SEAMAN PLACED IN HOSPITAL HERE Benjamin Outlaw, seaman, was brought to the city yesterday aft- ernoon from Miami in a seaplane of the coast guard. A small boat from the . Cutter Saukee went out for the man, brought him ashore and he was taken in Pritchard’s ambulance to the Marine hospital. ‘GOOD NEIGHBOR’ AIM SPUR IN HULL’S TRIP (Continued from Page One) his return trip up the west coast of South America, Trade Pacts Sought mation of dual trade ° pacts er than formulation of a blanket economic policy is the basic ‘idea of the Montevideo con- ference’s agenda. This fits the American administration’s Latin- American program. 5 Negotiations for reciprocal tariff treaties are under way between the United States, Argentina, Biazil-and Colombia. Discussions are promised with | Mexico and Cuba. -In these the administration is desirous of making the recovery program fit the American farm demand for greater expdrt outlet. But since increased . import de- mand in Latin-America countries ‘is contingent on broader markets for their products, economic law that this country must buy more if it expects to sell more. Latin-American Sales Off The sale of United States prod- uéts in Latin-America in 1932 showed a decline of $756,500,000 from the peak year, 1929, and purchases from those countries declined $748,900,000. ‘Trade figures for 12 Latin- ‘American ‘countries show that eight increased their purchases of United States goods over a similar period last year during the first eight mohths ending August, 1933. At the same time United States purchases declined in nine of those | countries, Exports to Mexico and Colom- bia increased approximately $2,- 000,000 and $3,000,000 respec- tively, while exports to Cuba de- creased about $4,000,000. Im- ports from Argentina jumped $6,- 000,000 for the eight months, but imports from Mexico dropped $7,- 000,000; from Cuba, $6,000,000;' from Venezuela, $6,000,000; from Chile, $5,000,000, and from Colombia, $8,000,000, Argentina Best Customer } Argentina consistently has been | Uncle Sam’s best customer in Latin-America, always buying more than she sold. Her pur- chases in 1929 ran about as far above $200,000,000 as her sales exceeded $100,000,000, but both fell back to around $30,000,000 ahd $20,000,000, respectively, ee 1932. The United States spent almost! $300,000,000 for Cuban pradects| each year between 1921 and 1925) compared with little more than} $60,000,000 in 1932, and sales to that country contracted fron: Around $170,000,000 to. scarcely} $30,000,000. Much of the decrease in United States sales to its Latin-American customers has been attributed to withdrawal of United States capi- tal from enterprises developing matural resources of Latin-Aner- fean countries as a result of stag-| & nated world markets. ha ao Here ALEXANDER M.
