WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.—Expansion of the Bureau -of Foreign and Domestic Commerce to enable it to give effective aid to American manufacturers’ and merchants in taking full advantage of after-the-war trade opportunities is the chief rec- ommendation of Secretary Redfield in his annual report made public today..

We should also establish at the earliest possible moment resident trade commissioners in Sweden, Nor- , Great Britain, France, Greece, Switzerland, Russia, Mexico, Bolivia, Uruguay, Brazil, Colotkbia, and Ven- ezuela, Dutch East Indies, China, Philippine Islands, British India, Ja- pan, Malay Peninsula, Egypt, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand. The value of resident representatives is too obvious to require any argu- ment for the extension of, this fea- ture of service. “The field for European investiga- tions by special agents immediately upon the conclusion of the war will be so extensive tifat the bureau will require greatly increased funds. Americaty foncerns have a tremend- ous fiel@/for service to our Allies in helping them rebuild and for future) 2 rth business) “Too much emphasis can not be placed on the desirability of employ-! ing trained economists, statisticians, and experts on ete., in éxeess of the bureau’s present force, These types authority are constantly needed to conduét work equal in importance to that performed by the great federal commissions in Washington. “Our country is looking to the Bu- reau of Foreign and Domestie Com- merce to do its share in preparing the country for economic security and prosperity after the- war, when the chief industrial and commegcial forces in both hemispheres will be ready to launch great organizations on the commercial seas in quest of trade. The instinct of commercial self-preservation demands organized action. This is not the time for short-sighted thrift. Other countries are looking ahead and spending money to organize for their commer- | cial security. - “A wisely libera] preparation now will mean millions of income some day to this country, will mean in- dustrial prosperity for our labor, and will mean strength for our economic structure against adverse conditions or sharper competition from any quarter. No country has excelled us in the type of commercial service which we have for six years past ren- dered to the business community, and this position should ,be maintain- ed by us regardless of our temporary absorption in military defense.” , Of inland waterways Secretary Redfield says: “An important step forward, which will be of great advantage commerce, was taken when the director general of railroads assum- ed, on behalf of the government for the period of the war, the operation of the Cape Cod and the Delaware and Britan canals, the latter being operated in connection with the New York state barge canals. Every economic, military, and naval argu- ment points to the importance of the, earliest possible development of a government-owned waterway cor- responding with what is commonly known as the Atlantic intra-coastal waterway, connecting all the great cities of our Atlantic seaboard with one another, with the New York state waterways, reaching to the Great Lakes and Lake Champlain, and with all the railroad terminals along our eastern coast. ~ 3 “Such a waterwiy, safe alike from the effects of storms und from the acts of @énemies, would be a great asset to the nation if it were avail- able today. The development of the use of our internal waterways having beeh taken’ over by the railroad ad- ministration, this department retains an interest in them only because of their ‘effect in promoting our com- merce,” Legislation to provide for the es- tablishment of standards for all lines of industry with the bureau as the, determining and classifying agent is Madrid, | banking, shipping, | ef economic; to our} facts that a buyer, domestic or for- yeign, ought to know respecting the | nature of the article.

Scientific problems in nearly ali branches of aeronautics have been investigated by the bureau during the year and much assistance given on airplane- motor problems. Munition gauges were standardiz@? and methods of producing optical glass developed. “The application of science to mili- tary uses,” the report says, “are illus- trated by several examples of the bureau’s work directly affecting the comfort and efficiency of the soldier, The soldier’s shoes are investigated jin the laboratory and in the field to | determine the most suitable leather. A sole-leather-testing machine is ‘used, and the leather is chemically in- vestigated while controlled service tests are in progress by soldiers in camp. The serviceability of shoe- strings has also been under test. Uni- form cloth has been under careful | investigation for some time in the textile laboratories of the bureau. “The heat conductivity of the sol- dier’s blanket has been’ studied. Cot- tort blankets may equal wool blan- | kets in this respect. The bureat has investigated shelter tents, the sol- dier’s canteen, and other Rit equip- ment, washing and saving soaps, combs, inks, afid other supplies for the soldier’s use. “The bureau also determined by careful tests the most suitable trench oil stove, taking account not only of its heating efficiency, but the dan- ger of observation from the light radiated on the ground. It has standardized the gauges for making the service rifle, has studied the prob- lem of. gun erosion, and the failure of gun parts and material in service. In short, there is scarcely a phase of the soldier’s needs and activities in which the bureau has not co-operated with the military departments to secure the most effective provision for his,| comfort, convenience, and fighting power, In addition to aiding the nayy in coast patrol work, working with the food administration to bring about a greater consumption of fish in the United Statés, and developing aqua- tic sources of leather, the Bureau of Fisheries established a new high rec- ord in a phase of its own work—res- cuing stranded food fish left in shal- low pools by high waters along the Mississippi and Ohio rivers. During the year 46,618,810 of various spe- cies were restored to the rivers or used to stock suitable ponds. The Bureau of Lighthouses and the Coast and Geodetic Survey also are mentioned as having rendered valu. able aid to other branches of the go’ ernment in work necessary to the prosecution of the war. Urgent needs of the department for the future enumerated by Secre- tary Redfield are: Two sea-going vessels and wire drag launches fog the Coast and Geo- detic survey, and officers and crews for them. - Larger clerical force in the field service of the Steamboat Inspection Service and in the office of the Coast _and Geodetic Survey, together with | more draughtsnien and computers at |more adequate salaries in the latter | service. ; Provision fo housing the army | of clerks needed during ‘the three j year period of handling the census \ of 1920, which will be in fall swing | by next July. | A laboratory aquarium for tke Bureau of Fisheries. | A government owned commerce | building to house all services except the Bureau of Standards and the Inboratory aquarium.

W. Montgom- ery, residing at 2701 Bristol street, Omaha, Neb., recently. “Mable is now thirteen years of | age.” continued Mrs. Montgomery, “and had suffered terribly for fiv: vears. One of her troubles was in-| flamatory rheumatism. Her feet and hands would swell very badly and av} times she couldn’t walk. She had no appetite. suffered with frightful head- | aches and in place of growing she seemed to be losing ground, She was often in bed for several weeks at a time, and we had to keep her out of school all the past year. She was a very sick child, and although we spent | lots of money for medicines, nothing seemed to reach her trouble and wa had begun to think that she would never get well. “One a our relatives urged us +o ative her Tanlac, and now you would not take her for the same child. She has actually gained thirty-four pounds and looks like the’ picture of health, and to all appearances is perfectly tvell. She never complains of an ache ora pain or a disagreemable symptom of any kind. She is brimful of lite, and'ambition now, and enjoys life and play like other children. Soon after she began on Tanlac came back, and sheincreased ix weight so fast that we were astonish ed, and the swelling, pain and head- aches gradually disappeared. She is now able to enter s¢hool again, anc ‘we ere more than grateful for what Tanlac has done for her. I have also taken Tanlac for loss of appetite, voor digestion and nervousness, anu it has done me a world of good. I feel fine all the time, and am glad to say all I can for Tanlac.” Tanlac is sold in Casper by the Cas- per Pharmacy: and in Alcova by the Alcova Mercantile Co.—Adv.
