the conference that in studying sim

should bear in mind the peculiar con-
ditions existing in the various coun-
tries. He described the situation in
Mexico with its long coast and prob

at preventing smuggling, as does the
effort of United States agents along
the border. He explained his only OBJ

United States, Great Britain, France,

After explaining the still unsettled
question of tnteralheds and intergov-
ernmental loans, he said:

Judgment, experienced and schooled In
the world Of politics, declare that
Locarno means the permanent ap-
peasement of Europe, new era; that
while there may be occasional en-
broilments, even sporadic armed con
fiicts, there will never again be any
great cataclysm on the continent OF
Europe; that within the lifetime of
our youth war will have become as
outworn as witchcraft. slavery and
duellinE. It Is true that Europe is
happily become more unified. The
| movement to break down the high
tariff barriers, built up by the growth
of nationalism in almost every Euro
pean country after the war, Is already
well under way. 1t is not inconceiv-
| able that Europe may some day be
come a great region Of free trade as
the United States is within its own
| borders. Such a development may
take a long time in coming; on the
| other hand, 1t may move much more
swiftly than we imagine. II 1t does,
we shall be able within a short span
| of years to witness Europe re-
stored industrious. stable. peaceful.
| far stronger In every way than II

future bright with promise.

Urges United Effort.
Suggestion that American industries
combine their efforts with European
and other manufacturing countries
to increase world consumption legiti-
mately was made by Roy D. Chaplin,
president of the National Automobile
Chamber of Commerce, who followed
Mr.. Lamont.
Mind YOU" he warned, this is
entirely different from any combina-
ton to divide up the trade OF the
world. It's purpose would be to en-
large world demand and keep all
production facilities busy"
Willis H. Booth, former president
Of the international Chamber OF Com.
merce. cited further evidence of in.
ternational cooperation in efforts to
solve general economic problems and
stimulate the flow OF trade. He ex.
planned the method by which the
question of trade barriers in Europe
has bene approached in preparation
