Note—Greater light . and clearer perspective on Herbert Hoover's trip to South America, in which untold diplomatic advantages were recorded Jor the United States, aré to be gained from the interesting story written by Rer Collier, The Star's own representative on the trip, which began January 20. The story, with all its intimate details, will continue in The Star until completed. BY REX COLLIER. President-elect Hoover's visit to “air- minded” Peru stimulated interest in one of his pet projects—a far-reaching sys- tem of Pan-American airways. For years he had advocated the link- ing of the two American continents by air _and his trip down the west coast of Central and South America was con- vincing him of the potential impor- tance of the airplane as a messenger of international good will. President Leguia's enterprise in send- ing an airmail plane to greet him at Guayaquil had struck a responsive chord in the Hoover symphony of ideas. Step by step the President-elect’s vision of a great North and South system of airplane routes connecting the cities of North America with the capitals below the Equator was taking shape. The vision was an inspiring one, and it impelled him to deliver in Lima one of the most eloguent and mosb signifi- cant addresc.s of his good-will tour. The speech, made at the state banquet tendered in his honor at the Pizarro Palace by President Leguia, disclosed that Mr. Hoover had given careful thought to the future of aviation in the Americas from the particular stand- point of Pan-American comity. Backs Airways Link. “It is impossible,” he told the Peru- vian Bresident, “to estimate the impor- tant consequences of this revolution in communication and transportation be- tween our peoples. “I should like to take this occasion to suggest that the time has come when by mutual co-operation of each of our governments it is feasible to secure at once this further important link be- tween our nations. “I am convinced that by a few prac- tical steps in the organization of air- ways and at no great public outlay we can secure the establishment of this service through the enterprise of the citizens of each of our countries.” So enthused was the President-elect over aviation prospects in South Amer- ica that he ventured the prediction that a practicable airway system could be placed in operation within a year were the nations involved to “gather around a council table.” “In the days of the early settlement of the Western World,” he stated, “it would have required three months to travel from Washington to Lima.

MIAMI, Fla., February 13.—Alfred E. Smith, former Governor of New York, embarked yesterday afternoon on what he said was his first voyage on a steam- ship and his second trip outside of the United States. The standard bearer of the Democratic party in the presi- dential race, accompanied by Mrs. Smith and a party of friends, left here at 4:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon by In the party were: John J. Raskob, Statement Nothing Rash. ‘There was nothing rash in this state- ment, startling though it seemed. ‘The American President-elect had spent much time over maps in the study of ible air routes before he had reached the conclusion it was “possible to secure at once” & system of Pan-American airways. He knew that the American pdstal authorities already had projected an airmail route to Panama, From Pan- ama the route lay through Colombia, where airways were in successful opera- tion under supervision of German in- terests, and then southward through Ecuador to Peru. The establishment of an airmail line between Lima and Guayaquil had paved the way for an airway program in Ecuador, which had been lagging in aviation development. Peru itself was being supplied with efficlent airplane service through aggressiveness of American aviation in- TORCH CLUB ADDRESS GIVEN BY DR. WOODS “Process of Securing Accreditment of a College” Topic of Month- ly Meeting Speaker. An address by Dr. George B.

The republic had come to re- gard the airplane as an indispensable means of transportation between some of its isolated mountain communities. Time was when its inland rubber metropolis, Iquitos, was almost inac- cessible from the west coast. Commu- nication was maintained with the world by way of the Amazon River and the Atlantic Ocean. The Americans, how- ever, had tied Iquitos to ghe capital with a regular air service that reduced the time required for the journey from one month to two days. A trip over the same route previously had involved use of dugout canoes, mules, ship, auto- mobile and train. First Use as Sprayers. Peru, moreover, had been the first country in South America to use the airplane for the destruction of insect pests. The planes were flown low over vast cotton fields and insecticides were sprayed over the menaced “crops with telling effect. There were airways south of Peru, too. Chile had proved a lively field of competition for European plane manu- facturers, and air service was being provided over several routes. With this aviation activity in evi- dence along the entire west coast of the Southern continent it seemed a pity to President-elect Hoover that the systems were not interconnected. He envisioned a single system of airways extending from the east coast of the United States through Central America and down the picturesque west coast of South America. Good will? What better way could there lbe to bring the peoples of the Western World together on a basis of better under- standing than by the distance-erasing airplane? “This new tool in world progress,” Mr. Hoover told the Peruvian dent, “is significant of our times. It, with many others, brings to us new problems in government, but the great purpose of government in free peoples remains the same. Aid to Understanding. “Every expansion in transmission of intelligence and in daily contacts of our peoples adds fo that precious growth of understanding. and respect which makes for mutual interest and good will, “I should be proud indeed if I might contribute to the furtherance of so great a development.” Mr. Hoover’s implied hope that the governments of Pan-America might as- semble at the council table to effect a the | co-ordination of airways, coupled with his expressed wish to “contribute to the furtherance” of Pan-American aviation, seemed very significant. Some thought his remarks indicated an intention to call a Pan-American air conference upon assumption of the presidency. Mr. Hoover's gddress created a pro- found impression upon the exclusive circle of dignitaries sitting around Pres- ident Leguia’s banquet table. President Leguia himself evidenced his hearty concurrence in the thoughts expressed by the American President-elect. ‘The Peruvian President had advanced the theme of Pan-Americanism in his own address. He had pictured the union of American republics as “a bul- wark of liberty for all the nations of the VZestern World.” The visit of Mr. Hoover, he declared, had furthered the cause of Pan-Americanism to an extraordinary degree. The Hoover pro- posal to spread Pan-Americanism by means of the airplane plainly captured Senor Leguia’s imagination. A feeling prevailed among the guests at the banquet that they were witness- ing the spontaneous launching of a movement that eventually must._revolu- tionjze transportation and communica- tion between the Americas. & Reception and Dance, Following the presidential banquet there was a formal reception and dance in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Hoover. The President-elect and his wife were con- veyed to all of the functions in the antique barouches under escort of the presidential lancers. The American Secret Service men found the carriage arrangements anything but pleasant, for they were compelled to jog along beside the conveyances, in imminent danger of being trod upon by prancing horses. Besides, it was fatiguing work to keep up with the pace of the steeds. Fortunately for the Secret Service men, the 8-mile trip back to Callao was negotiated in automobiles, and never did they enjoy an automobile ride so thoroughly. It was after midnight when the party arrived at the port, but a huge throng of citizens was on hand to give the Americans a rousing send-off. Hats and handkerchiefs were waving and cries of “Viva Hoover!” and “Viva los Americanos!™ filled the air as the boats of the Maryland shoved off from the dock. The final “fadeout” was a vision of ships outlined against the night with garla. 1s of elect:’. lights strung from stem to stern along the rails and up- ward to topmasts and smokestacks; of gorgeous fireworks bursting over the placid harbor, and of the lights of tm old seaport growing indistinct in ti ce.

Four dc;fs. chained to the outside of the bullding, also perished. News of the tragedy was brought here by an airplane. The barks of the terri- fied dogs roused R. F.

BY DAVID LAWRENCE. ‘The Federal Trade Commission has just made to the Senate a significant report on how price-fixing may be pre- vented and yet trade associations per- mitted to continue their constructive influence in business. But the Trade Commission has also recommended that a licensing system be instituted, so that trade association activities may become better known to the Government and so that certain ac- tivities which come close to a violation of the anti-trust laws may be eradi- cated. The commission feels that the circu- lation of price information “in a form to identify the results for individual members is so unnecessary to the gen- eral statistical work of associations and so susceptible of abuse that it might be explicitly declared illegal, irrespective of intent.” Refers to Court Opinions. g The opinions of the Supreme Cour of the U‘l’l“fld States in this connection are referred to by the Trade Commis- sion, in support of its contention, and it is further pointed out that a con- stescy of prices is apt to indicate arti- ficial price control. The commission’s report in effect traces the established policy of the United States Government with respect to competition and gives some advice to trade associations. “It is undoubtdly better,” says the commission. “for the trade assoclation, if its members, as such, do not have too concentrated or exclusive an inter- est in prices. -The decision of what is the fair price should not be left merely to the seller, still less to a group of sellers, There is. perhaps. no more propefly individualistic social phenome- non to be encountered among civilized men than the price-making in’ open competitive market. ~Conditions and circumstances under which the prices are arrived at may be properly a sub- ject of regulation and of groun decision, but seldom the soecific price itsclf on a specific commodity. Face Important Task. “A frank and above-board interest in the standardization of certain practices that practically and. too often covert- 1y, affect costs to the buyer is a fleld for trade assoclation activity of much promise. To keep such work free from the taint of conspiracy and illegal re- straint of trade is, however, an im- portant task for the permanent pilots of trade associations and one in which they apparently need outside advice and assistance.” The foregoing is in line with the policy advocated by Col. Donovan, Assistant Attorney General, to the effect that business organizations and cor- porations deserve the co-operation of the Government when they seek ad- vice as to whether their activities are contravening anti-trust laws and how they may make their practices conform to the spirit and letter of the law. The Trade Commission’s report may be the basis of recommendations as to trade practice legislation in the next session of Congress. (Copyright, 1020.) MRS. ORRA G.

MADE BY THE MAKERS OF NUJOL (3 TROTSKY REACHES HAVEN IN TURKEY Exiled Russian Red Leader Arrives in Constantinople After Month’s Mystery. By the Associated Press. CONSTANTINOPLE, February 13—/ Leon Trotsky, former leader of the Red army and an exile because of his op- position to the policies of the present regime in Soviet Russia, has arrived in Constantinople from Russian Tur-| kestan. | Trotsky's arrival in Constantinople | clears up the mystery of his where- | abouts, which has been puzzling Europe | for almost a month. More than a year | ag0 Trotsky was banished to the lit- tle town of Alma Aata, in Russian Tur- | kestan, because of his opposition tactics against the policies of the dominant Stalin group in Russia. Campaign Disturbs Moscow, For a time he dropped into complete obscurity, but in recent months there have steadily appeared indications that his opposition campaign was again dis- turbing the central government at Mos- cow. Trotsky’s friends, expressing par- | ticular alarm over his health, had| sought, to have him removed to a more | favorable climate, fearing that he would | die if he remained at Alma Aata. | Last month news was received that the Turkish government had been asked it it would permit Trotsky to enter that country. Immediately rumors spread across Europe that he was to go to Constantinople and to live there more or less under guard. He did not put in an appearance, however, and rumors then arose that he was to go to Ber- lin, but the German government gave clear indication that it would not wel~ come this. Was Reported Drowned. For a time it was reported that Trot- sky had been drowned in the sinking of a Russian ship on the Black Sea during violent storms two weeks ago. This was belied when the ship arrived at Constantinoole and it was stated that he had never been aboard her. Since then nothing further was heard con- cerning the former Red army leader. Despite the absolute secrecy sur- rounding his arrival, the Assbciated Press was assured from an official source that he was aboard the Soviet ship Illitch, which arrived in Constanti- m’;la_l';e last evening. Illitch remained in the harbor some distance from the quay and Trot- guard. ‘There are more than 2,000 White Russians, refugees from Russia, who live in Constantinople and the pos- sibility that one of these might seek re.venge upon Trotsky caused these pre- utions.
