Americans Fight to
Keep Egyptian Trade
lRr the Assoeiated Press

CAIRO. Oct. 25.-American business
men in Egypt are fighting to retain
TIE trade between America and Egypt
which was developed during the war
when the nations of Europe were too
busy to attend TO their foreign trade
This wartime trade gave American
exporters a foothold but since the
war European competition has been
resumed.
The establishment OF an agency in
Egyp, OF the United States Ship
ping board, followed closely by the on.
cnng OF branches of the American
Express Company, has stimulated and
encouraged tae American colony here,
individual Americans have created To-
cal American firms in association with
Egyptian business men TO promote
trade with America and have created
the organization necessary to handle
the interests of American manufac'
turers and shipowners
The recently organized American
Chamber of Commerce is exerting
every effort TO assist American busi-
hes interests TO meet the keen Eu-
rcpean competition and TO maintain
the enviable position secured during
the past few years.
Prior to 1914 the United States was
commercially a small factor in Egypts
trade. During the war when Egypt
was cut off from the manufacturing
centers OF Central Europe and the
Egyptian importer turned to Ameri-
ga and Japan. American goods flow
ed into Egypt and the buying pub
ilc became familiar with American
products. This marked the first step
in the development; OF Americas trade
with Egypt.
War prices for cotton greatly en-
rlched the country and America bene.
fitted by the increased imp'rtatious
nl Injuries. especially q automobiles
and by a good business in wheat and
flour
The enormous increase in business
compelled the American tire mana
facturers TO buy large quantities Of
the long staple Egyptian cotton i'm
porting IN l9l9.ie2O over 100000
Lales. The English coal strikes
brought big coal contracts TO America
Thus In few years America was
ushercd in as the opportunist to play
an i'm mportant role In Egyptian trade
BY 1919. American exporters real
lied somewhat the Importance OF the
Egyptian market and some export
houses established branches in Alex
rndria and Cairo. lnexperience and
the world crisis combined TO defeat
these attempts OF The American eN
porters in many cases. hut Interest
has bee rarouscd and American trade
is active in keeping its foothold.

 July 2.
 New York. May 13.-In sporting circles in this city yesterday it was said that the odds being quoted on the Dempsey Carpenter bout at this time were to 5, with the American the favorite. A well known author ity expressed doubt that 3 to 1 was being laid abroad with Carpenter the choice and added that he did not c<- pect to see better than to 1 quoted here at any time. Even if there is a dearth of French money, I doubt that supporters of Dempsey will raise the odds any higher than to l, even in an effort to coax forth Carpenter money" he said. Mordaunt & Co.,, brokers, yesterday announced that they had placed se,500 against S4,- 500 that Carpenter would last twelve rounds with Dempsey.

SOVIET POLICY
All-Russian Congress Accept Lee

MOSCOW, Dec. 26. The ninth all

proved Of the new soviet economic
policy as outlined before that gather
ing yesterday BY Premier Nikolai Le-
nine. This approval was given by ac-
cepting Ienine's address, which was
presented as the report of the council
of eommissars on the domestic and
foreign policies of the soviet govern
ment.
A large faction Of communists, who
dislike the governments change of
capitaIistic methods, joined grudgingly
in acceptance Of the new economic
policy.
One reason why they approved it at
all, it was explained IN some quarters,
was because they. had na alternative
to offer. Although they detest the
terms money capitalism and
trusts they received their leaders
apologies that the economic change
was only a preface to construction of
a real communistic government.
Confidence is not general among the
communists in the supreme economic
council Their prejudice appears to be
directed against the council rather
than against the governments general
policy.
NJ. Bogadonoff, council chairman,
Leonid Keassin, soviet trade represen-
tative apparently are not generally
popular with the eomnunistie masses;
and failure to interest foreign seekers
Of concessions in leases and to set ins
stustries IS charged agIinst them.
Moreover, they are regarded in labor
circles as being Indifferent to the
workmen's interests. There is FREE
quent assertion that trusts, whether
under the Russian government or
under the management of foreigners,
win work hardships to the workmen.
Furthermore, the laborers are discon-
tented on account of their claim that
soviet naturalization has not wiped
