No Indemnity Wanted by
United States From Mexico
UNCLE SAM WILL NOT ASK THAT
COUNTRY TO HELP HIS OUT
IN PAYING LOSSES.

Washington, Nov. 23.-Occupation Off
Vera Cruz, in reprisal for Huerta's
insult to the flag at Tampico has cost
the United States more than a score of
lives, some in battle and some from
disease, and. according to some esti-
mates, as much as S1O000,00O. But
Mexico will be asked to pay no indem-
nifty. Administration officials want
that fact to stand out as an added eyk
dence of the disintersted friendship e
| the United States for her Southern
neighbors.
Gen. Funston has Instructions to

can factions and thereby avoid what
might be conveyed Sg .Asnatfn-

city to whichever faction takes posi-
session.
CarranZa's commander Aguilar, is
nearest, but Carranza troops, which
have swerved in their allegiance to
Villa, are not far distant. There have
been some evidences that Carranza in
tended to move his capital to Vera
Cruz upon the American evacuation.
All those MeXicans who fear to re-
main when the Americans leave are
sailing away with Gen, Funston. The
refugee priests and nuns have been
given places on the transports, and
the Americans who remain depend for
their safety upon guarantees given to
The United States by all the Mexican
factions and those American warsh{ps.,
which remain in the harbor, III

optimism had concentrated attention for
many years on the increase OF our exports
and manufactured products.
The power OF the English trade
unions became practically arbitrary in
fixing wages, hours and general work
ing conditions. Germany found that, with
a more advantageous wage scale, she
could go into the worlds markets and
compete at prices which England could
not meet. Hence the enormous growth
Of German exports. Hence a competition
which the United States itself cannot
meet in many lines. and which it could
not meet at all did not immense natural
resources give us temporary advantage"
Commercial Conditions in Southern
States. with Special Reference TO For

A. smyth. president Of the Cotton Man
ufac .urers' Association OF South Caro-

Aside from shipments OF raw cotton,
Their was a constantly widening field
for export of cotton fabrics-a worlds
trade which amounts 70 some 81 100. co.,
90 annually, he said. The United States,
with % per cent Of the spindles and two
thirds OF the raw material, was cutting
into this huge trade 10 the extent Of

Policy Outlined by Bryan

Trade Convention.
Iron The Tribune Bureau

Washington. May Pin an address
tonight at a dinner of the First National
Foreign Trade Convention, which met
with more than 500 business men from
all parts OF the country present. Secretary
Bryan enunciated his policy toward Amer
leans engaged in foreign trade and bust
ness. The keynote OF his address was
that the United States government would
support all honest Americans engaged in
expansion Of American interests in for
eign lands.
All concerns are 10 be treated alike In
their dealings with foreign governments.
Mr.. Bryan said. and he added that hon
esty or purpose and ability TO perform
obligations assumed viii command at all
times hearty support"
Secretary Redfeld told the delegates
that they Tack belief in themselves"
He said it had only been in recent years
that American manufacturers have awak-
ened to their opportunities and had
thrown off the fear which has kept them
out OF foreign markets.
More than one English and German
manufacturer" said Mr.. Redfield. has said
TO me that the thing he feared most was
the awakened mind and the awakened
sense Of power in American industry"
James A Farrell. president Of the
United States Steel Corporation. told the
convention that a greater use OF foreign
markets would stabilize the domestic con-
ditions OF industry.
James J. Hill, discussing THE Future
OF our Foreign Trade" intimated that
the United States might be in danger or
running into such a widespread industrial
distress as England has now from at
tempting TO hold markets against com
petitors while maintaining a wage scale
that does not permit her to meet their
prices and does not offer TO capital an
inducement into new fields Of develop
ment."
Mr.. Hill compared the per capita value
Of foreign trade Of the United States
which is SAL. to that Of Germany. which
is SS7, and that of the United Kingdom.
