BETTER ECONOMIC SIGNS
Conditions Vastly Improved in
South America,

Signs Of better economic conditions
are seen on the South American busi-
ness horizon by the Federal Reserve
Board in its monthly bulletin for May.
Economic conditions in Argentina, the
board declared. are gradually improv-
ing. due to an increased demand for
tine leading export commodities, notably
cereals. hides and wool. As a result
export prices have risen, while stocks
Of commodities on hand awaiting ship
ment are much lower than last year,
while stocks of imported merchandise
have been gradually reduced.
While production of all the staple ar
ticles which constitute the source of
the national income OF Brazil has fallen
of in the past year, Brazil, the board
declared. is beginning to develop other
industries. which will make it less de-
pendent on the principal stables. De-
creased production of nitrate. the board
continued has resulted in serious un-
employment in Chile. as well as affect,
ing the business OF the country and

Clemson College, May 1O.-The
Charleston Irish potato area is to
have free daily market reports for the
present shipping season, as last year,
according to F. L. Harkey, chief di-
vision of markets of the Extension
Service, who makes the following an
nouncement:
The Bureau of Markets and Crop
Estimates, U. S. Department of Agri-
culture, will open temporary station
at Charleston, S. c., for the purpose
of issuing daily reports on white po-
tatoes during the potato shipping sea-
son. These reports will be similar to
the ones distributor last season and
will contain information regarding the
carlot movement Of potatoes, prices
and conditions around Charleston and
ncompeting producing sections; ana
carlot receipts, conditions and prices
in the large terminal markets hand
ling South Carolina potatoes. These
daily telegraphc reports will be fur
nished free of charge, upon request, to
all persons interested.

planned reasons still continue in this
province.
The American Relief Admniistra-
tion here, as elsewhere in Russia, has
to employ number of Russians in
clerical work at the headquarters, in
the distributing committees and for
other work. While the Cheka and it's
successor have not actually hampered
the Americans themselves, the Rus
slams employed by the American Re-
lief Administration have been close
ly watched.
A number of arrests, estimated at
from 100 to 800, were recently made,
among the intelligentsia of Samara
province, supposedly for counter-rev-
olutionary plotting. Among these
were eight employees of the Ameri-
can Relief.
1t is generally believed in Samara
that most of those arrested will be
released shortly but efforts on the
part of the American Relief authori-
ties to learn the charges against
their employees have so far failed.

China Becoming
Self Dependent

Chicago, May 13-China is becom-
ing more self-assertive and self-de-
pendent since the early days of the
Washington conference, says Bishop
Francis J. Mcconnell, resident Bishop
of Pittsburgh of the Methodist Epis-
copal church, who has been visiting in
China recently.
Bishop Mcconnell is a member of
the Educational Commission of the
Missions Board of America and Great
Britain who were sent to China six
months ago. His statement was made
public by Committee on Conserva-
ton and Advance of the Methodist
church here.
"There are sure signs Of the stir
rings of Chinese public opinion and
of Chinese national sentiment in ad-
vance of anything yet observed there"
the Bishop said.
Speaking of the relations of the
Japanese and Chinese, Bishop McCon-
nell said: "The Japanese have made
one notable failure and that is they
have failed to make friend of China.
One does not have to be in a Chinese
city long to note the intensity of the
enmity of the Chinese toward the Jap
anese. He is utterly blind who rates
this enmity as of no practical conse-
quence in view of Japanese superiority
in arms.
"The Chinese have found in the boy.
cott powerful weapon. With con-
summate genius for cooperate
and passive resistance, China can free
herself from all outside influence
which she chooses to ban--when the
time comes. And the time is coming
soon in the years just ahead when
China will inevitably come to a self
assertive, self-respecting independ-
ence of foreign nations. This is a
plain-as- day fact that stroller on
Chinese streets cannot miss.
"I do not thing there is danger of
another Boxer uprising. At least if
there is such a rising the weapons
used will not be swords and guns"
Bishop Mcconnell said that the
presence Of an ever-growing liberal
sentiment-not necessarily a liberal
party-in Japan is not a myth. Tf
Japan does not embark upon a career
Of imperialistic conquest of China in
the next ten years it is not likely thai
she ever WILL" he declared. "By 1882
the democratic forces will probably
be, if not irresistible at least so eff
fective as to make it impossible for
war plans to be carried through in the
old high handed fashion.
