AMERICA
IN TRADE WAR
WITH JAPAN
By KINGSBURY SMITH
Copyright, 1895, by International
News Service)

South America is moving to re-
pei Japan's economic invasion Of
the Latin American homeland.
Information received in official
quarters here disclosed today that
seven South American nations
have taken measures to stem the
flood Of cheap japanese goods.
Action by these Latin American
republics was prompted by the
growing fear that continued sale
of the japanese articles, produced
by low-paid, over-worked Japanese
laborerS and sold at Is to so per
cent below the domestic product,
would undermine the higher living
standards Of workers Of the West
ern world.
Japan'S failure to live up to its
promises to purchase more South
American goods also has contrib
uted to the reprisal movement.
Undersells Rivals
Enabled by low-cost production,
obtained at the sacrifice of the
living standards of Japanese work
ers, to undersell its competitors as
much as so per cent, Japan has
been capturing markets right and
left in Latin America.
Not satisfied, however, with tax
ing away the markets OF American
and British traders in Latin Amer
lea, Japan made the mistake of
starting to undersell the domestic
products OF the Latin American
nations right in their own back
yards.
In the case of Chile, Japan took
that nations Cuban market Writ
ually away by shipping goods all
the way across the Pacific on
Japanese freighters at cheaper
rates than Chile could ship its
goods to Havana. Japan cut the
freight rates to So per ton be-
tween Yokohama and Havana as
against $11.5O between Valparaiso
and Havana.
Chile retaliated by limiting
Japan'S sales in that country to
the amount Of its purchases Of
Chilean goods.
Peru. Columbia and Cuba have
denounced their commercial trade
agreements with Japan. Ell Saliva
dor, Guatemala and Uruguay
have Joined Chile in adopting
retaliatory or restrictive measures
against the japanese economic
invasion.
Japan's campaign to establish
an economic foothold in South
America started in earnest at the
beginning Of 1882. Within two
years, at the end of 1884, japanese
exports to South America had in
creased by approximately 582 per
cent.
Promise Not Kept
This trade expansion was per-
mitted by the South American
countries principally because
Japan had promised to purchase
more South American goods. It
failed, however, to keep this
promise. In 1884, while Japan
sold $31, 0OO, 900 worth of goods to
Latin America, it took in ex-
change less than $7,500,000 worth
of Latin American goods.
Now thoroughly convinced that
Japan has little intention of liv-
ing up to its promises, the South
American nations have moved to
block further trade expansion ex-
cept on a strictly reciprocal basis.
Colombia's denunciation of its
trade agreement with Japan fol-
lowed the closing Of large
factory in Barranquilla and an 80
per cent decline in the output Of
a Medellin manufacturer, both
attributed to japanese competi-
ton.

HoU About Those Whose
Pay Is Still Cut?

To the Editor of The Times:
In reading the Washington
newspapers, one would think only
Government people lived in Wash,
ington.
Government workers had their
pay cuts restored and now they
are kicking about higher rents
and food prices.
1t is very true that living ex
penSeS have scared. But what
about people who are working in
places that gave salary cuts that
have not been restored. Isn't it
doubly hard on them? VIC.
