THINKS future OF ANDES
GREAT TOURIST CENTER
DR.. Bailey Willis Believes Country
Compares Favorably to

Lectures Before Members of National
Geographic Society at New

DR.. Bailey Willis. who was consult
ing geologist to the minister of public
works of Argentina in 19l1-13, deliv-
cred a lecture on Argentina and Chile
last night before members of the Ma
tional Geographic Society at the New
Masonic Temple, in which he said that
the Andes are destined to become one
of the great tourist centers of the new
world, and one worthy to take the
place of Europe's present war-bound
Switzerland.
This rarely beautiful country DIR.

Buenos Aires the lecturer spoke of
as one of the few Spanish attempts to
establish a permanent colony in the
newly discovered hemisphere rather
than the establishment of a temporary
base from which to sap the lands re-
sources with the greatest possible ex
pedltion. The colonists who founded
Buenos Aires, now Argentina's capital,
the earnest purpose of founding new
homes. Their course was looked upon
with little favor by the government in
the motherland. and for hundred
years trade was diverted around the
city to other Spanish ports by drastic
laws.

Buenos Aires today is one of the

said, and it is one of the new world S

Mississippi, which flows past the cap
itaI, is a commercial artery of an i'm
portance relatively as great as the
North American river. DIR. Willis told
his hearers that the Argentines have
expended much money in works to
make their river serviceable to navi-
cation.
The lecturer said that Argentina has
peculiar demarkation of problems
into those of the north and those of
the south, much the same as is the
case in the United States, except that
the relative location of these divisions
south of the equator, is just turned
around - Argentina's north Is conserva-
tive and advocates states rights, while
her southern division is progressive

able civic agency is one which nope
you will earnestly consider.
Maj. kutZ reiterated the suggestion
which he made recently before the
federation that the various cltlZenS
associations begin at once to stratshten
out their tangled boundary lines. He
told the Rhode Island avenue residents
last night that the lines of their asso-
citation conflict with those of the North

in the past, and look for them to do
