My first trip to Havana was made
eleven years ago and 1 was aHnaEed at
the changes that nave been brought about
In the intervening time. Eleven years ago
the city was simply filthy. Now the city
IS clean and well kept. The Prado is the
principal street and 1t reminds one OF
the boulevards of Paris. 1t Is beautifully
parked, with the street car tracks In the
center and asphalt on each side. The
street car system is one OF the best any
where in the world. The Bank OF Havana
is the finest bank building l have ever
seen. It is built on a magnificent scale
and the bronEes and marble were fur
nished by Tiffany in New York. There are
no flowers about Havana, no song birds,
no snakes and no wild beasts on the
island. I was much interested In visiting
the Provincial Sugar mill, which turns out
1900 barrels OF sugar a day"
Mr.. Brandeis speaks of the scarcity of
American manufactured articles in Cuba
and is at a loss to understand It. He
says that In Europe one Is constantly
seeing American sewing machines, cash
registers and other articles, but in Cube
they are rare, even the foreign automobiles
being much more extensively used than
the American product.
Inc trip 10 havana is very interesting
In that It goes over the new Flagler rail-
road, which runs 100 miles over the ocean.
The road now extends as far as Knights
Key, where one takes an eight-hour boat
to Havana, but the road will soon be ex-
tended another fifty miles to Key West.
The construction is made possible by the
ocean bed, which is very hard and the
water is quite shallow. The railroad is
built to profit by the advantages in
loading and unloading boats after the
completion Of the Panama canal. The
road is said to have cost as much as
100000 a mile IN some places"

Canada Turns Deaf lar to Great
Britain

Ottawa, Ontario. Nov. s. Let Us
be perfectly frank: the commercial
ARRANGEMENTS between Canada anu
the United States must and can only
be the thin end Of the wedge OF POI
IItical union. The negotiations nj
Ottawa represents the most momen-
tous crisis which the Empire has ex-
perienced since the Boar War. Surely
the Canadian statesmen and Cana
dian people can think out some other
means OF meeting the situation than
commercial negotiations with Wash
ington, which not only endanger her
political autonomy but are a grave
menace TO the existence OF the En-
pire."

GOVERNMENT NEEDS FLYERS.
At Least Twenty AerOplanes Are Re-
quired by Signal Office.

Washington, Nov. Twenty aero
planes at least are needed for the
United States government service,
says Gen. James Allen, chief signal
officer of the army, in his annual re-
port, made public tonight.
These aeroplanes should be on
regular practice at different points in
the country throughout the year."
continues General Allen. ''They
should be present in camps OF in
struction for regular troops and or
ganized militia. Twenty aeroplanes
would provide but two for each camp
of instruction. To operate this num-
Der would require at least twenty
specially trained officers as pilots. In
addition to this each machine must
carry at least one observer, which, ex-
perience has taught, will require
much training and actual practice be-
fore the usefulness Of the heavier
than-air machine is attained"
General Allen deprecates the fact
that although the United States was
the first nation officially to recognize
the aeroplane for military purposes,
this government has not kept pace
with the world in the development Of
military aeronautics.
Summed up, the aero equipment Of
the United States army consists of
one small practice dirigible balloon,
one Wright aeroplane and three
small captive balloons, says the
General
The signal corps has only one lieu
tenant and nine enlisted men on duty
in connection with aeronautics and
the chief signal officer says, until the
corps is increased by Congressional
legislation, it will be impossible to
furnish more officers and men for the
manded in airmanship.
General Allen combats the oft-re-
ipeated assertion that the United
! States, owing to its isolated position,
! is not likely to become involved in
war, and that therefore the most
economical procedure in aerial navi-
cation is to wait until other nations
have determined upon the types best
suited to military purposes, thus
shifting the expense of experiment
and development to other nations.
In view of the difficulties which
ships bearing the United States ffag
have in communicating with foreign
ports, General Allen recommends that
the matter Of this country becoming
a party to the international conven-
ton for the control of wireless
telegraphy again be brought before
the Senate. He also recommends
appropriate legislative action looking
to definite Federal control of wire
less telegraphy and telephones.
