 FOR TRADE INCREASE
American Efforts to Build Up
 First Class Marine Watched

Para, Brazil, Sept. Correspond ence of the Associated Press. )-Thcre were twelve steamers today at the docks of the port of Parl, the gate way of the Amazons." Commenting upon this unprecedented activity the Estado says it is a long time since such mOVeme ent of commerce has been seen in this harbor. Brazilans have been looking forward to an increase in trade with the United States and it was a matter of keen regret that only one of the twelve steamers was Amcr- ican. Four were British and seven SraHilian. The American vessel will be here a, long time. She is the dis caXi.
 Americans in South America feel. 1t is said that notwithstanding the stories of wonderful progress in Amer acan shipbuilding during the war, in spring tales of smashed records in rivet driving, and finished ships being turned out in marvellous time at mush- room yards on the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific coasts, 1t is probably true that "hnSte does not make speed" An American was heard to ask today as ho looked at the flags flying from tn" nasts of a dozen vessels: Are we being left at the post?"
 Henry $. Fleming, a New York enri- ncer, has just arrived here from Liver pool. He says that at each of the four ports at which his steamer touched he saw American steamers in d disabled condition.
New Britain herald., 1919-09-05

At LciXaocs. the port for Oporto, Portugal, he said there were two American ships in a disa COndi- tion; one was a shipping board steam CT the other one of the wooden ships built during the war rush. At Lisbon there was a shipping board steamer being repaired. At Fun chal, Madeira, there was a privately owned Americon steamer being patched up. And upon his arrival here he saw the "Topo- CaNi.'
 Rumors of similar condition in other ports, he said, do not argue well for American efforts to build Up a first-class merchant marine. Among the comment and questions heard during a discussion of tho situation were these:
 "What Is tho matter with the new ships being built and with those being handed over by the Shipping Board to private cartcrers? Are they being duly inspected before being handed

were communicated and ordered sold at reduced prices, preciptate unusual SomcrNaultS of trade, but the widest ScrambleS were in the shoe stores Hero the demand for shoes produced scenes of the widest disorder.
 In Rome, Milan, ForH Bologna and Naples the search for shoes con tinucd many days. The struggles in each city were so great that few law abiding persons tried to procure shoes. There appeared 10 be no pre- text for fitting anyone. Shoes were handed out in boxes and tho buyers took them seemingly not caring whether they fitted or not just so they were on the basis Of a fifty per cent reduction in price It was a. common sight 10 sec d man loaded up with shoes for his entire family
 TO obtain admission to a shoe store was fully as difficult aS buying a ticket for d World Series baseball game For hours the Shoc-hunters would wait in long lines guarded by soldiers and police before they were finally admitted into tho storeroomS. Shoe merchants fixed two hours in the morning and two hours in the after noon for the opening of their stores, but the long line was waiting for shoes several hours before the sched- ulod time arrived
 Impatonco on the part of the crowds caused, in most cases, the summary scizing of goods and the re- sort to ranSaCkinG. Food stores were treated first in this way, but the law lCSSneSS soon spread to clothing and shoe shops. Stores ranSacked would be depleted of every commodity, eat able, Wcarablc or portable. There were examples in Spczia of carrying out all the commodities, loading them in a motor truck and taking them some four or five miles outside the city for distribution. Whole hogs heads of wine were rolled out of the city in this way and distributed.
 It seemed aS if the mobs had desie- mated for them the stores to be loot ed. There were apparently the most systematic pillaging of those accused of war prOfiteerinE. Merchants known to have violated governmental rcgu-
 lations by selling prohibited articles during tho war, were treated in the same way.
 Soldiers sent to restore order in some Cases were charged with accept ing gifts from the rioters and at other times filling their pockets with eatables, including biscuits, fruits, nuts and chocolate.
 The new situation created by the arbitrary communicating and fixing l Of prices is now beginning to react l Storekeepers are refusing to run their businesses on the lew basis while 1 there Is evidently a general shortage i throughout the various cities affected 1 by the new economic changes Many l Well-tO-do families who have always been law abiding have found them selves suddenly unable to buy food Some merchants have closed their shops and gone to summer resorts In the hope that when summer ends the eruption will have subsided and there will be return to normal conditions

Leaking steamers, besides refectinG on our national shipbulding efforts mean damaged merchandise and re- sultant lack of confidence in Ameri- can-made goods; such a condition re- suits in definite setback to our ef~ forts to build up foreign trade on a permanent basis"

tive teams have decided otherwise, |
