Appropriation Is Cut.

The present act, as passed by Dem
oUratic congress, provided 1926, 900 for
the promotion and development for for
eign and domestic commerce. The Re-
publican leaders in the house ordered
slashing and the figures for ths
new appropriation are S175,o00, a cut
of nearly one-half.
There were about one dozen COM,
mercial attaches, who, as their title
indicates, were a part of the personnel
of Americas embassies and legations:
England, France, italy and Japan, and
formerly Germany, Russia the Balkans,
etc, were among the countries where
American trade was placed at a cost
of $165, 900. The Republicans plan to
eliminate all the commercial attaches
from governmental activities, irrespec-
tive Of American business necessities
Two years ago Democratic congress
appropriated $50 900 for commercial de-
velopment in the Orient, particularly in
China, a fertile field. Last year this

the successful results. The Republicans,

Meanwhile Democratic representatives
who have studied this matter point out
that Great Britain, Canada, France,
Italy Japan and even Germany are in :
dustriously securing the lands washed
by the seven seas in order to supply the
business held up by four years Of war.
Said Secretary of Commerce Aexan
der of the proposed elimination of the
commercial attaches:
''There is not an office in the service
that does not turn in more than $l65, :
900 every year in actual business, and
sthe contracts obtained by American
houses through some of the offices run
into millions of dollars. That is taking

More False Economy.

front of those nations seeking to place
their merchandise before the entir,'
: world" said Representative Joseph w.
Byrns, ranking Democratic member of
the house appropriations committee.
who has fathered expert commercial ex-
pansion for many years. This so-called
economy of the Republican leaders will
prove an expensive proposition to the
business men of America if the bill
passes as reported by the committee.
Other nations are already in the field
for supplying the worlds merchandise
i and we alone lag behind, simply because
some Republican leaders fail to appre-
ciate what their economy will mean
to American manufacturers.
THE Republicans claim that our con
sular agents can handle the informa-
ton obtained by the trained commercial
attaches. This, of course, is an impos-
sibility but If it was so why did not
the Republicans increase the consular
appropriation bill when it came up in
order to care for the greatest trade OPP
portunity in the worlds history?'
