AMERICAN MANUFAC-
TURERS HAVE VERY
ATTRACTIVE future
Dodge Brothers Travelling Represen-
tative Returns After Long So
journ in Foreign Lands.

Having sailed the seven seas" al
most continuously since 1914, withou
sign or sight of Hun raider or subma
rine, E. G. Willems, Dodge Brothers
travelling representative, has JUS
reached Detroit from South America
Mr.. Willems brings word that thu
, greatest obstacles to world bushes.
today are lack Of freight facilities anc
gasoline, and total or partial embar.
goes in all parts Of the world. He
predicts vast enlargement Of Amer.
lean world business after the war, but
in the face of keen and highly organ.
lied competition from several quar-.
tiers.
He says that American business has
made considerable progress in South
America during the period Of the war,
and that the establishment of branch
banks has done a great deal to pro-
mote North American interests in the
nations to the south of us. As he sees
the situation, manufacturers in the
United States have now the best OPP
portunity in their existence to take
legitimate advantage of the South
American needs.
"North American business men
should understand" Mr.. Willems says,
chat the representatives they send to
South American business houses
should be equipped with good work
ing knowledge and command of Span
ish. A French scholar is at an adj
vantage in South America, because
nearly everybody Of the intellectual
class also speaks French. Represen-
tatives should have clear conception
of the Latin temperament, and defer
to Latin customs as far as necessary"
Since 1914 Mr.. Willems has visited
Australia, New Zealand, India, the
Dutch East Indies, the Philippines,
China, Japan, South Africa, Rhodesia,
Portuguese East Africa, Senegal, Ma
deira, Portugal, Spain, Great Britain
and South America. In Portuguese
harbor he visited the yacht Nokomis-
now designated merely by navy SYM
bol-turned over to the United States
at the beginning of the war by Horace
E. Dodge. She was well camoufaged
and we'll armed, her drawing room
urned into machine shop, carrying a
United States naval crew of 103, and
was flagship of flotilla engaged in
war work in the blockade zone.
In July, 1917, Mr.. Willems sailed on
a troopship from New York for Lon
don, arriving there with one of the
very first contingents Of Yanks who
set foot on British soil. Among them
was Kermit Roosevelt, who later serv-
ed with the British in Mesopotamia,
and is now in the American army.
Mr.. Willems intended to return to the
United States from Spain early this

year, but was unable to do so because
of the cancellation of passenger sail
ings to the United States, and went
to South America instead, returning
from there.
Mr.. Willems had cancelled a pas
sage on the Getty Of Athens" from
New York to South Africa, to 60 to
Capetown via England. The Getty of
Athens" was sunk on that very voyage
almost in sight of Capetown harbor.
Mr.. Willems, on that very voyage, via
London to Capetown, passed twice
through the war zone, but was not
disturbed by the slightest incident.

tons must he received at the average
rate of over S3l5,000,00o for each OF the
nineteen business days IN the campaign,
and yet up to date subscriptions are
being received at only about onc-half

Nv hilc ! am confident that the Amer

enormous task now before them, desire
10 urge every one not only to subscribe

The campaign is handicapped by two
factors the first being the unfortunate
