SEEMING on the Potomac Results in
No Large Hauls.

Fish market conditions at the 18th
street wharf show but little change
from those of last week, the supply of
choice fish being light, and frozen fish
from the New Jersey refrigerators are
being used to help in meeting the
fairly good demand. Some few rock,
perch and bunch fish are being re-
ceived from the haul seines in the
Potomac, but as yet the catch is light.
Receipts of shad and herring are good
for this early in the season and they
are rather low in price. This morn
ing the market was well attended by
buyers and prices ranged about as fol-
lows: Roe shad. 81 each; bucks, so
cents each: herring. SO hundred: Span
ish mackerel, 1914 cents pound: blue
pound; bass. Is to 16 cents pound; hall
but, II to IA cents pound: mudshad, az

bunch; pike, IL cents pound: frozen
butterfish and croakers, each, 5 cents
pound; large gray trout, frozen. cents
pound, and frozen whiting, 2k cents a
pound.
Oysters are much more plentiful than
they were a week ago, seven or eight
boats having arrived from river and
bay beds in the past thirty-six hours.
For the first time in two or three weeks
oysters from the bay beds are. fairly
plentiful. Prices range from about 45
to 80 cents a bushel.

Tells of Need of France,

Mr.. Berry has recently returned from
the French firing line to tell Ameri-
| cans of his first-hand knowledge, since
he has lived in Paris of late years, of
the terrible need behind the French
lines of surgically equipped automo-
biles. Mr.. Berry did not attempt to
conceal his emotion, other men plainly
| showed they shared his deep feeling
and women freely wept. while he told
in simple words of the tortures of the
wounded and the need for the surgical
ly equipped automobiles. He spoke of
the money raised at a similar concert
in New York, and ventured the predic-
ton that when accounts resulting from
the concert and the stimulation of in
terest in the fate of the French wound
ed are cast up 1t will be found that
Washington has done it's share toward
assisting the unfortunates on the
| French side in the war. Men freely
handed out five and ten dollar notes in
payment for souvenir programs 90 a
group of young women who are So
cially prominent in Washington, among
the latter being Miss Brice, Miss Lip
pincott, Miss lie Seure, Miss Perrin, Miss
Barry. Miss Stead, the Misses Delano,
Miss Harding, Miss Crosby, Miss Clover.
Wilson. Miss Hoar. Miss Eliot. Miss Nc
Clintock, Miss Raybaud, Miss Patten,

and others.
Mrs. William Corcoran Eustis is act
ing az treasurer of the fund that is be-
ing raised, and it was announced that
those who did not sign pledges yester-
day, which were distributed at the
meeting, are invited to mail checks
made out to her, to be sent to her at
her home, 1911 H street northwest.

Benefit of Small Business.

Some plan must be worked out by
the smaller American manufacturers"
he said, which will permit of their
forming of associations for creating
foreign demand for their products be-
fore they may hope to share more
largely the benefits of foreign trade"
The handicap which certain phases of
the antitrust laws place against Amer
lean export trade was discussed by Mr..
Montague. He said:
Our Sherman antitrust act, while
powerless to forbid any foreign COM
bination against US. nevertheless pur-
ports to regulate our entire foreign
commerce, and apparently denies to
our exporters every advantage of CO.
operative action to meet the condi-
lions of foreign trade. Our competi-
tors are encouraged by their govern
ments to unite in highly organized
combinations. Our exporters are every
where confronted by combinations of
foreign rivals organized to resist our
competition, and must often sell to
combina tons of foreign buyers equip
ped to depress the prices of our prod
ucts Under such a handicap our ex-
port trade has not even a fair sporting
chance.

The Necessary Qualifications.

Qualifications which men engaging in
foreign trade must possess were de-
scribed by DR.. Pratt as knowledge OF
languages, resourcefulness. adaptable
ity and diplomacy. European CONNER
cial methods, DR.. Pratt said, had devel-
oped these qualifications to a marked
extent in European business agents.
Salaries paid foreign trade represen-
tatives often are too low and the mar
in the home Office sometimes stands the
best chance of advancement said DR.
Pratt. This he thought should be
remedied.
The right kind of man with the RICH,
kind of training can only be induced
to go into foreign trade when there is
an adequate reward both in money and
promotion" he said. 1T seems to me
this is the very keynote of successful
training of men and it rests with the
employer to make it worth while for
men to properly equip themselves"

NEW ORLEANS. January 2S.-The

means of aiding the smaller manufac-
turer to proftab1y engage in export
trade were among the principal sub
jects for consideration by the delegates
at the second days sessions of the
third national foreign trade convention
her. Four sectional or group sessions
also were scheduled for late today, each
to deal with a particular phase of over
seas commerce as affecting interests
in the United States.
The program, embracing topics deal

addresses by Edwin F. Sweet, assistant
secretary of the Department of Com
merce, on 1.-The Government and the
Shipping Problem; Capt. Robert Dol
lar, San Francisco, on Development of
a National Shipping Policy; F. D. M.

natl, How the Smaller Manufacturer
May Share the Benefits of Foreign
Trade; Gilbert H. Montague, New
York. Export Trade and the Anti
trust Laws" and Henry Howard, Bos-
ton. Necessity for an American Dye
stuffs Industry
"Co-operative foreign effort would
keep our factories running at 100 per
cent of capacity" said Mr.. Oudin.
Since export cooperation would
lower the cost of distribution. and by
the added output, the cost of produc-
consumer in consequence would bene-
fit to the extent that the manufacturers
were able to reduce their unit cost"
The smaller American manufacturers
should be allowed to combine in order
to create a demand for their products
in foreign markets, according to Mr..
Smith.

storm of patriotic feeling sweep
| over a great audience at the New Ma
tional Theater late yesterday after
noon. when Nine. Emma Calve, tht
operate prima donna, sang The Mar
seillaise," the French national an
| them, as one Of the principal features
of a concert given to raise funds tc
assist in sending surgically equipped
automobiles to the firing line in
France. 1t was intended that she
should be accompanied by a chorus OF
10 voices of we'll known young women
of Washington. but many others
crowded onto the stage with them
eager to join in the battle hymn OF
the French republic, and as the famous
singer led in the stirring words of the
anthem from all over the theater men
and women Of all walks in life, diplo-
mats and walters, maids in private EN-
ployment and their mistresses. and
others swelled the volume of the cho-
rus until the big theater echoed with
the music.
The singing Of the "Marseillaise' came
as a climax at the end of the concert
Carlos Salzedo, the harpist who has just
been released from the French trenches
because of i'll health, after year OF
military service, presented the first num-
Der on the program, Variations OF a
Theme in the Ancient Style" on the harp,
and he was followed by Nine Calve, with
Gounod's Stances de Sapho' and other
selections.

In the second part of the program M.

Mime. Calve then sang the "Habanera,' -
from Carmen" for which she is known
all over the world. as we'll as two other
selections, Signor Gasparri then presenting
the aria from II Pagliacci" and an Italian
folk song Miss Wyman presented an
other group Of old songs. these being of
the "Marseillaise.'
Aside from the fact that the concert
was a musical event of the first i'm
portance. or the fact that it brought
together at the National Theater most
of those who are socially most promi-
nent in Washington residential and
diplomatic circles-for almost all of
those who are among the allies in the
war in Europe were there-the oc-
casion marked an event in the develop
ment of Franco-American relations,
which have existed since the revolution

was every evidence of the most pitt
full commiseration for the tragic fate
Of the wounded in the French trenches,
and some of the most pronounced and
feeling applause of the afternoon came

dress by Walter Van Rensselaer, Berry.

Need of Trained Men.

Trained men for foreign trade work
is one of the greatest needs confront
ing the American manufacturer seek
ing business abroad. was the opinion
expressed last night by DIR. Edward E
Pratt. chief of the United States bu-
reau of foreign and domestic COM
merce. in paper read before the con
vention. DR.. Pratt was unable to be
present.
"At this moment we are experiencing
serious shortage of men equipped
for foreign trade" said the paper. land
our foreign trade Is greatly handicap
ped. The problem before US is two
fold: To find men worth training for
foreign trade; and to train them.
I'VE must recognize the fact that
this country has not specialized in
foreign trade Our manufacturers and
exporters who are directly and largely
concerned in foreign trade have con-
stituted a comparatively small group.
Hence the demand for qualified men,
not having been widespread. has in the
past not aroused general interest. Too
many of the products we have exported
most largely have been raw materials
which practically sold themselves"

ON SECRET MISSION
(By Associated Press. J

Amsterdam, Netherlands, June 5.
at the request Of the United States
government as military attache Of
the German embassy at Washington,
and who has come to Holland on a
secret mission, has a purpose which
is three-fold, according to the Am
sterdam Telegram. This newspaper
does not mention Capt. Won Papen by
name but alludes to him as a first
class specialist who only recently ar
rived here after covering himself
with worldwide fame in the exer-
else of functions in another neutral

The Telegraaf says that the spec
ialist" has come here, first, to obtain
information of military and political
nature; second, to watch foreigners
residing or, visiting Holland; and
third. to endeavor to influence pub
lie opinion in favor of Germany.
The German "secret information
service" in Holland is being reorgan-
lied. the Telegraaf asserts, the ef-
forts of the specialist" along this
line being the centralizing of diverse
and scattered elements of the Teu-
tonic spionage servic in this country.

tective Service at The Hague and
progress has been made with the or

CHINESE PRESIDENT
URGED TO RETIRE
(By Associated Press. }

Peking, June j DR.. Nhr Ting
fang, former Chinese minister to the
united'States, has addressed letter
to Yuan Shi-kai urging him to re-
tire at once" from the presidency
rather than wait until more prov
inces have risen against the govern
ment" and "the clamor of of the
whole nation has become louder and
more irresistible" for him to abdi-
cate.
The prospect of restoring peace
by means of military strength" DR..
WI Ting-fang wrote, lis very
doubtful one. The prolongation of
the struggle may give rise to inter-
national complications which may
again result in the long-feared dis
ruption of the country
''The leaders such as Tsai 40,
Chih-chao and Tang Chi-Yao of the
anti-monarchical risings in the prov
inces are sincerely desrous of polit-
ical reforms and, being al men of
unimpeachable reputation, are not
bent upon self-respect as common
rebels and robbers are.
ITO resort to military force, sup
plies of munitions, money and men
must be obtained. The European war
preclude9 the possibility of purchas-
ing arms from abroad while the ca
pacity of manufacturing them at
home is very limited and the re-
serves now held will soon become ex-
hausted. The same handicaps may
apply to the question of funds as re-
gards foreign countries, while few
Chinese would care to subscribe to
any home loan at the present time
of crisis. AS to men, since the heart
of the people is already quite alien
ated the heart of the soldier will al
so become dieaffected.
Even assuming that a military
campaign may lead to results graft
flying to the government, the people
will then only fear but never love
their rulers. The loss of the peoples
affection would soon be followed by
an aggressive and insolent attitude
on the part of foreign countries.
DIR. Wu Ting-fang suggests that
President Yuan Shi-kai might make
tour throughout the world to study
the politics obtaining abroad" and
that "in consideration of his i'm
proved knowledge in politics the peo-
pie may again elect him as their
great president "
