 Buying Logic Some La tin Americans have stressed the desirability of buying only from those why buy from us meaning Europeans.
 But" says Dr. Julius Klein, As sistant Secretary of Commerce, "the fact is that Latin American coun- tries sell to us considerably more than they purchase from us."
 United States trade with South America has increased tremendous ly since the World war, passing Germany and the United Kingdom, which held second and first placec, respectively.
 In 1913, American exports tc South America were valued at Sl77,- 627000; the exports of the JnitAd Kingdom were $307,918,00O, and of Germany, $200,73O,000. In 1927, our exports were O,958,0O0, the United Kingdom, $334, TAI ,OO0, ard Germany, $l92, AT ,0O0.

FISCAL RELATIONS
AIRED AT SESSIONS
Lord Presents Data on Cities
of U. S.-Hearings Slated
Late This Week.

The special House Committee which
is studying the fiscal relations between
the Federal Government and the
District taxpayers was in executive
session for two and one half hours this
morning and is hiding another Ses-
sion this afternoon.
Several new tax features are under
consideration, and If the committee
decides to try any Of these, the per-
sons or interests or agencies affected
will have an opportunity to register
their objections. This was disclosed by
Chairman Mapes who, by vote OF the
committee on a motion by Representa-
tive Collins, Democrat, Of Mississippi,
was instructed to make all announce
ments to the newspapers regarding the
work of the committee.
Lengthy Hearings Over.
II hearings are decided upon they
probably will be opened the latter part
of this week, but the committee has
no intention of holding lengthy hear
ings. Whoever is heard will be picked
individually, by agency or by the COM
mittee. There will be no general near
ings, as the committee intends TO rest
on the hearings already held, CHAIR
man Mapes said today. It Is not likely
that the committee will hear more than
a dozen witnesses, If it hears that many.
Chairman Mapes declined to disclose
what new forms of taxation are being
considered, but said that they are look
ing toward a more equitable and logi-
cal tax system rather than prompted
by a desire to increase revenues.
Lord Presents Data.
George Lord, employed as a tax ex-
pert by the committee, presented mass
of statistical data regarding taxes and
revenues of other large cities through
out the country. His report was not
formal or complete, Mr.. Mapes said, and
Is being considered as Illustrating the
experience of other large cities, some
of whose fiscal affairs at least are COM
parable with those in the National
Capital.
The committee has so much infor-
nation before 1t, the subject Is SO
broad and the various members have
so many divergent views, Mr.. Mapes in
timated, that it was impossible in to-
days session to reach any definite con-
clusions, but was possible only to thrash
over the matter generally. He said
positively that he does not expect that
any conclusions will be reached at the
session this afternoon.

LINDBERGH TO MAKE GROUND
LANDINGS WITH PONTOONS
Aviation Experts Believe He Will Run No
Undue Risk on Soft or Sandy Soil
Without Wheels

BY the Associated P.s8.
NEW YORK, June 9.-Despite the
possibility of forced landings. an ever
present possibility in aviation. Col.
Charles A. Lindbergh will equip the
plane in which he and his wife are
to fly to the Orient solely for alighting
on water.
But this does not mean that he has
overlooked the fact that he may very
well be forced by atmospheric or me-
chanical emergencies to bring the ship
down where no water is available. 1t
was learned today from one of the
aviation companies with which he is
affiliated that Col. Lindbergh has
weighed all possibilities with his usual
care and decided that. If necessary, he
can effect an emergency landing on
earth with pontoons instead of wheels
