FUTURE OF U. S. AT STAKE
Illinois Members Are Told That Policy
Now in Time of War Is De-
termining Factor.

Chicago, ILL.,, Aug. 6.-Decisive meas
ures to assure the United States a
merchant marine with which to take
advantage of the commercial oppor-
tunities offered by the European stu
alton will be taken on Monday by the
National Foreign Trade Council
The four Illinois representatives
George NJ. Reynolds, president of the
Continental & Commercial National
bank; Cyrus H. Mccormick, president
of the International Harvester com
pany; H. G. Herget. president of the
Illinois Manufacturers association,
and Edward N. Hurley, president of
the Hurley Machine company-yester-
day received notification of the meet
ing from the chairman, J. T. Farrell,
president of the United States Steel
corporation.
The telegram closed by saying that
"our foreign trade policy at this time
will make or mar our future"
The people of the middle west have
always opposed, and successfully. a
merchant marine subject to subsidy
commented Mr.. Hurley. They OBJ
jected to paying taxes on something
that appeared to be purely for the ben
eft of the coastwise states. If plan
is presented in a sensible, practical
way, so the middle west can under
stand it, it can be put through without
the necessity of subsidies, in my opin-
ion
Most of the Illinois representatives.
will attend the meeting.
II IN, TTDi.ad
States is a heavy importer of certain
articles it is an equally heavy export
er, but of a different grade of goods.
This, in the eyes of manufacturers and
jobbers, is calculated occasionally to
prevent this nation from taking ad-
vantage of the war abroad in not only
furnishing the American consumption,
but Selling heretofore impregnable for
eign markets as well.
Cotton cloths constitute an example.
America imported in this line from
Great Britain to the extent of S5,999,-
$50 in the IL months ending May,
1914. and s3,601,64 from France, the
grand total from all countries being
57,163, S3S square yards. valued at SILL
O92, $50 Our export trade during the
same period totalled 3S2.9S6,6S2 square
yards. valued at s26,6O3,653. going
chiefly to Canada, Mexico, Cuba and
Central and South American coun-
tries. The foreign proportion was
small.
Chance For Auto Makers.
On the other hand, the American au-
tomobile manufacturers have a large
monopoly on home trade and shipped
for the same period 27O1S cars, valued
at s24,5S3,435. The imports were 27S
cars, valued at S5SS.747. With for
eign motor car works closed the Unit
ed States can improve its already
hold, as the following govern
ment expectation figures indicate:
