Admiral Don Luis Comes Carreno of
the Chilean Navy, speaking Of the re-
lations between Chile and the United
| States, said:
Yes. I was In charge Of tho subma-
rfncs. first GLASS, built In this country
for ENGLAND and cedsd to Chile IN 1917.
On tho way TO South America they
made over 1000 miles to Taicahuano
and proved TO be excellent boats. They
did very well during the trip and stood
the sea beautifully. though they expe-
Hatteras and OF part Of tho coast IN
South Amerioa. ..,..
| They did - well that they were
never towed along the journey, which
was a great credit to the Fore River
| Company at Quincy, Masa, which built
the hulls. and for the Electric Boat
Company, New London, Conn.,, where
tho engines were constructed Besides,
the Navy Department gave N all sorts
Of factlities for overhaulings and small
| repairs In the different ahipyards along
your coast down TO Balboa which
earned our gratitude a. we'll o. that Of
the Chilean Government and its people.
Tho relations Of Chile with the
United States are Of the most friendly
nature and destined to become closer
and closer every day. The opening of
tho Panama Canal has shortened the
| distance separating these two countries
| and to-day the most northern Chilean
port, africa, Hes only about $500 miles
from New York, whereas before the
canal was opened and when the only
sea route was the Strait of Magellan.
the Chilean port nearest 10 tho Atlantic
coost OF the United States was Punta
Arenas, distant iough1y, some 5000
miles from this metropolis. Now the
Pacific Ocean win be a great field for
Characterization cooperation.
| American enterprise has In recent
years pushed tho production Of copper
In chile on such scale that we rank
TODAY ~ one Of the three largest cop
pes producing countries Of tho world
In referring to tho copper producing
American concerns II II only fair to
them TO say that they have done and are
doing very good work. not only allowing
the possibilities Of Chile's mineral
wealth. but also giving splendid ex-
ample Of all that can be done for the
welfare Of the working classes. They
have looked after their workmen gen.
erously and intelligenty.

American firm il working one of Chile's
| great iron ore deposits. I need not add
how Chile would welcome q further de-
| velopment In this line and see the iron
and steel industry established there.
We have not only the iron ore, but coal,
limestone. waterfalls and timber and the
only thing needed Is some powerful mind
to combine those elements In order to
create this key--industry.
american banks have established
branches in Chile and It Is to be hoped
that they will be instrumental in further
| developing the Chilean-American trade.
It Is difficult to say whether 1t 10 good
feeling that engenders material interest
or whether the latter creates tho good
feeling. but this much can be said, both
go together and when one finds material
interests created between two countries
| II Is because the good feeling exists.
together and tho more they know each
| other the more they win appreciate each
other. They both are hardy and enter
| prising people, living in countries equally
democratic and equally free from in
ternal disturbances. and in this respect
Chile ana the United States have this
| in common-they have had but one civil
war each since they became nations.
| Neither has had revolutions. But what

and the other South American republics
with the United States will be the future
development of your merchant marine
because we must not forget that trade

legislation for your merchant flag will
help It."
