the war now being waged in Europe.
He explained that as oon as the credit
situation was worked out successfully
by the banks-and that is being done
now-the exporters in this country
would be in position to do business
with the South American merchants.
There undoubtedly will be a big in
crease in our trade with Couth Amer
lea countries" he said. THE business
cannot fail but be developed gradually.
The South American countries in the
present situation must turn to use for
supplies which hitherto they have been
getting from Europe. The business
of this country shodld increase
greatly"
1t was predicted yesterday that the
steel mills in this country would do a
big business in the South American
countries to which foreign steel and
iron manufacturers have been shipping
a great amount of their products, par
ticularly for building purposes. There
will be a demand for such things on
the American mills now. Likewise
there should be an increased sale of
agricultural implements.

still greater available resources for
trading with the countries on the west

There seemed no doubt in the minds
of Most persons. thoroughly versed in
the commercial conditions of South
America that this country in the next
year should do the greater part of the
50. 900, 100000 South American trade
that has enriched Europe. OF that
trade Germany had a great part be-

extended such Accommodations to trad

them to make ventures and increase
