BIG JUNPIN TRADE ' OF LATINAMERICA Business With U. S. 44 Per Cent Higher Than in 1914. | i $200,000,000 in Loans. Undercurrents of optimism pervad- ing all recent economic reports from Lat'n America are well borne out by the remarkable recovery shown in | the statistics of trade between the United States and her southern neighbors during the fiscal year end- ing June 30, 1922, according to a sur- vey of the situation today by Jullus Klein, director of the bureau of for- elgn and domestic commerce of the Commerce Department. Previous to his appointment by Secretary Hoover as head of the trade promotion bureaa of the Com- merce Department, Mr. Klein was a commercial attache at Buenos Aires. 44 Per Cent Over 1914. “Notwithstanding the fact.” he said, “that this fiscal year embraced six months of lowest depression since the beginning of the European .war, the | total trade of the United States with | Latin America during the period was nearly 44 per cent greater than for | the twelve months of the fiscal year | No better ex- ending June 30, 1914 e ample of the splendid recuperative powers of the countries of both North { and South America can be given than | a study of such statistics. il “We must bear in mind also, that in addition to this increase of trade be- tween the countries of these con-| tinents, Europe has again become a large factor both as a buyer and a seller in Latin America; hence we may rightly assume that the statistics of | infer-American commerce cited above | are an indication of the general trade improvement of the commercial re-| Jations of the southern republics with the world at large.” American capital, Mr. Klein con- tinued, has turned in a strong tide toward Latin America where, prior to 1914 with the exception of those in| Mexico and Cuba, American invest- ments were negligible $200,000,000 in Loans. i During the fiscal vear just ended. he reported, more than $200.000,000 of | American capital was ested in Latin American loans.

The boy | was riding a bicycle April 15 last along Sherman avenue when an auto truck of the defendant is alleged to have collided with him, inflicting serious injury. Attorneys W. F. Leahy and L. H.

Steamship men, however, are not excited over the large imports, as most of the articles are on the “free list” which gives rise to the belief that importers are rushing goods in to take advantage of the present tariff. o SPECIAL NOTICES. n of mine New River bituminous coal sid 1k de iveries.

Given Ninety Students in Two-Week Training. Recelving perfect physical ratings. ninety non-comniissioned officers: of the Washington High School Cadets broke camp today, following nearly two weeks of vigorous outdoor train- ing at Camp'Simms, near Congress Heights, D. C. The men, browned by exposure to the sun and hardened by muscular activity, which was an important part of the camp work, came back to the city with reluctance. The five white high schools and the Columbia Junior High School were represented In the personnel of the camp, which was un- der the supervision of Lieut.”Col. Wallace M. Craigle, U. S. A., military instructor for the public schools. A wide training in military mdneu- jvers and discipline was afforded the boys during the twelve days of their encampment across the river. = The rifle range, in charge of Sergt. Walter Stokes, amateur rifile champion of the world, was a popular place, and cred- itable’ sharp-shooting records were made by the men. The novices at this art were taught the rudiments of handling a gun and the experienced ones were given valuable practice in target work. Two Companies Formed. Two companies of the non-coms were formed and labeled companies A and B. The units hiternated each day at rifle practice and on other phases of the program wheye facil- itles were limited. Both companies hopped out of bed every morning at 6 o'clock, on the sounding of reveille, and participated in setting-up ex- ercises. Breakfast was then devoured, literally, and following this the work of the cay was carried out. The daily schedule included police and sentry duty. instruction in mili- tary tactics, rifle practice, drill and such diversions as base ball, swim- ming, etc. A fine pool, of which the camp boasted, was not overlooked whenever the opportunity to use it as afforded. The day closed with “U1ips” each night at 9:30 o'clock. The kitchen was in charge of J. R. Gibson, who appears to have been one of the most popular personages about the camp. The boys always responded to mess call without urg- ing and they lingered over their dishes. Celebration of Fourth. Among entertainment features were a Fourth of July celebration and a vaudeyille performance by home tal- ent. The show was staged Thursday evening in an impromptu way, with (@ large number of visiting parents and friends forming the audience. The program included a drill by the awkward squad, commanded by Capt. Hunter; a boxing bout, Dunigap vs. Jordan; a wrestling match between Lewis and Poole, a comedy boxing jmatch by Burnside and Plerce, story telling by Col. Craigie, contest, a violin solo by Mr. Stokes, etc. One of the featwred musical acts who received prolonged applause. The camp orchestra furnished music. The performance was in the mess hall, which was cleared out for the occasion. Dr. Yater, camp physician, was called on but little to render medical assistance to the boys, and he dis- jcharged the cadets with high health scores. Col Craigie declared that the camp ijust ended was remarkably success- ful, constituting a vast improvement lover that of last year.

Austin Baughman, commissioner of motor ve- hicles, says the number of automobiles owned in Maryland has increased about 30 per cent over last year. His state- ment was made at the end of a big rush for licenses for the six-month pe- riod, beginning July 1. There was a large demand for motor cycle licenses, as well as those for cars: Mr. Baughman said a surprising num- ber of applicants for motor cycle licenses were under the -impression that the Joseph bill, which provided for only one license for a cycle with side car, had been enacted by the legislature last winter. An additional license for the side car still is required. Licenses will cost the same until Oc- tober 1, when they will be Issued for the three-month period ending Decem- er 31. —_— EXPECT GASOLINE CUT. Midwestern States Affected by Standard Oil Program.

KINGSVILLE, Opt, ' July ‘8.— Eddie' Sanderson of: Bellingham, Wash, ' came here visiting 7. and promptly became popular with - a little Kingsville girl. - They went walking together, they bought ice -cream together—and the girl pretty generally showed - the home town boys that the visitor: from America was her ideal. But-three boys--all between ten and twelve—liked the little girl, and they didn’t like Eddie’s popu- larity. They became frankly jeal- ous.. So. they got together and planned to end Eddie’s visit and" his popularity at one stroke. Men passing a small woods near the town yesterday heard a boy's ¢ries. They smelled smoke and rushed into the woods. Tied to & stake, with a fire eating its way up his legs, was Eddie Sanderson. They cut the rope and freed him, They threw water on his feet and rushed him into the town. There Eddie at first refused to tell what haq happened. Finally he told the story of his popularity and said the three boys had chased him, caught him, carried him into the woods, and there kindled a fire of paper and sticks, tied him to a. stake as the flames started up, and left him. He was not burned se- riously. TAKES UP QUESTION OF BRIDGE RAILWAY Secretary Weeks Asks Ad- vice on Laying Tracks Over Georgetown Structure. Secretary Weeks has acked the judge advocate general of the Army for an opinion as to whether he may legally |authorize tne Capital Traction Company to install “a standard system of electric propulsion” across the new Georgetown bridge and If not, whether there is any other method under existing law by which tracks may be laid across. the {bridge under the law. An opinion also is asked as to whether the Secretary of War has authority to grant.the Wash- ington and Old Dominion Company per- mission to build its proposed new termi- nal on the United States reservation at the southern approach to the bridge, at Rosslyn. Questions Based on Act. These questions are based on the i provisions of the act of May 18, 1916, authorizing the construction of the bridge and the changes in the rail- road eituation that have ocoured {since the enactment of that legisla- tion. The aot of 1916 provided thal the bridge should “be used as a | nighway for traffic, and for gas and water mains, power, telegraph and telephone wires or cables, and inter- ,urba.n railroads, upon such conditions land for such compensation, as may from_time to time be prescribed by llhe Secretary of War.” I twas pro- vided that the Washington and Old Dominion railway, now using the Augeduct bridge. “be permitted to change its location so as to cross the new bridge with a double track, sub- ject to approval of the Secretary of ‘War.”” Another provision was that a standard system of electric propul- | sion should be installed on the bridge {by the Washington and Old Dominion {and maintained in good condition. It was also specifically provided that “any electrio rallway shall have the right to use said new bridge and the double tracks above described upon terms determined by the Secretary of War, who is authorised and directed to fix the terms of joint trackage.” All {rallways using the bridge were to be required to pay one-half cent for each transported over the “just and reasonable ’rales" for freight. These payments were to be made monthly and one- | half of the amount was to be credited | to the District of Columbia, which, un- jder the act, is required to pay one- half of the cost of the bridge. Company Relinquishes Claim. The Washington and Old Dominion Company recently notified the War Department that.it had decided to labandon its present terminus - at Georgetown and build a mew. one at the Virginia end of .the new bridge, jand consequently relinquished its privilege to lay tracks across the bridge.” About the same time, the Capital Traction Company, in a letter to the Secrotary of War, indicated its willingness to lay tracks across the bridge as provided by law, and extend its'line from M street to a loop on the Virginia ‘approach, pro- vided it was permitted to coliect a fare of half a cent from bridge pas- sengers to meet the tax of that amount imposed by the law. War Department officials hold that the Secretary of War is legally vested with complete jurisdiction -over -the bridge and the uses to which it is put, but admit that he will be guided in 'the specific matter of the col- lection of a separate fare for bridge passengers by the report of the Public Utilities. Commission of the Distriot, which has had that ques- tion under consideration. Question May Not Arise. That perticular question will not arise, however, unless the law offi- cers of the War Department hold that them&greuxy of War has full egal authority to permit the Cap- ital Traction Company to lay tracks across the bridge and he grants the permit. In case it is held that such trackage permission is restricted to the Washington and Old Dominion Company and no other method of track construction is authorized under the law, it will be necessary ;:tPo‘x:’ebEgnm” pass rl:medlll legis- 4 ore any ' tracks be laid on the bridge.

In connmection with the article in The Star of tomorrow in regard to the petition of the mothers' congress to the Commissioners, Mrs Brennan “Our committee called upon Sena- tor Capper and Justice Stafford for advice in the matter of appointments on the school board.
