FOREIGNERS CLOSELY WATCHING
 SPREAD OF AMERICAN EXPORTS

BOSTON, May 30.-Foreign eco- homie opinion, reflected in com mercial journals of Asia, South America, Europe and the British dominions, appears increasingly spellbound by the American pano- rama.
 "An examination of the available data" says the London Economist, suggests that American manufac- tured exports so far have been mer- est wavelets compared with the tide that is to come"
 Trade statistics compiled by the New York Trust company are a vest pocket snapshot of the situa- ton that is causing industrial lead CTS abroad to take stock of the future.
 In the cary years of the century, for example, crude materials and crude foodstuffs constituted 42.5 per cent of the total exports from the United States. In 1928 this figure dropped to 31.5 per cent.
 In contrast, exports of manufac- tured and semi manufactured prod ucts were averaging 35.3 per cent of the total exports back in 1901, the statistics show This figure had grown to 60.1 per cent in 1928.
 Before 1922 the rate of increase was slow but in the last seven years the volume of manufactured products shipped to foreign buyers has increased 75 per cent.
 During the past year the volume of exports expanded 5.4 per cent, but the value of manufactured ex- ports grew at the rate of IA per cent. The total for 1928 was $5,- 129 100000, with m anufa c urers claiming an even greater share. It is the background of the picture, however, that must be examined closely.
 This background is the vast po- tential production of the United States. America always has been her own best customer. More than

WASHINGTON Y CENTER OF MEMORIAL DAY OBSERVANCE
LOOSE FLOWERS NOV POPULAR
 AS MEMORIAL DAY DECORATION

WASHINGTON, May 30.-Clust- CTS of loose blossoms strewn over the graves and artistic sprays and bouquets will supplant the old set pieces of harps and flags of form CT years at Arlington N tiona Cemetery today.
 Florists says the public taste in floral tributes is changing. Now beautiful Arlington is blanketed on Memorial Day with snowy peonies and glowing roses and gladioli. The flowers rest softly, carelessly on the graves of those of high or low rank.
 One leading florist annually raises 10000 peonies for use May 30. Most of them go to the great Ma tional Cemetery on the Potomac. Nowhere in the country are so many men of renown at rest.
 Private and official automobiles laden with floral tributes fill the road leading to the majestic city of the dead. Airplanes move above the beautiful tree covered slopes.
 The most imposing tributes are at the tome of the Unknown Sol- dier Yet even here sprays and loose bouquets of flowers are sup

planting the set pieces which often were placed on the tomb a few years ago.
 One leading Washington florist supplies between 400 and 500 sprays and bouquets, averaging about $10 apiece in price, for Arlington Gene tery Memorial Day. The only elab- crate piece ordered annually from this florist is huge star which is the tribute of the Gold Star Mothers of America.
 Nobody knows who leaves most of the Memorial Day flowers at Arlington or why they are left on certain graves more than others. There is well worn path leading to the hill top where Admiral Peary and Floyd Bennett rest. Their resting places always are masses of flowers on May 30.
 Gay fragrant blossoms are heaped around the cold grey bases of imposing monuments to generals. They blanket the modest last rest ing places of the heroes of the Maine, where the little white head stones are as alike as the uniforms of the sailors who went down in Havana harbor many years ago.

YOUNGER MEN ASSUME COMMAND
 OF MEMORIAL DAY ACTIVITIES

WASHINGTON, May 3o.-Blue uniforms of the G. A. R. will be seen in boxes in the white marble ampitheatre at Arlington national cemetery today.
 As the exercises there set a sol- chm note for similar services over the nation, younger veterans of other wars will assume the respon- sibility of the day. When Presi- dent Hoover makes his address he will see white-haired survivors of Gettysburg and Bull Run who now prefer a place of honor to active participation.
 All in their eighties, the Grand Army survivors will watch the SOL chm presentation of the colors. They will listen to a song: There Is No Death" Their thoughts will stray out among the orderly miles of glistening white stones which mark this majestic bivouac or the QeaQ.
 Only a few of the civil war vet erans will take an active part in the program. Following the as- sembly call by bugler of the ma rine band, Hosea B. Moulton, 85, past commander of the G. A. R., will give the call to order MT. Moulton enlisted in New Hamp- shire and was the youngest man in his regiment He was at Bull Run and Gettysburg and was three times wounded in action.

BOSTON, May 30.-Eleven years from the day Of the march of the End Division toward Chateau -Thier- ry, that famous fighting unit will gather in Boston for it's national reunion.
 The reunion will take place two days, May S1 and June l.
 Even the environment of stately, time-mellowed Boston will not pre- vent tbe gashsring war veterans from reca1ling th4 tense days in France, when they marched 30,o00 doughboys and United States ma rines, to check the German advance on Paris.
 And many an anecdote may be recalled of the mighty counter stroke in which they wrested from the enemy, after days of bitter fighting, Bouresches, Belleau woods and the VauX.
 Many of the divisions prominent leaders and increasing numbers of doughboys and marines have sig nified their intention of attending.
 Among these are Maj. General James G. Harbord, commander of the division during the attack on Belleau wood; Maj. Gen. Preston Brown, chief of staff of the di- vision and now commander of the 1st corps area.
 A feature of the reunion will be announcement by the historical committee that the Belleau wood monograph has been completed. The monograph is from the pen of Capt. John w. Thomson, jr., of the marine corps, known as an au- thor, illustrator, and it's statements were checked against German army records.
 The work is third in series of five which will make up history of the 2nd Division.

One Week Gut Of a,ned- ule Time of Yukon and
 Alaska Other Changes

Revising it's scheduled to meet the emergency created by the re- cent sinking of the Aleutian, the Alaska Steamship Company has an- nounced that the steamers Alaska and Yukon will sail from Seattle every two weeks instead of a three week turn-around, according to As sociated Press despatches received today by The Empire. The changes, it was said, were necessary in order ito take care of the passenger bookings for the summer months of the foundered Aleutian.
 Because of the necessary quick turn around, the only regular ports of call for the Alaska and Yukon will be Ketchikan Wrangell, Ju- mean, Cordova, Latouche, Valdez and Seward. This eliminates all cannery ports.
 Alameda to Transfer For June and July, the Alaska and Yukon will serve Western ports |unaided. But early in August this service will be augmented by the transfer of the steamer Alameda from the Southeastern Alaska route to include Southwestern ports of call.
 All sailings Of the Alaska and Yukon, beginning with that of June from Seattle will be made Sunday mornings instead of Sat- urday. The Alaska and Yukon will arrive at Seward the Saturday fol- lowing their sailing days and will depart scuthbound from that port the same night, arriving at Seattle the following Friday.
 Add Freight Service
 To act as feeders to the main routes, freighters will be run on regular routes in both Southeast fern and Southwestern Alaska. The Latouche will serve Drier Bay, Nell lie Juan, Port Ashton, Port San Juan, Port Benny, Thumb Bay, and Crab Bay, cannery ports of South western Alaska. This freighter will connect with liners at Seward.
 The Redondo and Latouche will leave Seattle June 4, to start serv- ice.

WASHINGTON, May 30 - The National Capital is today the cen ter of the Nations observance of Memorial Day with President Hoo- yer the central figure. A patriotic pageant has been arranged to ex- press gratitude to those who have in the past offered their lives in defense of honor and the country's existence.
 A hush of reverent tribute lays over the City Governmental activ- ity is stilled. Congress adjourned, and many members are away to speak at services elsewhere.
 President Hoover chose the day to make his second address since he took office. He spoke at the ampitheatre at Arlington National Cemetery.
 The President declared that if the Kellogg -Briand Peace Pact full fills it's purpose the nations must clothe faith and realism with ac- tion and that action must march the memorable tread of common sense to accomplishment If this declaration really represents the aspirations of the peoples of the world. if this covenant be genuine proof that the world has renounced war as an instrument of national policy, it means at once an aban- donment of the aggressive use of the army by every signatory i1a- tion. thus becoming sincere dec- laration that armament hereafter will be used for defense only"

Human Footprints
 In Rock to Be Saved

PIERRE, s. D., May 30.-Medi- cine rock, the huge limestone bould- CT in which strange footprints ap- pear, will be preserved by the South Dakota Historical Society.
 Mrs. Agnes B. Whitlock has giv- en the 1ee-acre tract in which it stands to the State.
 Indians believed that the foot prints were made by the Great Spirit, and the Sioux frequently held ceremonies at the rock and buried gifts by it before entering battles. Some authorities say the tracks may have been made by prehistoric men. Others believe they were cut in the rock by some ancient Indian.
 There are five impressions, each good likeness of the imprint of a human foot.

90 per cent of all goods produced in the United States never leave the country. Whatever prestige America has gained as purveyor to the world has been through the disposal abroad of less than a tenth of her output.
 Meanwhile production is increas- ing at a rate that requires con- stantly widening foreign market horizons.
 Automobiles, machinery and pe- troleum continue to form the chief bulk of exports, but other products of industry are becoming more and more important factors.

Memorial Day observance entails more than a sentimental expression of remembrance, it bespeaks a will lingness of all Americans to lay down their lives if necessary in defense of the country which has been perpetuated and kept alive by the supreme sacrifices of the dead of all wars honored on this day, declared R. E. Robertson in an ad- dress made today at Memorial Day exercises at Elks Hall.
 The hall was well filled, many attending the exercises there and other ceremonies held under the auspices of Afford John Bradford Post No. 4, American Legion.
 Tribute to Dead
 MT. Robertson said:
 'The years roll swiftly around their charted course. More than ten years have elapsed since that fierce struggle at Belleau Wood and since that successful push across the St. Mihiel salient; much more than quarter of a century has passed since Roosevelt gal lantly charged up San Juan Hill and since Dewey audaciously bot tied up the enemy fleet in Manila Bay; more than three score years have been recorded on the pages of history since that interfractricidal conflict on the fields of Gettysburg, since the victorious blue swept up . Chickamauga Ridge, since Sher- Sman marched to the sea.
 Again we convene to perpetuate the memories of the honored dead to memorialize the deeds of those brave men who, upon the gum swept battlefield, whether upon land or sea, paid the supreme sac rifice in their country's need; to eosazs.s .ssssl'essts tssse 4ass'ae of sthei7 equally brave comrades, who, after wars alarms had ceased, have trod that path from whence there is no return.
 Lays Greater Obligation
 Annually we gather to lay flow CTS upon their graves that we, the humble citizens of a great nation, may retain fresh in our thoughts the gallant deeds, the courageous actions, the unstinting sacrifices of them-the nations defenders.
 But, more than that = today brings to us a greater obligation than that of a sweet, sentiment of a single days duration. The occasion imposes upon us more solemn duty, worthier duty, a higher duty than simply to renew, with green leaves and white flow CTS, the dried and scared bouquets that have withered during the year

British Business Is Counting Upon Higher
 Tariff After Election
By BATES RANEY GA. P. Staff Writer)

LONDON, May 30.-With both major political parties, the Con- servatives and Laborites, commit ted to safeguarding of industry in varying degrees, leaders of big business in Great Britain are count ing upon aid from further tariff barriers in planning their course after the general election being held today.
 The Liberals are sticking to the traditional free trade policy of the United Kingdom, but only sur prising landslide would give that party stronger position than that of possibly holding the balance of power in the new parliament.
 The economic side of the cam paign has in some respects been reminiscent of the days when "the full dinner pail" was a vital political slogan in the United States, but without mention of protection" in speeches and platforms. The Eng fish, while showing symptoms of abandoning free trade, still shy at using the American word, prefer ring the euphemism, safeguard ing
 A more direct United States in terest in this phase of Great Brit aims policy can be found in the probable effect of higher tariff bar riers upon the diminishing Ameri- can trade balance.
 Trade With U. s.
 In 1925 the United States sold $1 .O33 ,856 ,369 worth of merchandise to Great Britain and bought $412,- 704 ,535 worth, leaving a trade bal ance of $621 ,l51 ,834 in favor of the United States. The Empire Mar keting Board then began to spend millions in strengthening the Buy British Goods" movement, and 1t is now considered almost unpatriot- ic to buy foreign goods of any de- scription.
 By 1926 the sales of American goods in the United Kingdom had dropped to $972. .384.840. At the same time American imports from England, Ireland Scotland n d Wales were down to $333 ,189, ,536, reducing the trade balance to $589,- 195 ,304. a loss of $32,s56,500.
 Economic experts predict tn at erection of tariff walls around the United Kingdom will accelerate the dimlnution of this balance.
 In this respect it is interesting to no.e than neither the Conservatives nor the Laborites have any thought of tariff for revenue. All that is asked in any case is an adequate safeguarding against foreign goods which compete with British indus tries in the home market. This question has already caused considerable trouble to Prime Min ister Stanley Baldwin. He lost one election because he went to the country in favor of safeguarding when the people were not prepared for it. The first Labor govern

will give the invocation.
 The program will be in charge of the Grand Army of the Repub- lie Memorial Day Corporation, which includes besides the G. A. R. the United Spanish American war veterans, the veterans of foreign wars, and the American Legion.
 Finding the Memorial day pro- grams too much for their waning strength, the local civil war vet erans appealed to government au- thorities. AS a result the new or- ganization was formed, with MT. Moulton as president.
