SOUTH'S PRODUCTS

DEN OPPORTUNITY TO SOUTH
ERN MANUFACTURERS
RIG MON d, VA.-Speci

RICHM MON D, VA--Special.-
Setting forth that the South Ameri-
cRn countries held out golden oppor-
1unities for the manufacturers of the
South that would be accumulated by
the completion OF the Panama Canal,
Euner Crawford, of Chicago, editor
NNJ owner eff a big commercial pub
Ia lion, delivered a pertinent address
J. re about 200 members of the Bus
iness Mems Club on "The Trade Pos
sibilities of the South after the Open
ing of the Panama Canal"
The field OF possibilities ineStima-
BILE lay in the Latin American coun-
tries, said the speaker, but in order
40 avail themselves of il the South
ern manufacturers would have to
compete with other countries, and in
order to do this successfully would
not only have TO effect a broadening
of its commercial measures but also
. revision of the navigation laws.
He said in part:
THE paramount problem that
should interest the manufacturers of
this country is the proper conception
and solution of trade eXpension. The
spheres Of influence controlled by
European nations are so extensive
that ii behooves us TO study we'll the
situation. This great question and its
ramifications will more vitality affect
our manufacturers in few years
than the solution Of any problem now
before the American people. Upon
its proper solution depends the pros
perity of the manufacturers, and in
cidentally the prosperity of our pro-
gressive country.
Germany in the past thirty years
has not only surpassed the United
States and all other nations of Eu-
rope in trade expansion, but is des-
tined To become the leading CONNER
cial nation of the world, unless there
Is tremendous industrial awakening
along these lines in this country.
Her products are carried in Ger
man owned and controlled ships, and
are handled and exploited by Ger
mans in foreign lands. Our manufac-
turers have been amply warned of
the comm ercial attitude of Germany
and cannot but realize that in a few
years. because of the aggressiveness OF
the German manufacturer, hundreds
OF our manufactured products will be
driven from Europe.
What is going to be done by our
manufacturers, who must in the flu
ture depend upon foreign trade for
the marketing of a large part Of their
products? Reciprocity in its most com
prehensive character must prevail with

the nations north and sOuth OF US. We
must also have facilities for the trans
portation OF our products and the
protection Of our ocmu' ercial credit.
IL we expect to capture Cnd maintain
trade with the Latin American coun-
tries. there must be method in our
operations. The Panama Canal will
bring us nearer 70 Latin Am erica by
thousands Of miles than any aggressive
manufacturing nation, but We should
have our own ships to carry our prod
ucts, and our own banks to handle
our credits" -
