In 1913, th value of the trade of the westeri frontage of South America with th entire United States was but $79, 000,000, while in 1921 the trade o that section of South America wit! the United States was $139,000,000. These gains in our trade with th Pacific frontage of our neighborinj continent at the south, adds the bank' statement, bring sharply to the at tention of the commercial world th* remarkable change which has devel oped in our South American trade ii recent years. From 1900 up to 192< the trade of the United States witl South America had shown a continu ous "adverse balance." The import: From that continent were constantly greater than the exports thereto, bu in the fiscal year 1921 the "balance, For the first time in many years changed in our favor and in the 1! months ending with June, 1921, ou exports to South America were 3! million dollars greater than the im ports therefrom, the actual figure: standing: Imports from South Amer ica, $485,250,000; exports to Soutl America, $523,450,000; excess of ex ports over imports, $38,200,000. The persistency of this "adverse balance" in the pre-war conditions i not surprising. The United States i a very large importer of tropical an* sub-tropical foods and also of raA manufacturing materials, while he M- ? exports are cnieny iooa, manuiactur ing materials and manufacturers. A South America was a large produce of coffee, cocoa and other tropica foods, and also of wool, rubber, cop per, tin and other manufacturing ma terials Imported by the United State? it was quite natural that our pur chases from that continent should b heavy, while the fact that Soutl America did not need our foods o raw material and had the habit o buying her manufactures iA Europ kept the value of our sales to tha continent much below that of our pur chases therefrom. With the changes of the war, how ever, and the reduction ' the quantit; of manufactures offered from Europe the South Americans made closer ac quaintance with our manufactres an< liked them, and also found it advisa ble to buy their coal from us espec ially during the period of coal short age in the United Kingdom fror which they had drawn most of thei former supplies. These changed conditions have re suited in the general increase in Soutl America's demands upon our manu factures, and readily suggest the an swer to the query as to how it happen that the "adverse trade balance which existed for many years in ou trade with that continent has noi changed to a "favorable balance amounting to 38 million dollars in th (i?pnl vnnr 1091 ALL FOR ONE, ONE FOR ALL (It is an hour for the fearless) ROBBING GOVERNMENT TRAINS IS DANGEROU: Kansas City, Mo., Dec. 1.?Bobbin; government trains is a dangerous an unremunerative occupation, accord in to Joe P.

Mr. Johnson admits tha registered mail robberies have lice in distnct vogue recently, but he in sists that they do not really offer th opportunity to get rich quick tha those who attempt them believe ex ists. Rather, says Mr. Johnston, they of Per a remarkable opportunity to ge killed or sent to prison quick. Thei he recites the fates that have over taken many mail bandits. "They all get killed for sent t prison in the long run," he remarks 'and usually it isn't such a very loni run, either." Robbing themails, the veteran post office inspector says, probably will b less attractive than ever since th government has stationed marin guards on trains carrying valuabl mails, and provided escorts of "dev: dogs" for mail trucks and guards fo rooms where mail is handled. Th instruction given the marines ar very explicit. It is a guard's duty t known who is authoried to handl mail, and to allow no one else t handle it. It is his duty to know wh is permitted in the room or car wher mail is handled and to permit no on else there. It is his duty, in case any r\nn affamnfa f a *aV\ t L>. ***??)?

"Under Secretary Denby's orders, says Mr. Johnston, "about the onl reason that is considered valid is tha the bandit has killed the marine first. "There has been an epidemic of ma: robberies recently," Mr. Johnston cor tinued. "I believe the reason is tha a lot of young fellows believe there i easy money in large amounts to t had. That is a mistake. Ordinaril the loot obtained from registere sacks is not easily negotiable, and th bandit, even if he gets away with i gets a small proportion of the vak of the loot."

Santo Sofcs tile of Charleston is associated with the New Jersey governor in business in New Jersey. The Greenville people are making -j elaborate preparations for the enteri tainment of the members of the association, according to a letter received by Harold C. Booker, secref tary, from Judson W. Chapman, sect retary of the automotive trades bu. reau of the Greenville Chamber of Commerce. "It fs safe to say," wrote > Mr. Chapman, "that no dealer will be r disappointed with the entertainment ^ program being planned and we . strongly advise every dealer in the 3 state to come here himself and de. termine the accuracy of this state ! mont." Every automobile dealer in the state, whether he is a member of the j e association or not, has been invited s to attend the Greenville meeting. I AM.

For centuries they belonged to Sweden ' through its control of Finland, but they fell into the hands of Russia n when Russia absorbed Finland. Sweden then became fearful of Russia's militarism, as control of the Aland Is? lands by Russia rendered Stockholm 5> liable to bombardment. p After the world war Sweden appealed to the Peace onference at Versailles to have possesion of the islands e decided on the principal of self-detere mination and consented to their neue tralization.
