Richmond. Va. May 3O.-In an ad-
dress before the Kiwanis Club of
this city. Col. Henry w. Anderson,
Richmond attorney, who served as
head of a Red Cross commission TO
Rumania, scored bankers for at
tempting to debate credits as they
affect extensions to industries. be-
cause, in his opinion, the policy will
cause idleness among workmen and
reduce production.
He urged reduction of taxation by
funding the national debt for a long
term of years sc that capital will
invest in private business rather
than government bonds. He also
urged that industries should be freed
from government control. In his
opinion. the law of supply and de-
mand is principally responsible for
the prevailing high prices. Colonel
Anderson is the choice of Virginia
Republicans for the Vice Presiden-
tial nomination of that party.

Rapid Expansion Shown in Our
Trade wth the Orient of Late

The share of United States in the
rapidly growing trade of the Orient
has increased from less than 10 per
cent in the year before the war to
over 90 per cent in 1919. The total
trade of the Orient, including in this
term Asia and the adjacent islands,
aggregated, says a statement of the
National City Bank of New York,
about S5.200.000.0 900 in 1918, of which
about S475, 000. 900 was with the Unit
ed States, but in 1919 had advanced
to $3.50, 900. 900. of which $780,
900 900 was with the United States.
While the general trade of the Orient
nearly doubled during the war per-
iod. that with the United States
Quadrupled. Our exports to Asia
and the Philippines, which in 1913
amounted to only $l53.0oO,000, were
in 1919 S775.000, 900, and in the fiscal
year about to end will exceed $780,
000. 900; our imports from the Sec
ton in question. which amounted to
only $500, 900, 900 in 1918, were ST.
100, 600, 900 in 1919 and will probably
aggregate $1,000, 100000 in the fiscal
year ending with next month.
Manufactures, says the banks
statement, are the principal articles
forming the imports into the Asiattc
countries. and when the European
supplies were cut off by the war,
they naturally turned to the United
States, which was directly accessi-
BILE across the Pacific, and was, even
then, the worlds largest producer
OF manufactures. AS consequences,
the Asiatic countries have not only
increased their imports from the
United States. but also enlarged the
percentage which the United. States
products form of their increasing
imports. China, for example. which
in 1913 took only per cent OF her
imports from the United States, took
from us over 10 per cent of her
greatly increased imports in 1918

her trade are available; Japan,
