While Spain has kept out of the war
and while neutrality has been profta-
BILE, nevertheless the hostilities have
caused some hardships on the popula-
tion just as in other neutral countries.
Food prices have scared and some in
dustries have suffered. though others
profited. Reports from American con-
suls to the State Department have indi-
Gated that the prices of many articles
used by the working classes have been
put beyond their reach. In some cases
they have doubled and in others tre-

been the consequence of the high
prices.

and will offer inducements that will be
certain to command respectful con-
sideration.
Internal development is looked upon
by Spanish statesmen as the economic
solution of many pressing problems. 1t
is to be the forerunner of two lines
of overseas development One is in
creased trade with South America. The
other is closer commercial relations
with the United States.
South America, notwithstanding that
most of it originally was a Spanish
colony and the connection with the
mother country has been maintained
since the colonies became independent,
never has been fully exploited by
Spain as a commercial field.
Now that all the world is looking to
South America for trade expansion,
Spain also is beginning to awaken to
advantage of language. of customs and
of kindred people. Every South Amer
lean country continues to receive Span
ish immigrants, although the bulk of
them settle on the east coast, southern

Spanish immigration into these coun-
tries has been unchecked. while the

Smoot is a sensible lawmaker.
Forty thousand of the speeches were

that great number will hardly be
enough. Suffering male stomachs, it
might almost be said, are taking their
own census. Enfeebled pocketbooks
are also mingled in the mathematics of
the situation.
In a word. Senator Smoot appears to
have hit on subject that had long
been struggling to get out of the
hearts of the people and into their
voices. He blew blast upon his trum-
pet and from every quarter armies of
recruits came streaming to his stand
ard.
Usually. if he has half chance. Reed
Smoot is a tariff specialist. When the
mighty Aldrich was In the Senate, Reed
Smoot was his lieutenant. Aldrich

his presence.

dream. that. If ever realized, will add
markedly to Spain's trade advantages
in South America. This is the plan
for what is known as the Paris -Agadir
\ railway for shortening travel between
western Europe and South America
by ten to twelve days
This project contemplates the re-
building of the Spanish railways from
the French border. so as to enable fast
railway transit to be made across Span
ish territory to Algeciras Thence
trains will be ferried across to Ceuta.
on the coast of Morocco. from which
point a railway would be built to Aga
dir. and the fast steamship lines would
proceed by way of Teneriffe to Rio de
Janeiro and Buenos Aires
The passage between Algeciras and
sixteen miles. A ferry service could
easily be maintained. and while Mo-
rocco is a French protectorate, Spain
would meet no obstacles of an interna-
tional character and would have the
chief benefit of the accelerated rail and
steamship service.
Teneriffe, which is an ocean way sta
ton for European vessels in the South
American service. would be the first
stop on the steamship route. Most or
them have coaling stations there. The
distance from Agadir to Teneriffe is
only about $50 miles. while from South
ampton or Hamburg or Genoa ii is more
than 1000 miles. So the initial advantage
of a steamship service of this kind would
be a big saving in coal bills.
ST. Vincent is the next ocean stop. 1t
is about $50 miles from Teneriffe From
there the lines diverge to Para and ports
on the north coast of South America and
to Pernambuco and the east coast ports.
The people who have faith in the project
of the accelerated railway service are very
confident that Teneriffe and St. Vincent
would acquire increased Importance in
also accelerating the steamship service.

ambitions which preceded the French pro-
tectorate over Morocco it was declared
