in order to protect Venezuelan rights. At
the FIRST opportunity they slap us in the
face.
The rupture of friendship is due to a
dispute over the ownership of certain
asphalt property in the Laguayre region
of Venezuela. One American syndicate,
the New York and Bermudez Company,
paid $4,000 for claim. After the Ven
ezuelan government had accepted this,
there was a change of administration.
Gen. Castro coming to the presidency,
found the treasury depleted. He did not
hesitate, for q consideration, to recognize
the claim of the rival syndicate, the War
QuinlanS Sullivan combination. Sub
sequently the New York Bermudez Com
pany was informed that upon the pay
ment of 100000 it could have the claims
for which it had previously paid $4,000
without deriving any benefit. The Amer
lean government took no part in the CON
troversy, but notified Venezuela that the

the Venezuelans that our government
was aware of what was going on and was
not indifferent. The South Americans
showed their resentment of this move
by refusing to admit consular supplies
free of duty. Like action was taken by
our government respecting the entrance
of Venezuelan consular supplies into this
country. There have been other manifes-
tations of an unfriendly spirit, and the
recall of Minister LOOMS was the nat
ural outcome. 1t is not to be supposed
that there will be a permanent rupture of
diplomatic relations. The United States
government cannot afford to go to war
over this matter. 1t would be like big
mastiff attacking a mongrel cur. But
something has to be done to make the
Venezuelans understand that they must
maintain a more respectful attitude to-
ward the United States.
