PAGE TWELVE THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1940 SEEKING MARKETS FOR DOMINION IN WEST HEMISPHERE (Continued from Page 1) isting trade agreement with almost all the countries to be visited could be arranged. It was not expected actual dis- cussions along this line would be started during the mission's seven- week tour, since the time available at any capital would be brief. ye main purpose of the trip is to ex- plore the situation," he said, "and clear the ground for future negotia- tions. "From our information here, there seems to be a definite opportunity to develop wider markets in this hemisphere." When Mr. MacKinnon leaves here tomorrow he will be accompanied by the deputy, L. D. Wilgress, and two other officials of his depart- ment, Yves Lamontagne and G. B. Smith. They leave New York by plane Monday for Nassau, Baha- mas, returning to Miami on Wed- nesday. From there the mission goes to Jamaica, Colombia, Canal Zone, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, Trinidad and Cuba. Canada already has a trade agreement with the British West Indies. It came into effect in 1927 for a 12-year period, and since the outbreak of war has been extended indefinitely, almost certainly for the duration. The dominion also has "most favored nation" agree- ments with all the other countries to be visited except Peru, Chile and Cuba. Mutual problems developed for Canada and other western hemis- phere nations as a result of the war. German aggression shut off trade with Norway, the Nether- lands, Belgium and France. New markets had to be found. The Bri- tish navy has kept European enemy countries from shipping goods to this hemisphere. Canada found new markets in a hurry. Shipment of huge quanti- ties of war materials and foodstuff to Britain and other empire coun- tries more than replaced her lost markets in continental Europe. And jn addition she got increased ord- ers from western hemisphere na- ticns. She replaced Germany as third exporting nation, behind the United Kingdom and United States. Mr. MacKinnon nnounced a month ago that exports to South America were valued at $21,509,000 in the first 12 months of the war, an increase of 62 per cent. from the previcus year. Argentina and Bra- zil nearly doubled their purchases and every other South American country bought more goods. "The countries to be visited by the Canadian mission still -are suf- fering greatly from lack of markets and lack of source of supply," a trade official here said. "They are looking to North America to supply them with goods and to take their own products." One of the mission's principal duties, he said, would be to deter- mine what things Canada could buy in the nations to be visited. Many of .the products they could provide were available already to Canada, either from home production or from other empire nations. In addition, many of the coun- tries had only a limited amount of | foreign exchange available to pur- chase Canadian goods. "It's hard to say what Canadian products might be affected if ex- tended trade with these countries is arranged," he said. "It all de- pends on what the mission discov- ers the needs of the countries to be and what products Canada can profitably import to maintain a fairly reasonable balance on im- ports and exports." The official] said that since most of the nations to be visited received "most favored nation" treatment with Canada, any major change in tariff arrangements affecting one country likely would mean changes involving the other nation as well While Mr. MacKinnon and his mission are on their tour, two mems- pers of the Inter-American Devel- opment Ccmmission, Washington, will be in the same area, attempt- ing to establish groups in each of the American republie¢s for the bet- terment of western hemisphere trade. This American move with President Roosevell's "good neighbor" policy, under which the United States has signed trade treaties with most South American countries. Through the permanent inter- American economic and financial committee established at Panama last year, the United States is striv- ing to stimulate hemisphere collab- oration on economic matters. The U.S. import-export bank also is extending credit to some Latin American countries under which they may purchase equipment and other goods in the United States to strengthen their home industry, is in line 'Better Mousetrap' Inventor Waiting For Path to Door Los Angeles, Nov. 28 -- (AP)-- Frank Ford has done his part. Now he's waiting for the world to beat a path to his door. He has built a better mousetrap --a sort of endless chain mouse- trap--which he explains thus: Not much sooner has a mouse, enticed within by the inevitable hunk of cheese, been caught and electrocuted by an 8,000-volt cur- rent than his lifeless form drops through a trapdoor and the mech- anism is ready for the next victim. While waiting for the path to be beaten, Ford will exhibit his con- traption at the annual inventors' congress here next week. ITALIANS ADMIT BRITISH DAMAGE (Continued from Page 1) barked upon a policy of hammering her hard by air and sea while the Greek Army is pounding Mussolini's foot soldiers in Albania. "We are plugging in all we can, and more than we thought we could," one source commented in discussing British help for Greece. The extent of this aid has not been disclosed, but it is learned the Greeks have been given consider- able air support, while the British Navy has been constantly patrolling the Mediterranean in search of the enemy fleet and troopships. It was during such a patrol that Admiral Sir Andrew Cunningham's day. action said: "Information has been received that our naval forces in the Medi- terranean made contact shortly be- fore noon yesterday with an Italian force reported to consist of two battleships accompanied by a large force of cruisers and destroyers.
