The combinati tion appears in MT. Rog- CTS latest Goldwyn picture, An Unwilling Hero" by O. Henry, ard may be seen this evening for the last time at the Palace Theater. MT.

WASHINGTON. June 2G.-The |. Minister of Colombia to the United States. Dr. Enrique Olya, in his ad- dress to Pres:dcai Harding on the occasion of his formal reception, dwelt upon the increasing business co-oDeration between Americans and ColombiaNs, and expressed his hope for even bejtef relations in this re garl in the future.

Colomtia's most important seaport on the Atlantic, and for the , opening up of the deltas at the mouth of the Magdalena River.
 American engineers have been studying prospects of development in Colombia, the Minister continued. and have reported favorably on more than one attracted possibility. Also American bankers arc showing the roal interest in Colombia.
 "The notable increase of recent years in the foreign trade of the re- public of Colombia Dr. Olaya con tinued. reached the sum of $171,- 900, ,000 fer the year 1920. This places Colombia fif,h among the South American countries. q position at tained only by the herculcan and un- reaeing efforts of the hard-working md industrious people laboring un- der disheartening handicaps and diff ficulties of transportation.
 The government of Colombia recognizes the need of better means of communication, and to this end it $ studying with careful attention a variety of proposals submitted to it by competent engineers"
 The promotion of public works in Cuba will claim the serious atten- tion of the new president of that re- public, General Pedro Nel Ospina, now in this country. who returns soon to Colombia, where he will assume office August '.
