In Antofogasta, the largest exporting point

of the war caused breach in the Cosmopoll-

are hundreds of Germans in the town who are
unable to return to the fatherland, whose sala-

OF the nitrate exported last year II per cent

was produced by American firms. There has
been no Europeai ship in Valparaiso harbor for
two months. All of these apparently calamitous
facts point the moral of my tale-thst South
America must get into closer touch with North
America. What is true Of AntofogGsta is equally
true Of the other nitrate towns, and true in
