Exhibit Motor Express.

At the monthly meeting Of the
Washington Automotive Trade Asso-
citation at the City Club last night it
was decided to hold a monster truck

association voted to contribute $500
for necessary circular advertising
and prizes.
A committee consisting of Messrs
Rayner. Gunner, Forst, Dugan, Lau-
dick, Leary, Prendegast, Leroy Mark
and Jones was appointed by the chair
to formulate plans for the success of
the undertaking.
These transportation demonstra-
tions, which are the outcome of the
"ship-by-truck" movement, are now
being staged in most all of the large
cities, and are merely outside indica-
tions of the tremendous interest
spreading over the entire country in
motor truck express. The govern :
ment is keenly interested in the new
development in transportation, and
boosting it strongly.
No expense will be spared by the
different local truck representatives
to make the parade a success, and
with an expected large showing of
government trucks in line, together
with the gay decorations, it is claimed
will make sight well worth seeing.
The outing Of the association to
Marshall Hall will be held on the
afternoon of June 10. The boat leav-
ing the 9TH street dharf at 2:30 pm.
Each member is entitled to take one
guest. Athletic games and contests

grounds the boat will return to

ton. The scheme proposes interna-
tionalization of labor to such an ex-
tent in the opinion of this senator as
to deprive the American workingman
hitherto enjoyed in respect to his
own welfare.
The plan is conceived. 1t is assumed.
to elevate la bor conditions in other
countries to the American plane. but
fl Is feared that It might operate to
reduce the American standard. 1t Is
argued that the balance of power in
the international labor conference
will rest with the competitors of the
American working man. who will out

MR.. REDF|ELD SEES
TRADE AS SERVICE
Tells Pan-Americans Use as
Cloak for Selfish Aims
Kills Permanency.
EXCESS u. S. PROSPERITY

Extension of commerce should not
be used as a cloak for extension of
political power and dominion, Secre-
tary of Commerce Redf1eld declared at
the meeting of the commercial confer
ence of the Pan-American Union this
morning. The Secretary pointed to
the collapse of Germany as an ex-
ample of the fate that is reserved for
selfish ambition in the affairs of the
world.
At present the United States is suf
fering from an overdose of prosperity
which she should unselfishly share
with the rest of the world, and par
ticularly with the members of the
Pan American Union, Secretary Red
field said. He warned against seeking
industrial expansion merely for the
purpose of enriching those who seek
it. Unless the seller and the buyer
mutually benefit, permanency cannot
be guaranteed, and without permanent
cy there is no real values in CONNER
cial expansion, the Secretary said.
Mr.. Redfield said the time was at
hand when South and Central America
would find ready sale for their bonds
in the United States. These could be
accepted as bases for credit and would
result, if properly used. in the estab-
1ishment of trade relations of d per-
manent character.
