worls: Intend
ing to use every effort to increase our
export business, we would appreciate
1t If you woC Il send us the name of q
reliable and active person who would
care to represent us in your district" ."
Then, after explaining in detail just
what the line to be represented is, the
letter continues: "To this agent we
will make the following remarkably
low offer of our goods: In lots of six,
SO much; in lots of two dozen or more,
so much"
1 have never known such a letter to
result in the sale of a single American
manufactured article. The reason is
plain The writer OF the letter wishes
the consular official to be the real
"agent," and the person he terms his
agent, to be the buyer. There are
probably few consuls in the service
who can find agents" who will buy
for cash in advance, as the demand
always is, large quantities of goods
from firm of which they have never
heard, located in a country whose
business methods are strange to them.

JOHNSON MAKES NEW
REDONDO ARRANGEMENT
Candidate for GubernatoriaI
Nomination to Speak

Nsxt Saturday the Catholics all over
Southern California will congregate at
Redondo Beach to enjoy their annual
picnic. The celebration will begin in
the morning and last until 6 p. m.
I'VE had originally planned that Hi
ram w. Johnson would speak at Re-
dondo at o'clock in the afternoon on
Saturday" said Kemper b. Campbell,
Secretary of the Lincoln Roosevelt Re-
publican league, yesterday.
I'm arranging the schedule of Mr..
Johnson's tour of Southern California
from August 1st to 9Th, it was found
to be the only practicable arrangement
to have Mr.. Johnson speak at San
Diego on August 1st, Santa Ana,
August End, Redlands and san Ber-
nardino August 3rd, Cotton and Coro-
ma August 4th, leaving but two days,
Friday and Saturday, for Los Angeles
county. 1t was arranged to have Mr.
Johnson speak at Los Angeles on Fri
day evening, Friday afternoon being
the only available date for Soldiers
home. This left Saturday afternoon as
the only remaining open date which
could be given Redondo, where we had
already agreed to have a meeting. At
the time this schedule was made up,
the date of the Catholic picnic did not
occur to any of the committee having
the matter in charge.
although the presence of some 25,
900 people at Redondo Beach at this
time would afford Mr. johnson an eX-
cellent opportunity to address a large
number of people, yet this gathering.
being one of unusual Importance and
of especial significance to those who
will participate in 1t, we have no de-
sire to in any way interfere with the
successful carrying out of the pro-
gram which has been carefully ar
ranged by the committee in charge of
the picnic.
although Mr.. Johnson has a large
number of admirers among those to be
present on that occasion and would
undoubtedly be enthusiastically re-
ceived, we feel that an occasion of this
kind should be entirely free from any
evidence of partisanship. We have,
therefore, decided to postpone the
Johnson meeting until later in the
evening, probably about $50 o'clock,
which will just allow time enoegh for
Mr. Johnson to keep his engagement
at Ocean Park"

WORKERS SWARM
At LEAGUE ROOMS
Stenographers Kept Busy Ar
ranging for Formation of
the Precinct Club
ASSEMBLY DISTRICTS MEET
Twenty-Five Voters Pledge Selves
to Support Ticket in
Precinct 142
ASSEMBLY DISTRICTS MEET

The headquarters of the Lincoln
Roosevelt Republican league at 254
South Broadway presented a busy
scene each day and far into the night
all during last week.
Meetings of various assembly dis
tricts were held each evening, and
workers crowded the headquarters.
The outlook in every section of the
city and county appears to be good, 1t
is claimed, for the entire Lincoln
Roosevelt Republican league ticket.
Lincoln Roosevelt Republican league
precinct clubs are being rapidly formed
in all parts of the city and county. A
force of stenographers is kept going
night and day arranging for organiza-
tion meetings. The report from the
county is exceptionally encouraging.
The meetings held at Compton, Long
Bach, Pasadena, South Pasadena and
Alhambra during the past week were
both large and enthusiastic and showed
that the interest in the coming election
is very keen.
AS an example of the enthusiasm
and interest being shown by the voters
of the city, a precinct meeting was an
nounced to take place at 932 Georgia
street for the purposing of organizing
in new precinct 142. Twenty-Five voters
attended this meeting and pledged
themselves for league principles and
volunteered to give all the assistance
within their power to elect Lincoln
Roosevelt Republican league candi-
dates.
Saturday afternoon the voters of the
SiXty-ninth and Seventieth assembly
districts met at headquarters and sub
mitted reports of the work accom-
plished since the last meeting, week
ago. Precinct clubs were organized
Saturday nights in precincts III, 125,
107, PA, 221, 81 and 149. A club was
organized in precinct 163, and c. w.
Hopkins was chosen committeeman.
The following meetings have been ar
ranged for tonight for the purpose of
forming Lincoln Roosevelt Republican
league clubs: Precinct AZ, 1924 La Veta
place; precinct 159, 993 Ell Molino street;
precinct 152, 725 South Alvarado street;
precinct 151, 1881 Bonnie Brae street;
precinct 14O, 1903 South Flower street;
precinct 81, Ill South Flower street;
precinct 211, Sal East Forty-sixth
street: precinct 150, 1856 Burlington ave-
nue.; precinct 1SS, 443O Budlong avenue;
precinct 40 470 North Beaudry avenue;
precinct 145. 736 Hartford avenue; pre-
cinct 139, 790 ottawa street.
The campaign committees of William
A. Lamb, candidate for assembly from
the Seventy-fifth Charles H. Randall,
candidate for assembly from the
Seventy and Sidney A. Butler,
candidate for supervisor Third district,
were in conference at the league head
quarters Saturday night and reported
the progress made within the past
week. The report of Buffers super
visorial district was exceptionally en-
couraging. No place in the entire dis
trict seems to be opposed to his candi-
dacy, and everywhere he is receiving
enthusiastic support from all factions
of the Republican party. Although
victory seems to be assured, Butler will
not spare an effort until election day
in order to put his chances of election
beyond a doubt.
