organize the iron industry of Brazil, as seems
probable, they need not fear to encounter any
feeling of antipathy on the part of these anna

"RAVELERS returning from South
h America generally express themselves
n with good deal of assurance regard
ing the degrees of friendship or enmty
which they have discovered during their visit
but their several views differ so widely that
readers In this country are left in doubt as to
what really are the feelings Of these people
towards u.s. Obviously, the reasons for these
confilcting statements are that travellers do not
all visit the same places and do not meet the
same people. Moreover, public opinion changes
year by year and sometimes from day to day.
Len or twelve years ago there was bitter
hatred IN the hearts of Chileans and Colon-
oians Tor the United States. To-day the Chill
cans respect and trust us probably as we'll as
they do any other nation, and Colombia has
dritted into such close relations of trade with
us and has travelled so far towards political
reconciliation that good understanding is al
most certain to endure.
Brazil has always been the enigma of South
America. 1t is so big, and the influences
brought to bear by the heterogeneous races Of
which 1t is composed are so easily misunder
stood. The Portuguese are everywhere in the
country. Can it be possible that they and the
Indians of the Amazon, the negroes from
Maranham to Rio de Janeiro, the Italians Of
S. Paulo and the Germans of the three south
ern states think alike on any given subject?
And yet the assimilation of races in Brazil
has been wonderfully successful. Without
much fag-fapping or national anthem singing
all these people have acquired a real affection
for the land in which they dwell. The imm-
grants, except the Gallegos of north Spain,
rarely return to Europe even after they have
grown rich, and all of them, especially the
Germans, insist jealousy upon their Brazilian
without any formality of natural
cation.
Rrazilians may be divided into four classes:

Pessoa was immensely impressed by the I'M
portance Of good understanding between
Brazil and the United States during his visit
to this country
Brazil is conscious that in her size lies her
weakness. With the exception of Chile and
Ecuador, all nations of South America are her
immediate neighbours and all are potential enc
mes, though present relations are peaceful;
enough. She is proud of having been our ally
IN the great war-the only declared bellig
erent IN South America. Her people are well
contented to count the Americans as friends
From the trade viewpoint it should be re-
membered that we are by far the best Gus
toners of Brazil. American dollars have al
ways been plentifully forthcoming in payment
of Brazilian coffee and rubber, and will in
future flow even more freely in exchange for
minerals. This gold used to pass through
London, and most Of it stuck there to pay for
manufactured goods. There was not much
reciprocity in this, but the customer who
comes to buy with money in his hand is always
welcome and an honored guest. If he does
not make friends it is his own fault.
on the whole, it may truthfuy be said that
Brazil Is our best friend in South America.
All the ten South American nations have their
ldlosyncrasles and differ in many respects one
from the other; but Brazil differs widely from
them all in race and in traditions The polit-
zeal ambitions of Argentina are not hers and
the woes of Colombia do not touch her. While
1t is not necessary to assume that the likes of
the Spanish nations will be her dslikes, and
wee versa, she will certainly not be swayed in
her preferences by their approval or disap-
prevail. She is proud of having been our ally
Il repeat-and out of this has arisen a senti-
ment OF friendly relationship which may well
become tradition in time, and which will not
be endangered by the eccentricities Of few
individuals in either Rio de Janeiro or New
York There is strong sense of humor IN
both cities.

Americans with whom they have come in con-

educated classes in the other South American

no illusions about exchange; they know more

imperialism and twice-by astute diplomacy

But she left the screen after
