THE relations between this
Government and Chill, it is
emphatically asserted, has now
reached a condition where a
peaceful solution of the ques-
tion ut issue is no longer a pos
siblility, The only outcome
of the situation now must be
war. 1t is clear Chill would
not apologize. President Montt
would not dare to apologize to
this country in the present
state of feeling in Chill. To
make any move in the direction
of yielding to the demands of
the United States would at once
preticipate a fresh revolution
which would cost Montt his job
as president and probably his
life. II this country would
wait for an apology a few
months or years until the super
heated Chileans hae had time
to cool off and get a new idea
in their audled heads, then
Montt might be able to do some
thing to smooth down the ruff
fled feathers of the American
eagle. But for the present,
Montt could only keep up his
glare of defiance at us. If he
smiled, the Chilean wild cats
would be at his throat.
