-ReSentment against American SELL
ing methods is seen in a letter handed
King Gustaf by the Swedish Indus
trial Association, containing a pro-
posal that the sovereign consider the
! advisability of making an appeal to
the league of nations to bring about
an International agreement for the
general cessation of diScrim iflation i'll
prices on export goods.
The association declares the reason
eign products over homemade goods lies
IN the discriminatory policy pursued by
competing nations. The trade policy
of the world, it says has displayed
an increasing tendency toward unfair
competition. because theS countries
owning supplies of the prime neces-
sites try to keep them for them
selves. only releasing stocks for ex
port as they accumulate surplus. an..
often discriminating between buyers
OF different nationalities.
Great Inconvenience is now being
caused in Sweden because the coun-
tries producing oil, coal, food and raw
materials charge higher prices to for
eign buyers
1t is manifest that this appeal is
really aimed at the United States.
with England in the background Tn
derlying the whole fabric of discon-
| tent lies grudge against those re-
sponsitfe' for the selling that has
overstocked Scandinavia, and the con-
stantiy growing ill feeling OF business
men toward American methods. This
feeling has now reached point
where the merchants intend to take
| counter measures. Along with the
! appear to the king for an interna-
| tional agreement on competitive
methods. the Swedish Industrial As
sociation is just starting a campaign
| for enlisting public support of home
| Industries. The idea is to build up
| prejudice against foreign made prod
! ucts by demanding favor for Swedish
i goods.
Combined with the proposed gov
| ernnient restrictions on imports. this
| situation makes the prospect of Amer
! lean trade gaining any Roadway dur
ing the coming months seem poor.

LONDON. November ). = Arthur
Henderson, NJ. p, today Indignantly de-
nounced the view held in some quarters
that the unemployment crisis in England
arises from the liking of the British
than work and wages. He attributes
the crisis, which he calls very threaten
ing, to the consistent failure of the
government to tackle the unemployment
problem with honesty and energy.
Workers" said Mr.. Henderson,
dread idleness because of its social
effects upon their families, their own
character and physical condition and
the economic future OF those to whom
the workers are most deeply attached
1t compromises the prospects of their
children, often entails burden of debt
which breaks the spirit of the wife and
not infrequently disintegrates the fam
lily circle. What the workers want is
work and the labor party has formu-
lated proposals which would give them
work.
Unemployment should be dealt with
along organized scientific lines by each
industry, and all industries should con-
tribute to common unemployment
benefit pool in proportion to the profits
OF the industry. Industry must be re-
garded from national standpoint, and
as unemployment Is national evil it
should be dealt with on broad national
lines.
I'VE want a graduated unemployment
tax on the profits OF industry. From
the pool thus formed all unemployed
persons will receive the minimum bene-
nit consistent with maintaining the in
dlviduai health, together with an addi-
tional allowance for the wife and each
child dependent on the worker

Assurance

Influenza and pneumonia cases have
been on the increase for a month, ac-
cording to Health Department records,
but Health Commissioner Copeland
said yesterday that there was nothing
like an epidemic" and eve have moth
ing to fear" He advised every one

Since Monday there have been nine

pneumonia.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-The Public
Health Service tonight expressed con-
fidence that there would not be seri-
Gus recurrence of influenza in the
United States because the malady ran
it's course a year ago and left mill
lions immune, movement of large
bodies of troops has ceased, doctors
and nurses have returned to civilian
work and there are no reports Of seri-
Gus outbreaks in foreign countries. 1t

American Steamship
Ashore i'm Blizzard
Coast Cutters Go to the Aid of
Freighter Lakeview, Off
.IOnes Inlet. l.. T.

The American freiglter Lakeville;
bound from Portland for Norfolk, went
ashore last night in blizzard near
Jones Inlet, Long Island. The first in
timation the lifesavers had that yes
sci was in distress came when the
Lakeville blew her siren for twenty
minutes, the call being heard along the
shore between Babylon and Long
Beach. Later the Coast Guard received
a radio from the vessel saying she had
become wedged upon the shoal. 1t is
believed that the snow storm shut
down upon the vessel quickly and that
her master lost his bearings.
Coast Guard officers said last night
that, while cutters would be sent to
stand by the Lakeville. she probably
was in no danger, as only moderate
sea was running and the wind from
the north could not blow her closer
