All of them are young, all are optimitti on the future of Ameriiafi industry, all are en tiniiianic in their confidence that American enterprise will ultimately dominate the world's markets, and ll have pit into the development of their tasks the instinctive tact and con sideration and the tireless appli cation that inevitably 'becomes a part of every woman once responsibility is thrust upon her. And each has acored a success as distinctive as it is well deserved. , Their ; individual Mtmpltt should urvt at a wonderful stimulus to the young business woman who' aspires id making a reputation for herself in her particular Held, in ctfch instance it was simply a case of taking oppor. tuniry b' the srrurf of tlie neck and ' shaking it until it aurrcnslcred. . Acci dent cut no figure whatever in the attainnienr of tneir goals. - ''he case of .Miss Lucy A, fjold. smith, aho is export manager for the Aeolian Company, of New York, is typical. A mere slip of a girl then, living in South America, several ihqosand miles away, she decided that she was to hecume a cog in the - big Aeolian Company orgsni'ntion. To day thesis spoken -ol as "one of the best ejeport merk in the country," and it's no joke. Jlow She Went About It ' ' Miss Goldsmith is modest, exceed ingly so. She refuses to see anything' remarkable in her experience and ex. plains her success merely as the nartiral lesulr- of doing her work conscien. ' liously., : , "In the first place," she explains, "(he great bulk of our.cariy. export trade was with South America; is yet, in fac;. And I KNOW South America. Ir was my home.- J. know die countries, llie people, tlicir ustes and temperaments. ' ..' . ' ' "In the second place I hand-picked my own work, ( don't just happen to be workitnv for the Aeolian Com pany. I decided long ago, down there in Colombia, that I wanted to be with them, and I came.

I rom time to time she made suggestions on what seemed to her possibilities of trade on that continent. Friendly Trade Foreign Trade The company, at that time, had n export department in New York. It had an immense Furopean business, but it was done through branches, in the various countries. There was no one in the New York office whose business it was to be a liaison officer between those foreign branches and to tcrve as the concentrated point of contact between them for the home office. GrndHy Lucy Goldsmith began to be such a person. And finally everyone suddenly awak, kened to the fact that such a position had come into existence and that Miss Goldsmith, still a stenogr.ipher, was holding it. That is the way she made her own job. "There-is nothing so effective as friendly trade to maintain friendly relations with foreign countries," Miss Goldsmith declares. "I realized this more emphatically than ever before when 1. went to Brazil and the Argen tine, in l'M5, for a' little survey trip. I saw then the effects of. German Mie wa enKa?d. Then she began, propaganda, supposedly conce rne a on y ing towaru ine iuumiuiii m- Jc?rdnriao H. Church.

Personally, 1 ln-lieve it in, worth wliih for bur niiinuiacturers to extend .frediu-j whenever and as far as flic 0 effn ut such rimes as this, or instance when exchange is aint our 'foreign buyers, in order not to lose' what foot hold wc have gained. . 1 hope-that the' matter of rierijr extension il( be one of the thint taken up at the Cleveland convention of the National, Forign Trade Council in May. ' If is one of rlie most important matter.) we have to discuss. ' ' ''O.ur own company, in its rxperienc? of years upon years in thosi: markets, has conclusively proved ihat the extension, of creti.it, provided ir be not indiscriminaiel v done, is a wise and , found policy. Some of our best and most promptly paying dealers in an n urn Iter of countries are iccounr. that were built up and encouraged b iiber;,! ited'i extemled by us in forme. ears." Miss Goldsmith is an optimist 011 the general outlook for foreign trade, "just as soon as the United States italizes how much it means tu every- cnei whatever his business, then I . believe we will thrcbh oiir a lot of , questions surrounding foreign trade which will be of tremendous value us," ihe said. ' "Get Foothold and nuilj" lake Miss Goldsmith, both rlfis Gladys Liggett, export manager for French & Ward, woolen manufac turers of New York, and Mrs. Jessa- mine II. Church, export manager for ihe Selby Sljoe Company, of Poits i.outh, Ohio, are enthusiastically optin.ir of the future of American export trade. hcth cmourage the. smaller manufacturer to investigate its possibilities, feeling that in the greater numbers of American exporters lies a greater strength lor American interests tu (he markets of the tlorld. . "A satisfactory and remunerative, foteign trade can be established with ' no .investment whatever' for adver tising or personal investigation of foreign fields," Mrs. Church declares. "Providing of, course that one's product js. of general use onfl he is willing to meet the demands of his foreign cus tomer in the matters of manufacture, delivery and perhaps occasional credit concessions. 1 1 is merel y a matter of getting a foothold and building upon it. I' know- several concerns whose business abroad now runs consider ably in excess of 100,000 annually, who made such starts." Miss. Liggett adds a woitl of wirn ing also stressing service, "The most potent factor in foreign trade," she declares, "is service. You use it, you give it; so does your buyer., your competitor. Service to our foreign customers inevitably means more busi ness for us. The more; you give the more yoii will receive. , - "It is an indisputable fact that the ' industries of a country control, to a high degree, the national feeling toward all other nations. The upbuilding and strengthening of service in your export business cannot fail to act as an impetus to the promotion of a friendlL internarional spirit tow an! us.
