The transfer of Admiral Walkers squadron
Of evolution from the Mediterranean to the
Atlantic Coast Of South America is 10 Ire COM
mendcd ON National grounds. The Pan
American Conference has impaired powerful
impulse to continental policy. The representa-
tiyes Of the various American republics have
united in recommending the adoption OF numcr-
Gus measures calculated TO bring the countries
into closer and more harmonious relations with
one another. The practical results OF the Con
ference will largely depend upon the vigor and
with which the United states takes
the initiative in acting upon these recommends
tons and in cutivaiing more cordial relations
with IFS Southern ncighbOrS The squadron
of evolution has attracted attention in the
Mediterranean and served the purpose OF re-
minding maritime Europe that the United
states. after a prOtracted period OF inacion, has
entered upon new era of naval progress
worthy Of the old-timc reputation OF its fleets
and commercial marine. In the South At
lantic it can do this and something more. The
presence of 50 large a squadron i'll the harborS
of Bahia, Rio and the Plate will be display
of naval resources in waters whore the Ameri-
can flag is seldom seen. 1t will not only be
timely and graceful compliment TO Brazil,

il will also impress them with sense OF the
importance Of the great Nation which heads
the continental movement.

II is notorious that many railway employees are

by the failure Of the companies to adopt april

Of safety for these hard-workcd and not-too-wcll-
