AMERICA MUST AWAKEN
TO RETAIN FOREIGN TRADE
Guaranty Trust Company Snys This
Country Must Decide Her Pol
icy in World Trade.

In view OF the vital importancr
of our foreign trade to the mainte
nance of our national prosperity. the
Guaranty Trust Company. of New
york. has issued n booklet, our Now
Place in World Trade" analyzing tho
foreign trade situation and discussing
this country's duties and opportunI-
Ties as creditor nation OF the world.
Emphasizing the Importance of
hoiing our new place. the booklet
says. in part:
we are now at the parting OF tho
ways. What are TO be our poIicics
IN this new relation which we hold
IN the world of trade? All of tho
elements required to control and c,-
tehd our commerce are at our COM
inand. Arc We in the mood to seize
.nis greatest of all our opportuni-
Must Go Forward,
We must 20 forward. or we shall,
inevitably be forced to rctrcat fror,
our present position with heavy losses
an along the line-in shipping, bank
ing ana trade. We are already yipor-
ousiy- challenged by competitors in
foreign markets. y courageous ma
tional policy OF legitimatcly agyres-
save development OF all these newly
co-ordinatcd resources for the con-
duct OF foreign trade is essential.
without constant initiative and posi-
i've effort we shall gradually be
driven out of our advantageous sit
uatIon.
There is no one Anerican-mcr-
chant manufacturer. banker. farmer
or iaborcr--who has not some stake
IN this struggle We have definitely
reached the position of other highly
developed nations.
Foreign countries have borrowed
from us to the extent OF more tina n
s13.o00.0 100000 of which huge amount
$500, 10000 Of funded debt is owed
to private lenders in this country.
Moreover, the movement of capital
from this country To other lands IL
still going on. for foreign loans of n
otal OF nearly 500, 100000 were placed
in this market in the first two months
of 1921.
In short, the change has taken
place by the pressure of crcum-
stances beyond our control. and il is
doubtful IL we could return to our
former status without retrogression
in all our agricultural. manufacture
ing. and commercial Industries. We
must continue on the path OF develop
ment which we are treading. or we
shall lose our place of economic and
political power in the world. and with
IL our high hopes and ideals OF ser
vice TO mankind"

ACTION OF STUDENTS FOR
 LIMITATION OF APARTMENTS

Princeton, N. J., Oct. 9.-The students of more than one hundred leading univer- sities and colleges in the eastern states have been invited by the senior council of Princeton to send delegates here on Oct. 26 for conference to devise means of solidiTying the young men of the na- ton in movement for the international limitation of armaments as a means of ending the danger of new wars.
 Announcement of this action was made tonight and is the first step toward ef- fecting national organization of under graduates pledged to support the confer ence on the limitation of ornaments in Washington as suggested by President John Grier Hibben of Princeton in his matriculation sermon a week ago.
 In its formal invitation to the confer ence the senior council said it hoped such simultaneous action by the young manhood of the nation would awake the country to the necessity of insuring the success of the Washington conference by a general demand for cessation of the international armaments race.
 Each of the colleges and universities selected to participate has been asked to elect two delegates as representatives of the undergraduate body solely. They will be received on the morning of Oct 2S.
 The conference will open with meet ing which is to be addressed by men of both national and international promi- hence. At this meeting a resolution will be introduced expressing to the govern ment the sympathy of the American in stitutions of higher education in the pur- poses of the disarmament conference and prayerful supplicati0I for its successful conclusion. The evening will be devoted to a general mass meeting at which more prominent men will speak.
 ''The recent war has conclusively dem- onstrated that future war is an unthink- able calamity, amounting to race sui eide said the councils invitation. Tt was called a war to establish peace But experience has taught us that peace is a fantasy so long as nations devote ener- gies and uncounted millions to arming themselves for war. The race for mili- tary and naval supremacy always ends in conflict A mere glance at the economic and social confusion of the world is evil | dence that energy and money must be diverted to the solutions of the problems ] of peace if the world is to progress.

IRISH PEACE DELEGATES
 SPENT SUNDAY IN LONDON

London, Oct 9-(By the A. P.)-Tht Irish peace delegates spent quiet Sunday in London, the delegates dividing theiI time between the various churches.
 A third secretary has been added to the delegation. He is John Chartres, and his appointment has provoked much spec ulation. His name is unknown in Irish politics and he is the only one connected with the delegation who is not a mem Der Of the Dali Eireann and any other representative body. He is the grandson of Richard Chartres of Dublin. his fath- CT being the late Sergeant Major Chartrez of the eighth hussars. He married the Italian Poetress Annie Vivanti.
 His accession to the Irish delegation is taken as indicating that the Sim Fein is engaging all expert advice possible. as Mrs. Chartres is an expert in several branches of law and has served in tn, intelligence section of the British war office.
 Others invited to assist the delegation. although not Sim Feiners. are Dr. George O'Brien, historian and economist, and George Russell, of the Irish Home stead and a former official of the British local government board, to handle the in tricate questions of local government.
 The chief risk to a settlement now is btileNeu lo pc lGelaIus TdIneT lnan Tn the conference chambers. Both sides al lege that breaches of the truce have re- I gently multiplied Dubin castle claims to have list of 600 such breaches. while Sim Fein liaison officers have issued a list Of 500 such breaches. while Sim Fein l iaison officers have issued numerous in- stances of alleged aggression. by police. auxiliaries and soldiers.
 To carry arms is a breach of the truce, but to drill troops is not; neither is the 1 transfer of troops, and each side has an- swered the others complaint by saying that they were only training or moving , troops. The appointment to the London delegation of Eamonn T. Duggan. who since the truce has acted as chief liaison officer, removes from Ireland a man whose great discretion helped to the avoidance of trouble. His successor, Murphy has had less experience.
 This question of breaches of the truce probably will be the first subject taken up by the conference which meets at Il | o'clock Tuesday morning at the prime minister's official residence, in Down. ing street to discuss procedure. Another danger some anticipate is that if the in- | termed Irishmen are released there will be celebrations throughout the country, which might cause clashes ebtween the people and the crown forces.

BoRAH FREE TOLLS BILL
 COMES UP IN SENATE TODAY

Washington. Oct. 9.-Another chapter is to be written tomorrow by the senate in the controversy over Panama canal privileges. Passage by the senate of the Eorah free tolls bill is scheduled even the opponents of the measure conceding l majority vote in favor of it.
 The bill which would exempt American COastwise vessels from canal tolls. is ex- Iected by leaders to lie in the house in- definitely, at least until after the arma- ment limitation conferences.
 The senate vote is set for 1 o'clock to- morrow, the day having been set aside for the bnrs consideration, to the excIu- son of the tax bill and the pending peace treaties.
 The tolls measure, presented by Sena- tor Borah. chairman Of the senate inter- oceanic canals committee, does not ap- ply to American vessels in foreign com merce It conforms to a plank in the republican platform of 1920 and to an- other plank in the democratic platform or 1912. but both parties are divided \on the question. Senator Borah will speak tomorrow in favor of the bill and Sena- for Lodg.' in opposition. Senator Under- wood. democratic floor leader. and a number of other democrats have declared they will support the bill.
 The Borah proposal would undo the tolls re9eals bill passed in 1914, at the request of President Wilson, who told congress that the repeal measure was a diplomatic necessity The reason for Mir Wilson's request has never been made public officially. The repeal bill annulied the tolls exemption law in favor of American ships passed in 1912 by a re- publican congress, during the latter part Of the Taft administration. The Wilson repeal measure caused the first serious division in congress during his admins tr2ton, former Speaker Clarke, Senator Underwood, then a representative anC other prominent democrats opposing it.

PersFling AbandOns
 His Trip to England
Lack of Time is Given as the .Cause-No Date Has Been Set For Ceremony at West minister Abbey.

Paris, Oct (by the A. P)-General Pershing will not go to London to lay the Congressional medal on the tomb of the British unknown so dier in West minister Abbey, and if the ceremony is held another American officer will be designated to represent the United States
 This announcement came tonight from a most Authoritative source.
 Lack of time available for the trip between now and October 20, when General Pershing sails for home, is the official explanation for his decision to abandon his visit to England. It is learned, however, that failure of the British war office either to fix a date for the ceremony or, until late yester day, to give any explanation for not replying to repeated inquiries for the American embassy officials is the chief reason for General Pershing's decision.
 General Pershing came to Europe for the purpose of laying the Congressional Medal on the tombs of the rench and British unknown soldiers. The Wash ington government so informed the British government early in August, and again when he sailed. So far as can be learned no answer was received to either communication, which asked that a date be fixed for the ceremony and that the general be informed.
 Since his arrival in Paris further in quiries have been made at the British foreign office through the medium of the American enaba ssies in London and Par is. One of the inquiries developed the explanation that such ceremonies us ually took a long time to arrange. The specially trained battalion from the American forces on the Rhine, which acted as a guard of honor at the Paris | ceremony and was to have proceeded to Coblebz this afternoon by special train | after having been held a week in Paris awaiting word from the British foreign office.
 American officials in Paris, as well as General Pershing and his party. i have been mystified by the silence of the British government, and the mat ter has caused much embarrassment to 1 the general. He has been besieged with invitations to dinners and official func- ! tions and the uncertainty of the London arrangements made it difficult to reply to many of these. Some of the military men have advanced the exp-anation that the rule not permitting British officers and men to accept foreign decorations might be the cause of the situation they further suggested that the British might want to arrange to confer a decoration similar in importance on Americas unknown soldier before ac- ceptnig the congressional medal
 On the other hand, it is pointed ou that the fact that the medal was con- ferred by an act of congress on behalf of the American people should place tn, decoration in a special category, where ordinary rules andas precedents would not apply
 American officials in Parir ora ,,,,1oI concerned over the matter, and fear: are expressed tkdt an unfriendly inter pretation might be placed on the incl dent unless a, full explanation is mad
 of the delay and the ceremony held a
 soon as it can be arranged.
 General Pershing would not common
