ExDreSSmen to Make
 An Unusual Request

At one of the coming meetings of the common council a petition will be presented by the local expressmen, which is an unusual one, according to the statement of John P. Farrell. The petition will ask that the council enact an ordinance prohibiting the express men from occupying the present stand on Commercial street. It is set forth that the number of new expressmen who have gone into the business has made conditions about the stand on Commercial street, a hazard for the fire department. Under the proposed plan the expressmen will have their stations at their own homes, and those desiring to do business can locate them by telephone.

BRAZIL ALSO FEELS TRADE DEPRESSIONS William Curtin, Just Returned,
 Gives Views of Situation There ARGENTINA ALSO AFFECTED
Local Young Man After Three Years in South American Republic, Re- turns to Native. City For Long Awaited Vacation.

William Curtin, son of MT. and Mrs. James H. Curtin of 175 West Main street, who has arrived home from Brazil after stay there of three and one-half years, gives a very in teresting account of his experiences and impressions while he was in the country. Mfr. Curtin, through his connections with the @ Chamber of the National City Bank of New York, has a thorough knowledge of the nancial and business condition of Brazil and the other South American republics.
 Depression There Also.
 Speaking from a business stand point. MT. Curtin likens the condi- ton of the country to that of the United States with regard to the de- pression. Brazil derives it's trade from the exports of coffee, cocoa and tobacco. During the war; Brazil ex- ported on an average of 15,00O,0O0 bags of coffee per year, which rep resents it's normal yearly export of that article, 12,00O,O00 pounds o1 which are raised in the city of San tos where MT. Curtin was stationed while in the country. This amounts to 65 per cent of the coffee raised in the world, the rest being raised in Central America.
 Other Large Exports.
 The exports of rice, beans, cotton and hides and also rubber from the north of the country were also very large, but owing to the fact that the export business is practically at a standstill, and because the country itself has no means of manufactur- ing their materials, conditions are very bad. In general. all the coun- tries of South America are dependent on foreign trade for their mainte- nance, and a good example of the manner in which business is con- ducted there can be had from the rubber industry. Tn Peru, which Is a northern state Of Brazil crude rubber is collected, Ind because there are no means of manufacture there it must be exported to foreign country for manufacture, and import ed again in the finished state.
 Finances Also Low.
 The financial condition there is very poor Normally, the Brazilian m1lrefs is equivalent to 30 cents U s. currency, while today, it is wortf only 12. This however, is 1ittl. better than, three months ago, wher 1t was worth but 10. The condition m December 1919 was fully 100 pc, cent better than it is today Then the products of the country were il great demand in both thep United States and England, but since tn, war, the demand has 50 lessened. an, the cost of producing has increase, so much, that only enough goods ar produced to meet the. local demand
