Atlantic city, N. j., july 10.-What

men forget themselves and try to serve

of all men to work for the common

Argentine Novelist
Warns America.

New York. July 10.-Manuel Ugarto.
the Argentine Republics greatest nov
elist and poet, is in New York for a
series of lectures at Columbia Uniyer-
sity. In his first lecture he told his au-
dience some very blunt facts about the
attitude of his country and its South
American neighhors toward the Unit
ed States. He denounced the Nicara-
guam loan as the most monstrons and
the most shocking negotiation that has
ever been attempted in the world and
he declared that the Panama canal
rests upon a base of disloyalty.'
1.-The mere fact" he began. that |
am saying these things here in New
York City, indicates that have conf
denee and faith in the fundamental
honor of this admirable nation, which,
busted in its own productive and be-
nificent labor, is doubtless ignorant OF
the use that is being made of it's
strength in neighboring territories and
is unaware that the most acrid antip-
athy is being reared against ii in the
rest of the New World. A Journey /
have just made through all Latin
America convinces me that the blind
rastlessness and disqpietude that be-
sets our people is organizing and
crystahzing into an alert and vigorous
movement of protest against the inn
perialism of the United States"
After discussing the Nicaraguan
loan and the Panama canal, he said:
."The Monroe doctrine, at first a
safeguard for ell America, has been
converted into an instrument of ty-
ranny and does not now mean as be-
fore that no country shall have colo
MES in America but rather signifies
that Iatin-Ameriean is our own colo
NY Whey should one be amazed.
therefore, If we of Latin America turn
our eyes toward Germany or Japan
seekingStae counterpoise and equilibri-
um that the United States fails to ac-
cord uspn
In conclusion the speaker spoke of
the constant revolution in the Latin
American countries.
You reproach us for these revolu-
tons he said. "but it is your own ma
ton that has opened in New York and
New Orleans, species of stock ex-
change for dealing in revolutions,
where disorder and the hunger and
ruin of many Spanish American
country are speculated in"
