BUSINESS BOOMS

Washington, Dec. 5.-The expected
business boom may not materialize
due to the inadequacy of railroad
equipment delegates to the eighteenth
convention of tn National Rivrs and
HarborS congress warned today. The
convention opens here tomorrow for a
two days session.
Development of the waterways of
the country and extended good roads
work from the solution to the prob
lem, the convention will hold.
Experts on railroads, waterways
and road transportation are on the
program of speakers. From their
speeches the congress will prepare a
development program for submission
to the administration and business at
large.
The railroads alone cannot now
meet the transportation demands of
business, John H. Small, president Of
the congress, stated. When business,
after some two ears of stagnation,
really hits it sstride, transportation
jam of almost unprecedented proper
lions will develop he fears.
"The American transportation prob
lem, unless all signs fail, will be more
serious in the near future than ever
before in time of peace" Small stat
ed. at is a problem that is many
sided and bristling with difficulties;
but if the progress Of the nation is to
continue and its prosperity is to be
maintained, the true solution must be
found. This convention is called with
the hope and the expectation that its
deliberations will contribute to this
end"
Small quoted Yice-Prosidenr Lee of
the PENNSYLVANIA as stating that the
next revival of business probably
would develop the most serious conges-
ton of railroad trafiic and the great
est inadequacy of railroad facilities
ever experienced in the history OF the
country. Lee pictured business men
! in a panic and losing sight of rats IN
/ their clamor for service.
Delegates to the convention declare
+ it is folly for the country to place de,
rendence upon single method OF
transportatiou'-the railroads and
urge immediate steps to increase wa
ter facilities. More good roads woui'
assist in solving the problem, the!

WASHINGTON CONFERENCE
inv United pret1g,)


Washington, Dec. 5--The confer
ence of Central American states con-
vening in Washington yesterday has
as its first aim the negotiation Of
treaty, or treaties, to make effective
those provisions Of the treaties sign
cd at Washington in December, 1907,
which experience has shown to be ef-
fective in maintaining friendly rela-
tons ard cooperation among the
Central American states.
The origin of the treaties of 1907
and their purpose now therefore be
come Of primary importance.
In 1907 a war ended between Hon
duras and Nicaragua. Shortly after
ward a conflict threatened between
Nicaragua and Salvador. To avert
this conflict peace conference was
proposed by President Roosevelt and
President Porfirio Diaz of Mexico,
After a preliminary conference in
September, a formal conference was
convened in November and December
at Washington. The participants
were delegates Of the five Central Am
erican Republics and diplomats of the
United States and Mexico.
The Importance Of achievements of
the conference Of 1901 were: 4 treaty
of peace and amity stating that the
contracting parties sought to pre-
serve peace. and pleGging adjustment
of differences; second, supplement
tary convention aiming To discourage
the reelection of presidents and other
wise to curb revolutions; third, the
establishment of a permanent tribunal
at Carriage, in Costa Rica, compris-
Ing one delegate from each state to
take action regarding certain speci-
dCd controversies.
Although these arrangements had
some effect in promoting political
stability in Central America, their
AIMS were never entirely fulfilled.
During the last fifteen years vari-
Gus political movements have occur
red among the five republics, most
important of which were steps to-
wards Central American union. This
union could not be completed partly
because Of the nonparticipation of
Nicaragua, and during the last two
years there has been general condi-
ton of political unrest among the
Central Republics.
Upon the initiative of Nicaragua, a
meeting was held last August 20,
aboard the L. S. 5. Tacoma, in Fon-
SEGA Bay, between the presidents Of
Nicaragua, Honduras and Salvador,
looking toward the establishment of
peaceful relations between these three
countries. The call for the present
conference at Washington is the re
suit OF that conference.
At the meeting aboard the Ia
coma, the governments OF Guatemala
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1922-12-05

and Costa Riea were invited to acceot
the agreement reached there. They
replied that such adherence was not
necessary as they regarded the treaty
OF 1907 as still in force and intended
to abide by it's provisions.
This revelation, of unanimous
wish for peaceful solution Of Central
American difficulties paved the way
for the United States State Depart
ment to issue an invitation for new
conference at Washington, in which
the former treaties would be revised
and enlarged and other important
matters discussed.
The result was the issuance of an
invitation through the American Le-
cations in capitols of the five Central
American Republics for the confer
ence now convened.

Cumulative production of cellulose

declare The new invention obtains
cellulose from vegetable substances
Of alinos. all kinds and available al
most everywhere, especially in the
tropical and subtropIcal regions OF

The most common things used IN
this cellulose producing machine are
reeds, rushes, flax stems, savannah
grass, sugar cane, jute and bamboo.
Almost any kind Of grain stems will
pass.
The actual manufacture requires
only two hours and is much more
inexpensive than obtaining wood pulp
from trees. Another big advantage
lies in the neyer-enGing availability
of such reeds and canes, as new crops
are continually available at all sea-
sons of the year in various parts of
the world. This is a decided adyant-
age over the eighty years required to
bring a tree to such maturity as to
make good wood pulp material
The price of print paper made by
this process will be go per cent less

by this new process. More than $50,
