LATIN AMERICA OFFERS
GREAT MARKET FOR u. S.
Rich Itself i'm Natural Resources, 1t Can
Consume Tremendous Quantities
of Manufactured Goods.

two elements Of trade appear more or
less balanced and supplement one
another.
Political considerations. too, may at
times influence such grouping, as ex-
emplified by the Ottawa agreements,
but in this case success is much more
problematical than if purely economic
and geographical factors had been con-
suited.
There are, at present. five great
regions in the world with an
abundance of raw materials and a
large population, capable Of absorb
ing the surplus of manufactured goods
which the leading industrial powers
offer for trade. But only one Of the
five is still open to free competition.
With Russia closed from within,
China falling slowly, but certainly, to
Japanese penetration, India monop-
olized by Great Britain, and Africa
long ago divided up and parceled out
to a few European countries, Latin
America is the last of the worlds great
treasure houses.
The United states is the major in
dustrial country which is closest to
that new Eldorado and which is,
geographically and economically, best
fitted to supply it with manufactured
articles in exchange for its natural
products.
Market for Surplus.
The 20 Latin American republics
lying on the other side Of the Rio
Grande and in the Caribbean consti-
tute today-today more than ever
the only open market for the surplus
output of the United States.
They occupy two-thirds of the West
ern Hemisphere. They are already the
home of over hundred million people,
whose numbers are increasing con-
stantly. They are one of the mightiest
reservoirs of wealth in human history.
Stretching from the North Temerate
to the Antarctic regions, they run the
gamut of climates. They possess in
staggering amounts copper and silver,
tin and iron, nitrates and oil. They
produce lumber and fruits, cattle and

RIT1CS Of the new trade poll
cies Of the United States
Y favoring reciprocal CONNER
- cial pacts argue, not entirely
without reason, that the problems and
difficulties to be faced are so vast and
so many, and that the interests in
volved are so conflicting with each
other, that nothing short Of a miracle
could substitute overnight an organ
lied and well-proportioned inter-
national economy for the almost
chaotic conditions Of today.
But, then, nobody should expect
that much Of the new policies. In q
capitalistic society, organized mainly
for private profit, such a Utopia Is not
possible. National interests are too
interviewer with the interests of pri-
vate capital at home. And these are,
for the most part, continuously in
conflict with other private interests in
other countries. Protection Of ma
tional industries In one country be-
comes prohibitory tariffs to another.
Domestic privileges result in foreign
discrimination. Currency deflation to
help local conditions becomes an "un-
fair barrier to trade" viewed from
another country. The problem seems
unsolvable.
Logically. the only way out is to
follow the line of least resistance.
And the line of least resistance, is
simply. to divide up the job, to bring
together, in separate groups, those
interests which are most susceptible Of
harmonization, those interests which.
instead Of competing with, can
complement each other.
Linking Proposed.
Obviously, this can only be done by
regions, by groups. The foundation Of
all international economy Is trade.
In trade there are, generally speaking
two elements: Countries which pro-
duce raw materials and countries
which manufacture goods. The thing
to do, then, Is to group those coun-
tries, bearing geographic and economic
considerations in mind, 50 that re-
gional units may result In which the

Austria. internally, is concerned.
Practically all the conservative politi-
cal leaders are pledged to the mon
archy. Even the Socialists would well
come 1t In place of the present terror.
The Catholic peasants are 100 per cent
for the Hapsburg's return. The Vati-
can and Mussolini likewise are SYM
pathetic, the latter because he hopes
for the marriage Of an Italian princess
with Otto, thereby cementing the dy-
nastic bond between Fascist Italy and
Fascist Austria. England, at this
writing, is indifferent. France, pro-
tector of the Petite Entente, is against
Otto. but if the Italo- Ethiopian con-
troversy goes against Mussolini the
Rumanian -Yugoslav CzechoSlovak bloc
may become less antagonistic.
Berlin Otto's Stumbling Block.
Berlin is Otto's greatest stumbling
block. The Hitlerites do not wish to
revive monachist sentiment in Ger
many, and especially in Bavaria, where
the Wittelsbach family is popular. The
Bavarians would bring back Prince
Rupprecht tomorrow If they could.

tests could readily be applied to admit
to our Nation the restricted number OF
high-grade immigrants whose arrival
would still be to our advantage.
The official proposals today being
urged at Washington are based upon
very different conceptions. The Kerr
bill, sponsored by the Department OF
Labor, seeks to provide that aliens who
have contrived to enter the United
States and to secure positions or to
effect protective marriages may have
their status here permanently regular
lied by an interdepartmental COM
mittee sitting at Washington, with dc
tatorial powers similar to those exer-
cised by so many of our recently-cre-
ated governmental boards.
This committee, working under
highly political conditions and sub
jected to every possible pressure from
interested quarters, would have the
power to grant permanent legal resi-
dence to all those who succeed in
reaching American soil and maintain
ing themselves here for a few months
or years. This would place the highest
possible reward upon fraudulent and
irregular entry. It would actually and
actively discriminate in favor Of one
of the least desirable Of all possible
categorieS of immigrants.
The theory expressed in the oficial
apologize for this surprisingly anti
selective and autocratic scheme is that
the aliens whom it would favor have
been guilty of nothing more than
venial offenses by having fiouted their
oaths and contravened American law.
It is tantamount to saying to all
would-be immigrants, 1--WE will not
admit you unless you can show pecu-
MARY assets, American jobs or Ameri-
can relatives: but If you do once get
in by hook or crook, and create con-
nections for yourselves among US, we
will accept you into our people"
Quota System Dead.
The only consoling element in the
present and the proposed systems for
favoring the sharp and conscienceless
types Is that these viii gradually add
to our population elements whose
acuteness and selfishness will tend to
correct the very naivete and obtuse-
ness Of our idealists upon which our
politicians are now trading.
The quota system is dead. The
property test (known as the public
charge test) which has superseded it is
effective in reducing the number Of
immigrants but is ineffective and un-
Just in the classes which it favors. The
special exceptions now being made in
favor of aliens who enter the United
States dishonesty are favoring pre-
cisely the races we wished to exclude.
The oficial plans Of the moment call
for the confirmation and extension Of
these inequitable and harmful excep-
tions. experimentation with simple
system of proper selective tests, for
which circumstances are now propi.
tious, should be urged by every citizen
who is interested in the future Of the
American people.

Veterans who had served under him
carried JeIlicoe's coffin up the steps to
the principal entrance Of the cathe-
dral. After them came three officers
with the admirals decorations on black
velvet cushions. Atop the bier were
his cooked hat and beautiful cross
of Flanders poppies. the common field
flower which symboliZes the struggle
of 1914-1918.
EuIogy by Archbishop.
The emotional apex of the service
came with the eulogy pronounced by
the Archbishop of Canterbury. This
was the man." he said, ION whom was
laid a yaster responsibility than had
ever been laid on any commander IN
chief at any time in the long history
of this nation"
A relative, the Bishop Of Sheffield,
read the committal ritual. and a
massed chorus sang the favorite hymn
of the navy, "Ten Thousand Times
Ten Thousand" as the caSket was
lowered into the crypt. Buglers Of the
Royal Marines sounded the last post.
But the solemn drama had not
closed. The crowd Of mourners was
to carry away a final memory-the
picture of the Prince of Wales standing
at salute before the open vault, paying
the respects of his royal father, King
George v, and his own grateful tribute
of affection. With him at the moment
were Earl Jellicoe's widow, pale from
sorrow. and his successor In the peer
age, weeping schoolboy.
The famous sailors tomb Is only a
few feet from that of his celebrated
forerunner, Lord Nelson, hero Of Ira
falgar. Nearby rest many other we'll
remembered naval leaders, including
Baron Rodney, Earl Howe, Earl st.

Collingwood and Lord Northesk. Also

Napoleon; Sir John Moore of Coruna,
Sir Ralph Abercromby, Sir Thomas

riage to a woman vested with Ameri-
can citizenship. While accurate and
complete data regarding these mar
riage cases are conspicuously absent, 1t
Is understood that in something like
one-third of them the so-called Ameri-
can (often naturahzed) wives are older
than the aliens who have married
them.
In numerous other cases there are
indications that the citizen women
whom the foreign visa a-seekers marry
are possessed of substantial sums, or
hold gainful employment, upon which
the assetless males can build cases for
stances, furthermore, the marriages
are contracted after our immigration
authorities have begun deportation
proceedings or have warned the aliens
to depart-a further evidence that
these unions are based upon self
interest rather than sentiment.
Privilege Being Abused.
While the privilege of admission
should unquestionably be granted to
foreign wives and possibly foreign
husbands, whenever the natural at
traction between the sexes has been in
operation, this privilege has been left
quite unregulated. It is now being
coolly and continually abused.
of oIx
Gates of family reunion and monde
portation are, as rule, based upon a
naive lack of information. The hearts
of our lady welfare workers are touch
ed by those rare cases in which aliens
who have beaten our laws are of fairly
good superficial type or possess de-
pendents in the United States who
would require assistance for time if
permanent admission were not ar
ranged.
The truth is that good numbers Of
highly desirable and honorable aliens
are being rejected by our officials in
foreign countries at the same time
that the undesirable aliens who have
come in fraudulently or illegally are
wrangling permanent status through
the persistent interference of mis-
guided uplifters and ward heelers. The
United States is still lodestone which
attracts ambitious and capable young
men and women, few of whom at
least might still be admitted to the
benefit of the Nation. Our current
jerry-built devices exclude these ap-
plicants and admit their astute and
unethical fellow applicants who secure
footholds here by perjury or boundary
jumping. The system is inherently and
Undeniably anti-selective, and our
present stream Of immigration, re-
duced as It is in volume, Is composed
to no small extent Of unethical and in
3erior types.
It would be simple and easy to enact
legislation based upon real selective
tests-intelligence or education, DEM
onstrated skill. youth. health and ra-
tional thrift. Now that the quota sys-
tenn has fallen into desuetude, such

England has a new shrine. II is
the tomb of Jellicoe of Jutland in St.
Paurs Cathedral. Following the fu-
neral last week the proper authorities
Immediately began to consider plans
for a monument to immortalize the
great commander of Britain's feet in
the one first-class naval battle of the
World War. The actual form, the
materials and the design will be de-
cided in consonance with other
memorials already to be seen in the
aisles of the church which has been
called "the heart of the empire"
Meanwhile, all England is talking
of the magnificent spectacle afforded
by the last rites for the late admiral
of the feet. 1t was, every one agreed,
the most impressive occasion Of its
kind in many years. No man or
woman who was present ever will
forget the solemn pageantry of it. 1t
reflected the passion of mourning and
the patriotic pride which the British
people manifest only for eminent SOL
diers and sailors--a special kind OF
grief which they do not accord to mere
statesmen or even to celebrated artists
or scientists.
Thousands Line Curbs.
The ceremonies began with a slow
procession through hushed streets and
under crepe-hung colors. Hundreds
of thousands of citizens lined the curbs
to see it pass. And the throngs be-
held a miracle. Incredible as it may
seem, less than 20 years after Arma-
geddon, there marched beside Jellicoe's
casket as paubearers two naval ENJOYS
designated by the German govern
ment to do him that honorl
One Of the pair was Vice Admiral
Richard Forester, who commanded the
German fiotilla at Scapa Flow. Also
present at the cathedral was Capt
Won Rintelen, German master spy, and
Prince Friedrich of Prussia, grand
son of the former Emperor Wilhelm.

last second before the whistle blew.
Clarence Goswellin, Snow Hills CEN
ter forward, kicked the goal.
Some difference of opinion seems to
have arisen concerning the length of
the second half. Some of the specta-
tors claiming the play was extended
beyond the legal limit But inasmuch-
as the official time keeper is arbiter
of that function of the game, there
is no appeal. 1t is quite possible for
spectators to fail to follow the ''time-
outs" and thus very naturally conclude
the game is longer than required. 1t
was a hard game to lose, but victory
is not the only end and aim of sport,
SO losses should be sustained bravely
and with a determination to do bet
ter next time.
The Pocomoke Field Ball girls
seemed to strike an off day, Tuesday.
Though they had the right spirit and
fought hard, they just couldn't seem
to get their old system which had so
far kept them undefeated. 1t was
of course hard for them to lose, but
with their splendid previous record
and the old team spirit this should
make very little difference in their
progress in gaining the top. The score
was, Pocomoke eight; Snow Hill six
teen. Louise Duncan, Pocomoke's
right inside, played marvellous bame
and scored four out of the eight points
Two of these was in the first quar-
ter and two in the fourth quarter.
Francis Small scored two points in
the first quarter and Helen Sturgis
scored the remaining two in the fourth
quarter of the game.
Elizabeth Exley, playing left wing,
was the outstanding player for Snow
Hill. She scored twelve out Of the
sixteen points made by her team. Two
of these points she scored in the first
quarter, two in the second, four in the
third and four in the fourth quarter.
Two points were scored by Mildred
Truitt in the second quarter and two
by Marie Taylor in the third quarter.
Though Snow Hill got many points,
they had to fight hard for each one.
The lineup for Pocomoke was as
follows: Laura Wilkens, Center;
Louise Duncan, Right Inside; Frances
Small, Right Wing; Helen Sturgis,
Left Inside; Dorothy Mason, Left
Wing; Mary Coulbourne, Center Half
Back; Margaret Miller, RICH Half
Back; Beulah Mcdaniel, Left Half
