Bray, United States Consul-General at Singapore, who was In Portland yesterday en route to Washington, D. C. 'The people," he said, "are eager to get American goods as fast as, they become familiar with the quality. American trade is increasing, although this is greatly handicapped by the lack of tonnage." As a method of increasing the com merce of the United States with the countries of the Orient, Mr. Bray sugr gested that the large manufacturers of this country join in the establishment of large houses in the principal cities of the Far East, where goods made in the United States could be displayed and demonstrated. The Straits Settlements is prosperous, ays Mr. Bray, with the rubber and sugar cane industries developing rap Idly. An Increasing demand for goods is predicted as a result. Allen R.
