INTERNATIONAL BUREAU OF
AMERICAN REPUBLICS.

One of the results of the Pan
American Conference at Rio JaneirO
in the summer of 1906 has been a
great increase in the activity and
usefulness of the International Bu-
reau of American Republics. That
Institution, which includes all the
American republics in its member
ship and brings all their represen-
tatives together, is doing a really
valuable work in informing the peo-
pie of the United States about the
other republics and in making the
United States known to them. Its
action is now limited by apprOpria-
tions determined when it was doing
a work on a much smaller scale and
rendering much less valuable service.
l recommend that the contribution
of this government to the expenses
of the bureau be made cOmmensu-
rate with it's increased work.

The two governments have been
uniting their efforts for consider
able time past to aid Central Amer
lea in attaining the degres of peace
and order which have made possible
the prosperity of the northern parts
of the continent. After che peace
between Guatemala, Honduras and
Salvador, celebrated under the cir
cumStances described in my last
message, a new war broke out be-
tween the republics of Nicaragua,
Honduras and Salvador. The effort
to compose this new difficulty has
resulted in the acceptance OF the
joint suggestion OF the presidents of
Mexico and of the United States for
a general peace conference between
all the countries of Central America.
On the 18th day Of September last
protocol was signed between the
representatives of the five Central
American countries accredited to
this government agreeing upon a
conference to be held in the city af
Washington lin order to devise the
means of preserving the good reld-
tions among said republics and
bringing about permanent peace in
those countries The protocol in
cludes the expression of wish that
the presidents of the United States,
and Mexico should appoint repre-
sentatives to lend their good and i'm
partial offices in a purely friendly
way toward the realization of the
objects of the conference. The con-
ference is now in session and will
have our best wishes and, where it
IS practicable, our friendly assist

Chicago. May 20.-The recent ac-
tion of the Burlington in cutting the
rates on transcontinental mail to
meet the competition in service and
time OF the Rock Island, is having
an important bearing on the ques-
tion OF mail compensation generally.
II Is said that the voluntary reduc-
tion made by the Burlington Is being
seriously considered by the postmas-
ter-general. In determining whether
the total compensation received by
the railroads shall be reduced be-
tween s5.OOO,OOO and $4,000. 900
annually.
This fact became apparent, Il Is
stated last Wednesday, when a COM
mittee of prominent railroad men
called on the postmaster-general
with a petition asking him TO re-
scind the order requiring the total
tonnage carried over a mail route to
be divided by seven. instead of six,
In arriving at the average tonnage
carried. Such division as the
postmaster-general Is insisting on
will reduce the mail compensation
nearly II per cent.
The chairman OF the committee
was W. II. Baldwin, assistant 10
President Harris. OF the Burlington
Baldwin was the man who conveyed
TO the former postmaster-general the
proposition OF the Burlington TO cut
It's rates TO meet the Rock Island
competition. The postmaster-gener-
al intlmated that In view OF the vol
untary reduction. Il might be dim
cult for him TO be convinced that the
mail pay could not stand general
cut.
