NEW ORLEANS HAS NATIONAL FOREIGN
 TRADE CONVENTION
Desire of American Busi- ness for a National For eign Trade Policy,
 Says Farrell

New York, January 23.-The third na- tonal foreign trade convention at New Orleans Thursday Friday and Saturday of this week will have 700 accredited delegates in attendance, in addition to many invited guests, according to a statement tonight by James A. Farrell, chairman of the National Foreign Trade Council, under the auspices of which the convention will be held.
 ''The desire of American business men for truly national foreign trade pol icy," said MT. Farrell lis indicated by the large response to the National For eign Trade Councils call for the con- vention. This gathering is timely, be- cause those who are engaged in oversea commerce and those who find that a foreign outlet for their products both natural and manufactu is necessary to continued prosperity, should seriously and constructively discuss ways and means to meet the competition which may be expected to prevail in world mar kttS dllef tio WdI. | udl eNpld1nS why commercial preparedness' has been made the motto of the convention.

DELEGATE SITUATION

Uneasiness over the Mexican situation. which stirred Congress. has greatly abated and probably will not be revived soon unless sensational developments oc- cur in Mexico Administra tion leaders regard the danger or being forced into difficulties with the Carranza govern ment ayerted for the present and even republicans of the Senate have concluded not to force the, issue of intervention to a vote at this time. Senator Borah, one of the foremost believers in the necessity of military action in Mexico by the United States. has decided that there is nothing to be done at this time.
 Democratic leaders in both houses ex- pect Mexican speeches to be made now and then as a matter of course, but they are satisfied that the situation is in their control for the present at least. Some time during the week Representative Humphrey of Washington expects to make a speech assailng the administra- tion's Mexican policy. It also is probable that President Wilson's reply to the Sen ate in which a mass of detail regarding Carranza and Mexico will be included, will serve to arouse interest of Congress again. It is probable that this reply will

BLOCKADE OF 1861

MT. President, we had a war over here between the states not very many years ago as history goes, a great many years ago as the ordinary individual life goes, and what did your people do to mine? Was it your army that whipped us? You know it was not. If it had not been for the women and children and men whom you starved to death and the soldiers who could no longer wear uniform and shoot. because they had nothing to eat, I inn agine we might have been fighting yet.

Washington, January B. President Wilson $ determina- tion to talk to the people of the middle west on national pre- Iparedness has restored that issue as the uppermost subject IOf discussion in Congress. For several weeks preparedness has

ALWAYS UNFAIRNESs

Here follows an excerpt which com prises the gist of the speech of Senator Williams:
 MT. President, the senator from Mime sota CMr. Nelsopl,s with, his usual good, hard, sound common sense has said sew eral things well worthy of remembrance, and especially this one thing, that there never was war in the world between two or more gerat powers possessing land or sea strength when the rights of neu- trals were strictly respected
 MT. President we carried on war with France once when neither the French republic nor the American republic ever declared war, but the forces of the two countries were fighting one another upon the high seas, because the French repub-
 lie, under the control of the convention, had defied every international law known up to that date.
 Not long after that Great Britain, join ing in with Prussia and with Austria, the continental powers, in making war upon the French republic, violated nearly every right of neutrality the world had ever rec ognized by international law.
 MT President, in all these troubles this one and the previous trouble-there has been this marked distinction that goes to the heart of every man who has a heart. There was class of hostilities and troubles that threatened and sacri- feed our property.
 There was class of hostilities and troubles that threatened and sacri- ficed lives. Although I am not a great admirer of the ex-President of the Uni- ted States, MT. Roosevelt, and never have been in political sense, though his relations and mine personally have always been pleasant he has said one thing that l, as least, think to be true, that any comparison between what the United States owes to her citizenship
 in connection with the sacrifice of life and what she owes to her citizenship in connection with the sacrifice of property is comparison between re- sentng murder and resenting petit lar ceny. That utterance of Roosevelt is worth sinking into all your minds, and ..l-

I COLD WEATIIER AFFECTS
TIE STORAGE BATTERY

In winter ,nore than any other tiniv
of the year. the motorist should give
his storage battery special attention.
Discussing the problem of winter
care of storage batteries, the Willard
expert said:
an winter the storage battery ls
called upon to do about twice as much
work as in summer. The lights are
used a great deal more and the engine
usually starts a great deal harder liz
winter than in summer because car
burotion is more difficult. The bat
terry has to supply power for both OF
these--for both the starting and the
lighting.
THE average motorist does not run
his car as far nor as fast in winter as
In summer so the generator does not
get the opportunity to restore the
energy used in cranking and lighting
The result is that II the motorist is
not careful the battery slowly loses
its charge.
"Since a discharged battery freezes
at about twenty degrees above zci o,
freezing can best be avoided by kee9-
ing the battery fully charged.
"The chief points in the winter care
OF the battery for the motorist to re-
member are: First, test the battery
frequently with a hydrometer; second,
conserve the power as much as posi- %
BILE; and third, keep in touch with the
service station.
"The hydrometer will show infal-
libby whether the battery is ruly, being
kept fully charged-that Is, whether
the generator is restoring as much
energy to the battery as is being used.
"Priming the engine before start
ing it will spare the battery a great
deal of work This ought to he done
every morning IN winter before the
car Is taken out Lights should he
used as sparinsly as possible.
"Of course the battery should be
kept filled with distilled water.
"By keeping in touch with the serv-
ice station the motorist gives the bat
terry mar a chance to look his battery
over and in this way trouble is rene
died before it gets a chance to become
serious"
The Willard Storage Battery COM
panys booklet on Winter Care
ought to be Of great interest TO all
motorists because II states the diff
ferent points In winter care very
clearly Any motorist can have this
book by asking for 1t at the service
