BY Enrique Coronado,
Director General of the Bureau Of
Information Of the Colombian
Republic.

The magnitude of that disastrous
conflict in which the most enlight.
ened countries Of Europe are involved
to-day must and will affect such re.
publics as Colombia, which are just
developing and whose development
has largely depended on the COM
mercial and financial aid OF the Eu-
ropean countries.
With the European calamity, which
is more of a universal revolution
than an ordinary war, and the re-
sultIng suspension OF commerce with
the belligerent nations. has come the
diminution of the custom house
duties. which Is the largest item in
the budget OF the republic: exporta-
tons have been detained owing TO
the lack Of markets and maritime
mmunIcations, and the credit Of the
dealers at large has been nearly an
initiated, all merchants and export
ers being unable to dispose freely OF
the sums which they have deposited
with the European banks and .irms.
AS a consequence Of the d1mdnu-
ton OF importations the maritime
cities. which mostly exist on, trade
not of a permanent nature. to-day see
their activities paralyzed: the earn
ings OF the railroads are less than
ever, and al the public works which
are being built at present by foreign
firms must necessarily be interrupted
until peace reIgns supreme once more.
The economic and financial situa-
ton of Colombia Is rather good 90
much 40 that II has been ono Of the
a -
to protect their citizens with a mora
forum at present. The total COM
merce OF the country In 1918 was as
much as s62.S51, 500. OF which ss4,-
3lb,S0O was expectations and s2S,-
5S5, 500 lmportations giving a balance
in favor Of the republic of $b,7ss, 900.
Twenty-six per cent. OF the exrortA-
tons we're sent to European coun-
tries, from which 80 per cent. Of the
mportations were taken. the balance
being trade with the United States.
The country IL extraordinarily rich
! in minerals. There is gold found nearly
all over the republic in lodes and
deposits or mixed with other metals.
especially IN the central and western
chains OF mountains in the Andes; sill
yer is found in large quantities In
Antioquia, Caldas and TO the south and
north Of Tolima; iron and copper in
Boyaca, Cundinamarca and Masda-
lena, and there are extensive mines of
platinum in the region OF Choco.
With regard to agricultural under
takings we might mention the cultiva-
ton of the banana in the department
of Magdalena, which gives very prcas.
-
owing to the Improvement In irriga-
ton and 10 the establishment Of new
enterprises on the lands between Santa
Marta and Fundacion.
All the foregoing shows what great
opportunities there are for the United
States to increase its trade with Co

cial relations Of the latter republic

BY Carlos A. Meza,
Secretary OF Salvador, in charge OF
Legation.

Salvador like all other countries Of
the American hemisphere, naturally
suffers the consequences OF the Euro
pean war. which are felt everywhere.
Fortunately Salvador is at present in
tlourishing condition. Il has been
endowed with natural wealth. and,
moreover, Is thickly populated. Ow-
ing to this density OF population and
the tendencies OF the people my coun-
try Is comparatively of an industrious
character. Wherefore the require
ments of the republic are few, and
they can be suhserved by national in
dustries. II is on solid foundations
and has its own resources TO bring
about a permanent financial pros
perity.

Salvador has a great trade with the

merce being with this country, AMI
that is why It Is but natural that it's
trade should increase, and especially
so at the present time owing to the

No one can fail to see that the ef-

good results.

LlsHEs MEMORIAL RECORD
FOR GERMANY

WASHINGTON. June 3-The Ger
man ambassador, Count Won Bern
storfi. today gave out for publication
the memorial record and accom-.
panying affidayits, issued by the Ger
man government as a White Book of
March 25 last, relating to atrocities
committed by Russian troops on Ger
man civilians and German prisoners of
war" The ambassador also an
nounced that copies OF the document
had been delivered to all the neutral
governments. including the govern
ment OF the United States. and that
other copies would be open TO inspec-
ton at the German consulates of New
York. Chicago, Philadelphia and San
Francisco.
The memorial record" summarizes
the acts set forth in the eighty AFT
dayits attached as exhibits, each &C.
cusation being accompanied by ref
erence to the numbered affidavit Civ
ing details of the charge. The mem.
Orial record" says:
THE Russian troops have commit
ted atrocities during the present war
which are incompatible with the laws
Of humanity and the customs of civil
lied nations, and which evidence the
utter barbarism OF their warfare
These atrocities we're directed against
the peaceful inhabitants of the occu-
pied German territory, as well as
against those German soldiers who op.
posed them in lawful combat and who
mad the misfortune OF being taken
prisoner by them.
The adjoining documentary mater
ial shows that these are not isolated
cases of cruelty and deeds of violence,
Tor atrocities OF the most bestial sort
have been committed in so many
places and by so many different divis-
ions OF troops that undoubtedly very
great part OF the Russian army is per
meated by spirit of inhuman savag-
cry. A large number of cases are al
ready well known, but in the supple
ments only such cases are found as
have been incontrovertibly estab-
lished by official testimony. particu.
larly testimony on oath, or by official
report. These cases must be regarded
as being only selection of the innu
merable atrocities actually commit

companies, without closing them OF
taking them over.
The same regulations are to be APP
piled also to partnerships if any OF
the full partners are subjects of enemy
countries, if it is found that the work
of these partnerships is harmful Oh
dangerous to the interests of the
state"
The codifying of these special meas
ures against enemy" companies and
partnerships is presumably done in
an effort to restrict Illicit trade with
Germany and Austria, which has been
going on to certain extent through
Scandinavia since the beginning of
the war.

MCGOWAN NOT RESPONSIBLE

According to word received from
Elko relative to the fatal attempt of
William MCGOWAN to escape from the
penitentiary at Carson recently the
man was not right mentally and could
not have realized the danger he was
mourning in attempting to escape. He
was sentenced from Elko for term
of from one to FIVE years in the peni-
tertiary for stealing a sweater from
the Clifton hotel at that place. He
pleaded guilty to burglary in the Sec
ond degree. In attempting to escape
MCGOWAN was shot and almost in

POLES ARE STARVING
Topeka Mass Meeting to Provide Re
lief Sunday. September 10.

A cable just received by the Rookie
| Teller Foundation from its commits
sioners in Poland states, among other
things:
Conditions in Poland are much
worse than the worst in Belgium or
Northern France, and the population
is now actually starving. The most
urgent need for outside aid is for the
Jewish population"
The distress in Belgium, formerly
unparalleled in the history of human
suffering, called forth the prompt as
sistance of the humane people of the
world Unfortunately that story of
suffering is now surpassed by what has
befallen the unhappy Jews of Poland
and Galicia.
The mass meeting for the benefit of
the war-suffering Jews has been de-
cided to be held on Sunday, Septem-
Der 10, by the committee in charge of
the meeting. The principal address
will be given by Mr.. w. ]. Berkowitz
of Kansas City. Among the other
speakers will be Charles Curtis, United
States senator: Arthur Capper, gov
ernor, and Capt. Joseph G. Waters.
These speakers will describe the ter
rible conditions that now surround the
Jews in Poland and Galicia.
