Reporting on the operation of the
WebbPOmerene net, permitting for
nation of associations for export
trade, the commission informs con-
gress that this act has served as "a
decided factor" in promoting the.
progress of American manufacturers
in foreign markets. The commission
says that during the year 43 assOcia-
lions, comprising approximately 1872
concerns, whose offices and plants
were distributed over 43 states, re-
ported to it as operating under the
export art.
The commission says also that the
law, instead of increasing the strength
of the already great American indus
trial establishments, has enabled the
smaller concerns to band together in
a fashion to push fully organized ex-
port trade in a keenly competitive
manner, which they are not able to
do at home. TO this extent, the COM
mission believes, the law has worked
TO the great advantage of the small
firms.

Appeal To-day
Unrestricted Tariff To Re
Demanded as First Step
Toward Lifting Republic
Out of Economic Chaos
Full Sovereignty Asked
Britain Insistent on Con-
troll to Protect Loans;
Japan Merely Waiting
BY Thomas Steep

| WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.--Dr. We'll
| lington Koo will resume before the con-
ference committee on Pacific and Far
Eastern questions tomorrow morning
China's plea for the restoration Of her
full sovereignty. He will urge the with
drawal of all foreign control. He will
insist that in order to enjoy the open
door and territorial integrity policies
guaranteed by all the powers China's
national pocketbook, now empty, must
be replenished. He will demand imme-
diate revision of the Chinese tariff as
the first move toward lifting the Chi
neso republic out Of economic chaos
and revolutionary disorder.
But what happens in the committees
executive sessions is expected to be not
more significant than what transpires
in the public conferences which the
various delegations arrange for news
paper men. Enough has been revealed
to show that all is not going as
smoothly for China as she desires.
Plain words are being spoken. AS one
delegate expressed it, diplomatic bou-
quets are being superseded by brass
tacks.
British Doubt Capacity
When the British delegates startled
the Chinese delegates by saying Great
Britain considered the four basic prin-
ciples framed by Elihu Root, Of the
American delegation, as implying
China's acceptance of foreign control
of her vital interests, they disclosed
wh hS% yc of
tee. 1t became known to-day that
Great Britain has challenged China's
present capacity for the degree of self
government she seeks. The British
delegates have been interrogating DR..
Koo and his colleagues with severity
which amounts to a grilling.
Taking up one by one the ten
Chinese demands, which if granted
would give the Chinese republic q
place in world politics as Independent
as that of any other nation, the Brit
ish delegates have called attention to
China's two governments, one at Can
questioned the right of the Chinese
delegates, all of whom are from Pek-
ing, to represent the whole country.
DR.. Koo has replied that while di-
vided at home China is united abroad,
or, at least, united so far as the
Washington conference is concerned.
He has asserted that China, sick of in
ternecine strife, of unrelieved famine
and Of humiliations due to foreign
domination, has, after having been de-
feated at the Paris peace conference,
come to Washington, the capital of it's
most sympathetic friend, to plead with
its whole heart for relief. He has pic
tured the humility with which China
a q g.
it became fashion set by the Treaty
of Marking, in 1912, for European pow
ers to rule over parts of China, and he
has called attention to the promptness
with which his country responded to
Americas invitation for China to join
the war on the side of the Allies.

Encore and two other stowaways
were found aboard before the vessel
left Piraeus and were put ashore.
After she had steamed some three hun
dred miles west of Gibraltar the willy
stowaway was observed in the hold. He
was locked in room, but the next
day escaped from his keep and mingled
with the steerage passengers. Again
he was thrown into the brig and a
guard put at his door, but even this
means of security failed, for Encore
got loose again.
He was brought out of the brig yes
serday and questioned by the immigra-
tion officials, after which he was re-
turned to his place of confinement, but
when the vessel docked he could net
