MUCH SMUGGLING

Dusseldorf, October 2.-It is a wonder
that the Cologne cathedral has not been
sold in the channels of Illicit trade. sar-
castically remarks a writer in the Berlin
Zeitung am Mittag, who has just made
a trip through the occupied districts and
asserts he has seen at first hands the
smuggling and tax evasion that go on
daily. He estimates that every train
into Germany from Frankfort and other
Rhineland cities carries several hundred
thousand marks worth of untaxed goods
ranging from tobacco and chocolate to
automobile tires.
Some of the Illicit traders, he asserts,

It was plain where the German stocks came from!
 Allied Blacklist Was
 Boomerang on Uncle Sam
 One American firm refused to per init an ad for Liberty bonds to be placed in it's window. Afraid of los ing German trade, they said Anoth- CT was caught selling goods to black listed firms. Three discriminating bills of lading were found. The man got off by making a $2000 contribution to the Red Cross. His profits were prob ably written in five or six figures.
 German drug stores in Mexico City last year, though blacklisted, sold American goods bought third hand, and cleared $600,000 Every day the blacklist was in ef- feet in Mexico the United States was the loser.
 1 went to Mexico with the idea that the trade war in that country would have to be directed against Germany. as soon as peace is signed.
 But 1 found that it will not be with Germans, who have hitherto been some of our best customers, but with our present allies = English and French
 I was informed on unimpeachable authority that both English and French salesmen secretly signed up blacklisted German firms with five year contracts for goods to be deliver ed when the lid was tipped. The con tracts were sent to Europe, the goods packed and made ready for shipment.
 The American salesman, attempting to secure this trade, will be met with the polite rebuff: We have ordered from France and England"
 The lifting of the blacklist a few days ago came just in time to prevent irretrievable American-Me Mexicap trade losses.

KOREA REVOLT LEADER IS REFORMED JAILOR

HONOLULU, May 10.-Dr Singman Rhee, leader in, the Korean independ- ence movement, has had an eventful career as a revolutionist and an ex- perience not unlike that of Paul, who converted his jailor to Christianity
 Dr. Rhee ran the first newspaper in Korea and advocated reforms that got him prison term of seven years. For seven mon .hs he was held in the stocks, and in that time accepted Christianity and began 70 preach to his fellow prisoners. with the result that he converted all of them and his jailors as well. He was educated in America after his release and went back to do Y. M. c. A. work in Seoul, but later went to Hawaii, because Korea was not safe for him and start ed school for Korean boys and girls.

NEXICO'S TRADE WEALTH IS READY FOR GARNERINC BY THE AMERICAN
 WHO WILL STUDY THE LATIN MIND

Ford has been invited to build five great tractor factories in Mexico. It is believed he will accept. Upon such things depends the production of raw materials.
 What Mexico Needs
 and Does Not Need.
 Mexico needs steel, glass, structural iron, sanitary and plumbing supplies, pumping plants, electrical machinery, textiles-from silk to cotton, leather goods-from shoes to harness, adding machines, typewriters, all office access sories and modern machinery for mills, road-building and street paying hardware, medicines, chemicals, and clothing of all kiRds.
 These are the products for which the Mexican market is very limited: jewelry, (eXcept watches), crockery, canned goods (except in the northern states), fruits, sugar, tobaccos, grains, rice, beans and such products of the soil as are abundant south of the Rio, Grande.
 Salesmen must understand that Mexicans often consider European goods. superior because Europe sells MeXlcO better qualltleS.
 Perhaps the greatest bar to Amer ican selling success. in Mexico is the demand for cash with orders ontdeliv- cry
 European merchants extend with the average order 30, 60 or 90 days credit. Reliable Mexican firms, and there are thousands of them, should be granted the same courtesy by Americans.
 l personally know of 37 great sugar mills which need plants worth some thing like S15,O00,0OO gold. American made plants should fill these orders.
 They probably won't Because
 The owners cannot pay cash down, and European manufacturers will sell on terms something like these: 10 per cent and freight down, with cost ot installation the first year; the re- mainder in five to nine years, giving mortgage on plant and plantation. If the European house can't swing the deal financially, government or priv ate banks will negotiate their paper and accept the mortgage
 Yank Financial Vision in
 Mexico Shortsighted.
 Why can't Americans do it? Short financial visionl i
 "Gringo" hating in Mexico is tra- dition upheld by fiction writers, propagandists and trade rivals. Let an American learn the psychology of the Mexican mind, act accordingly, and see how popular he becomes if he is a fair dealer.
 The German merchant, especially the hardware dealer, is factor in | Mexico's mercantile life Curiously enough he formerly patronized, almost exclusively, the American wholesaler. |
 During the war this German was on the blacklist Legitimate trade with him was impossible. What did the German do? I will tell you what one of the leading German merchants of the capital told me:
 Your blacklist hit us hard at first. | We had to buy through two or three. hands. Goods cost us an additional . 40 per cent. Towards the last we be- came more efficient We found Mex can firms, and some of your firms. who put money above patriotism, and | we bought through them paying an extra per cent"
 I spent day touring German stores. They were filled with Yankee pro- 1ucts. I went to a big American house and inquired for American-made goods I had seen in German stores. was informed: We are just out"

 MEXICO CITY, May 1O.-The latch string of Mexico's treasure house. it's riches hardly touched, is hanging out for the American investor, merchant and salesman who will do himself the favor of learning the Mexican's mode of living and thinking.
 An American salesman may be ultra successful in the United States and a perfect boob in the Mexican field. He may be a boob at home and a top- notcher down here. It depends on his understanding of Mexican character.
 For those who do understand, the sky is the limit
 Mexican consumption of our ma terial has been large, but could be doubled.
 A family worth S1OO,OOO here lives as well as the millionaire at home.
 And the demands of the peon, the man of the masses, who is being taught to live, are constantly increas- ing.
 To get this trade, two hard and fast rules must be observed:
 The merchant and manufacturer must be "squarei"
 The salesman, ''simpaticoi"
 Aggressiveness in Mexico is nor a virtue. Arrogance, an unpardonable sin.
 A square" merchant is one who delivers the quality of goods represent ed when sold, delivers them promptly and in good condition
 A 'simpatico" salesman is a good mixer, a good fellow, man possessed of patience, diplomacy polite ness.
 Essentials for Capture
 of Mexican Trade.
 If you are not "simpatico" you had better remain at home where polite ness is not so essential.
 If you expect to assume an ar of superiority and approach a customer. order book in hand, you are doomed. Nobody hurries in Mexico, not even to. catch a train.
 To land customer you must bide your time; await his pleasure; invite him out for drink (if you are an ab- stainer take water); take him to din ner; be solicitious about the welfare of his family. If there are children. little souvenir of your friendship is a great opener. If the merchant keeps your samples week or two off you have to call on him 20 times-dont fret; hide your impatience under smile.
 Greet him each time as though you had been absent for months. When he does order it's apt to be a carload maybe a trainload, and he will stick to you as long as you treat him well though he may be offered bette. In- ducements by rival house. 1 personally know an American salesman who had expected to tour Mexico in two months, was persuad- ed to work three months on one man, and-sold him 12 carloads of goods, [ 100 per cent more than he had ex- pected to dispose of in the entire re- public.
 Mexican exports depend largely on her imports from the United States. Today the country relies entirely on | this country for farming implements and high grade machinery. So great | is the call for farm tractors that Henry
