 The only fear expressed by the Cubans was the possibility of a fall in the present prices of sugar. and to avert that the general congress will be asked to oppose any special granting of sugar bounties in pan-American coun- tries. Removal of restrictions on tour ist travel also was asked by the Cubans
 A number of commercial recommen- dations were decided upon by the Bra gillian group. including the elimination of custom taxes on commercial travel CTS samples extension of parcels post and the. establish mcnt of improved com munications by wireless and cable.
 The Brazilians also suggested the establishment of an International train ing ground for the development of ar aviation service between the Americas especially utilized for parcel post pur- poses. The delegates voted to request the governments of the United States and Brazil to appoint a joint commis- sion to study communication possibili- ties.
 ASK MORE SHIPS
 More and larger ships were asked for by the Brazilians for the trade be- tween the two continents.
 Many of the other groups touched on the transportation situation.

innings to decide who should draw
the winning mark. The Clearbrook

most interesting game from the time
the first ball left the pitchers hand

Clearbrook scored first followed by
Gonvick with tie. Clearbrook
again scored and Gonvick tied. In
about the fifth inning a couple OF
Gonvick players secured some lucky
hits favored by short fielding by the.
home boys which gave the visitors
three runs in which Harrison starred
as he brought in two scores and made
a. home run on fumbled ball in the

TRADE CON EDITIONS
WITH SOVIET RUSSIA

Washington, July s. - Decreasing
production and impaired credits in
soviet Russia, will, officials believe,
make impossible any material increase
in commerce, Notwithstanding remov-
al by the State Department of restric-
items on trade. The departments ac-
tion was taken independently, but fol-
lowed extensive changes between the
United States, Great Britain and
France.
The announcement of relaxation ex.
planned that the restrictions of trade
on materials that might be used for
war purposes. are still in effect and
that the departments action is not
to be construed as any political recog-
milton of any Russian authority. In.
dividual export licenses will be re-
qured and these will be granted only
in exceptional cases. The shipments
will be made at the owners risk
The removal of restrictions were
preceded by series Of representations
by representatives of commercial
houses. Regarding the acceptance OF
Russian commodities, the title to
which may be questioned, the state
department included in its announce
ment, a warning, adding that assist
ance which the United States can
normally extend to its citizens cannot
be looked for in Russia. No pass
ports for travelling in that country
will be issued and no change has
been made in mail facilities.
The department added that while
there appears to be available in Rus
sia for export only a small quantity
of raw materials and that the purchas-
ing power Of the country is very lin.
tied, the United States, does not feel
that the law-abidng people in Russia
should be deprived Of any assistance
which can be derived from such trad
ing as may be possible.

F" COUPE SOUPS" NEW
DISH FOR MEMBERS OF.
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.

James Barron, secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce is responsible
for this one.
When the Chamber Of Commerce
decided to remodel their quarters ana
install a kitchen and dining room,
ii became necessary to purchase lot
OF table ware, and kitchen utensils.
member Of the organization, and a
member Of several important commit
tees, was going to attend the repuo-
lican national convention at Chicago,
although he is democrat, and as
some of the articles needed coulo
not be bought in Ardmore, he was
commissioned to purchase list OF
things handed him by the secretary.
Yesterday a bill for the articles ar
rived and checked up all right to a
certain point, said point being an
item for Coupe Soups"
Now the secretary states he has
garged most every kind of soup
known to culinary art, from the pan
and from the can, but he was up
against a new one when Coupe
was sprung on him through the med
ium of mails.
Mr., Barron was for many years a
resident of Chicago and is thoroughly
familiar with the wile/ and ways OF
that breezy city, and he is of the
opinion that there must have been
a new braSl of exhilirating water
thrown on the market since he de-
parted from the lake shore, that would
cause man to invest good money
in Coupe Soups" when he might
just as well have purchased a Ford
Sedan" and with far greater pro-
priety. However, he is waiting the
arrival of the goods to get first hand
look at what friend Cochran put the
Chamber of Commerce up against
while he was hob-nobhing with the
republican hosts in the windy city.
