ness that 1923 will be year OF more
than normal expansion in foreign
trade. The United States has ceased
to be q customer first. Today this
country Is viewed as q menace by the
business men of foreign nations.
For years Americas infant industries
shvered with fear at the thought Of
competition from the loW-priced labor
of Europe and the Orient, but now
those same industries are beating the
foreign nations at their own game and
at the same time are paying the high
est wages ever known in the history
of the world
The automobile industry Is one of the
largest and most important in this
country. The shipments and sales OF
American made cars, accessories and
tires have gained at least 25 per cent
as compared with this time last year,
and the growth of this trade has only
begun. America is competing success
fully with England, not only In Africa,
the near East and the Far East. but in
Canada. Australia and New Zealand,
American cars are seeping into France,
Italy and Germany despite unfaVorable
tariff restrictions and are dominating
South American markets despite efforts
of other producing countries.
Eye Appeal" Successful.
The appeal which has been success
full according to American manufac-
turers and sold French goods to Ameri-
can women for decades is eye appeal.
Office equipment and business machines
are only a step behind the automobile
in gaining foreign favor.
Disturbed conditions in China. finan-
cial trouble in Japan and lower prices
for some principal commodities were
chief factors In restraining America s
trade with the Orient in 1927. But the
trend of shiploadings from San Fran
cisco, Portland and Seattle. together
with the traffic through The Panama
Canal. indicates that trade will expert

Frigidaire is quiet

Constant improvement and refinement
have made the new Frigidaire unbelievably
quiet. A few feet away the hushed purr
cf its efficient motor is almost inaudible
Not only that, but il stays quiet, even after
long service. In achieving quiet operation
Frigidaire engineers have not lessened the
power nor resorted to methods which
would reduce the dependability or acces.
sibility OF any mechanical parts.

ence the normal expansion this year,
although economic and political con-
ditions In the East cannot be predicted
safely. even now
The reduced buying power OF China
was reflected sharply in sales of two
American products, tobacco and kero-
sene. In 1926 nearly three billion
American cigarettes we're shipped to
China through San Francisco. In 1927
these shipments dropped to three
quarters of a billion. Leaf tobacco
shipments fell off from 100000 to
7,000,000 pounds. Kerosene shipments
out of San Francisco, most OF them
consigned TO China, fell from 2,215,000
TO $4,000 barrels.
Japanese Trade Drops.
Trade with Japan fell off less sharp
ly in special commodities, but more
products were affected The cotton
oil and oil products shipments from
San Pedro the port of Los Angeles
arc gaining steadily. and this trade
showed a gain for the last year which
Is still being maintained. The Wash

School Kids Again Haue Priuileges Of
 Seward 4. (. Gyn,

In accordance with the custom es- |tablished some three years ago, the
 Seward City Council last night again provided for the physical training of the pupils of the Seward High and grammer schools by entering into an arrangement with the Seward Athlet- lie Club whereby the children might make use of the gym at stated hours fius days of the week. Under the arrangement the city has agreed to pay part of the rent for the gym nasium for the next four months, set ting that limit because of the possi-
 bility of the children having a gym of their own with the completion of
 the new school building. But if such should not be the case, it was i'm pliedly agreed that the arrangement
 would be continued.
 This method has proved a very sat Iisfactory arrangement for the good of the pupils of the schools, Superin- tendent Bath told the Council last night, and the youngsters take full advantage of it. They are allowed the gym from 3:3O to 5 o'clock five |days of the week and as matter of fact on Saturday they are there neer- ly all day and since in the cold and |snowy weather there is no place else to disport themselves. In addition the high school basket ball players have their practice nights and hold a
 S; ries of interesting games during the
 winter.
