BODY OF FATHER GRIFFIN
 FOUND IN SHALLOW GRAVE

Galway Ireland, Nov. Nov. 21.-The body of Father Griffin, the priest who disappeared several days ago, was found yesterday in shallow grave about four miles from Galway. There was bullet wound Tn his temple.
 The hody was brought to Galway this morning. Intense excitement prevails
 The h"dy of Father Griffin, who was the curate of Bushy Park, was found in a bog ty the roadside near Darna, four miles from Galway. Volunteers had been searching for the missing curate since he was kidnapped by three un- Known persons last Sunday. A party of country lads made the tragic discovery.
 The lads observed in the bog what ap- reared to have been a recent upheaval. They began probing into the mound With sticks and finally uncovered the skirts and the overcoat of the priest ! Without proceeding further. they sent for priests in Galway and. when they ar rived working under their direction by moonlight. unearthed the body of the missing curate. The bullet wound in the head of the priest was evidence of the cause of his death.
 Cottagers in this bleak and sparseIy inhabited part of the countryside tell ot the mysterious arrival at midnight last Sunday following the Kidnapping O Father Griffin. of lorry load of men The lorry halted near the spot where tn, body was found and the lights were ex
 tinguished In about twenty minutes the lamps were re-lighted and the part, drove away.
 When the body of Father Griffin wa
 brought into Galway today it was place
 uncoffined. on the high altar of the par ish church Huge crowds passed be fore the bier while three priests kne
 nearby reciting the rosary. The first in timation the townsfolk had of the trage dy was the announcement made by tn priest at the morning masses. , At St Joseph'S church. where Fathe l Griffin presided, pathetic scenes of grie . were witnessed. The priests omitted tn
 usual sermon and confined themselves
 relating incidents of the life of Fathe
 Griffin and paying tribute to him. The z declared that the priest had earned
 martyrs crown and begged the congrt - gation to pray for the repose of his sou but not to forget also to pray for h , murderers.
 II Although a numhtr of priests have be-
 ill-treated or threatened Father Griff 2 is the first to forfeit his life In fact. I k priest has been done to death in Irelar 5, in mnay years
 e Father OMeehan. Father Griffin's co l. league and senior curate. with who
 Father Griffin lived, said in his churc l. today that he had received five writ, d threats of death since last May and tn l. he did not dare sleep in his own hom e He added that Father Griffin had ney le received any threats.

Plan to Promote
 Our Foreign Trade
American Bankers Associa- ton Proposes to Form a $1, ,o0O, ,OO0 Corporation For That Purpose.

New York. Nov 21.-Bankers and busi- ness men throughout the country are urS- ed in a prospectus made public here to- day by the American Bankers Associa- ton to consider inauguration by the first of the year, of the foreign trade financ- ing corporation under the Edge act for the protection of home industries and proper financing of American foreign trade.
 Action on the proposed corporation which will be capitalized at s10J,000,O0G is expected at meeting in Chicago on December 10 and II designed to be rep resentatives of the entire country's fin ance and industry.
 Establishment of the corporation the prospectus said, is considered vital to safeguard industry from "an anxious fu- ture with attendant elements of unem- playment and unrest"
 "Stagnation has developed in the Unit ed States for commodities such as wool. sugar. rubber, coffee. leather, certain metals and various other Staples" it add ed, "and to a lesser extent, for wheat and cotton. whereas practically all such commodities are urgently required in many other countries of the world. The American dollar is at a premium in practically every country in the world tc Sucn an extent Iildl tApOl tS 1loii IAAS United States to many countries during a considerable period have not yet been paid for by those countries"
 Other features emphasized are;
 q 'uture exports from the United States for an indefinjke time cannot be paid for in large part except over an eX' tended period
 ''In the case of countries where it i: believed exchange may turn within a few months, buying in the United States ha: practically stopped except where ar rangemHnts could be made for postpon ing payment until exchange turns. European countries in general are be | ing obliged to confne their purchase here vigorously to necessities of the mo ment and are unable to obtain sufficen raw material to restore their industries | American export trade, exclusive o Europe, ''is beginning to back up' an throw goods manufactured for export int competition with good manufactured fo domestic consumption. the prospectu said.
 1 Foreign loans "have been carrie
 about as far as conservation warrants, it stated. and further credits "rnust he " longer time than banks and indust institutions can legitimately be asked 't carry"
 It is authoritatively stated that th
 rendering under the plan of special a! sistance to any one country has not bee
 consvidered. for tht object of the plan
 to encourage American foreien trade z
