Extension and Improvement Of
Governments Foreign Com
merciaI Service Favored.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Jan. S.-The
referendum which was issued to the
constituent members of the chamber
of commerce Of the United States OF
America on November Is requesting
a vote upon a report Of committee
which recommended the extension
and Improvement Of the governments
foreign commercial service, closed at
midnight on Thursday, December 30,
and the preliminary count of the votes
has Just been completed. Three hum
dred and seven commercial organiza-
ton, chambers of commerce and
boards OF trade in forty-two states,
the District of Columbia, Hawaii and
the American chambers of commerce
in Berlin and Milan took part ih the
ballot. This is the tenth referendum
conducted by the chamber OF COM
merce of the United States with the
purpose OF ascertaining for the ben
eft of Congress and the executive the
business opinion prevailing through
out the country on questions Of ma
tional and immediate Importance.
There were 719 votes in favor OF the
committees findings and six votes
against it, each organization being en-
titled to from one to ten votes, &C
cording to its membership. These re-
suits have just been given out by Ell
hot II. Goodwin, the general secre7
tary of the national chamber,
OF Benefit TO Business Men.
As a result OF the affirmative vote
The national chamber now stands COM
mitted-and will work for-changes
which Z effected are expected to be
of benefit to business men through the
Strengthening OF the consular service,
Of which Wilbur j. Carr is director
in the department Of state-and the
bureau of foreign and domestic COM
merce. OF which DR.. Edward f. Pratt
is chief, in the department OF COM
merce.
An increase in staff and appropria-
tions for the Washington headquarters
Of the bureau Of foreign and domestic
commerce was favored by vote Of
ST5 to 10. There was almost the same
endorsement for the appointment Of
director of the field service and sep
arate appropriations for collection and
exploitation Of samples. the distribu.
tion of American literature abroad,
and more liberal travelling expenses.
The national chamber organizations
favored increased appropriations for
immediate and special investigations
New Commercial Attaches and Trdae
Commissioners.
A vote of S4S to 20 advocated the
appointment Of five new commercial
attaches and distinction between at
taches and trade commissioners. Com
niercial attaches and trade commits
sioners would perform substantially
the same, functions, but attaches
should be sent only to the more i'm
,,ortant countries in which the United
states maintains embassies and lega-

tons, while trade commissioners are
advocated for smaller countries or a
group OF countries and for the sub
ordinate dominions and colonies of
the great commercial nations. The
new commercial attaches, along with
one recommended to be transferred
from Australia, are intended to cover
Italy, Scandinavia, Spain, Austria,
Japan and Turkey. The creation of
the new position Of foreign trade COM
missioner and the appointment OF
commissioners to at least six coun-
tries abroad was favored by even a
larger vote. The countries in mind
for trade commissioners were Aus
tralia, where trade commissioner
would replace commercial at
tache, New Zealand, South Africa,
British India, Greece, the Balkan
states, East Indies and Central Amer
lea.
Special endorsement was given to
the matter of promoting commerce in
Latin America. 1t is generally be-
lieved that with the close of the Eu-
ropean war, we may be able to hold
against European competitors a good
ly proportion of the markets for
American products which we have
now gained in Latin American coun-
tries. The committee report which
the national chamber has just adopt
ed urges that the appropriation Of
$4,000 for 1916 should be substan-
TALLY increased.
! Evidently business sentiment was
in favor of the continuance Of the
present eight branch district offices
OF the bureau Of foreign and domes-
tic commerce under separate appro-
priation and not as at present out OF
the limited appropriation for the pro-
motion of commerce. The committee
recommended against the establish
ment OF additional branch district Of
fees, believing them to be unneces-
sary. The vote on this question was
847 In favor and thirty-eight opposed.
There was an endorsement OF the ap-
pointment and promotion of members
OF the field service in accordance with
the civil service law.
Needs OF Consular Service.
The largest vote was cast in favor
Of the Americanization Of the con-
sular service. adequate clerical as
sistance, elevation OF eleven consular
agencies to consulatcs and establish
ment OF fifteen consulates where
there are now no American consular
representatives of any sort, and more
adequate and frequent inspection of
consular Offices. Eight hundred and
seventy-seven votes were tabulated
for the affirmative and only eight
against the proposition. The com
niittee report in respect to the con-
sular service, which the national
chamber endorsed. advocated better
found. These were on the very cres,

four feet OF Berca was passed through.
