Chile was the first to have commercial
feet of its own. which, as far back as
1850. began a regular service with the
ports OF the Pacific coast up to San
Francisco. This service continued until
some twenty years ago. when the re-
strictions put on the foreign transporta-
ton. coupled with the increased demand
for steamship service within Chilean
frontiers, made II advisable to curtail its
service to Panama.
As is now we'll known, the Germans
we're at that time monopollzing the Cen
trail American transportation on the Pa
cific coast sending their steamships to
Vancouver and thus putting even Eng

count of the war the west coast Of
South America was suddenly depleted OF
every kind of ship and Chile found her
self back in the colonial period of isloa-
ton. Passengers arriving In Panama on
board the Chilean steamships found
themselves forced to wait one or two
weeks for the eventual coming OF a
steamship bound for the American porte
A good instance of the many incon-
veniences this situation Is causing Is
supplied by the fact that the Chilean

WEST INDIES OFFER
FIELD FOR TRADE
Royal Bank Of Canada Points
to AdOantages.

Opportunities for trade development in
the West Indies, a region hitherto prac-
tically ignored by many American manu-
facturers, are strikingly brought out IN
brochure issued this week by the Royal
Bank of Canada Of Montreal, with a
branch in New York city.
In bringing out the salient features in
volved in commercial relations with the
West indies the bank discloses these in
teresting facts:
"The West Indies provide a population
OF approximately s,000.0 people de-
pendent for manufactured articles and
foodstuffs wholly on imports from other
countries.
"A market of demonstrated purchasing
power. buying from the United states,
for instance, as much OF more goods as
the entire continent of South America
(t1el.ls5,791 in the fiscal year 1915, as
against &l77.62s,611 for South America) g,
two-thirds as much as Asia and the East
Indies and four and one-half times as
much as all of Africa Gin 1870.
Possibilities OF great development OF
natural resources. agricultural mineral
and forest, are reflected in the recent
marked growth OF the Islands own ex-
ports, bringing increasing prosperity.
with a growing demand for. modern con-
veniences and luxuries which the ex-
porter OF other countries must supply.
Location within easy shipping dis
lance Of American ports makes the West
Indies q logical customer for the United
States
Relations Of friendship and mutual
interest, based on geographical and po-
litical considerations, increasingly make
for the advancement of trade between
the Islands and the United States.
The opportunities opened TO the
American exporter TO the West Indies
by the conditions prevailing during re-
cent years are suggested BY the increases
shown by the following table:

Power of German Banks.

The German banks are a power in
Argentina: not SO long ago one German
firm lent the Argentine Government
100000 pesos. The Argentine Govern
ment needs an increased national
revenue, and In order to obtain 1t has
formulated a law taxing personal in

on the latter is based on earnings on
invested capital. Now German invest
ments in Argentina are third In i'm
portance, Great Britain coming first ana
France second. Therefore. II Is hardly
feasible TO expect Argentine to hamper
the development OF a great taxation
medium.

wool and cotton fabric plants which
produce $500. 100000 worth OF material
annually. II IL interesting to note that
many Of these fabrics have German

ENTERTAINMENT OF THE

Previous to beginning a most ex-

Stanbury called the attention OF his
congregation to the fact that the
conference of the Methodist church
is a month and week off, and since
it will be difficult to entertain the
conference on account of the con-
gestion in this city that he hoped
the people would be willing to make
sacrifices, and that it was not neces-
sary to try and provide room or
one bed for each visitor. They
would be willing to sleep two in a
bed. He, hoped that right of way
would be given the ministers and
delegates and that visitors would
not monopolize the homes.
Speaking for our people we are
quite sure they will as usual do all
they can to make those who attend
comfortable and see that homes
are provided and thus maintain the
splendid reputation that Wilson en-.
