ITALY TO ABL1SH
TRADE REATIONS WITH
BELLIGERENT NATIONS
ROME, July 14 (by Associated
Press).—A system of barter akin to
that of pioneer frontier days in Amer
ica, but on a more stupendous scale,
presents itself as the modus operandi
of the foreign trade of the United
States in Europe, according to foreign
trade experts of the United States gov
ernment investigating the trade possi
bilities in Italy.
“Our ability to establish permanent
trade relations with the belligerent
European nations which have been
drained of their resources by war de
pends upon our willingness to accept
a program of barter in the exchange
of commodities,” is the opinion given
to the Associated Press correspondent
by Dr. Alfred P. Dennis, United States
commercial attache here.
“Italy,” he added, “needs such of
our raw materials as coal, iron ore,
lumber and petroleum products, to en
able her to start up her industrial
processes and begin anew her eno
nomic convalescence. She can not
go on borrowing the money to pay for
our goods. If she is to have them it
must be through swapping her com
modities for ours.”
GERMAN-MADE GOODS
DEMANDED BY AMERICA
TREVES, July 19 (by Associated
Press).—American firms appear eager
to buy German-made goods as quickly
as possible, according to letters pass
ing recently through the United States
army ''censorship. Cameos, agates
and amethysts appear to be particu
larly in demand in America. As an
indication of how German industries
are being stimulated by orders from
foreign countries, a business letter re
cently said that the crockery factories
in Tliuringen had enough orders on
file to keep them engaged for four
years.
On the other hand, Germany is buy
ing from outside countries goods of va
rious kinds. Purchases just at this
time, however, are confined chiefly to
food, cloth and other articles of ne
cessity. Letters to American manu
facturing firms continue to pass
through the censorship in which Ger
man firms or individuals make inquir
ies regarding agencies in Germanay for
automobiles, rubber goods and other
articles of which the country has been
deprived because of the war.

Adoption of a National Highways Policy Likely
«rJ,HE adoption of a national highways policy by the United States Chamber
1 of Commerce at its annual convention, coupled with recent announce
ments by Senator Penrose, the next chairman of the senate finance committee,
and^Senator Bankhead, retiring chair
man of the senate committee on post
offices and post roads, that they stand
for national highways tremendously
strengthened and probability of pass
age of the Townsend bill at the extra
session of congress,” says David Jame
son, president of the American Auto
mobile association.
“A national highway system can
be kept within 3 per cent of the total
mileage of highways In the United
States and still serve our fundamental
neeas. to make tms point clear it may safely be stated that a zone, ten l
miles In width and 75,000 miles in length, will reach more than 85 per cent
of the population of the United States, more than 85 per cent of the taxable
real estate and more than 55 per cent of the tonnage of farm products.
“Such a system would protect with a military highway having an aggre
gate length of about 10,800 miles our Atlantic, Gulf, Mexican, Pacific and
Canadian borders; would give access to our national forests, our national
parks and open up much of the public domain not now easily accessible, and
would afford trunk-line routes for parcel post in the territories where this
form of transportation is most intensive in character.”
He also says that if as a condition to the building of the national high
ways in each state a construction of an equivalent mileage of state highways
should be required, this would add 75,000 miles of state highways.
This, with the national system, would aggregate 150,000 miles
