GERMANY'S TRADE
PUZZLES AUSTRALIA
Not Easy to Control Export
Business.

MELBOURNE, Oct. 10.-Strong dis
agreement with Prime Minister Hughes's
declaration. made recently at a meeting
before the Nationalist Federation, that
he would never consent to trade between
Australia and Germany is expressed in
recent issue of the British AustraI-
asian.
The Journal says in part:
I'VE have no quarrel with those who
feel at this moment that they never
wish to see q German made article or to
trade with German again. It is Il
feeling from which we are not free our
selves, and those merchants and traders
who In spite of their own interests re-
fuse to enter into trade relations with
Germany deserve at least the credit of
sacrificing profit to sentiment, which is a
rare thing In the business world.
Nevertheless we assert most posi-
lively that an attempt to prevent Ger
man goods from entering Australia
would be impracticable. It would injure
Australian producers by depriving them
OF markets which. they need TO sell their
goods to the best advantage and II would
prejudice manufacturers by depriving
them OF various tools and raw materials
of which their competitors in other coun-
tries will make the fullest use that suits
them. America and other countries will
buy goods from Germany and some of
these will be imported into Australia
II Is ridiculous to suppose that In order
to oblige Australia these nations will
certify the origin OF everything they ex-
port, and therefore, II Australia puts a
permanent embargo upon German goods,
one result must be that these goods will
enter the Commonwealth, the buyer
there paying two profits upon them.
The first profit will go to the German
who exported them to England. America
or Holland, the second profit to the
Engllshman or American or Dutchman
who passed the goods on TO the Aus
trallan."

SIBERIAN HIDES
REACH AMERICA
Furs Included in $1,500,O00
Shipment, and Other Prod
ucts Are Coming.

Raw materials. consisting largely of
furs and hides. valued at $500, 900.
have been received in this country from
Siberia, according to statement made
yesterday to the American Committee
of Siberian Agricultural Cooperative
Unions by v. n. Bashkiroff, executive
representative of the Union of Siberian
Creamery Associations here. Other
material valued at s10.oo0.O0o is in
warehouses of the creamery associations
at Vladivostok awaiting shipments to
this country and England.
This shipment Is the first from the
enormous stores of raw material that
the Siberian peasants have been gather
ing during the last year and have ready
for export trade now. A large amount
of Siberian furs was placed on sale re-
Gently at St Louis and their quality
made them a favorite. Orders have al
ready been placed with the creamery
associations for larger quantities.
Other materials that the Russians
have in great abundance are horse and
cattle hides. bristles, horsehair, skins,
fax fibre and wool. Among these wool,
furs and hides make the large amounts.
The Omsk Government has been doing
everything possible to assist the associa-
tons In the development of their trade
with America and England and the sue
cessful sale of the first shipment here
Is received with great pleasure by the
representatives of the Creamery Asso-
Citations
OFFICES OF the American branch of the
association have been opened in New
York and Boston and consignments Of
materials en- route for these Iilaces
from Seattle and Vancouver The as
slstance of the American Government
has been promised In any difficulty in
shipping raw materials after their ar
rival in this country.
Credit amounting to 5000, 900 was
recently granted the Siberian Creamery
men by the United States War Depart
ment. This money will be used to a great
extent in the buying of agricultural and
dairy machinery for export into Russia
in order to assist the Russian peasants
n. enlarging their output and developing
their farms. Other products of the
Creamery Associations are butter and
cheese. which may be shipped here in
large amounts as the trade develops be-
tween the two nations

FAR EASTERN TRADE NOTES.

While before the war the commerce
between Japan and the Argentine Re
public hardly reached s250,0p annually.
last year It exceeded S15,006,000. 1t is
said that the recently created Japanese
Legation In Buenos Ayres Is doing much
to arouse interest In commercial circles
In the merchandise of Japan and also
to provide a market In japan for such
Argentine products as can be disposed of
there to advantage.
The ruby mines of Burma. India, have
been severely handicapped In their
operations during the fiscal year ended
February, 1919. by a shortage of labor
and the higher cost of materials. The
value of stones mined was s215,098 as
against $244,09 in 1917-18. Since the
beginning of the present year, however,
tlere has been an increased demand for
rubles and the prices have also risen.
