LOSING TRADE
 OF THE BALTIC STATES

RIGA, Lativa, June Millions of dollars in ready cash are going to English, German and Dutch firms from the Baltic states because of the almost unbelievable unfamiliar ity of even the largest American firms with foreign trading conditions and even geography, say Americans here.
 Dozens of big orders for which cash was actually in the banks in New York have been lost to the United States because of what American representatives in the Bal tic states term absolute stupidity.
 ''It is time," said one of these Americans in Riga who has had to place many orders in Germany and in England when America could have had them, that the heads of American firms realize what the subordinates in charge of their for eign trading departments are doing to them. .~
 Most of them, brought up on so- called American efficiency systems that may work well at home but are absolutely hopeless abroad, try 1 to do business in Europe according to form 22' or form 24' or what ever form they would apply to simi- l lar deals in America.
 ITO illustrate, not long ago l i had an urgent cash order for forty ! thousand suits of underclothing for Baltic state. I telegraphed to a big American firm: What your price 40,000 suits heavy underwear cash against documents New York?'
 Two or three days later I re- ceived a telegram saying: Price dollar twenty or something like that #.s:~
 More valuable time was lost in an exchange of telegrams asking what they meant, per garment or per suit. The result was that l wired an English firm. My answer from it was complete, just what l wanted. The telegram gave the price per suit, weight of shipment, pro- bable date of delivery and every thing that 1 wanted to know. The English firm got the order and took the cash in the New York bank.
 When I write American firms for catalogues, I get catalogues without prices. I suppose they think it is undignifed to print them. Then I write for pricelists and get price lists without catalogues.
 German or English firms print complete catalogues, giving just the information one desires. They save valuable weeks of mail correspond ence and get the orders"
 Another American in trade in Riga showed the Associated Press correspondent cablegram from one of the biggest oil companies in the United States, in reply to his tele- gram which said: Quote me price refined oil delivered Riga" The an swer read: "Crude oil has gone up 20 cents a barrel"
 "Now," said this American dealer, T didn't want to know ab Ut crude

HINES TURNS GUNS
ON ELECTION BOARD
Anti Tan,naany Leader Sees
Mdlfeosonce in Office.

Following the refusal of Justice Guy
yesterday to hear argument on the order
to show cause, sued out by James J..
Hines and designed to compel the Board
of Elections to inform the anti Murphy
candidate for the Borough Presidential
nomination what his number on the
primary ballot is TO be. 1t was said that
Mr.. Hines was considering bringing
charges Of malfeasance in Office against
the Board of Elections.
1T is nigh time" said Joseph Shalleck
the Hines manager. that public Of
ticials should perform their duty accord
ing TO their oath and not display a sharp
partisan attitude. The law is clear that
the Board Of Elections is merely a min
sterial body and has no judicial func-
tions.
THE attitude of the Board of Elec-
tions and the Corporation Counsers of
flee in invoking legal technicalities as
to why's and wherefores of procedure is
clearly subversive of the intent of the
direct primary law. The adjournment
OF this argument means that the ad-
vertising which Mr.. Hines has con-
tracted for during the last two weeks
has been wasted"
Justice Guy decided he did not have
authority TO hear the motion, as it was
one in which both sides should be repre-
Sented.
