ORLD TRADE TIES tthew Anderson of Liver- ’pool Discusses Prospect at Luncheon Here. International ties of business and trade may some day become more effi- cacious in banishing war than all the negotiations of diplomats, and that day s mot far off if present tendencies con- inue In existing channels, Matthew Anderdon, official representative of the ity of Liverpool, told more than 80 of business and civic leaders of Wash- ington at a luncheon sponsored by the directors of the Washington Board of Trade yesterday in the Willard Ecztel. Nations will soon find, he declared, that to make war on one another will be to make war on their own interests, 80 interwoven are their commercial in- terests. Liverpool is an example of this, he declared. Between 600 and 700 ves- sels yearly sail into the British port with American cargoes, and America is Liverpool's chief mecrket for her ex- he asserted. He said that if this were suddenly cut off his city could no longer exist as a commercial and shipping center. He told of the recent development of Liverpool, the second largest city in| {England, where since the war $120,000,- 000 has been spent for improvements to the docks, $25,000,000 for a tunnel and $250,000,000 for increasing the trade fa- cilities. ‘The municipality has also built 38,000 homes for its workers and ac-| quired 3,000 acres of industrial land, ‘which will be sold to industrial firms at cost and so prevent speculation and any consequent impediment in the city’s growth. ‘The “dole” to the unemployed in Eng- land was explained and defended by the speaker, who said it was a necessary and integral part of the British system of social insurance, which includes free medical treatment and the old age and ‘widows’ pensions. As a result of these laws, he declared, the members of the labor unions are the most conservative people in England. Other speakers at the meeting, which was presided over by E. J. Murphy, pres- ident of the Board of Trade, were Com- mmissioner Proctor L. Dougherty and Edward L. Bacher, head of the foreign commerce division of the United States Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Dougherty welcomed the visitor. Reasons for Branches. Mr. Bacher told of the reasons why American manufacturing firms establish branches abroad. He said it was not #0 as to make use of cheaper labor and undersell American-made goods in the United States, but because it has been found the best method of promoting trade in European countries. ‘The causes of this, he said, are pref- erential . duties, local preference for lo- «cally manufactured goods and avoidance of the high cost of transportation. ~ Mr. Anderson is touring this country in the interests of the promotion of trade between Liverpool and the United Btates and to complete negotiations with S MAY BANSH AR Seventh Street Employe’s Courtesy Gets Railroad In Suit for $32,500 ‘The courtesy of an employe of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Co. in taking hold of the arm of a woman' passenger in an effort to assist her to alight from a train at Union Station July 26 caused the filing of damage suits against the company totaling $32.500 yes- terday in the District Supreme Court.
