GREATEST PROBLEMS PRESENT.

ing Commerce.

Philadelphia, July 4.-"Today the
greatest foreign problems and re-
sponsibilities of the United States
government are in the twenty Latin
American republics lying to the south
of u.s." declared John Barrett, d.
rector of the International Bureau of
American Republics, in addressing a
notable gathering in Independence
Hall in this city today.
"Seventy-five per cent of the time
and energy of the state department is
consumed in the consideration of its
Latin-American problems" he added.
1T is therefore not true as occasion.
| ally intimated, that the United States
government Is neglectful or unappre-
ciatiye of its sister American govern
ments."
Mr.. Barrett secuted the idea that
Latin-America, taken as whole,
was land of revolutions.
Despite the fact that the center
OF the stage has been occupied for a
considerable period by one country
in Central America, two-thirds of the
entire area and population of Latin
America have known no civil war
worthy Of the name of revolution
during the last decade and a half and
today four of the FIVE Central Ameri
can countries are peaceful and enter
ing upon new era of prosperity and
progress" he said. Il venture to
predict that when the present strife
in Nicaragua is once concluded-an
! believe that much desired day is
not far distant-there will follow a
period of material development in
that resourceful, though disturbed,
country, which will crafty its numer.
Gus well wishers. The sentiment also
in favor of the formation Of one

Giving Secretary Knox much
credit for the negotiations which re.

action had established a precedent
throughout the world for the concert
of nations in the cause of interna-
tonal peace.
The attention that had been given
to Latin-America, he said, had been
justified by the commercial develop

ADMINISTRATION Of NEW RAIL
ROAD LAW NOT TO BE
ARBITRARY.
Conference Between President and
Chairman of Commerce Com
r1ission--LaW Not
Club.

Beverly, Mass. July President
Taft had long talk with Chairman
Knapp, of the Interstate Comm cree
Commission, regarding the admins,
traton of the new railroad rate law.
At the conclusion of the interview it
was made plain that the added ar.
thorlty given to the commission by
the new statute is not to be used ar,
btFarlly or for the purpose of hon
dering the railroads in the conduct al
their legitimate business. The pow.
er to suspend new rates, probably
the most direct weapon placed in the
hands of the commission is to be
used only in exceptional cases.
Chairman Knapp told the presi
dent that the commission already had
refused an application under the new
law for suspension of increased
rates on horse vehicles and automo
biles. He said that there was no
thing on the face of things to show
that the new rates were unjust OF
unreasonable.
Commission viii Act Speedily. h..
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion will not attempt to fix definite
ates for the railroads, and the powe-
ii a suspension will be applied only
o rates when preliminary hearing
gives indication that they are excess
sive. In all such contested cases.
he president was informed, the com
miss ION will endeavor to arrive at
he facts at the earliest possible mo-
ment, and it is not believed that in
any case will 1t be necessary to avail
itself of the full limit of eleven
months allowed under the law.
Law Not Intended as Club.
1t can be authoritively stated that
It was never intended that the new
law should he club or that should
be the means of profit taking by
bears in the market. The cdnmiss-
ion VIII not run amuck' and will do
nothing to ieopardize the interests of
investors. There mas been talk of a
possible fright among European in
vestors and the embarrassing results
that might come from throwing over
stocks at crop-moving time. But the
President sees nothing in the situa-
ton to warrant any sucn views.
The new law is being tried out.
The president feels that it is in the
hands of conservative body of men.
1t always has been the aim of the
president to make the commission,
with its quasiiuitcial functions, a
conservative body President Taft,
above all, is anxious that this char
acter of the commission shall be
maintained. 1t was at his request
that Chairman Knapp came to Bever-
ly today. Mr. Knapp left for Wash
ington tonight.

laundry company before him, and he,
too, left the city under cloud. with
alleged shortages in his accounts. But
the laundry company management. out
of sympathy for the elder Niver's family.
refused to prosecute him and offered
his position to his son in order that
the family might not lose the income
from the work. The son held the po-
sition but a few days when he disap-
peared. and it was found that he, too.
was delinquent in his accounts.
Today the police received a message
