22 WILL INVADE LATIN AMERICA Mississippi Valley Concerns to Take Advantage of Trade Conditions Memphis. Tenn., Aug. 22. A visit to Latin-American countries by Mississippi Valley concerns in terested in taking advantage of new trade conditions since the ending of the war and to include representa tives of Chicago. St. Louis, Mem phis. Cincinnati. New Orleans and many inland cities, is planned for this fall and winter. Not less than 300 commercial, financial and busi ness establishments are to be rep resented. It is proposed to make an exten sive trip to ascertain by personal observation the business conditions and possibilities in South America and how the Mississippi Valley can best develop its trading interests with the Latin states. The movement was started by the New Orleans Association of Commerce, which already has dele gated a committee to interest other similar organizations and which al so has taken up with the United States Shipping Board the question of obtaining a vessel for the trip. It is the intent to start about November, on a tentative itinerary that will take the delegation to Cuba, Jamaica, Santa Domingo. Haiti, cities in Venezuela, Colom bia, Panama, Ecuador, Peru, Chile and back through the Panama Canal. It is quite certain from local in formation, that Memphis and St. Louis will bo well represented and assurance has been obtained that Chicago and Cincinnati will like wise send a number of representa tives. The proposal is of especial interest in the lower Mississippi Valley because of recent announce ment and assurance that river transportation is to be much im proved as far north as Memphis and St. Louis and likewise because of rapid development of livestock and agricultural progress in the lower valley country. Ovation Is Given Prince of Wales as He Lands at Quebec Quebec, Aug. 22.—Welcomed by strains of "God Save the King," and a royal salute from the guns in the old citadel, the Prince of Wales landed here last night for his first visit to the ancient capital of French Canada. He was brought ashore from the battleship Ilenown and landed on King's wharf. The Prince, who was followed by Sir Robert Borden, prime minister of Canada, was greeted on the wharf by the Governor General of Quebec, the Duke of Devonshire, Cardinal Begin, head of the Roman Catholic church in this country, and Mayor Lavigeur. While the big guns were booming their welcome, a series of pyrotech nic bombs burst in the air above him and at each explosion a flag of one of the Allies was unfurled. A squadron of airplanes circled above the royal party. At 6.15 the Prince and the Duke of Devonshire motored together to Upper Town, through Mountain Hill, and St. Louis street. The Prince was cheered by large crowds along the route while church bells tolled their welcome. Dr. Karl Muck, Held as Interned Alien, Returned to Germany Now York, Aug. 22.—Dr. Karl Muck, former conductor of the Bos ton Symphony Orchestra, who had been interned at Fort Ogelthorpe, Ga., for several months because of his pro-German sympathies, sailed yesterday for Copenhagen on the steamship Frederick VIII. He was accompanied to the pier by an agent of the Department of Justice, who warned the captain of the steam shin to see that Dr. Muck did not get off the vessel inside the three mile limit. Dr. Muck's name was not on the passenger list and he was not recog nized until an enthusiastic fellow countryman called him by name and threw his arms around his neck and kissed him. The musical director was very bitter against the United States authorities. It has been reported that Dr. Muck asked to be deported now to avoid involuntary deportation later with other interned aliens under legislation now pending in Congress, so that he may be able to return later to the United States.
