One OF the questions which are
asked when plans Tor the develop

under consideration, is why IL is not
possible for business men from the

their products without discussing
the matter with bankers. why
should not Americans sell in Argen-

they do here7 Why should there

South American method OF doing
business IL entirely different from
the methods that are followed In the
United States. Here most business
men pay their bills on the first OF
the month. In South America, how
ever. there is universal insistence
upon 60 and 90-day credits. one OF
the biggest problems being consider
