ment would be able to impress upon
the South American states the value
of strict neutrality
The two South American countries
are charged with having permitted
wireless messages to go to German
ships and for allowing the German
fleet to coal in their territory.
It was pointed out at the British
embassy that notes communicated to
the American government were mere
ly in accord with the usual custom of
Great Britain in informing the United
States Of her relations with South
American countries.
1t is not believed. however, that the
United States will take action unless
an open rupture develops between the
South American countries and the al
lied powers. The United States hith-
erto refrained from becoming involved
in alleged violations Of neutrality in
Mexico and elsewhere south Of the
Rio Grande.

A letter from the Albuquerque com
mercial club asking that the CONNER
cial club join in a movement to Or
ganize a New Mexico Develoment
board, was readas. The purpose Of the
proposed organization is to enable all
the communities Of the state to as
sist in finding locations for prospec-
tive settlers and investors. Each
community's commercial Organization
lis to be member and is to keep the
central organization informed as to
the possibilities for prospective invest
ors and settlers in its part Of the

representative to the organization
meeting Of the proposed board, but
would not be bound to any Of the pol
icies adopted except by a vote Of the

Highway Matters
F. o. Blood called attention to the
fact that Ration is endeavoring to send
tourists around by way of Taos and
Cimarron instead Of through Las We
gas. This in spite Of the fact that the
main highway runs through this place,
while the other route is almost impas-
sable in places. The road committee
Of the club, of which R. ]. Taupert
of the county road commission is
chairman, was instructed to investi-
gate the matter and show Ration the
error Of her way if reports of her
faction are confirmed.

hiring an advertising expert for the
office of secretary. In opposition to
such a procedure it was stated that
the Commercial club, during the past
year. has done the most effective work
of it's career with the board Of direc-
TORS in full charge of the advertising
campaign, a secretary being hired for
nominal sum to look after the col
lections and correspondence. Wheth-
er the club would be benefited by the
employing of an advertising expert
whose salary would use some consid-
erable part of the funds that might
be used in an advertising campaign
supervised by the directors, is some
thing that must be decided before the
club makes any material changes in
it's secretaryship according to the
statement Of some of the members.
The Mora Road
Judge David J. Leahy Of the special
committee appointed recently to con-
suit with the commissioners and road
board OF Mora county relative to the
Importance of building road from
Mora to the Santa Barbara Tie and
Pole camp, reported that Mora county
officials and the Mora commercial club
have expressed themselves in favor
of the project The Mora county com
lmissioners will vote upon the matter
at their next meeting. 1t is likely
that Las Vegas will be called upon
to assist in paying for the highway.
which will be of benefit to Mora, Wat
rous and Las Vegas by drawing an
immense amount of business this way.
The Mora county commissioners al
ready have decided to build a road
from Mora to Holman, via the Luna
canyon. naA connecting highway be-
tween Holman and the tie camp now
is necessary. The directors said they
would endorse the proposition hearti-
lily and would assist in raising what
money is needed.

A few words in regard to the gen
eral situation may be in place The
first Napoleon a hundred years ago
made the prediction that In a hun
dred years Europe would be either
republican or 'tCossack. The hun
dred years are nearly over and his
prediction might become true. The
strongest bulwark against Russia,
Germany, is being attacked now. If
Germany goes under, Russia will
rule Europe. The nations to the
north of Germany will be the first
ones to suffer. Norwegians and
Swedes know what fate is awaiting
them-the fate of Finland. Can
there be a question on which side
the sympathies of this nation should
be in this struggle? If you are in
doubt, ask one of the czar's former
subjects in this country. They are
the people who are greeting the coast
of this country on their knees and
with tears in their eyes. A million
of them are praying in the United
States for the success of the Ger
