DESIRE RESTORATION
OF EUROPEAN TRADE
Latin American Countries
: Wish to Renew CONNER
cial Relations.
U. S. is INDIFFERENT
American Merchants Will
Not Cater Sufficiently to
Foreign Trade.
U. S. is INDIFFERENT

That the Latln-American countries
desire restoration of trade relations
with Europe, is the opinion of d b
Brans0n. professor of geology in the
University.
In his geological research in Costa
Rica an dhis various experiences with
other countries Of Latin-America
Professor Branson has watched the
attitude Of these inhabitants toward
American trade.
Il found in these countries" he
said, "a feeling that the people were
not satisfied with American manu-.
factures. and desire to renew com.
merce with Europe"
In lecture this morning, Prof w
j. Shepherd. Of the political science
department of the University, ex'
pressed the same views.
"Since war was declared, all manu-
factured articles imported by Latin
America, have come from the United
States" Professor Shepherd said
"As a matter of fact, the European
nations have provided facilities ant
met the real desire and needs Of
these countries better than We.
For example, American manufac
turers take 100000 worth of order.
and deliver. perhaps, $4,000 worth
Of them, naturally making a bad i'm
preston on the country so treated
The European nations it is said. take
no more orders than they can fill.
Manufacturers Are Careless.
1T has been noteworthy for a long
time that Americans were not parti-
cularly concerned in packing and ar
ranging goods to please the people
sending the goods as il for their own
trade and forcing the Latin-Americans
TO accept them. For example, Ameri-
can mems collars are sent marked
in American sizes, while in Latin
America they are marked in Cent?
meters. We have been trying to edu-
cate them to our preference and have
taken no account of their desires. Our
banking facilities are not as conven-
lent as those of the Europeans. The
Latin-Americans like long term cred
its which Europe alone gives them.
Our Commercial representatives
are not trained for their work, not
knowing the language or being inter-
ested in the people In Europe. and
especially in Germany, the represen-
tatives are carefully trained thus
gaining deserved advantage, and
unless the United States follows the
same policy. it deserves to be defeat
ed for trade.
Just because we are Joined to
South America by the Isthmus Of
Panama we are not necessarily con-
nected with its culture and intelli-
gence. In fact, Europe has been much
closer in sympathies and culture.
Geographical unity does not mean

cultural unity. II we wish to develop
Pan-Americanism, we must develop
a cultural bond Of unity with Latin
America
: Could Improve Consular Service.
"One thing that could be improved
at once is the consular service. We
should develop a more specialized,
skillful and better trained body to
us and keep us informed of
conditions. Compared with other
countries we have very poor con-
sular service.
There is no reason why We should
not develop a warm friendship with
Latin-America, since geographical
unity is a basis for political unity.

Such Proof As This Should Convince
Any GreeneviIle Citizen.

The public endorsement Of local
citizen is the best proof that can be
produced. None better, none strong

forward and testifies to his fellow
citizens, addresses his friends and
neighbors, you may be sure he is
thoroughly convinced or he would NOT
do so. Telling ones experience when
it is for the public good Is an act Of
kindness that should be appreciated.
