he finds.
For the last decade graveyard prose
has been getting down to facts. Gene
terry poetry has disappeared, and the
prose, impersonal and unadorned,
simply gives names and dates. The
saying "as false as an epitaph" has
itself become false.
The change is due in part to new
French cemetery regulations which
forbid ali excessive phraseology"
such as that which figures on the
tomb OF Heloise and Abelard in Pere
Lachaise Cemetery. And then in
these times Of economic stress the

The new style Of things is cordially
welcomed by NJ. de La Fouchardiere.

refrain from a course which has
united these enemies. And as long
as Britain remains a potential foe, so
long his eventual success remains open
to question.
On the other hand, 1t would be a
mistake to assume his present check
to be final. He has recovered the
right to arm without restriction, he
has won Poland away from the
French camp, he is winning Hungary
from the Italian association. He has
consolidated the German minority in
CzechoSlovakia and is making progress
with a Na1 movement in Austria.
Finally powerful political forces alike
in Yugoslavia and Rumania are urging
that their countries discard France

for the Serbs, at least, such a change
might bring great profits, while a war

stopovers at these tourist camps
and they will continue to patronize

That's why some observers venture
to state that the real boom in the
tourist camp industry has not even
started yet. For evidence. they point
to the industry's amazing TopSy-like
growth since 1880.
The first official notice Of the exist
euce of the motor tourist camp was
in 1922, when the Chamber of Com
merce published a bulletin to the
effect that there were 1000 of them.
These pioneer camps were either
owned or supervised by local cham
bers Of commerce or civic organiza-
tions.

mood, you can also remember that
there was a distinct change of senti-
ment in the Summer Of 1880. People
still wanted to travel, but not at the
81 per day schedule. The Smiths, the
Boyles, the Johnsons and the De
Solas quickly discovered that If they
watched their nickels and dimes, they
could travel further. see more and
stay longer. The motor tourist camp
boom was on.
And the boom has continued be-
cause the depression bred millions of
wandering motor tourists-families
whose members were forced to take
long vacations without pay; persons
out of work who found it cheaper to
motor tour than pay rent; the newly
married with little or no money to
spend on a honeymoon.
Thanks to the tourist camps. these
wandering millions have been able to
get q taste of this almost-next-to-
nature life at the cost of dollar or
two a night. They like it. Conse-

THERE is comforting news for
advocates Of inter-American
trade in the reports which
L come from the other side Of
the Rio Grande announcing
that the United States has recaptured
its lost leadership in the South Amer
lean markets.
For the last six years the United
States not only had lost the leader
ship, but, comparatively speaking, had
suffered more than any other large
supplier Of the South Americans.
While the decrease in South Amer
ica's total import trade during the
depression was IS per cent, the i'm
ports from the United States de-
creased by 81 per cent. And even
after the worst of the depression
was over and business began to i'm
prove the total import trade Of South
America increased by ~ per cent In
1888, but the imports from the United
States increased only by Is per cent.
In that same period imports from
Great Britain increased by 80 per
cent and large gains by German and
Japanese exporters were also an
nounced.
Clearly, there was something else
than the general business decline,
brought about by the depression, to
account for this unprecedented fall of
inter American trade to a level in
ferior even to that Of pre-war days.
The slogan made popular by the
Argentine minister Of finances, BUY
from those who buy from U.S." gives
the best clue to the situation.
U. s. Tariffs Criticized.
The South Americans had COM
planned for years against the highly
protective, almost prohibitory tariff
walls which were in favor, until not
long ago. in the United States. They
had criticized the lack of interest OF
their northern neighbors In removing
artificial barriers to trade. They had,
moreover, resented the high-handed-
ness and the paternalistic tone in
which they were usually addressed by
the representatives of United States
interests, sometimes with the back
ing Of the State Department. When
the Hawley-Smoot tariff act went into
effect few years ago, formal written
representations reached Washington
from more than one Southern capital
And In the months which followed,
the South Americans lost no oppor-
tunity to denounce the unilateral
trade tactics of the United States, in
the press, In diplomatic speeches and
in international conferences. Two of
these which were held in this city,
the Convention Of the International
Chamber of Commerce and the Fourth
Commercial Pan-American Confer
ence, gave Washington officials q
taste of the reaction which their COM
mercial policies were precipitating.
It was not at all surprising, there
fore, that when the emergencies OF
the depression gave them q chance tc
readjust their commercial trends, the
South Americans should have turned

You'll never know how quickly Q
bad winter cough can be relieved, un-

Into a pint bottle, pour 213 ounces
of Pinex; then add granulated sugar
syrup to make a full pint. Syrup is
easily made with 2 cups of sugar and
one cup of water, stirred a few mo-
ments until dissolved. No cooking
needed. This gives you four times as
much cough medicine for your money,
and it's a much better remedy. II
never spoils and tastes fine.
Instantly you feel its penetrating
effect. It loosenS the phlegm, helps

action explains why it brings such
quick relief in distressing coughs.
