sive plans for expansion of the de-

mands Of postwar foreign trade pro-
motion are outlined in the annual
report of the department of commerce
sent to congress by Secretary Red
field today.
New commercial attaches, travelling
and resident trade commissioners and
statistical experts galore are needed,
Redfield said, if the interests of the

looked after in foreign countries. In
asking for an appropriation, greater
by S25 900, 900, than the apporpria-
ton this year, the commerce secre-
tary declared. at is regrettable the
work Of the department is not per
mitted to expand as rapidly as the
nations interests require, because of
"a lack of funds"
Redfeld recommends that new COM
mercial attaches should be sent to
foreign capitals: Athens, Rome, Mad
nd, Ottawa, Mexico City and Santi-
ago, Chile.
Additional resident trade commits
sions should be established In Swe-
den, Norway, Great Britain, France.
Greece, Switzerland, Russia Mexico,
Venezuela, Bolivia. Uruguay, Brazil,
Colombia. Dutch East Indies, China,
Philippine Islands. British India.
Japan, Malay peninsula, Egypt South
Africa, Australia and New Zealand.
Congress is asked also to consider
increases in pay for the commercial
representatives abroad.

terminate at present. Demand for
more than reparation is the only pos
sible subject for differences OF opin-
ion
president Wilson is likely to ask
the allies to adopt measures enabling
Germany to maintain her economic
liberty, which the allies will accept.
But, concerning the league OF nations,
Germany should enter period OF
probation before she Is admitted to
full membership. The changes in Ger
man political conditions cannot be &C
cepted as proof OF her good faith
Time only will tell.
I'VE feel natural reserve regard

should be hard to settle.
I'VE shall not try to change any OF
President wilson's views, some OF

give rise to various interpretations.
These undoubtedly will be cleared up. =
