Good Field Abroad for American Banks
New York January 23. Breckenridge Lodge third assistant secretary of state urged American banks to handle investments abroad, especially in war devastated areas. He warned trade may shift away from prewar channels as political changes and reorganized companies occur and said the state department must aid exporters and importers via consuls worldwide. Chao Shin Psu Chinese consul general in San Francisco said American firms have not fully pursued Far East trade opportunities. He noted German interests have largely faded and urged expanding American foreign trade to replace German roles, a shift he said will be lasting.
