of being the artisan for the revival
Of an entente between Britain and
France in London, and was willing TO
pay a heavy price for the realization OF
his dream. We never believed it pos

freedom of action by readjusting his

The result may be break between

Europe Under Dawes Plan Will
Compete With american Goods
Change in Trade Conditions abroad
Must Be Gradual, Says Babson.
Italy NO,u in Best Position.

Will undoubtedly be considerable
buying of raw materials, food stuffs
etc, in the United States by contin-
entail Europe in the year following
the reparations settlement. Just how
long this will continue and to what
extent il may go depends upon the
success which those countries have
in restoring a balanced condition of
trade and industry. The recovery
and return of industrial prosperity in
Europe, of course, carries with 1t
competition for our industries in this
country.
The only way that Europe will get
of it's feet restore it's money to parity
on exchange, and really come back
into prosperity, is by producing and
selling in the markets of the world
more than it consumes. I look, there
fore, for active competition in all of
the foreign markets of the world
where our merchants and manu-
facturers meet with Germany, Italy,
Belgium and France. / do not how
ever, believe that England will offer
active competition in the immediate
future
Cheap Labor VS.. Cheap Money.
If you would estimate the effect of
this competition in any specific line
Of industry, examine the labor cost
its material and other operating
costs. Europe viii have the advant-
age OF cheap labor and will compete
kcenly in lines where labor repre-
sents large factor in production ex-
pense. The United States VIII have
the advantage of cheap money and
hold its own in mass production where
great capital investments are ncces-
sary. We will continue to lead the
world in in, inh 1aI i, .,
relatively small item.
There are two means of protect
ing ourselves against losing any
thing by this new development in
Europe. We can build up a high
tariff wall and attempt to maintain
high prices here or we can take the
opposite course and try to meet ;hls
competition by increasing our .ffi-
cjency and lowering production Costs

Los ANGELES, Calf, September g.
Mothers Of two of the globe-tour-
ing American flyers last night used
the radio in an attempt to speak a
few words Of welcome and maternal
affection to their sons who today re-
turned to the United States.
Standing at the transmitter OF

the ether:
II am glad to be able to welcome
you, Lowell. back to the United

I am proud Of you. because l am
an American and because l am your

She was followed by Mrs. Roberta

that her heart was "overflowing with
pride that you have played we'll so
fine a part in your country's achieve
ment and history"
The mothers hoped that their sons
might be near receiving sets, but
asked that their messages be relayed

COPENHAGEN, September 6.-The
Danish vessel Gertrud Rask, with the
American flyer, Schulze, on board,
has returned here. Lieut.. Schulze
was in charge of the attempts to
establish supply depots at Angmasa-
lik, Greenland, for the American
world flyers. In an interview
Schulze declared that there was no
sense in the attacks of some Ameri-
can newspapers directed against the
Danish government and Greenlandish
companies. charging that they had
delayed the trip of the American
aviators. Both had done whatever
they could to aid, he said
The Gertrud Rask was dispatched
to Greenland two weeks before she
was due to sail, to please the Amer
leans. although experts knew it would
be difficult to get through the ice
at that time. Schultz added that
he had given up the laying out Of
supply depots because the ship ar
rived too late at Angmaghalik, and
that when he saw the waters about
that harbor he was perfectly aware
airplanes could not land there He
then wired Reykjavik telling the
flyers to take the route via Frede-
riksdal.
There is no reason for any at
tack on the Danish authorities" he
concluded. "They have given US all
kinds of support and treated us ex-
tremely well both in Denmark and
