inSta BILE conditions in the rate mar
kets are not confined to the European
trades. Open rates have been declared
t. the west coast of South America. and
competition is sending quotations down
TO unprecedented levels. One line has
calculated that 1t can save money by
bringing its ships back from River
Plate ports in ballast. as the rates that
can be obtained for cargoes are INSULT
C!ent to cover wharfage charges and
costs of handling.
Where conference rates are still nom-
inally in force in most instances they
are being undercut as much as % per
cent The conference rate on general
cargo to India. for instance. is 81 a
ton, whereas current quotations range
about $40. In many instances rates
have gone far below pre-war levels.
AT % cents a hundred pounds the flour
rate to United Kingdom ports is
cents below the rate of 1913. Costs OF
operation, on the other hand. are still
far above pre-war costs.
Despite the continued downward trend
OF rates and the inability of conferences
10 keep together. conditions in the ocean
freight markets yet offer some basis
for optimism on the part of steamship
lines and forwarding agents. A num-
Der of significant factors are taken to
point TO q pronounced turn for the
better. and some observers are hope
ful enough to say that the long awaited
revival in trade has already started.
signs of Revival.
Particular signifance is attached to
the much better movement of cargo 10
the Far East During the past month
sailings out of New York for Philippine.
Chinese and Japanese ports have been
more than doubled. The Barber Steam
ship Lines have added four monthly
sailings. the Osaka Shosen kaisha
three and the Nippon Yusen Waisha
two. Yet despite the increased ton
mage vessels in this trade are un-
able to handle sll the cargo offered.
1t is pointed out that the Far East
having been the first to feel the effects
OF worldwide depression. would natur-
ally be expected to show Improvement
before Europe or South America. Bet
ter conditions in exchange are also said
To- favor recovery in Cnina and Japan.
Shipping men in close touch with the
export situation declare that many more
orders are being placed than are find-
ing their way to the ships. Exporters
are holding up shipments. IL Is said. in
the hope Of getting lower ocean freight
rates. Sterilization of the freight mar
ket. therefore, should be followed by
heavier cargo movements.
The dark side of the picture is that
any improvement in trade which is at
present foreseen will still be insufficient
to warrant employment OF the large
numbers of freight ships now idle not
only in the United States, but in every
shipping nation in the world. As soon
as betterment is seen in any one trade.
idle ships are hurried into service or are
transferred from other trades. II is pre-
dicted. for example. that by January
the Far Eastern berths will again be
overtonnaged. and that rates will there
fore resume their downward trend.

In fact, we are going to press our right

of our new policy is that .America's
interest and Americas right go hand
in hand. but where Americas interest
ends Americas right ends and that in
those matters where we have no right
we are going to avoid ENHANCEMENT.
Broadly speaking, Americas new
policy is that we have an interest in
every economic matter taken up by the
supreme council, but that we have no
Interest in any political matter affect
ing Europe that may be taken up by

The Illustration of this new policy.
is now complete. We had an interest

operations, and therefore, we took

purely political subject of the boun-
larry between Poland and Germany
md therefore, we declined to take q
and. This is complete picture OF
he new policy.
OF course, the place where the line
5 drawn is mere or less arbitrary. |
We say, for example, that we have an
nterest in the amount of export duty |
-hich the allies put upon German
Gods because that export duty will |
ave an economic effect upon every

Memorial Day Message To American
Legion Stirs Men; Shows Presi-

Sacrificing Lives

New York.--President Harding, In
4 Memorial day message to the Ameri-
can Legion, made public Thursday, ex-
pressed hope that the future would
bring less need for further national
Sacrifices. The message follows:
Americans have never been much
given to the establishment of holidays
and fete days. Perhaps our national
life has been so short, and entirely
within so matter-of-fact and practical
period of the worlds history, that
we have. been little moved by the senti-
ments that such occasions inspire. Yet
think no nation has ever established
a national day of conservation that
represented more lofty and ennobl-
Ing sentiment than does our national
Memorial day. To its obersevance we.
have brought the full measure of sin
cere reverence and gratitude that
great people is ever to entertain for
those who have made the great sac
rifice in its behalf.
Memorial day marks our recogni-
ton Of those >who, from our national
beginnings, have deserved the most
that the nation could give of gratitude
and appreciation. 1t reminds us that
in every generation, from Lexington
to the Argonne, our valorous sons have .
wen deserved the highest tribute that
a nation, fortified defended, preserv-
ed, could give to them. Whenever the
demand has come, and wherever it may
HAYS called the sons of our proud land,
il has always been answered. Though
we have never been a militant or war
loving people, there has been no time
when Americans did not rise to the full
of the recruitment which ma
-ional honor and national safety I'M
posed upon them When national safe
y was the cause, the response was al
ways insistent and decisive. When
civilization summoned and our sons
we're called to other seas and soils, we
