"Hullo," he said.
"Hullo. Why marriage? And

negotiated, showed the largest increase
Of imports from this country, the total
jumping from $45 900 900 during 1884
to $50, ,000. 900 last year. On the other
hand, two countries, Haiti and The
Netherlands, showed decreases. Bel
gium and Sweden showed fair in
creases.
The "A per cent increase In goods
received fron the treaty countries was
made up largely Of farm products.
On the side Of the favorable work
ing OF the agreements was the fact
that there was q decided jump in ex-
ports during the last four months of
the year. In other words. exports for
this period jumped up 1914 per cent
over the corresponding period of 1894.
This was true also of imports, the last
four months showing an increase Of
80 per cent over the corresponding
four months the year before.
Considerable interest attended pub
lication Of the figures because Of the
contention Of George N. Peek. until
recently head Of the Export and I'm
port Bank. that the multilateral treaty
method is not the correct approach to
the revival Of foreign trade. He and
Hull have been constantly at odds. a
situation which led to the retirement
Of Peek. He has now taken up the
fight against the New Deal.
The most discouraging feature Of
the Commerce Departments figures
was that our exports declined more
than the usual seasonal decline during
December, while, contrary to the usual
seasonal movement, imports were up.

Hull Worried at : Drift Of

BY CARLISLE BARGERoN.

Secretary OF State Hull II having
enough trouble with his reciprocal
tariff treaties to try the patience Of .
Job. Last week he proudly announced
negotiation Of another treaty-this
one with Switzerland-but figures just
made public by the Commerce Depart
ment show that last year our exports
increased by. only per cent, while
imports increased "a per cent.
Those multilateral pacts which have
been negotiated were. Of course, not
all in effect over the whole year and
for that reason 1t does not give q fair
test Of how they are working. The
results, nevertheless, are disappoint-
ing and the State Departments trade
experts are inclined to blame 1t on
the Ethiopian war. Europe Is giving
more attention to increased arma-
ments than to revival Of international
trade, 1t is said.
Bearing on the discouraging work
ing of the multilateral pacts Is the
fact that, although the recently nego-
tiated treaty with Canada did not 60
into effect unil January, our exports
to that country increased by 0.000,-

Then followed a series OF dramatic
events during which McLaglen marked

age Of 40.

DRAMA GUILD PRESENTS
COMEDY BY L0NSDALE
British Authors "The High Road"
Played Last Night at
: Pierce Hall.

. 4S4 W S4@SSS
MAYBE the players Of the Drama
A'A Guild couldn't get used to the
Pierce Hall stage after having per-
formed on another platform for 50
long, or maybe something else was
behind 1t all, but whatever the cause,
last nights performance Of Frederic
Lonsdale's "The High Road" was not
up to Guild standards.
1t was amusing, yes, but there is
much more humor in Mr.. Lonsdale's
play about an actress who disrupts q
stodgy British family than these
people allowed to come out last
night. They just couldn't seem to
get going-played stiffly and slowly
and not at all easily-which Is not as
1t should be, for the Drama Guild has
something of q reputation for pro-
ducing plays with a professional, or
at least near-professional, finish. II
the group did not have this reputa-
ton the playing Of '"The High Road"
could be passed over lightly as an ade-
quate amateur performance. But,
somehow, followers Of the local
theater have come to expect some
thing more than just passable per-
formances from the Drama Guild.
Jane Duenner, Dick Stringfellow
and Toni Sorel were, by far, the best
of the cast. Miss Duenner especially
was absolutely right as cool and
smooth Englishwoman; Mr.. String
fellow was completely at ease, which
made him stand out by contrast, and
Miss Sorel is an attractive and able
young lady who would have been the
knockout Of the evening had her voice
had more volume. Jane Plummer
Rice had a minor role but did it
naturally. Sylvia Lane directed and
the set was designed by C. David
Persina. "The High Road" will be
repeated tonight and tomorrow night
at $40 o'clock at Pierce Hall. H. NJ.
