BUENOS AIRES, April 10 -
Paraguay is a land of wonderful
opportunity for North Americans,
says W. l. Schurz, United States

completed a seven months investi-

dollars in American money has thus

Schurz, millions more OF American
capital would ind a profitable re-
turn there.
Nearly the size of the state of
Missouri and with less than 1.000,-
coo inhabitants, Paraguay has un-
touched resources OF amazing va
riety and possibilities. AR SchurZ
