BUSINESS DEEPLY
/ T|NGES j. S. ROLE
IN LATIN AMERICA
Whole of Industry Feels Any
Changes in Nations to
South.
Times WASHINGTON Bureau.

ISk2 Net0 YORK Avenue
WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-En.
tlrely new commercial problems face
the administration in the present
Latin-American crisis.
once in such affairs the limited
states had only to consider the vveI.
rare of few huge corporations oper-
atlng below the Rio Grande.
Ioday political developments in
Central and South America affect
not only these special corporations
but the whole of American Industry
and thousands of small American
investors.
The southern republics are TODAY
consuming billions of dollars of,
American exports. During 1926 ex.
ports to South America probably
totaled nearly $45 900 900, the largest
volume in history. With European
nations getting back to a pre.war
industrial basis, it has become in
creasingly important for the United
States to hold tight to her southern
markets. Any diplomatic blunder
that resulted in Latin trade discrim.
nation against American-made pro-
ducts would be almost a national
catastrophe. A
Huge Export Increase
Mexico during 1925 consumed
100000 of American exports, or
2.9 per cent of the total Of all coun.
tries. this being a 173 per cent in.
crease over the five-year average
for 1904. Central American re-
publics consumed $72, 10000 a "a
percent increase. Nicaragua, despite
years of revolution, has been one of
the best customers, about 20 per cent
of her imports coming from the
United States.
That is one side Of the picture. The
other side is that American investors
today own an estimated 81, 086 ,00O,-
600 worth of national, state and mu-
nicipal bonds issued in Latin-Amer-
lea. These thousands of small in
vestors are possibly anxious that
Latin governments be given fair
play, that few corporations not
be given advantages to the detriment
of all other interests.
Bonds Held In u. s.
Included in the Latin bonds out.
standing in the United States are
100000 Mexican and $3,250,O0O
Nicaraguan.
Even when only the American
corporations operating on Latin.
American soil are considered, there
are still problems.
The total American investment
in Mexico is placed roughly at ST.
ESQ 100000 of this, only about $47S,-
100000 is in oil property. There is
$50,000,000 invested in retail stores,
dependent on Mexican peace and
prosperity. There is $4,000, 900 in
government bonds, exclusive -
those outstanding in the UrNB
States. There is $1O,0OOOOO in Mex
lean public utilities; $200,000,0C0 in
plantations; $16O,O00,OOO in railroads.
What pleases the oil men may not
please the other investors at all.

RIVER AIDS GOVERNMENT
Leaves Old Channel With Bed Of
Fertile Loan

LEAVENWORTH, Kan, Jan. &c.
The Missouri River has enforced
the United States Government by
several acres of rich farm land
here. The Federal Penitentiary here
owns an island in the Missouri and
up to a short time ago, boats wen
employed to reach the island.
But the Missouri has done away
with this necessity. The river has
cut back on the side of the island
opposite to Leavennworth and has
left the channel on the penitentiary
side dry. Contrary to ordinary ex
pectations, the dry channel is moi
rock or sandy but is rich fertile
loan which prison authorities state
can be used to advantage.

port business is steadily increasing
and Dodge Brothers export bust
ness this fall has run 80 per cent

Dodge Brothers securities are
selling far below their value, which
has materially increased in the
past two years. The company has
an cared surplus OF about $4,000,

By q wide margin in the first nine

Nearing the close Of the most sue
cessfuI year in its history, and with
its position outstanding 81 the
worlds largest builder of gear shift
cars and trucks. the Chevrolet Motor
company this week rounded = is
sixteenth year Of existence.
Named for Louis Chevrolet, well
known race driver Of an early decaoe
and active figure during the infancy
OF the automotive industry, the
Chevrolet Motor company Of Aienl-
gan was organized on November .
1911.
That year five cars were built.
This year one million cars VIII De
built-m0re than the combined OUT
put for the first eleven years o. the
company's existence.
That first year n handful OF men
worked in an obscure factory al west
Grand Boulevard snd the Niaduet,
Detroit, TO turn out mostly BY hand
methods those first five cars. To-Day
more than 1000 people are directly
employed IN producing, selling ana
~servieing Chevrolet cars.
Today eleven great factories-ex-
elusive Of export operations-are run

Of Chevrolets infinitely superior 70,
and listing at ~one-fcuEth the cost Of
those first cars.
The aRoval Mail" and Baby
Grand models brought Chevrolet
wide popularity in the early days,
but the sa4g01 model, so named be-
cause II listed At $500, placed the
definitely in the field As q
volume producer Of motor cars. That
was in 1915. That year 70,70l cars
were built.
Shortly afterward the first assem-
bly, plant began production at Oak
land, Calf. 10 supply the West Coast.
Seven more such plants have since
been erected. and one Is now in pro-
cess Of construction at Atlanta, Ca
These are located at strategic points
throughout the country 70 rerTer re

purchaser.
General Motors took over Chevro-
let in 1918, with wide expansion fol-
lowing. In 1925 for the first time
volume exceeded the half million
mark. The 1929 production was
7s2,147 cars and trucks. That record
was equailed this year on August II,
and company officials look forward
confidently to one million units IN

Knudsen, president and general
manager. commented upon the extra
ordinary production and sales rec
ords the company has enioved in its
comparatively short life. These rec

placed in Chevrolet and its cars
by the public.
This attitude. Mr.. Knudson pointed
out, Is a deep source Of qualification

company under obligation 70 adhere

which the public has learned 20 ex-
rect Of all Chevrolet products. The
