proposal laid before the Federal Re-

actual commercial transactions which
have more than ninety days to run and
which bear the signatures of two re-

from China TO America. exclusive of
tea and silk, are in the hands of Ger.
man firms, the effect of this order"
can readily be seen. IL has already
been made the basis OF numerous pro-

The japanese steamship lines are
advancing their rates TO foreign firms
while giving japanese exporters re-

Another factor operating against
Americans Is the recent order by tho

Present shipping facilities, including
British and Japanese, are inadequate
for shipments, not only from the

There is an electric chair at the
Grand Central Palace this week which
does not kill. The ambitious infant
who would sit thereon must first go
through a double process-he must be
electrically iDcubated and electrically
cribbed.
But the long-distance talking to the
San Francisco fair got the lions share
of the attention. The constant stream
of visitors was especially interested in
listening in" to an account Of the
weather, the music Of a photograph
record, and the sound of the waves
dashing on the rocks, 3,400 miles away.
So realistic was the booming of the
breakers, which were at the same time
pictured on the movie" screen, that
