MEDPORD MATL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON. FRIDAY. APRIL 13, 1034. AMSTERDAM. (UP) Develop ments point to Impending loase of Latin American trade with Holland, and Argentina and Brazil are likely soon to feel the brunt of the Nether-1 landB new commercial policy. The Argentine has heretofore been the main purveyor of maize to Hol land, but the Dutch have now ord ered 100,000 tons of maize from the Dutch East Indies. In return for which the latter will grant prefer ence to textile goods from Holland. At the same time, an Inclination Is observable here to levy higher dut ies on Brazilian coffee in favor of the Dutch East Indian product as well as the latter 's tea. No definite decision has been reached on this subject yet, however. Cuba may be one of the next Latin American countries to suffer com mercially in Holland, although Cu ban exports to the Netherlands are small. In case of a trade agreement between the Dutch East Indies and Japan and such an accord Is soon to be discussed Japan would be likely to draw heavily upon the East Indies for her sugar supply, to the distinct disadvantage of Cuba. Trade Balance Unfavorable Holland considers that she is buy ing altogether too much from South America, in view of the small South American purchases of Dutch pro duce. The tiade balance between the Netherlands and Important Latin American countries has been strong ly adverse to Holland. In the first 10 months of 1033. for Instance, accord ing to Dutch figures, Holland Im ported goods to the value of 33,583, 130 gold pesos (approximately $25, 000,000) from Argentina, compared with Argentine imports from Holland totalling only 6,629,549 guilders (about (3.200,000) in the correspond ing period. While Holland Is Argen tina's third best customer, the Ar gentine ranks as twelfth In the list of Holland's customers. The Dutch trade balance with Brazil la not much better, and so Holland is set ' ting out to Improve those balances with lrm determination. Trouble Brewing In the meantime, trouble Is brew ing within the Dutch family. Hol land's beet-sugar growcrs: and the Dutch East Indies' sugar-cane pro ducers are engaged In bitter competi tion for the home-markets. Accumu lated sugar stocks In Java at the end of 1933 amounted to 2,747,300 tons and It is only thanks to approxim ately 20,000.000 guilders of govern ment subsidies that the Dutch beet sugar Industry Is able to keep alive In the teeth of potential East Indian competition. The East Indian growers assert that they could easily undersell Hol land's sugar producers In the latter's home market, but the duties of 38.25 guilders per 100 kilograms are virtu ally prohibitive. Sugar stocks In Hol land ran to 329.600 tons at the end of 1933. compared with 258,000 tons at the close of 1932, and planted area in Holland In 1933 and 1932, respec tively, was 40.173 and 37,477 hectares larger than In previous years. Beet sugar growers In Holland ad mit their inability to compete with their East Indian rivals in fair, un hampered rivalry, but they argue that the protection of home Industry is necessary to avert Increased unemployment. OLDEST APPLE - TREE LOCATED The oldest apple tree In Oregon Is growing In the Brownsboro section, Charles Terrell, a pioneer native sen of Jackson county, reported when in Medford today. It is believed to have been p. anted back In the early 50's when settlers were together In a fort seeking protection from marauding Indians. The seed was dropped from an apple and took root and developed into one of the biggest fruit tress in the west. It is still bearing apples, Mr. Terrell reported. He also told of the first threshing machine brought to southern Oregon It was used until a few years ago and Is now In the Lake creek section, where he resides. Mr. Terrell has In his possesion what he believes 10 be the first cider press in this section and has offered to display it during Oregon's Diamond Jubilee celebration here next June. 4. E. C. ("Jeryy") Jerome, general chairman of Oregon's Diamond Jubi lee, accompanied by Hugh E. Rowan, advisory manaeer, here from Eugene, and E. E. Marnh, manaeer. motored to Ashland yesterday to develop plans witrt the neighboring city regarding an aU-Ah.and day at the Jiible.
