Americans Must
Awaken and Get
After Foreign Trade

Constantinople, Feb. 19.-(By MaiD.
All chambers Of commerce in
the United States will be asked
by the American Chamber of Com
merce here to cooperate in cam
paign to educate the American public
in the importance of foreign trade.
The project was set forth at the an
nual meeting of the American Cham
Der.
Rear Admiral Mark l.. Bristol, the
American High Commissioner, declared
in an address:
"All far-sightcd business men n.
nome and abroad must unite I'm cdu-
eating public sentiment in America
to knowledge that foreign markets
are essential to the prosperity of the
country.
This campaign of education must
be pushed with the least possible de-
lay because other countries are al
ready forging ahead and are making
distinct progress in spite Of the handi-
caps which large armies and unfav-
orable exchange rates have been to
them.
How TO do business in foreign
countries must be learned by Ameri-
cans as new lesson in commerce and
trade. 1t will take time for our
business men to train their foreign
agents. yet we cannot afford to wait
very long.
our competitors are playing q
game in which they have been trained

novices but we have never admitted
any possibility of failure and we

Rumor had it that Doughty was
suffering from some communicable
disease. This story is refuted by his

disease which is infectious. He suf-
fers somewhat from constipation ana
