Panama railroad, and later the con

the Panama canal, and railway;
across Guatemala and Costa Rlca
Central America has become easily

Shortly before the construction Of
the Panama railroad, coffee was in.
troduced into Central America from
the West Indies. and was found ia
grow to perfection In the lava soil on
the slopes of the volcanic mountains
along the Pacific coast of most Of the
region. Coffee SCOT became an export
of prime importance and has brought
much money into Central America.

acquired extensive tracts Of land In
the Atlantic plain, reclaimed 1t from
the jungle, and planted great banana
groves which produce millions Of
punches of bananas yearly.
The by-products of this development
have been as valuable to Central
America as the money that has flowed
directly to laborers and to the gov
eminent. Important cities have
sprung up along the Atlantic coast,
railroads have been built, and what
Is probably most important Of all, lines
Of fast, well-eQuipped steamers, carry
Ing both passengers and freight have
been established between the Atlantic
ports and those of the United States.
In effect the banana has shifted Cen
trail America thousands of miles clos

A ROMANCE OF A
AND COFFEE

When the American small boy eats
his daily quota of bananas, and when
his fsther and mother sip their break
East, luncheon, or dinner coffee, they
are making important contributions to
.he prosperity Of fellow Americans
OF whom they know very little-the
residents Of the five Central American
republics which have lately reached a
preliminary decision for the forma-
den of 4 sort of UNITED States OF
Central America"
Central America illustrates striking
ly the effects Of geographic factors on
a regions development. All the five
republics lie on the relatively narrow
isthmus between the narrow ribbon
Of Panama ON the south and Mexico
on the north. The Spanish settle
ments made soon after the discovery
Of America were all on the Pacific
side of the isthmus- for the most part
on the p~lateaus and mountain slopes
and In the mountain valleys Of that
region, which temper an otherwise
tropical climate. Practically the en-
tire Atlantic side Of the isthmus was
q low plain, covered with a dense
jungle.
At the time of the throwing of OF
the Spanish yoke in 1921, the Central
American settlements were as effec-
tually cut off from the United States
as II they had been many thousands
of miles away instead of being only
ACROSS the Caribbean sea. With the
