AIDS TO FOREIGN TRADE
Federal Trade Commission Makes SmG-
gestions TO business Men.

CHICAGO, July 2S.--A merchant ma
rine under government control with
freight rates no higher than those of
competing vessels; the extension Of
banking facilities and the parcel post
TO foreign countries, and laws permit
ting more cooperation among Ameri-
can manufacturers, were advocated to-
day BY the Federal Trade Commission
here as methods by which American
business men can increase their foreign
trade. The commission concluded a
two days hearing.
Criticism OF the seaman's law and the
regulations of the Department of Agri-
culture as to the use of coloring oleo-
margarine was made by Louis F. Swift.
president of Swift & Co. He said, in
his opinion, there were too many laws,
and these had an injurious effect on
business. especially in attempting to
meet competition from other countries,
where the laws are not so stringent as
in America. Mr.. Swift contended that
the channels of trade should be left as
free as possible from legislative inter
ference.

WILSON'S CASE is SERIOUS
American Charged with Treason
Against German Government.
Especial to The Times-Dispatch

lSpeciai TO The Times Dispatch1
WASHINGTON, July 2S--The State
Department is investigating thorough
ly the case of Harry L. Wilson. of
Portland. Oregon. an American con-
sular clerk at Berlin. who is under
arrest there, apparently on the charge
Of treason against the German imncrio1
government.
1t was admitted at the State Denart-
ment to-day that a report was made
on the case to this government two
weeks ago by the American ambass,
dor. Mr.. Gerard. Secretary of State
Lansing said to-day, however, that he
would not disclose any part Of tho re-
port or make any comment on the stems
taken by this government In Wilson'S
interest.
1t is understood that Wilson is
charged with having issued fraudu-
lent passport to an Englishman, by
which the latter escaped from German
jurisdiction. Wilson, it Is reported.
was arrested on the Danish border.
Officials of tho State Department re-
gard the case of Wilson as more seri
Gus than that of a person of diplomatic
rank who might become involved with
Germany.
International courtesy will probably
cause Wilson to be represented by Mr..
Gerard or by some one designated by
tho State Department..

LONDON. July 2S.--The war has be-
come. and is likely to continue for some
time. contest of endurance, Premier
Asquith told the House of Commons
this afternoon. while making general
review in moving the adjournment OF
Parliament from tomorrow until Sen.
tember IA.
I'VE should be ungrateful and in
sensitive. indeed. If we did not recog
nize at this moment the indescribably
gallant efforts being made by our
Russian allies to stem the tide of in.
vasion and to retain inviolate the in.
tegrity OF their possessions
Il don't think in the whole Of mill.
tary history there has been more
magnificent example OF discipline ant
endurance and OF both individual and
collective initiative than has been
shown by the Russian army in the la q,
seven weeks.
Our new allies, Italy. are, with
carefully prepared movements, steadil,
gaining ground. making their way TO.
wards the objective. which We believe
In a very short time will be within their
reach"
STILL CONFIDENT OF
FORCING DARDANELLEs
The Premier declared that the Brit.
ish governments confidence in the re.
suits of the Dardanelles operations was
undiminished
The Premier emphasized his conf
dence in the victory OF both the French
and British armies engaged in the
western field.
The British feet is to-day far
stronger" the Premier continued, than
at the beginning Of the war. and to
its quiet and unobserved. but ubiquit-
Gus and all-powerful. activity is due
the fact that the seas are clear, or
substantially clear.
For. after ALL said the Premier
this submarine menace. serious as II
has appeared TO be, is not going to
'nhict fatal or substantial injury on
British trade. The seas are clear. We
have our supplies OF food and raw ma
ter:als upon which We and the rest
of the country depend. flowing upon
us in the same abundance and with the
same freedom. and l may say without
much eNaggeration, judging from the
insurance rates and other matters
with the Same immunity from serious
hazards and risks as in times Of peace
The Premier concluded with note
of caution TO the country. SAYING:
DO not let us suppose that our ma :
tional duty is discharged either by
sending IN adequate influx of recruits
10 the army or TO the various indus
tries engaged in the fabrication OF
munitions. The duty has been cast upon
this country, not only of maintaining
the freedom of the seas. not only OF
supplying large contingents of well
equipped men for battle fields and
trenches, but also OF financing to q
large extent the whole conduct of the
war
we cannot do that If we continue

( Sir Henry said he could keep silence

I months ago. He could not understand

/ know whether any one at the War Of

He also criticized the governments

New York. January 15.-F'rom high international banking sources it was learned today that the so-calied "in- ternational credit plan projected by Sir George Paish during his recent visit to this country. had been aban- coned.
