South Americas republics today
are sitting over just such another
powder magazine as the one which ex-
ploded two years ago in Europe. In
many ways The situation recalls the
situation, existing in Europe just, a
few years before the outbreak of the
present struggle. The recent hint OF
war between Venezuela and Peru and
Columbia and Ecuador brought South
America to sharp attention. They
might easily do what the Balkan
nixup did to Europe.
There is the same feeling that a
widespread clash cannot be prevent
ed, the same conflict of interest, same
warning, same preparations, same
grooming under the weight Of these
preparations and the same undercur-
rent Of international ill-feeling.
If and when war comes the two
principal beligerents probably will be
Argentina and Chile.
-. Boundary Disputes
Not a country in South America
lacks a boundary dispute, with some
other country. Each is a little Al
sace-LOrraine.
Chile and Argentina had nasty
dispute of the kind in 1898. 1t
reached the point of mutual mobiliz-
alton. England interfered and ar
bitrated. Argentina got large area
CT land in Southern Patagonia which
Chile claimed should have gone to the
latter. This has ranked ever since:
Chilli is very poor. If he could take
by force of arms, that land, she might
get another portion as indemnity. It
would give her all of South America
along her present Eastern boundary
as far South as the latitude of the
Chubuk River, which is about 1000
miles North of Cape Horn, and thence
to the southwark, the whole contin-
