AMERICAN-LATIN LEAGUk
Organized in California to Pro-
mote Amicable and Friendly
Relations Between the United
States and Southern Repub-
lies.

in Santa Cruz county was noted
in these columns yesterday, fav-
ored The Oasis with an inter-
view upon a great topic, that is
near the heart of the gentle
man, toward which he is con-
tributing a deal of thought and
energy, and in which he is ac-
complishing results already
cementing friendly relations be-
tween the people of the United
States and those of the Latin
American republics lying south
of this country, all the way be-
tween the Rio Grande and Cape
Horn.
Parenthetically it is correct
to state that Mr.. del Vale is a
scion of one of-the old families
of Southern California, the adj
vent of which in California
dates away back into the early
history of the spanish con-
quest. Born and reared in Cali
fornia, and educated there,
practicing law many years, he is
a thorough American; but by
blood and ancestry a Latin;
combining in his personality the
attributes of both races, with q
deep seated knowledge of the
inner consciousness-the psy-
chology of each. Few, if any,
are so well fitted to understand
the mental makeup and view
point of each race, and none
better qualified to discover and
define that common ground on
which both may stand forever
in peace and amity.
To bring together the two
races, to raise in the scale of
civilization, liberty and individ
uality the great mass of the
Latin race in America, have
been problems that have given
Mr.. del Vale much food for
thought through many years,
In the great demand for COM
mon labor in the Uuited States,
and extensive importations OF
laborers from Mexico to meet it,
particularly in the border states
of California, Arizona, New
Mexico and Texas, Mr.. del
Vale found the opportunity and
the psychological moment to
project a propaganda that would
take and it is bearing results al
ready.
Calling into his office a score
or more of the leading represen-
-tatives of the extensive inter-
ests that are employing Mexican
labor upon a large scale, Mr.
del Vale outlined his plan and
enlisted their interest at once
The gentlemen present were
and are engaged in raising cit
rus fruits, nuts, raisins, sugar,
etc., and employ anywhere from
:, 100 to $50 Mexican laborers
each; and all who have any in
terest in commercial or indus
trial relations with II in any OF
the Latin-American countries
have been made eligible to mem
bership inathe organization that
was framed.
The meeting instituted the
Anerican-Eatin League, and It's
avowed objects, as set forth IN
the constitution adopted are:
1. Bringing together the
people of the two races, to
ameliorate the condition OF the
laboring people from any OF
those lands given employment
in the United States, and par
ticularly those in California
Arizona, New Mexico and Tex
as-the four states along the
border.

THE MIDLAND CASE

Judge Noonan who returned the
first of the week from Denver where
he represented Glenwood IS interests at
the hearing of Colorado Midland be
fore the Public Utilities commission,
says Mr. Carlton made very strong
representation of his side of the case
in his attempt to convince the commits
sion that the road cannot be made to
pay.
Just what the commissions ruling
will be Judge Noonan says he would
not undertake to predict. He is loath
to believe that the road will go out of
existence entirely, but that it will be
operated in its entirety as a going con-
cern he has some doubts. He is
rather inclined to believe that it will
be operated in piece meal to meet To-
cal demands from a freight stand
point. He says the commission was
very much interested in the presenta-
tion of the case and be thinks they
will make>a fair decision as they see
it.

GLENWOOD'S HEALING
VAPORS CHECK FLU

Speaking of Glenwood's recent re
cord with FLU cases j. c. Schwarz says
our sprngs and their wonderful heal
ing vapors have never been fully ap
preciated either by the home people or
by outside ;. He declares that our
people who have used these waters
freely have escaped the "flu' and
says these waters are more efficient in
ease of contagion than any quaran-
tine.
Another statement by Mr.. Schwarz
is TO the effect that the death rate for
cur own people during the months of
Nov ember ard December was Just the
same as last year, the majority OF
deaths from the flu epidemic being
from people outside who We're brought
here for treatment after contracting
the disease
Our people are most fortunate in
having the health giving protection OF

of the poor refugees returning to their
ruined homes. / have seen the towns
to which they are returning and can
partly imagine their feelings when
they see their ruined homes. We can
be thankful that America has been
spared this part of the war. 1t has
been terrible indeed for these poor
French people.
The part of Belgium through which
we are now marching has been spared
the worst part of the warfare and is
not badly torn up but has been occu-
pied by the Germans for more than
four years.
In all the towns through which we
have passed the buildings have been
decorated with allied flags. Some Of
the flags were homemade and it seems
that the American flag has been es-
pecially difficult for them to make. 1
saw one American flag today whica
had five red stripes, six white stripes
and only five stars 1t was easy to
see that the flag was homemade one.
The people here seem to be very
glad to see the American soldiers and
are very courteous and kind to us.
They treat us with the same kindly
consideration that would be shown us
by our own home people. The treat
ment is appreciated by the American
soldiers who are very careful to do
nothing which would reflect discredit
upon them.

THE NEW YEAR

The last note of the sounding buge dies.
The drums are still Into the realm of years
which are no more, where memories
Are dead, and petty jealouses and fears
Have ceased to be, where bitterness has gone
And only leaves behind heritage
OF happiness. the Old Year passes on
The echoes are still Time lifts the page
OF young men S blood and battle-felds of death,
And, as he turns it FER in love of them
Who gladly sacrificed their mortal breath,
The clear-voice bells ring ont requiem
And with the bells New Year has begun:
Then beams the dawn of Hope, the night is DONE

GOD Is WITH US

Church spires mutely speak the ancient belief
that God is in Heaven and that all s right with this
world. Christmas inverts the symbol of the steepes
Its look is from heaven earthward it cries ''God is
with u.s." Its recurring celebrations emphasize the
first Christmas the revelation of an abiding fact;
it the uncovering of light that shines
and more until it will become perfect day. The
first Christmas centers in divine life in human
body thu, lived under every human handicap. The
hopes of the world today center in that fact.
Not since the beginning has there been a more mo-
mentous Christmas than the upon whose thresh-
old stand Its hope is in the presence of
God in human affairs. 1t is looking for IL divine
spirit beneah the fluX and turmoil of the present
time not for some miraculous Intervention from the
skies. Business church, school every serious human
activity is full of expectancy. Groups meet
ing everywhere seeking for the paths of the future
Christ is political and business force. If He with
that He represents is to remain with purely reli-
gous institutions then Christmas will be merely the
celebration of memory, the pledge that yonder,
somewhere, apart from our crying needs, Is He
whose glory flashed for a moment and then left
the world in stygian darkness. Come Christian
men! This is wider, fuller, richer Christmas than
the first God is with us! In lowly managers, in
unSuspected places the power that lifts the world
is hidden Let bring frankincense and de-
votions to the invisible divine force and know that
difficulty, of these difficult days can withstand
the might of His gentle pcwek

These Armies Composed of Former Subjects of Centra!s Powers
 Now with Allies

PARIS, May 3.-0ver 18,000 sol diers of Rumanian origin have been captured by the Italian forces. The Rumanians were fighting under the Austrian flag.
 They have asked permission from the Italians to be allowed to go to the front again and fight against the Austrians, which request has been granted, and the organization of these troops is now under way.
 With the entrance of this force in the field, three armies composed of former subjects of the Central Powers will be fighting on the side of the Allies.
 Czech troops are already under arms fighting with the Italians. A Polish army is fighting with the Allies on the western front.
 Military men say that the Ruman- ians were pressed into service by the Germans after Germany had dictated peace terms" to Rumania and taken practical possession of the country.

 ARMY TOGETHER

FRENCH ARMY HEAD QUARTERS, May 3.-Under the blows from the Germans the Allied armies are welded together as never before.
 Against the territorial gains of the enemy must be set the fact that he has had 40 divisions into battle in four weeks, and that the reckless use of these divisions has left him with a total of 66 divis- ions, out of 206 in France which have not been engaged; therefore, there is little likli hood that the 66 can accom- p1ish what the 40 failed to accomplish.
