WORLD NEEDS GOODS
American Industry Is Able to Sup.
ply Part Of Requirements

There is no denying the worlds need
for goods. nor the ability of the indus
try of the United States to supply a
part of that need. The adjustments
vet to be made are many. But they are
the concern Of statesmen and tinanciers I:
they are problems in government and
mathematics. and not in production and
consumption. The productivity Of the
world is admittedly higher than before
the war. and its earning power and buy
ing power are greater.
The conditions of trade may be
changed by the rules of government, but
the needs of peoples are permanent.
And, as has been pointed out, the figures
issued by the Bureau of Foreign and
Domestic Commerce of the United
States. indicating the great growth of
the export trade of the nation. give lit
tie apparent reason for any perma-
nent depression.
In spite of all the uncertainties of
the reconstruction period. in spite Of
the embargoes and restrictions, in spite
of the falling price of commodities and
the lack of ships, the export for Febru
ary reached total of S5S7 900, 900.
This indicates total for the fiscal year
ending June 20 Of no less than SO, 800, =
600 900. which surpasses by more than
two hundred millions the total for 1917,
the record year etofore.-Guaranty

MUST PLEASE TASTES
OF SOUTH AMERICANS
Trade Opportunities Large if
Manufacturers Meet Desires,
Says Correspondent

Manufacturers and wholesalers in
terested in trade opportunities in South
America will find plenty Of room for
expanded business south of the equator
if they will try to supply the kind of
goods residents of Latin American
countries desire, according to a letter
received by the EVENING PUBLIC
LEDGER from c. l.. Arthur, of San
tiago. Chile.
One of the chief things for considera
tion, in the opinion of Mr. Arthur, is
the necessity of offering goods that
please the people rather than trying
to sell to them without regard to their
tastes.
Mr.. Arthur's letter says in part:
"Your article Wanted, Real lnfor-
nation of Latin America, was read
with much overwhelmingly we got
home papers once in so often.

principal cities of S. A., ] heartily

ITO obtain this information it would
seem necessary to commission some one
to study with one definite object in
view What and how can we sell to
Latin America.
1T is true we have many agents here
from the states who come to sell this
or that particular line, but generally
the goods are manufactured without very
much consideration as to what would
please the people of this country. 1t is
true also that our government sent spe-
cial agents to the countries of South
America. each with a specific duty-to
study the commercial situation and

exports by years, and is not sufficient
for the prospective exporter.

pected if some effort is not made to pro
duce effects that will please the tastes of
the South American people, in fact

WAR INSURANCE SOON
TO Be PERMANENT
Government in Few Weeks Will
Convert Policies Aggregat-
ing $35, 900, 100000
GENEROUS TERMS OFFERED
Bv a StdG Correspondent

Washington, April 14.-The policies
have been engraved. the premium rates
fixed and the government has every
thing now ready to begin in about
four weeks converting the 4,2500, 900
war term insurance policies issued on
the lives Of the soldiers, sailors and
marines into various kinds of perma
nent life insurance such as now issued
by the private insurance companies.
An idea Of the magnitude of the
task ahead of the war risk insurance
bureau may be obtained when it is
known that of the 5000, 900 or more
men who enlisted during the war about
4,250, 900 took out life insurance poll :
cies totaling $35, 900, 900, 900. That is
as much ordinary life insurance as
there was outstanding with ALL the
life insurance companies in the world
at the beginning of the war.
The war term insurance carried by
the fighting men may be converted in
whole or in part, any time within the
next five years into ordinary life,
twenty payment life,' thirty payment
life, twenty year endowment, thirty
year endowment or endowment matur-
ing at the age of sixty two.
The premiums to be charged by the
government are about 20 per cent lower
all along the line than those charged
for the same form Of insurance by the
insurance companies. The government
oil k.A 80 l,,,,y
istration usually charged to policy
holders and will extend all the usual
conversion advantages and several not
offered by the companies.
These low rate insurance policies,
with the special disability Clause and
other advantages, are to be offered also
In future to those who may enlist or be
commissioned in the army or navy, if
application is made within 120 days
after such enlistment or commission.
One important feature of the govern
ment insurance not extended by any of
the insurance companies is that pro-
viding that whenever the policyholder
becomes totally and permanently dis
abled, payment of premiums shall cease.
dnd he shall receive, regardless of his
age, monthly installments of 1915 per
$1,000 of insurance. for the entire
period of total disability for life.
In event of death all policies are
payable to the beneficiary in 240
monthly installments. Policies sur =
rendered for paidu insurance. how :
ever, are payable at death in one lump
sum-, and endowment policies are pay
able to insured at maturity in the same
manner.
The premium rates will be based on
the age of the insured at the time the
conversion is made.
