AMERIGANS WANT 'EGYPTIAN BUSINESS Seck Trade in Alrica Which European Nations Had Cairo, Oct. 25.—American business men in Egypt are fighting to retain the trade between America and Egypt which was developed during the war ‘Wwhen the nations of Europe were too busy to attend to their foreign trade. This war-time trade gave American exporters a foothold but since the war, European competition has been resumed. The establishment of an agency in Egypt of the United States Shipping Board, followed closely by the open- ing of branches of the American Ex- press company, has stimulated and encouraged the American colony here. Individual Americans have created local American firms in association with Egyptian business men to pro- mote trade with America and have created the organization necessary to bandle the interests of American manufacturers and shipowners. . The recently organized American Chamber of Comerce is exerting every effort to assist American business interest to meet the keen European commetition and to maintain the en- viable position secured during the past years. o Prior to 1914, the United States was comercially a small factor in Egypt's trade. During the war when Egypt was cut off fromr the manu- facturing centers of Central Europe and the Egyptian importer turned to America and Japan. American goods flowed into Egypt and the buying pub- He became familiar with American products. This marked ‘the first step in the development of America’s trade with Egypt. War prices for cotton greatly en- riched the country and America bene- fitted by the increased importations of Juxuries, especially of automobiles ard by a good business in wheat and ficur. The enormous increase in business eompelled the American tire manufac- turers to buy large quantities of the long staple Egyptian cotton import- ing in 1919-1920. over 250,000 bales. The English coal strikes brought big ©oal contracts to America. Thus in a few years America was ushered in as e opportunist to play an important * Zole in Egyptian trade. By 1919 American exporters real- somewhat the importance of th: tian market, and some export houses established branches in Alex- andria and Cairo.

CHANGES IN SUPPLY OF GAS CONSIDERED Nation Camse Consultation -~ Chieago, Oct. 25.—As a result of . increasingly heavy demands made ‘mupon the oil resources of the nation, /the manufactured gas industry is now 'on the vergef o its third revolutionary .change—Theradical reduction «in the heating value requirements and per- haps the eventual elimination of the use of ‘petroleum in its manufacture— acording to enigneer members of the American Gass association, who will discuss this subject at the annpal meeting of the assoclation here on November 7 to 12.

Radical changes in the heat re- quirements of gas and the introduction of many fuel conservation measures in Europe during the war and since, in- tended to conserve the world's fuel supplies, are being studied at first hand by the association which has sent an engineer for the association across the Atlantic to make an investigation and report. He will make a report which will be part of a report of a report of a committee, which is mak- ng a world-wide study of the oil situation. His report is expected to be the last word in the latest develop- ments in the economical manufacture of gas. He has visited England, Ger- many France, Italy and many other countries. : SINGING BULL FIGHT Mexican Populace Varies as to Emo- tions When Attending Great Sport ‘Where Matadors Shine. Mexico, Oct.
