IMPRESSED BY COOPERATION


 The most impressive thing l found in New Orleans IS the unlYer- sal cooperation and pride in the de- velopment of their port,' said H.

Milner. T had special opportn- nifty to see the wonderful inside workings of the organizations in New Orleans which are doing so much for their port development. and it was highly instructive week. It was especially impressive to see how every man in the city puts himself out to do anything that will help the port. There was also opportunity to meet representatives from the other great American ports and to learn what they are doing in the develop ment Of business.
 Elaborate Entertainment.
 The entertainment features were arranged on an elaborate scale. There were group meetings at which man specially interested in export business for any particular foreign country could get full and accurate information about how to proceed.

If a visitor had a wish to carry on bust ness of any special kind with any particular country, one of these eX- perts was assigned to him to go over his problems and give him the bene- fit of the best advice. l happened in to one of the group meetings ana noted that nothing was being dis cussed except business with Russia.
 "A visitor who impressed me was the traffic manager of the port oi Portland. Ore. It was amazing to find that the manage of this port. which is so far inland. maintain rep resentatives and offices not only in New Orleans New York and other important American ports, but have three in South America, one in Liv- erpool, one in the Straits Settle nents, one in Japan and one in China, all of whom are doing noth- ing except to develop business for the port of Portland.
