direction of Trade i'm
Great Britain

LONDON, June 6-The United
States must buy more foreign securi-
ties and goods if the prices at which
American goods at the present rate of
exchange must sell in foreign countries
are to be competitive, the American
Chamber of Commerce in London says
in its summary of industrial and COM
mercial conditions in Great Britain
during May. The shortage of tonnage
continues to keep American goods from
the British market.
The British Board of Trade, it is
added, was attacked in Parliament re-
garding its failure to decide on firm
export and import restriction policy.
This is one of the causes of uncer-
tainty making the resurrection of trade
difficult. The governments spokesman
in reply said he hoped to announce a
definite policy when peace is signed.
He declared that the state of exchange
would be the ruling consideration.
The magufacturers of the United
Kingdom, the summary continues, have
requested the government to give ef-
feet to its declared policy of perfec-
ton to the key industries in order to
prevent dumping. The summary adds:
Import restrictions on typewriters,
rubber goods, soap, vacuum cleaners
and musical instruments Except organs
and pianos) were removed A further
relaxation on American boots and shoes
is considered likely. No further con-
cession on automobiles is expected
until September l at the earliest.
"Oficial figures from the Ministry of
Shipping show that the worlds total
pre-war tonnage was 48,O0O,OOO the
share of Great Britain being 18,5OO,0OO
and the United States 100000. At
present the world tonnage is 36,500,00O,
with Great Britain having 100000
and the United States 6,40O,000.
The trades unions have refused to
take over the national shipyards at
Chepstow on the ground that the offer
made was not fair and that the capital
lists already had refused an offer from
private interests. The question is still
open.
AN imperial preference policy was
introduced in the 1919 budget Refer
ence also will be given by the Treasury
10 capital issues in the Dominiona, par
tlcularly when contractors will buy raw
materials from British producers. The
Dominions also will be favored in
awarding government contracts
Labor bills establishing minimum
wage and forty-eight hours weeR in
industry are being drafted by the labor
ministry. The bill restoring pre-war
practices in industry within two
months Of passage already has passed
second reading.
"The number Of unemployed is de-
creasing slowly. Goa production is
dropping and shortage is feared,
both for industry and for export.
American steel is undertaking British
steel in the United Kingdom. The Lam
cashire cotton trade is picking up.
Light grain crops are expected on ac-
count of the drought and the fruit
crops are uncertain"

the result Of the falling off of her ex-
port trade after the war closed. The
increased demand for coffee, which is
bound to result from national prohibi-
tion and the prevailing high prices for
coffee will do much to stimulate Bra
lillian trade. This years coffee crop is
the smallest that Brazil has known for
twenty years--a factor in keeping
prices up to the top-notch. The pub
licity campaign of the Brazilian coffee
growers in the United States now is
getting into full swing. All in all, the
coffee trade is booming as it never has
before.
The shipping situation is much i'm
proved. The decided increase in the
merchant marine is the outstanding
feature. The Shipping Board is re-
leasing ships fairly rapidly now, and
these are being put into service on the
established routes or upon new ones
which are being established to meet
new needs. Seven vessels, with a min
imum speed Of seventeen knots, are
to be put into service ON line to
South American ports sailing from
Southern ports. The tremendous in
crease in exports has made it neces-
sary to use hitherto neglected ports.
Shipping from Southern ports means
great saving in shipping and freight
costs on many products. A case in
point is that of a Japanese naviga-
tion line which plans to establish a
service from New Orleans for shipping
Pittsburgh steel to Japan, thus saving
the heavy costs of the transcontinental
haul. If saving can be effected here
it is even more possible in the case of
cotton and other Southern products
which are to be exported.
The whole trade situation, domestic
and foreign, seems to be regaining its
equilibrium gradually, and it is gen.
orally considered that once the treaty
is signed the swing back to normal
conditions will take place as rapidly
as is compatible with the complex con-
ditions of the reconstruction period.

Asserts Traveller
Feeling Is Strong Against
Germany, Says Boston
Man; ssY" Secretary
Tells of Work in India

The Lamport & Holt liner Vauban,
which will sail for South America
within a few days, booked to capacity,
arrived here yesterday from Liverpool
under charter to the Cunard Line. She
carried 259 saloon and 1876 second
cabin passengers.
Among the travellers on board was
Charles A. Hanley, of Hanley, Morgan
q Co, Of Boston, who is said to be
the first American business man to
enter Constantinople, Greece and Al
bania after the signing of the armis-
tice.
THE business houses and the peo-
pie of Turkey generally" he said, re
gret that she ever entered into any
national agreements with Germany.
! Wherever l went in Asia Minor there
was a strong feeling against Germany
and desire to transfer all the bust
ness and general trade that they had
had with Germany to American busi-
ness houses. The Turk. has a high
regard for America and Americans, and
is anxious that trade relations between
Constantinople and ports of the United
States be renewed at once. Wherever
went | was treated with great re-
spect and courtesy just because l was
an American. Food is plentiful in Tur-
key. Economic conditions in Greece
are not good, but l saw no evidence
there Of distress or general hardship
among the people"
Another passenger on the Vauban
was x. C. Paul, national secretary of
the Y. NJ. c. A. in India, whose head
quarters are in Calcutta. He said that
the 'Y" had established IT'S cooperative
banks, in small towns as we'll as in the
larger cities, and that they had saved
the people from the gouging of money
lenders, who charged from 4S to SO
per cent for loans. The people of
India, he SAID, had been held down by
being constantly in debt, from which
they had little or no chance of becom-
ing freed because of the usurious in
terest rates. Mr.. Paul returned from
India to attend conference of secre-
taries of the "Y" engaged in foreign
service.

China Unable to Check
Anti-Japanese Boycott
Movement Spreads to Vladivos-
tok; Retaliatory Trade
War Threatened

PEK1NG, June s (By The Associated
Press).-The Chinese government is.
unable to stem the tide of the Japanese
boycott movement which is being
pushed by the school and college stu
dents. The bankers, merchants and
workmen in Shanghai, South China, are
lending their support to the movement
which adds to the agitation.
The government decided to release
the students arrested several days ago.
but the students decline release unless
the Chief of Police publicly apologies
for the arrests.
Demonstrations in favor of the how
colt movement continue without re-
striction. Leaders are endeayoring tn
obtain instruction in the manufacture
of articles imported from Japan so
that they can be manufactured in.
China
SAN FRANCISCO. June s.-The
anti-Japanese agitation among the
Chinese has spread into -Vladivostok,
according to a cablegram from Toxic.
The Chinese merchants at VlaHivo-
stok, who are dissatisfied with the
terms Of settlement of Shangtung, have
declared boycott against all the ia
panese articles of merchandise. The
Chinese merchants at Harbin and
Blagoviechinsk have taken similar ac-s
ton. A curious feature of the present
agitation is that the Japanese mer-7
chants and people residing at those
points are about to declare trade
war against the Chinese in retaliation
