DIPLOMATS EXPECT
AID FOR CABRERA
Latin America Watching Eff
forts of United States TO
Secure His Release.
WAS A FRIEND IN NEED
Deposed Dictator Of Guatemala
Now at Mercy of
Half German.

Ss,oial Despatch 20 The New YORK Herald.
WARRINGTON, Nov. 27.-Otticials OF
Latin America are centring attention on
the efforts which the United States is
making TO secure the release from
prison Of Estrada Cabrera, former Presi-
dent 81 Guatemala.
II has become known that the state
Department has taken definite steps
within the last few days 10 bring about
the release OF the deposed dictator. with
the result that Central and South Amer
lean leaders are intensely Interested In
the outcome.
Efforts on behalf Of Cabrera by this
country will be regarded as evidence TO
the Latin Americans not only of the
prestige and influence OF the United
States but also as indication OF the ex-
tent to which It's gratitude may go.
There is no particular sympathy ex-
pressed for the deposed Guatemalan die
tator except the natural one for an I'M
fortunate man. Chief interest is resting
in the fact that he has been long known
as the particular friend Of the United
states. not always a popular role with
some of his Central American neigh
bors. During the twenty years that
Cabrera ruled or reigned State Depart
inent officials acknowledge he was al
ways willing TO adopt suggestions ema-
mating from AMERICA.
When the United States entered the
war with Germany Cabrera promptly
declared war. seized German property
and put down pro-Geman propaganda
with an iron hand He was threatened
by the Carranza forces OF Mexico, but
refused to be disturbed or to alter his
course
In view OF this attitude the failure OF
Benton Mcmillan American Minister to
Guatemala, to use the American ma
rineS to escort Cabrera to a place OF
safety after the revolution which de-
posed him, has been long a subject OF
curiosity and comment among Latin
American diplomats BY the terms of
Cabrera's equalization he was TO be ac-
corded safety and freedom. Mcmillan E
conduct Is contrasted with that Of the
British charge, Mr.. Armstrong. who
took possession OF the person OF Manuel
Echeverra, Minister of Foreign Affairs
under Cabrera. gave him asylum in the
British legation and later sent him to
the port accompanied by British lega-
ton representatives and saw to It that
lie was placed on board British ship.
Echeverra had been specially friendly
to British interests as well as to the
allied cause during the war.
In view OF Cabrera's pro-ally attitude
during the war II Is regarded as singular
by diplomatic observers that the leading
spirit in Guatemala to-day is Emilio
Escemeillio, half German, educated In
Germany, with a record Of service in the
German army. Escemeillio is Minister OF
War in the new Government.
The former Guatemalan dictator. now
an old man and very i'll. Is confined in a
stone floored cell and held inconruuni-
cado. according to advices reaching here
from Guatemala City.

long sustained the Roman Empire, from
which France Is already receiving ever
increasing nourishment and In which
many Frenchmen see the reservoir OF
the life blood of newly great France
Beyond the Mediterranean coast of
Africa France has acquired under man
date the German CAMERON, with an
area OF 166,4S9 square miles. plus the
I07,270 square miles coded to Germany
by Caillaux and his school in 1911. with
a population OF 100000, the latest trade
returns available (191S) show that the
total import and export trade was worth
81 400. 600 francs. The possibilities,
however. are good, 1t being notorious
that the Germans had only tickled the
latent industries OF the country.
Two-thirds Of German Togoland,
amounting to 1888 square miles, with
a population Of 750 900, is also adminl]-
tered by France, included in the Da-
honey military territories. The trade
Cor the whole of German Togoland In
1918 was under a million pounds, but
like French Dahomey itself II was quite
undeveloped and peaceful era should
enable great progress to be made with
the valuable products Of palm oil, copra'
cocoa and cotton.
The other chief mandate assigned to
france is for 106.740 square miles of
SYRIA. with a very mixed population of
hree and quarter millions. The treaty
of Sevres assigned Syria to France
largely because of the influence that
France has exercised as the protector OF
Catholics in the Near East for 200
wears. The trade possibilities for Syria
are much the same as those Tor Mesopo-
tamia, but the race question is more
difficult one, and it is probable that
France will have more trouble In estao-
fishing a regime of order In Syria than
Great Britain in Mesopotamia. She has
the advantage of railway lines well con-
structed and communicating with vari-

four declaration OF 1917. embodied in the
leace treaty with Turkey and express
ing a somewhat equivocal policy toward
the provision OF a national home for the
Jews, alongside tho safeguarding OF the
interests OF the present inhabitants. Re-
cent reports from Palestine indicate that
Sir Herbert Samuel is having no easy
time following this two-horned policy.
The area included under the mandate is
only 5000 square miles. with a popula-
ton OF 647.000, OF whom $500 are
Jews. The inundated portion is only
that part of Palestine west OF the Jor-
dan. For the year following the armis-
tice the trade for the whole OF Palestine
was only f2,750,000. The chief products
are grain and milk and meat for local
consumption, with fruits and wine for
export The Standard Oil Company con-
trolls most OF the oil wells. There are
some phosphates. asphalt and gypsum.
Strangely enough. the development of
Palestine, according to latest reports,
depends for the moment not so much
upon England as upon the generosity OF
wealthy American Jews. Development
Is almost wholly in the hands of the
Zionist organizations and they depend
for the cost OF bringing in immigrants
and for new agricultural plant almost
entirely upon eleemosynary subscrip-
lions. Though originally this Zionist
movement found much wider support
among the wealthy Jews OF England,
postwar taxation has so heavily cut
into their fortunes that the organization
has now frankly turned toward Their
less heavily taxed supporters in New
York.
The wine and fruit industries are
practically the only ones under the Zion
st organization which hold out promises
of profit in any appealing sense. Efforts
to cultivate the shallow soil OF the
saucerlike valley involve a gigantic
labor of terracing, endless labor OF cult
walton and produces for the laborers but
the barest livelihood. In the fertile
coastal regions, on the other hand. a
wine can be grown usefully olendable
with other wines. Citrous fruits grow
we'll, but their disposal is extremely
limited by transport problems. Last
year almost the entire fine orange crop
rottcd for lack Of ships One of the
most urgent needs Of Palestine is capital
for a large preserving plant to takl
care OF this product. "Marmalade from
the Holy Land" is looked forward to as
a substantial new item in the world s
market for comestibles.
