INCREASING OUR
 FOREIGN TRADE
By HOLLAND

New York, February H.-(Special) James A. Farrell, president of the United States Steel corporation, and George A Gaston, an international merchant or great achievement agree on the necessi- ty, if prosperity is to be maintained and increased in the United States, of talk ing advantage of present day opportuni- ties for increasing our foreign trade. President Farrell looks at the oppor- tunity from one point of view. MT. Cas- ton regards it from a different viewpoint, but there is no disagreement between them respecting the fact that wonder ful opportunity is opening to the United States for the increase of our interna- tional trade Upon another point they are also in agreement, for they believe that a state of mind that resembles pes simsm seems to prevail in the United States, meaning apparently that this is reflected in the action of the securities market. On the other hand, they do not differ in their view of the demand which other nations of the world are sure to mako upon the United States for many
 kinds of commodities, not only food, but manufactured products.

 There was no significance to our meeting today" Rickard said.

 Rickard tonight started for Fort Worth, Tex, in connection with some oil business. He said his trip had no connection with selection of site for the fight He declared he had received many bids. some of which were favor able beyond expectations, but that the arena would not be chosen until every consideration had been given all bids, which probably will be several weeks. Willard came to Chicago from Kan sas City, where he disposed of his re- maining circus equipment for $41,oOO. The champion is now free to prepare for the contest. q expect to start light training with 1T. a couple of weeks" Willard said.
