AIMS TO BE FRIENDLY
CASTRO DESIRES TO AVOID A
CLASH WITH THIS COUNTRY

Dispatches received here from Venezuela,
through State Department channels. indi-
cate a strong desire on the part OF Presi-
dent Castro to secure a better understand
ing and more friendly relations with the
Washington government. 1t appears, on
the other hand. however, that his political
enemies are doing their utmost to rupture
these relations already subjected to Sc
we're strain because of the alleged refusal
of the Venezuelan govrnment to reopen the
asphalt dispute. cabal has been estab-
lished at Wilemstad. it is said. the ayowed
purpose of which Is to induce the United
States to take sides with France in It's
threatened attack upon Venezuelan ports
in order to encompass the political over
throw of Castro.
Will Grant Concessions.
AS an evidence of President Castro's de-
sire to be on a more friendly footing with
the United States 1t is reported author
ity that he is prepared to grant valuable
concessions to Americans soon as the
present friction has been removed. A con-
cession for a railroad line from Caracas TO
Carenero is promised 10 Gen. S. S. Pear
son a concession for the exclusive manu-
feature of cement to Messrs. w. II. Clay
ton and F. L. Joannini of this city, and
concession for the exploitation of the GU
anoca asphalt lake will probably be given
to Messrs. Eastland and Archibald.
A correspondent at Caracas writes that
Castro no longer shows hostility TO Amer
leans and that the business outlook In the
Venezuelan capital Is brighter than 1t has
been for some time. 1t is pointed out In
this connection that President Castro, who
is one of the shrewGest statesmen of the
day. realizes that the commercial as well
as the political future of Venezuela depends
to a great extent upon the friendship and
assistance of the United States, and he is
now prepared to meet the Washington gov
eminent more than half way in an endeavor
to secure a settlement of the recent diner
ences between the two governments.
Charge of Venezuelan Consulates.
One of President Castro's oyertures in
that direction was his application to the
United States 10 take charge of Venezuelan
consulates in France, pending settlement
of the issues with that country. AS has
been stated in The Star. the Washington
government readily accepted the charge.
and is doing for Venezuela in France ex-
actly what she is doing for France in Ven-
ezuela.
Mr. Jusserand the French ambassador,
called upon Secretary Root yesterday and
had a talk with reference to the French
consuiates in Venezuela. In reply to an
inquiry from the French ambassador Mr..
Root stated that 1t was only contemplated
that this government would act as cuSfo-
dian for the archives of the French CONSUL
ates in Venezuela, and not conduct the bust-
ness of the cOnsulates.

! thc Springtield Repubilean.

From the Springfield Republican.
There Is a controversy IN England between
the doctors and the opticians who have
been increasing their scientific equipment
and prescribing at much lower price than
the oculists. while general practitioners as
a rule know little about optics and the
prescription of glasses. 1t Is curious
thing that there has been no organized cru
sade by the profession against allowing
the public to select its own spectacles from
the exposed stock. as has been the practice
ever since glasses came into use In the sew
enteenth century, though this Is obviously
moro injurious. But now that the opti-
clans have undertaken to prescribe the
lament leaving the public free as before
10 choose It's own speetacles. The opti-
clans have prepared counter bill proyid-
ing for opticians diplomas to be awarded
by central council of the whole trade
