some Latin-American countries, there is no question whatever that it now looks as if events would inevitably cause all of them to align them- selves with the United States and it's European allies and even take such steps as will be equal to a declara- tion of war.
 The preponderating public senti- ment everywhere in Latin-America is undoubtedly pro-American and al ly The governments remaining neu- tral cannot be described as being in any way under German influence. It may be that it would be far better for the eventual best interests of the United States, Great Britain, France and Italy if they would remain neu- tral.
 Certain mighty. and irresistible, but almost intangible forces and influenc- es of both sentimental and economic character towards a break with Ger many are however powerfully at work in America.
 The tide of Pan-Americanism is un- doubtedly rising with new power and a new opportunity to save the world civilization, and at this hour it looks as if the flood would carry all America with it."

Prediction Is Made by John Barrett that Great Upheaval

FORCES ARE AT WORK
Mighty Break with the Germans Inevitable Says Well Known
 Authority.

BALTIMORE, June 12.-John Bar rett, Director General of the Pan American Union, in speech here before liberty loan mass meeting, predicted that within year all the Americans will be fighting together against Germany.
 ''If Brazil enters the conflict, as l it seems eminent" he said, two thirds of the entire population and five eights of the total area of the Western Hemisphere will be at war with the common enemy. Can the remaining one-third of the population and three-eights of area stand against the psychological, sympathetic and economic appeal of their sister peo- i pies and countries having similar in terests. similar institutions, similar governments and similar destiny. | That the whole Western Hemis- phere will be directly engaged in the war before another year passes is now not only possible but very probable. Speaking unofficially, for no one can speak today in this crisis for all America, but passing conclusions on the consistent attitude of Latin-American statesmen, it can be said, that despite the justifiable and even praiseworthy neutrality of

even we'll into the wonderfully green countryside and along the cliffs, which remind the seamen of the pal isades along the Hudson anchorage, one may any afternoon find groups of British and American sailors drink ing tea and swapping yarns in true seamanly fashion.
 The American quickly acclimates himself to the afternoon tea habit, and finds it an amiable and satis- factory substitute for other things. with plenty of opportunity for con fidential chats with his new allies on a thousand and one subjects that his active mind has been turning over since his arrival here.
 There are other places where one may always find groups of blue uni formed Americans. One is the local cemetery. in a wood atop the cliffs, where are buried many victims of German submarines. whose graves are kept green by the visitors.

 Americans Win British Folk
 The people of the towns have ta ken the American sailor. and his strangely spendthrift ways right in to their hearts. The American sailor seems always to have money, which IS not so strange when it is consid- cred that his rate or pay is consider ably higher than that of the British tar
 The American gets dollar every time We get shilling is a com mon expression among the British seamen
 One of the American sailors favor ite ways of showing his opulence is his habit of always travelling first class on the railroad which takes him from the village up to the city. trip of a few miles, The extra cost is only few pence, but the un- heard of idea of a common sailor travelling first class strikes the popu- lace as startling and audacious maneuver worthy the best traditions or American extravagance. Local tradesmen who expected to find the visitor an easy mark soon learn their mistake for he is seldom fooled twice. and quickly learns to demand value for his money.
 Tea time in the village now has an American flavor. In all the little inns and shops and farther afield.
