URUGUAY MAKES BID

We Take Most Of Her
Wool and Hides.
DEFINITE OFFER Is MADE

True to his recent promise to put tho
sincerity Of the business men Of the United
States to n test in their desire for South
General for Uruguay. made public yester.
day n concrete proposition from his coun-
try for reciprocal exchange Of commodities.
Uruguay wants 10 sell this years wool
clip, amounting to between 1iO 900, 900 and
i60,O00.o00 pounds. This is valued at
about 1000. 900. Of which in normal
years the United States takes about ga
100000 worth. Mr.. RlchlIng has in
structed the Cruguayan Consuls to say
that II the United States will buy SIC. oo0.-
600 worth OF tho wool this year Uruguay
will buy more than one-half OF IL back
in finished products
Ills country exports annually $4,000
600 worth OF hides. lie wants the United
States 10 take a good part Of the output
this year and his country viii buy great
part OF II back IN the form of finished
leather, boots and shoes. trunks. bags and
harness
II am greatly pleased nj the growth Of
trade between the United States and my
country he said yesterday I'VE are
the one gold standard country Of South
America with which you can do business
The business men recognize that and to-
morrow on steamship sailing for tho
River Plate there goes to my country
consignment or caustc soda, galvanized
iron. corrugated iron. hosiery, picture
frames hats and furs such ms have never
gone there before. The interesting thing
about this is that the arrangements made
between the BUYERS and sellers are per-
tectly satisfactory The sellers are not
Insisting on tho cash on shipment but
have extended credits fairly
Now We must handle the wool and
hides situation just as satisfa ctorily.
France. Belgium. Germany and Great
Britain took s20.O00,0oO worth Of our
wool last year against the $1,000. 900
taken Ivy the United States Therefore
Europe sold finished products back to us.
Now we want you to buy a good portion
Of that wool. and We will trade with you.
Uruguay IL rich enough 10 take care Of
the balance. She only had a ten day
moratorium.
The shearing Is not vet under full
swing in Uruguay and J think IL would
b" worth while for American importers
OF raw wool 70 send responsible repre-
sentatives to Montcvideo az once to make
their purchases. The grades and the
prices will make the trip worth taking"
