The discussion then turned to CO.

Augusta. especially along the line
Of marketing their products. This
discussion arose from a letter pre-
sented ty Mr.. Clarke from the
production of potatoes all over
the United States and asking CO.

Augusta Chamber
Hears u. S. Expert
on Commerce Question

Stressing the value of foreign
trade to Maine manufacturers, and
explaining now easily overseas orders
may be obtained. Lynn w. Meekins,
New England manager of the United
States Bureau of Foreign and Do
nestle Commerce, told the members
Of the Augusta Chamber of Com
merce at their noon meeting yester-
day at the Willow restaurant, just
what the Government is doing to as
sist American manufacturers to sell
their products abroad.
TN many countries there is a
growing demand for Names leading
products, and business men in this
State would do we'll to look into
these markets for three good reasons.
First, foreign trade is prosperity in
surance. When business is dull in
the United States, foreign orders
keep factories going. Second, Maine
is nearer to foreign markets than
most of our states. Many products
can be delivered abroad at a lower
cost than in many parts of our do
nestle market. Third, the State of
Maine has spent s1,0O0,OO0 on a
splendid pier at Portland, where
ocean steamers can collect the many
kinds of goods made in Maine and
deliver them to all parts of the
world.
'The Bureau Of Foreign and Do
nestle Commerce, with an office in
Boston covering the New England
States, offers to Maine business men
its-trade- building service. We re-
ceive inquiries from foreign NOR
chants who want to buy your goods.
