Port of Spain, Trinidad, British West
Indies, January 21.-(Via Haytien Cable)-
The arrivals today from Venezuela con-
firm the reports Of the existence of
critical condition of affairs in that Re-
public. A former Venezuelan Minister as
serts that the politicians at Caracas are
making a determined raid on the Bermu-
dez Asphalt Company. He adds that they
tried it before on modest scale, squeeZ-
ing 100000 out of the company. when
United States Minister Loomis protested
and stopped further action of this de-
scription. The Government the Minister
also says, listened to reason then, but
has now lost its head through greed, and
offers to restore the company's property
for a million dollars. although it is said
to have been illegally taken by dicta-
torial decree. In addition, the assertion
is again made that if foreign governments
permit the action of the Venezuelan au-
thorities to pass without some protest all
foreign investors will be driven from
South America. for the latter claim, they
are always being illegally plundered. In
this connection the assertion is made
that no former Venezuelan Government
