Between the United States
and All Latin-America
Says Knox.


PARMA, Feb. 2s-seeretary Of
State P. C. Knox, who has Just ar
rived on the Isthumus, made ii
Panama the first Of his public adj
dresses on the trip that viii take
him, before his return to Washing
ton, to all capitals Of Central Amer
lea, and to Northern South America
and the West Indies.
This speech, while delivered be.
fore the president of Panama, Senior
Pablo Arosemena, was in reality adj
dressed to all the countries the Sec
rotary expects to visit. and included
an explanation Of the attitude Of the
United States towards South and
Central America. particularly. in
connection with the building of the
Panama canal Mr.. Knox said that
the president Of the United States
believed that the completion of the
canal should mark the beginning OF
closer relations between the United
States and all LatinsAmerica; that
the purpose of the United States
toward all the American republics
was to live in amity and essential
harmony; and that the United
States desired more peace, more
prosperity, more happiness and
more security in their national lives.
He declared the United States
craved neither sovereignty nor ter.
ritory in LatingAmerica, and that
there was much in common between
the older and the younger repuo,
lies.
Mr.. Knox's address follows:
ut is an honor and sincere
pleasure, Mr.. President, to be you,
guest and the recipient of the cor
! dial welcome of Panama. 1t is a
j privilege to. stand upon the threshold
Of the contamination of the greatest
work done by man in or for the
world and to feel that one is not a
stranger upon the soil dedicated
from the creation to be the scene Of
the supreme effort for human ad,
vancement when mans require
ments demanded it and mans genius
should be equal to the task.
when the necessities of the
worlds first civilization could be nc
longer supplied and its aspirations
no longer satisfied, in it's oriental
abode 1t was natural that the pic.
neers of those days should make
their first explorations by following
the path of the life-gving sun in its
daily journeys towards the West.
1.-The fruits of their ,drst tfmid
ventures emboldened them to more
ambitious endeavor and the ever in
creasing rewards, resulting from
the discovery Of continents and seas,
beckoned them on until halted here
by another world they seemed to
have fulfilled their mission of COM
panion discoveries with the sun
which passed on in solitude towards
and into the unknown.
at was not until 1913 when Bal.
boa stood silent upon a peake in
Darien' and gazed upon the waters
of the Pacific that it was evident
that the hand that gave the seas and
formed the land left it possible to
divide the hemisphere which halted
western progress, even as Moses had
divided the Red Sea that the chill

tors were unski1Ied for the gigantic

navigators began.
After many yicissitudes ana fall
ures the completion Of the stupend-
ous work devolved upon the people
Of the United States who are thust
thrown into relations with ,the4
countries Of the gsthmian region
which, with our geographical pro-
pinquify, make a broader under
standing and a more sympathetic re-
ctproeal interest between us an es-
sential basis for the realization OF
the splendid possibilities which.
seems to have been decreed from the
beginning Of time.
THE president of the United
States believes that the early COM
Epletlon of the Panama canal should
mark the beginning Of closer reIa-
tons to all Latin america and espe-
clally to the Caribbean llttoral, as
well as the relations of these coun-
tries to each other, and, impelled

spicious moment through better ac-

while it is entirely clear to those
who have fairly and intelligently

neither sovereignty nor territory, yet
it is true that our motives towards

Blackfoot, Nov. 1.-The great gond
resulting from the large amount of ef-
fective legislation secured in the ma
