THEABCOF
FOREIGN TRADE

Political economists have figured
that the war produced vacuum IN the
worlds buying power approximately
the purchasing power Of five million
men. The center of the disturbance
which. produced this vacuum was, OF
course, Continental Europe. There
fore the vacuum is likewise in the
same place. Until that vacuum re-
approaches normality there is bound
to be dislocation in the worlds mar
kets.
From the viewpoint of the United
States in its relHiOn to foreign trade,
this dislocation has had the direct eff
feet of creating potential mar kets
for United States products where
heretofore none existed. Notably tins
is true of the Pan-American countries.
lii the Spanish speaking countries OF
South America prior to the war, Ger
many and Great Britain easily held
sway in the foreign trade markets.
In almost equal measure this was
true with the Portuguese speaking
countries such as Brazil.
During and since the war, how
ever, there has been a golden oppor-
tunity for the United States in South
America. The full possibilities have
not been realized but far-Seeing bust
ness men in the United States have
seized the opportunity thus offered
and have gained a fOothold from
which they cannot be moved.
But i'm other parts of the world
where American goods before the wal
were virtually unknown, now at least
they are known and in many cases
the demand for them is apparent
while in many other cases the demand
is there but needs to be awakened, The
export business of the United States
must have a missionary branch tC
supplement the excellent work which
the Government itself through the
Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Com
merce, at Washington, is carrying on
Associations of manufacturers in the
United States will find it well wOrti
their while to sponsor these mission
aries to the new market of the world
There are q number Of them now al
work. but the very fundamental prin-
ciple Of foreign trade calls for unit
ed effort to sell the United States anc
its products in lands beyond the seas
Statistics of imports and exports
for the calendar year of 1921, as re-
Gently compiled, show a tremendous
shrinkage in quantities and in values
but in almost every case the reduc'
ton in quantity. This condition nat
urally followed the economic uphea
val of 1920 and 1921, but signih-
cant feature appears in an analysis
of the figures wherein il is shown that
the area of distribution of exported
goods from the United States was far
greater in 1921 than in 1920.
A considerable proportion of this
new found business territory is in
countries where heretofore the balance
of international trade has been
against the United States. Therefore
the reimbursement has been favorable
20 this country. Then again, trade
conditions with our neighbors on he
north in the Dominion of Canada have
steadily increased in volume in the
last eighteen months. 1t now seems
possible to predict that given enthus-
iastic support and the gospel of for
eign trade. the time is not far distant
when the United States will dominate
markets abroad where now ITS influe-
nee is lust beginning to be felt.

OF VITAL INTEREST
 TO THE LADIES

With Paris determinedly persist ing in reestablishing the long skirt, and Paris usually wins out, manu- facturers in this country are now bending their efforts nearer the ground.
 According to Day- d N. Mosessohn. executive director of the associated Dress Industries of America, the Ma tional Chamber of Commerce of the dress industry, makers are now preparing their fall lines" he said, and the tendencies are unmistak- ably for longer skirts. We'll dress ed women on Fifth avenue and at the fashionable resorts are all wear ing skirts in line with the Paris edict. Seven or eight inches from the ground is recognized as the" length in style circles. This applies, with slight modification, to suit skirts, dress skirts and evening skirts.
 "The fapper will probably con tinue to wear the knee length skirt until she is alone in her extreme style and some manufacturers Of dresses will probably cater to that class of trade. Tie manufacturers of dresses for the fashionable and the well dressed woman, however, will surely make their skirts long CT, although not quite so long as Paris decrees. The length will be a modification to about nine or eleven or twelve Inches. Hereto fore, fourteen to sixteen inches has been in vogue eyed in fashionable circles.
 Nine inches from the ground is practically ankle length. Twelve inches is a little be.ow the calf mus cle. but is much longer than imagin- ation would visualize it.
 There is also tendency toward fullness with the length. which per mits more freedom in walking when the skirt is long,"

 There's a lion overboard| This cry. coming from the deck of the liner Bayern, docked in the Hudson at New York. gave crowds thrill and sent them scurrylng to safety as the beast was pulled from the river by his keep CT and launch owner.
 Once ashore, the lion was too cold and wet to be feroclous. The less umid emerged from their hiding places to see him backed into his cage. The Bayern brought over a regular zoo.
 Dan. the trained lion, was in need uf exercise. His keeper led him on deck at the end of chain. Dan had not acquired his sea legs, and lurch of the vessel sent him tumbling over the side. The keeper grabbed a rope and yelled for launch. Dams rOars were drowning out the screams of passengers and the shrieks of tugs, when rope was slipped about his neck and he was pulled to the pier. He proved lions can swim.

SLIGHTLY BELOW
NORMAL WEATHER

For the third consecutive month, the mean temperature of the month inst closed has been below normal, according to the Weather Bureaus meteorological suEmary, and this was in spite of the abnormally warm weather that prevailed during the last four days of the month. With mean of 464 degrees, as against normal of 4S.O degrees, there was an average daily deficiency of l.6 degrees.
 The highest ten -perature of the month. T9 degrees on the 29th, was within one degree of the 26-year rec ord for May. which occurred in 1915. That month was noted for its warm weather. for there were 13 days on which the temperature rose to 70 degrees or above, while in May of this year there were only three such days. The lowest reading of she month. g degrees. occurred on the 7th and Sth. the latter date being seven days later than the average date of last freezing temperature in spring in Juneau. The Bureaus rec ords show that the latest date on which freezing temperature oc- cured in spring is June 6. in 1908, while in 1900 the last was on April 8.
 With a total of 5.l2 inches, the precipitation of he month was practically normal. ,he mean of past years being 3 24 inches Only a trace of snow occurred during the month. There were l9 days on which O.01 inch or more of rain fell. with 1.3T inches on the l4th-15th as the great est amount in 24 consecutive hours.
 That the Weathec Bureaus new location affords a better exposure for wind registration Is shown by lEe fact that the aver -Ee hourly wind movement for the month was - miles. while the highest average of any previous May since wind rec ords were started al 1917 was +.5 miles, in 1919. A velocity of 55 miles an hour for a 5-miuure .'oriod occurred on Sund~5. the 2lst, at about the time or ne fire on lower Front street. The highest peryious record for May wss 22 miles an hour.

The Middle Aass.

The Middle ages was a period of about q thousand years ln the history of Europe, beginning with the fall of the Roman empire in 4T6 A. D., and ending with the fall of the eastern Roman empire in 1543 A, D. The Middle ages include the years between the close of the classic times and the dawn of the modern era, and cOnstl- tuted the epoch of feudalism, chiyalry and the Crusades. According to Hal lam, the Middle ages comprise about 1000 years, from the invasion Of France by Clovis in 476 to that of Ma pies by Charles VIII In 14S4. From the close of the Middle ages came the invention of printing, the discovery of America and the revival of learning in the Fifteenth century.
