Peru's claim to the ownership Of the
provinces of Tacna and africa.

Peru's claim to the ownership Of the
provinces of Tacna and africa.
President Leguia, In receiving q
number Of Peruvians who had been
obliged to leave Tacna owing to the
hostile attitude Of the Chilians. re-
marked that 1t behooved them to sup
port the government in its efforts to
the country in strong defensive po-
sition. Chill was not mentioned but
Chileans interpreted the remarks as a
menace and policy Of naval expan-
sion Immediately entered upon by
Chill.
A contract was placed with British
firm for a $4,000 ton dreadnought and
the government strongly was urged by
the militant element to place a SINH
lar contract in the United States. Or
ders were given an American firm
for several submarines.
Tacna formerly was the undisputed
possession of Peru and that country
never has admitted the legality of
Chili's domination over the province.
Many Peruvians continue to reside in
Tacna and africa and they naturally
resented Chilean assertion of authOri.
ty.
The recent visit to this country Of
Admiral Goni, head of the Chilean ma
val commission, is understood to have
greatly strengthened the Chilean sem
timent in favor Of the construction of
warships in the United States as Ad-
miral Goni deeply was impressed by
the capacity and ability Of the Amer
ican shipbuilders.
It has been known here for some
time that the British government was
trying to unload the Triumph and
Swiftsure as these vessels were re-
garded as overarmed in the sense
that the guns were too big for the
ships. They were taken over by the
British government when internation-
al complications were threatening,
principally to prevent them from fall
ing into the hands Of another Euro
pean power, and 1t Is not doubted that
they might be acquired easily by Chill
for which government they were being
constructed in British shipyards when
the British government bought them.
Chill, with about 100000 popula-
ton, has an active army of 1923 Of
ficers and men. With military service
compulsory Chili's war strength Is es-
timated at 10000. The Chilean navy
has more than thirty vessels with a
personnel of 6.084 officers and men.
Peru, while having larger popu-
lation than Chill. it being estimated
at 4,500. 900, has a smaller army. On
peace footing 1t numbers little more
than 1000 officers and men, but every
citizen is liable to military service from
his nineteenth to fiftieth year. Peru's
navy consists Of fourteen vessels.
