too great optimism was not war

the smallest ports, in which it is
most difficult to land troops.
Foreign military observers SINH

point Of view by Lawrence e. Will

president of the Washington Board

Mr.. Williams cited the savings to
the community through the society's
care of INDECENT patients in the
patients homes, thus in many in
stances saving the cost of hospital
care. He expressed the hope that
business men will support the testi-
monlel dinner in view of the services
the nurses render.
OF all the social agencies we

that the business people might

Hams, adding:
Obviously the cost to the COM
munity is much less when the indi-
gent sick are cared for in their own
homes than 1t would be If they
were charity patients in one of our
hospitals. In other words, this
agency is one which can be used to
cut down the rising cost of relief.

Is deserving of recognition, and for

British Trade Adviser Sees
Increased Buying in U. 5.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
F. Ashton Gwatkin, adviser to the
British Ministry of Economic War
fare, said yesterday that his country
could be expected to increase enor-
mously its purchase of manufactured
goods from the United States.
Discussing with reporters the
Franco-British trade conferences
here, Mr.. Ashton -Gwatkin said there
would be a tendency to decrease
agricultural purchases, but that
there was mo need to paint the
picture in too dark colors."
He said that Great Britain aetu-
ally had increased imports of some
agricultural products during the six
months ending with February, par
ticularly cotton and some canned
fruit.
The British representative said
that while he did not believe the
conferences with the State Depart
ment had settled all problems for all
time in connection with Great
Britain's economic blockade of Ger
many, he did believe that it would
make easier negotiation of future
questions.
