Between The Two
Countries
LLOYD ALLEN

London, July 6.-Freedom of the
Seas-this is the toughest of today's
problem between America and Eng
land, beside which all other questions
are as nothing.
For one hundred years England
and the United States have develop
ed with different viewpoints regard
ing ethics. of regulating and using
the worlds great trade routes in
peacetime or in wartime.
Since America has built a great
feet of commerce carriers and at the
same time is creating a strong navy,
the question Of cooperation with Eng
land in utilization of the Seven Seas
has become of paramount import
ance.
What Comparisons Show
Lloyd's Register shows the follow
ing startling comparison between the
British pre-war and post war merch-
ant fleets:
British tonnage 21.045,04s 20,5s2,56
These figures show Americas
rapid advance into the shipping bust
ness, with the u. 8. Shipping Board
as the largest single operator in the
history of the world.
British shipping circles have shown
a disposition to carefully guard the
great trade routes of the world and
not encourage American entry into
these expensive built up connections
that link the worlds seaports.
Much resentment has been ex-
pressed in London regarding the
full force would operate detrimental
ly against British interest, it Is felt.
At the same time official and un-
official London watch with unfiagging
interest the growth Of the American
navy and there is a unanimous plea
in the press for agreement limiting
ornaments, If possible.
Should agreement not materialize,
the newspapers warn England
against taking second or third place
among the worlds great navies.

England has been more than justifl-

overwhelmed with inquiries about the
possibilities of trade and industry in
the Philippines and with requests for
information about exports. Our ex~

new markets certainly will be estab-
lished for certain products which
England wants." "
Products on display in raw state
include hemp, sugar, TOBACCO. cocoa.
articles there are hats, embroideries,
buttons, slippers. basketries and
furniture. The large show cases flll-
ed with Women's gray colored hemp
hats caught the feminine eye and
very early in the show were sold out.
Furniture manufactured from ma

single piece measuring Ave feet in
diameter. This species of wood is
