MOTOR BOAT OWNERS WARNED
Notified by Government That Regu-
lations Must Be Observed.

A circular OF interest to motor boat
owners recently has been sent out by the
Department Of Commerce and Labor to
the collectors of customs throughout the
country for general distribution. The
circular calls attention to the regulations
for the government of motor boats. under
the law of June ., 1910, which holds
motor craft owners TO strict accounta-
bility for all failures to observe them to
the letter. 1t states that all violations of
section of that act are to be referred
to the United States district attorney
for action, as the department has no au-
thori<y to mitigate or remit penalties or
withdraw prosecution. Lights are re-
ouired only between sunset and sunrise.
No penalty is incurred by a motor boat
being without equipment unless actually
navigated, except in case of anchor lights.
Motor boats of class | are not required TO
carry fog horns and bells.
Circulars referring to the motor boat
regulations are furnished at the custom
house. AS the revenue cutters and Gus
toms inspectors have orders to report any
violation, the motor boat owner must be
careful to fill the requirement or else be
cited before the district attorney.

Work of the Society.

There has never been a time in the
history OF the country when the question
Of our relations with Latin America was
more vital than 1t is today. The near
opening of the Panama canal is bringing
our people and our government face to
face with new problems and new condi-
tons. which, by reason of ancient opin-
ions and preconceptions, they are hardly
prepared to meet. The worlds trade
routes will be changed. and changed per-
manently; trade conditions. both within
and without the United States, will be
modified. New fields of commercial de-
velopment will be opened up and old
ones greatly enlarged. not merely be-
cause of the new facilities, but because
of the great publicity that will be given
to hitherto obscured opportunities. We
need an outlet for our industrial ener-
gies. We will soon need new sources of
food supply, and perhaps in time an out
let for our overflow population. These
things have long been realized by the
leading men OF Latin America, and are
being gradually perceived by the people
of this country.
What do we know of these height boring
countries? What do they know of US?
conceptions of these people, and on the
many of them have had very mistaken
opinions of US. They regard US with much
the same favor as a Kansas farmer does
q cyclone. Even the small number
among them who look to us for their in
dustrial salvation do so with infinite re-
greet. regarding US as an evil, though
necessary one.

Seek Mutual Understanding.

How, then. shall we approach them?
How shall We bring about amicably the
inevitable intermingling of ideals and
civilizations SO antagonistic at present?
Mere commercial relations will do little.
A mutual understanding must be estab-
lished, a knowledge of what each is and
what each feels. so essential to an equt
able basis between nations And only
one thing can bring this about which is
personal contact and association be-
tween the leading men of the various
countries.
Such an ideal has brought the Pan
American Society into being. It's func-
ton is neither political nor commercial
it is purely social. yet social in a large
sense. The society was organized last
February, and already numbers among
its members men Of the highest stand
ing in their respective spheres-bankers,
lawyers. merchants. journalists. diplo-
mats, all active in fostering social reia
tons between North and South Ameri-
cans"
