These marbles are vividly colored
and are made of a new molded ma-
terial. They combine the brilliant
color of glass marbles, the proper
weight obtained only in composition
marbles and the strength of steel.
The Bally firm reports a stead ily
increasing demand for the Senior
Model Goofy, while the demand for
the Junior Model continues steady.
The Senior model is 45 inches long,
22 inches wide, 36 inches high; it in-
cludes all the features of the Junior
model-on a larger, more fascinat-
ing scale.

Free Trade in Ideas Now
Hurdles Tariff Walls
Offices have now been opened in
New York by Amerika-Interessen,
Inc., organized as the American unit
of A. G. Fuel' Amerika-Interessen,
operating also in Berlin, Paris and
London.
How the work of this corporation
helps manufacturers in this country
to surmount the' tariff barriers which
gridiron the world is explained in
the following statement by Botho
Lilienthal, president of the Corpora-
tion.
"Our method of operation is to
make available to the manufacturers
of one country, devices, processes
and patents, that have been proven
successful in other countries. For
manufacture rs who wish to augment
their incomes by obtaining business
abroad, but cannot do so by ex-
ports, we negotiate agreements cov-
ering production and marketing
rights. This is done by issuing li-
censes on a royalty basis or by the
outright sale of the manufacturing
and marketing rights for the coun-
try involved. In other words, we are
endeavoring to replace the export
of manufactured goods to some ex-
tent by bringing the inventive
achievements, the engineering skill
and manufacturing experience from
one nation to the other. And for-
tunately, there are no tariff bar-
riers against such import and export
of ideas.
"Not only that, b)1t this mode of
international trade helps the unem-
ployment situation of the country
into which we introduce new ideas,
because it often opens new lines of
manufacturing in such country and
is also of benefit to the country
from which we export, because of
WORLD
the financial results strengthening
the gold reserves in this country.
"This work is already under way.
A number of German inventions
have been satisfactorily placed in
England, and English developments
are now being brought to the favor-
able attention of German industries.
Similiar negotiations are under way
between Berlin and Par is. Eventual-
ly it is our · plan to extend this ex-
change of ideas to cover the advan-
tageous placement of the p r oducts
of an countries that are now exper-
iencing difficulty in export trade.
"In order to start our American
Company, OUr engineers have select-
ed from over 1,000 offerings, about
100 devices that seem suitable for
immediate exploitation in this coun-
try. These are in many fields and in-
clude such widely different lines as'
machine tools and appliances, elec-
trical dev)ces, tem)~erature indica-
tors and recorders, optical instru-
ments, advertising displays, air con-
ditioning equipment, welding pro-
cesses, steel house construction, and
household utensils. These are but a
beginning. Additional products and
ideas will continuously be brought
he r e from European countries and I
hope to take many American devel-
opments successfully to Europe."

American Legion, Blackstone Post,

ators violated their agreeme nt, ac-
cording to a published statement,
and that the post will not continue
its sponsorship of the mint machines
in Fort Worth.
The post quit, according to Com-
mander Page, because operators v io-
lated agreements they had made with
the, post, and because of a recen t
court decision.
All saVe one of the six operators
with which the post had contracts
operated machines less' than five

stead of checks and failed to keep
them filled with mints, Page de-
clared.
"It is with regret that the post dis-
continues such spon sorship becau se
its charity program mapped out for
the coming winter is very heavy, and
othe r sources of revenue will later
be sought to replace this loss."
