C. ROYLE. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, November 22.—Farmers of the Northwest, textile interests of the South and New England, manufac- turers of the Central West and East, fruit growers and canners of the West Coast and lumbermen of the South and Pacific States are hoping for de- | velopment of something more tangible | than political good will from Herbert Hoover’s trip to Central and South America. They hope the President-elect may turn out to be somewhat the same kind of salesman as young Mr. highness the Prince of Wales. for a great part of the development anywhere . . . plugin On this Victor Electrola Radiola, an antenna-plate brings in nearby broadcasts New !lile foreign trade of the British em- pire. All the business men listed above and many others see opportunities for a huge and profitable trade with the southern republics. The farmers fore- see in it a benefit for agriculture and a measure of farm relief such as is beyond the poyer of any Congress to provide by legislative enactment. The Latin American consumers are the most important foreign buyers of American flour and the most consistent, accore ing to milling authorities. Officials of the United States Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce de- clare that in the last year for which | Federal statistics are available Cuba | took 62.3 per cent of its imports from | the United States; Mexico, 70.5 per cent, the highest percentage of any country in the world; Argentina, 25.5 per cent; Brazil, 29.3; Chile, 32.7, and Peru, 46.2. ‘The chance for this business is bet- ter now than ever before, since the cop- per producers of Mexico and South America are profiting tremendousiy from 16-cent copper and the oil pro- ducers are getting into full swing. This has meant increased purchasing power and the problem now is to get tha Latin countries to exercise this puw:hasing power with American produters. The use of white flour and othor American food stuffs is expected to increase in Edward ‘Windsor, otherwise known as his roy};\l The latter probably has been responsible Central and parts of South America, despite the huge grain crops of Chile and Argentina. In 1926 the dollar value of American exported to Latin America of | goods Place instrument amounted to $438,000,000. So far as food stuffs are concerned, only Argen- tina, Chile and Uruguay grow enough for their own requirements, according to American grain men. The steel and automobile manu- facturers are after the South Ameri- | can business tooth and nail. This ef- fort has been intensified by the stiffen- ing of competition in the local markets. | Foreign sales of the leading medium | priced producers have jumped forward | this year, and while they have been | good in Europe, the trade looks to our | southern neighbors for a continued ex- | pansion of demand, American cars al- | ready hold a premier position and the building of highways, largely by use of American road-building machinery and American cement, is aiding the mo- | torization of the Latin countries. | "The agricultural implement manu- facturers may show in some instances {a gain of 40 per cent in foreign busi- | ness this year.
