New York, September 2.-(Special) )--Our

that our total trade with Canada bacl,
and forth is in money value greater than
the aggregate of our trade with the
United Kingdom.
While this notable trade was increasing,
almost silently, there were constant refer
ences to our opportunities for increased
trade with South America. Almost every
day there come to New York men of good
character enthusiastic and energetic
who bring a story of the possibilities of
great trade development with South
America. tt is thought to be not unlikely
that one of the reasons why attention
has been fixed upon South America as
inviting appeal for American capitl is the
romantic nature of some of the reports
that have come from the southern conti-

Huntsville Jurist Would
Have Dallas Justice of
Peace Court Abolished

Huntsville. September 2-(SpeciaD-Urg-
ing that the justice of the peace courts
in the suburban districts of Dallas and
West Huntsville are an incentive to fee
grabbing and other petty graft. Judge
j. W. b. Hawkins of the inferior criminal
court of Huntsville. appeared before the
county commissioners Monday afternoon
and urged that the two districts be abol-
ished. lie said his court was created
by the legislature to do away with Justice
OF the peace courts so far as Huntsville
is concerned and stop grating. but a
small defect in the law allowed the
country Justices to have jurisdiction over
the city and many minor criminal cases
originating in the Huntsville precinct are
now being diverted to the Dallas and
West Huntsville districts.
Judge Hawkins charged that the ius-
tees in those precincts have been diyid-
ing the fines with the arresting officers
in violation of the law This practice
has grown to such an extent he claimed
that the inferior court, in which no fees
are collected unless convictions result is
not paying the expense of maintenance
Judge Hawkins explained that his sal
ary was fixed by the state and would
be paid to him whether he tried a case
from now until the end of his four-year
term, but he wished to present the ques-
tlon to the commissioners so they could
abolish two useless courts and protect
many helpless people from fee grabbing

SELMA BANKS WILL RECEIVE
MONEY FOR CROP MOVEMENT

Selma, September aL)-During
the week the Selma National bank of this
city will receive a proportion of the $780,,
100000 of the government fund which will
be used by the banks of the south and
west for the moving of the crops of
those sections. For some days past Sell
mians have wondered why this city, the
very heart of the cotton raising section
and where a goody portion of the crop
is handled on it's way to market. had not
been mentioned in the allotment of the
shares which the different cities would
receive of the fund,
The principal reason Selma was not
asked to send a representative to Wash

up was because there was no clearing
house association here and it seems that

nent of one of the greatest international
mercantile houses in the world which he
rounded, are understood still to be in
partial control at least of the practically
inexhaustible nitrate mines in northern
Chill.
1hese, however. are somewhat isola ted
cases of the investment of American
capital in South America-an investment
which is probably larger than any direc.
investment of American capital in Can
ada. Americans who are of constructive
ability, who understand the principle of
systematic and economic organization, do
not look upon these investments of Amer
lean capital in South America as certain
indication of rapid and great increase in
our commercial relations with that conti-
nent
The representatives Of some of the
largest American banks who have been
studying conditions in South America so
that it may be known whether it be wise
to establish financial agents there under
present conditions, report that it is vital
that some other things be done if Amer
ican financial institutions are to be sue
cessfuily established throughout South
America. This was the point of view
taken by Wharton Barker of Philadel-
phia, who has an international reputa-
tion not only as a fnancer. but as a
profound student of economic conditions.
Mr.. Barker's influence and authority were
recognized by the Russian government
and also by the imperial government of
China, and the seed he sowed in those
countries has borne rich fruit
Looking upon South America from the
economic point of view, Mr.. Barker has
recently stated, first. that the United
States should buy of the Central and
South American countries the commodi-
ties which those countries produce in
stead of buying these products from the
East Indies and from continental Asia.
International marketing of this kind re-
quires careful study The United States,
he says. can produce almost everything
that enters into trade excepting the ag-
ricultural products of the tropics. This
is trade which Mr.. Barker thinks can
be secured by study and not by any hap
hazard methods.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-09-03
Banking Facilities Inadequate

He is persuaded that banking facilities
are inadequate, and they must be i'm
proved before our commerce between
South America and the United States be-
comes what it may become. He is strong
ly persuaded that there should be es-
tablished a very broad commercial and
financial association with main offices at
Philadelphia, Boston and New York, and
having branches in all the important cities
of South America. Under the influence Of
this association steamships that operate
under the American nation should be fur
nished as rapidly as trade conditions
need. and, next, there should be an as
sociation Of large capital directed by
American citizens who would be able to
find out what commodities, natural and
manufactured, the people on the Amer
lean hemisphere should be able to ex-
change to mutual advantage.
Apparently. Mr.. Barker is of the opin-
ion that our commercial relations with
South America cannot be increased as
they have been increased with Canada IL
we rely solely upon the quiet methods
which have enabled us to establish an
International commerce with trade with
Canada which is now in excess of $780,
000,000 a year.
