    Great Opportunity For

York, Aug. 10.—Bankers, ex-
P<*lrs and manufacturers were en
thusiastic yesterday in their assertions
that the opportunity presented to the
United States by the General Euro
pean war for increasing trade relations
with South America countries would
he developed to the fullest extent.
They pointed out that with the open
ing of the Panama Canal to merchant
vessels next Saturday their would be
still greater available resources for
trading with the countries on the west
coast.
There seemed no doubt in the minds
of rflost persons, thoroughly versed In
the commercial conditions of South
America that this country in the next
year should do the greater part of the
$2,000,000,000 South American trade
that has enriched Europe. Of that
trade Germany had a great part be
cause she developed in the last twenty
years her system of foreign credits and
extended such accomodations to trad
esr in South America as to enable
them to make ventures and increase
their business.

great amount of trade as the result of
the war now being waged in Europe.
He explained that as oon as the credit
situation was worked out successfully
by the banks—and that is being done
now—the exporters in this country
would be in a position to do business
with the South American merchants.
"There undoubtedly will be a big in
crease in our trade with Couth Amer
ica countries," he said. "The business
cannot fail but be developed gradually.
The South American countries in the
present situation must turn to use for
supplies which hitherto they have been
Kettlng from Europe. The business
of this country shoitld Increase
greatly."
It was predicted yesterday that the

countries to which foreign steel and

will be a demand for such things on

WEIGH MELTING POT
CONTENTS TOMORROW
Silver Candlesticks Used in Revo
lutionary Times Latest Con
tributions to the Cause
Contributions to Harrisburg's melt
ing-pot, the proceeds of which will go
toward creating a fund to be used in
furthering suffrage campaigns in sev
eral States, continue every day. Among
the latest contributions are a gold
bracelet, given by a young girl, and a
pair of silver candlesticks which were
used in Revolutionary times and which
are heavy with the metal. Mrs. Mabel
f'ronise Jones, president of the Central
Pennsylvania Association, will have the
articles weighed to-morrow. Although
the National Association has requested
that articles be sent to Chicago, where
a real melting-pot is to be constructed
and the articles dropped in it while a
motion picture photographer snaps the
action, if the Harrlshurg collection
turns out to be of unusual weight it will
be shipped to headquarters at Phila
delphia and disposed of at the mint
there. Although August 13 is the day
set . for putting the lid down on the
melting-pot, articles received after that
time, it was announced to-day, will be
duly forwarded. It is Impossible to
estimate the amount of gold and silver
bullion that will be obtained from the
Harrisburg melting-pot, but consider
able accretion to the suffrage cause
fund is expected to result from self
sacrifice day, Saturday, August 15.
The" latest suggestion is that the Sat
urday or Sunday auto ride be aban
doned. and that the money that would
otherwise pour into John D.'s coffers or
swell the income of rubber companies
be diverted to the cause. Some of the
suffragists also announce that they are
going to persuade the men folks to
give up smoking Saturday evening and
contribute this money to the cause.

charges but it is understood they will

afloat in the brotherhood circles to the
effect that Lee has been "carrying wa

by the local lodge two weeks ago on
suspicion of being "spies" for the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company.
None of the trainmen will talk on the
matter.

BIG SUM FOR RED CROSS
Mere Boy and Bent Old Man' Are
the First to Lay Savings
on the Table
In an address at an enthusiastic
• mass meeting of Slavs in Steelton
yesterday afternoon Burgess Fred
Wigfield, himself an Englishman by
birth, forbade sympathizers with any
of the warring European nations from
holding street parades or war demon
strations of any kind. He advised
them, further, to remain quiet and
refrain from discussing the war sit
uation with any adherents of the op
posing forces.
The meeting was held in Croatian
Hall, South Second street, and was for
the purpose of raising additional funds
for the Servian Red Cross. More than
200 Slavs tilled the long, narrow
benches or crowded around the walls,
packing the little hall to almost suffo
cation. When Burgess Wigfield, ac
companied by members of the Red
Cross committee, tiled into the room
and took their places on the narrow
stage In the front of the room there
was a great outburst of handclapping
and loud shouts of "Zivio! Zlvio!"
(Slavish for "Hurrah!") from the big
audience.
The meeting was presided over by
Stevan Memenic and Steven Koncar.
Beside them on the stage were Vojo
Yovanovic, treasurer of the Red Cross
committee; K. Pozega, secretary; Juro
Orallca. Stanko Srblc, Mile Minic and
Michel Horvath, mertibers of ttie com
mittee; Burgess Wigfield, Chief of Po
lice H. P. Longnaker and Adolph P.
Johanson.
Chairman Nemenic opened the
meeting with a short address review
ing the week's developments in Eu
rope. Kazimir Pozega, secretary of
the Red Cross committee, introduced
Burgess Wigfield.
Forbids Parades
In a short speech Burgess Wig
field forbade parades, advised against
heated discussions of the war and
complimented the Slavs for their
enthusiasm and for their liberal sup
port to the Red Cross fund. He called
attention to the fact that "Steelton is
a cosmopolitan town, containing many
subjects of every one of the nations
now at war.
"We are all members of one fam
ily." said the burgess, "and we should
sympathize with our brothers of all
nations. When this great war is over
we will have a great, long peace. *1
am glad to see that you ha.ve con
tributed ,so liberally to the fund to
alleviate the sufferings of the widows
and orphans of all the warring na
tions.
"Now, men, you are here in a neu
tral county; you can have no part in
the struggle. Don't let your enthusiasm
get away with you. Street demon
strations of any warlike nature are
forbidden. Maintain your present
peaceful attitude and don't let your
enthusiasm get away with you. Re
frain from discussing the war with
adherents of the opposing forces, es
pecially if you have had a drink or
two. If you don't follow this advice
and break the law, you will be ar
rested and fined and maybe placed in
jail. Now you are all poor men; we
don't want to fine you, for you can
use your money in other ways."
