young men who blend diplomacy
with business acumen.
United States trade with South
America dropped from $4,000, OOO,-
600 in 1929 to 81 ,467, 600, 900 in 1880.

government officials are watching
with interest the South American
tour Of the prince Of Wales and
Prince George, but they apparently
are not worried at the bid of the
heir Of the British empire for Latin
American trade.
The prince was in South America
four years ago, and British imports
gradually have developed since that
time, while United States trade
gradually increased.
All trade is of now with the
worldwide depression, but the
United States continues to get the
larger share.
The prince took his own car to
South America this time. He made

The Society for the Prevention Of
Crime, in a letter to individual mem

specific charges against Walker,
understood to be of the same ma
ture, laxity and incompetence, as
those against Grain.
1t was rumored that the City Club,
author Of the formal charges against
Grain, also is considering filing
charges against the mayor.
Urge United Front
AT the same time the New York
City Congregational Church Asso-
citation, epreSenting forty-two
churches, moved for united protests
BY Professionals, Catholics and Jews
against civic corruption. A resolution
was adopted Tuesday night asking
Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt to
take immediate action.
The resolution declared it is the
religious duty of every citizen to
assist in creating such public
sentiment as will not tolerate bribery
and will demand honesty in all
quarters Of civic life"
Meanwhile, the Vivian Gordon
murder case, one of the direct causes
of the whole outburst against the
city administration, produced a
sensation for the first time in
several days, but apparently was still
no nearer a solution than when it
first started.

The records of an examination

in 1923 during an investigation of

The case concerned Joseph Rad

who were indicted on charges of
grand larceny. Miss Gordon, APP

witness, told Bohan that Radlow
had swindled her out of $4,000 and
that she was "in fear of him"
Radlow is a cousin of John A.

woman, who is held with Cohen in

new IDEA SAVES
SILK HOSE

Expensive at best, silk hose and
undergarments are made doubly so
by improper washing. A fashion
expert has found a new, simple way
to correct this.
She adds a tablespoonful of En-
engine to every quart of lukewarm,
soapy water. Then she washes and
rinses the articles as usual. The
addition of Energine removes all the
body excretions that soften and rot
silk.
The results are amazing. Not
only does this method give new
cleanliness and freshness with orig
inal color revived, but actually gives
longer life to hose and undergar-
ments. Try this new method. It's
easier and quicker than just soap
and water alone, means less rubbing
and insures extra wear that will
surprise you.
Energine is unexcelled. also, for
quickly removing all dirt and grease
spots from dresses, hats, gloves,
shoes, etc. Large can 35 cents at
