CHINESE IN TRADE
WAR ON JAPAN NOW
Extension Of Boycott 10 Planned
After February 20-oaiiy
Loss Heavy.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. OF the
Chinese boycott against Japanese
goods is planned. beginning imme-
diately after the Chinese new year.
on February 20.
The recent offer Of the Japanese
government to open negotiations on
the Shantung question indicates
that Japan is growing weary Of the
daily loss, estimated at more than
$1,000. 900. The proposal for ne
gotiations also shows China has .
chance to gain it's demands, and
student and patriotic organizations
now propose to clinch the advan-
tage by an effort to sweep Japanese
goods from the Asiatic mainland.
Heretofore it had been feared the
universal boycott might cause q
panic. as Chinese merchants held
large Japanese stocks, but the
goods now largely are. disposed Of.
and French, American and British
goods will be favored as replace
ments.
The latest figures show American
owned boats constitute 43 per cent
Of those at Shanghai in recent
weeks, which is a tremendous
growth. pushing England to second
place with 80 per cent.

PARIS.-"France has stopped buy
ing American goods" said Judge w.
R. v. Berry. president of the Ameri-
q Chamber Of Commerce in France.
"but 1t is not by any means a boy
cott Far from it. III
'"The reason France is not import
ing American products is due solely
to the exchange rate-a dollar for is
francs today, a rise Of 300 per cent
above normal.
Before the war France bought q
little more from America than she
sold to US, but the difference was
more than made up by the American
tourists. who bought much, and spent
much in France each year. But dur
ing 1919 France bought exactly IA
times more from American than she
sold to the United States. It will
be a long time before exchange ever
returns 10 the prewar rate. 1t may be
25, years. Meantime the French must
economize; must produce more and
buy less. u
Next Two Years Critical.
"Alsace-Lorraine will help some.
For instance, in December France
sold 10000 francs worth of potash
from the Mulhouse mines to the Uni.
ted States, but in January she sold
900, 900 francs worth-10 times more.
The French government has been
buying machinery for equipment from
America to develop her iron mines
SO as to produce more and thus help
the situation. But the next two years
surely will be a critical period.
"The only imports the French are
now buying from America are raw
materials-oils, coal, wheat, sugar.
some cotton and tobacco-and the
French government Is interested In
most of these purchases.
1.-THE United States, profiting by
exchange, is buying heavily, but the
production of France Is insufficient.
Algerian hides and dressed leather
goods are the principal French ex.
ports to the United States, with silk
and wool cloth and textiles second.
Paper manufacturers come third and
aluminium fourth, as France contains
valuable deposits Of that metal.
