Senor Louis Carlo. the newly appointed
minister from Ecuador. gives further tes-
timOny Of the increased kindly feelings
between the United States and his coun-
try in an interview he granted yesterday.
he voices the sentiments Of the people
Of his country IN regard TO the recent
visit OF Secretary Root and contradicts
what he considers the prevailing opinion
IN this country concerning the reyolu-
tons in Ecuador.
That the little South American republic
is a barren field for enterprise. Senor Car
DO emphaticaIly denies and considers that
there are great opportunities for young
men OF this country in the vast mineral
anG engineering industries that await
them. Senor Carlo, after he had spoken
Of the existing entente cordiale" between
the two nations, said:
South America to-day offers more al
Turing opportunities to young men than
any other region in the world This
