PRE-WAR TRADE S SHOWN N FIGURES Records Excoed Those of the 1913 Period New York, Nov. 11 (® — The world has fallen short by more than $210,000,000,000 of the total of mer- chandise exports it would have added to International trade if it had not been for the World War, according to estimates contained in an “Armistice Day Accounting” is- sued by the National Foreign Trade council. Due to the “economic dis- location,” caused by the war, says the accounting, which is based on the forelgn trade of 70 nations which do more than 90 per cent of the world's export trade, the world | only succeeded last year in getting | back to a 1913 basis, for the flrst% time since the war. | Thesa nations had an export trade 1 in 1913 valued at $19,426,000,000. Last year the flgure was $29,970,- 000,000, but at 1913 buying power this only amounts to $19,950,000,000. | The amount of world trade there would have been if there had been no war was reckoned by the rate of advance from 1900 to 1913, which amounted to 614 per cent annually. To meet the setback caused by the war, it was said, world trade has| now accelerated its pace and for the | past three years the advance has| been more than 10 per cent annual- | ly. Bven at this rate, however, it| will take 30 years to make up for | what has been lost. | United States Gains Fastest. ‘ Even this country, which has gained almost 32 per cent in real ex- ports since 1913 and has made the greatest gain of all nations in vol- ume of trade acquired, is still more than $2.000,000,000 behind the ex- port trade it would have had if the pra-war gain had been uninterrupt- ed. The accounting records a distinct shakeup in 1913 alignments of trade | power among the 70 nations. Europe | now holds but 49 per cent of the world's export trade, as against a pre-war 62 per cent. As Furope has shrunk as an export continent, En. lish-speaking North Amtrlca_ h: risen by 40 per cent, Latin North America and the West Indies by 52 per cent and South America by § cent. w;ula'- increase is greatest of all, 521 per cent; Australasia has ex- panded its exports by 45% per cent and Africa by 16 per cent. 80 Million Acres of Waste Land in U. S. New Haven, Ct, Nov. 11.—P— There are 80,000,000 acres of waste land in the United States which could be made into excellent timber territory with proper care and supervision, it was stated here to- day by Ovid M. Butler, secren_ary of the American Forestry association, who is in New Haven to confer with | ofticials of the Connectieut Forestry association and the Yale School of Forestry on plans for the annual convention of the national assocl- | ation to be held here in January. “Unless the government and the people are awakened to the neces- sity of preserving America’s forest lands” he eaid, “there will be no old growth timber available within forty years. There is a crying need for better cooperation between the federal government and the states and for the awakening of the public to the seriousness of the situation. At the present rate of cutting nnd{ with the frequency of forest fires, the United States will have no timber of its own In less than half a century.” = | | Man Killed by Gas in | Stamford Rooming House | Stamtord, Conn., Nov. 11 (P—| Thomas Cooney, 48, believed to be from Gloucester, N.

A ukulele sextette thrums MNturgical music and leads the congregation in psalm singing at Sunday services. The Rev. C. C. Champlin,pastor, admits installation of the “uke” as a source of sacred music is a de- parture, even though its tones may, be as soft as any produced by the psalter, dulcimer, timbrel, sackbut or cymbals associated with sacred music in the Bible. However, the congregation has lauded the pas« tor's originality. The ukulele sextette soon will be increased to a sacred orchestra of 24 pleces.

Reliable News IF “SO-AND-SO” told you that “Somebody”. said “such- and-such” was a good buy—you probably wouldn’t buy it. But if you read an advertisement in this paper about the merits of that product—you’d have confidence in it. ‘ Advertisements are reliable. The merchant or manufacturer who signs an advertisement knows that he must keep faith. He knows that when you come in to buy you will expect the goods to be just what he has claimed. He realizes that if he deceives you once, your trade is lost. Never was there a more severe test of the worth of a product than advertising! You can pin your faith to an advertised product every time. It invites the inspec- tion of millions and it must be worthy or it cannot live.
