FOREIGN TRADE
EXPERT SPEAKS
IE
NEW PLANE POWERED BY AUTOMOBILE MOTOR
An Interesting addreea on foreign
trade raa presented before the lunch,
eon meeting of the Medeford Rotary
club At Hotel Medford todny. by H. E
Waterbury of Portland. Mr. Water
burv Apoke with authority a he Is
menoazer of t district embodying Ore
gon, Idaho, and southern Waahing
ton for the bureau of foreign and do
mestic commerce., U. 8. Department
of Coruir.croc.
Tli.e problems of Oregon and Waah
Irvjton are Identical, a both state
produce similar commodities, Mr.
Waterbury eaJd. Oregon raise con
alderably more than the state can
roTunime, he said. In pointing out
that twenty-fire per cent of Oregon's
lumber goes to foreign countrlei,
while markets In other countries re
ceive forty per cent of Oregon's grain
nd flour. sixty-five per cent of the
apples and forty to fifty per cent of
the pears and canned goods produced
here.
Tn discussing the volume of Ore
gon's exports. Waterbury pointed out
that the depression In this state might
be well attributed to the slump In
foreign markets, as evidenced by the
furl that the 1033 export total was
only approximately twenty per cent
oi tne volume in leas. New trade
agreements, however, give promise of
continued improvement.
Of special Interest to southern Ore
gon people, were the export figures on
fruit, given by Waterbury. Depression
time shipments of apples were even
greater than previous ycara, although
netting leas return. The shipment of
pears has been more favorable, due
to trade agreements with Prance and
other iropejin countries.
Mr. Waterbury discussed In detail
the status of foreign trade before,
during and after the World war when
the United States assumed the role
of a creditor nation. At the end of
thp orgy of buying In 1929, trade bar
riers were set up by thle country,
and other countries retaliated. Now
the administration Is endeavoring to
Improve conditions through special
concession trade agreements. Such
agreements hsve already been com
pleted with 18 nations. Cuba being
the first. Sweden, a country In plen
d!d financial condition At this time,
should present a good market for
Rogue River Valley fruit, according
to Waterbury.
The speaker concluded with a brief
discussion of the much discussed
Russian situation, and pointed out
that already this year private and
public Interests have purchased in
excess of twenty-five million dollars
worth of American products. The new
ly completed agreement with Russia
calls for a volume of thirty million
dollar during 1035, and Indications
are that thla total will be exceeded
by a substantial figure.
As a concluding feature of the pro
gram. C. D. Huston of the education
al department of the Chevrolet Motor
company, entertained the Rotsrlans
nd guests with brief talking pic
ture program.

LUMBER INDUSTRY
FUTURE BRIGHTENS
SEATTLE. Aug. 20. ( AP) An In
crease of 17,000 cars of lumber a
year to be hauled by rallroada Into
the area from the Illlnols-Indlitna
line eaatward to the Atlantic coast
was predicted today by the West
Coast Lumbermen's association as a
result of the 73 cent freight rate
on lumber from the Psclfic north
west to points east of Chicago, ef
fective Saturday.
The decrease was announced yes
terday by the Interstate commerce
commission.
"The beat news In the world, the
best the west coast lumber Industry
has had for a long time," the asso
ciation commented, referring to the
new rate.
"The principal effect will be felt
at once by the rail mills, those spec
lalltlryr In the retail lumber trade,
fumuhtng lumber to railroads and
to factories for remsnulacturing.
Most of this business would nor
mally flow by rail and the new rate
will open up a large and important
territory to the west coast mills."
