NORMAL TRADE
RELATIONS GOAL
Treasury Clearly Defines
Present Administrators
Central Europe Policy.

Following the action of the war
Finance Corporation in agreeing to
finance the expectation Of 1900
bales of cotton to Czecho- Slovakia
and Germany, il was made plain at
the Treasury yesterday that the
policy OF the present administration
will be to seek to establish normal
trade relations with Central Eu-
rope, regardless of the technical
state of war still existing.
The expectation of the cotton was
financed through two American
banking institutions. and it was
said that for the present II is con-
sidered wiser to have American Sc
curity for such shipments to Ger
many. In this there Is no desire to
mark a radical departure from the
policies OF Secretary Houston. 1t was
declared. but a belief that the needs
Of world readjustment demand every
encouragement that can safely be
given to re-establishment of normal
foreign trade relations.

ENGLAND HAS MORE MOTOR
CYCLES THAN AUTOS.

1t is not a generally known fact
in this country that more motor
cycles are in use IN London and all
England than automobiles or other
autonotive vehicles. but such is the
fact disclosed by recent registration
statistics.
In this country. where more au-
tomob!les are used than in all OF the
rest OF the world together. motor
cycles are naturally in the minority.
Motorcycles are widely used in
England by people in all walks of

because of the thrilling sport and
fascination il affords them, but the
largest use of the motorcycle in
England is as a means Of reliable.
