New Netherlands Commer
; cial Policy To Shift Pur
chases to Indies Textile
Outlet Is Big Objective.
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.
