Society folk flocked to wherever the
location was on that particular day
one of F1orida's many small lakes
even the swamps of the Everglades
were invaded. 1t is a novelty to see
a picture filmed, and Palm Beach

they missed anything out of the ord
mary. In automobiles and carriages,
on horseback and in launches, some
on foot, a veritable army of fans was
present at the shooting of every scene
for this production which provides
splendid role for Dorothy Dalton.

The speaker called attention to the
strategic Importance of the Panama
canal as a part of the coastline of
the United States. He declared that
it was the key to the defense of our
country and that much as we, as a

obligations from the West Indies we
could not permit European nations
to acquire strategic points as would
be afforded by island possessions

| nationals but really for the purpose
| of obtaining military foothold in the
f, West Indies and weakening to that
! extent the position of the United
| States in the Panama canal. He said
that the governments of both Haiti
and Santo Domingo in 1914 had be-
come reduced to so low a state of
efficiency and corruption that for the
good of the world it was necessary
for some civilized nation to take a
hand and he declared that in order
to uphold the Monroe doctrine the
United States was forced to take q
hand to prevent one or more Euro
pean nations from doing so.
He said that the sanitary condi-
lions of both Haiti and Santo Domin-
go were beyond belief-that open
sewers were used and that in them
floated the foul pollution from cities
aggregating in population from sew
eral thousand to we'll over 100000 in
habitants-that the stencil was evil
dent for miles and that Haiti and
Santo Domingo had become menace
10 the health of the world.
He also said that revolutions had
become so frequent that there was
no guarantee of life or protection of
property and that both governments
had defaulted completely in their OBJ
legations to the United States and
other countries; and to the nationals
as well of these countries that by
treaties made with Haiti in 1915 and
Santo Domingo in 1916, the United
States undertook the direction of the
financial affairs of both these coun-
tries in cooperation with the local
authorities and also undertook the
working out of policies that would
enable both nations to attain such
stability as would remove any cause
for interference on the part of foreign
nations
Carrying out this policy, Mr.. French
pointed out that highways of excel
lent character had been built under
the direction of the United States Of
ficers throughout both Haiti and San
to Domingo, that schools had been
established widely and that hospitals
had been erected and that the cities
had been provided with modern sewer
systems so that health conditions |
generally were excellent. He pointed |
out that the expense of carrying for
ward this work had been born by |
the two countries under the treaties, !
with the exception of such expense as |
was necessary in the maintenance of |
our own officers and forces employed. |
Population is Negro
He said that the population of both |
countries was overwhelmingly negro, |
in Haiti speaking the French langu-
age and in SantO Domingo speaking |
Spanish, reflecting thereby the influ-
snce of the two European countries
hat for many years controlled the |
1estinies of these two lands.
The speaker said that the better
people in both countries are
back of the policy of the United |
States and many thousands of them
ire DESTROYS of annexation, though
1e said this thought was not enter
aimed by our government. The con-
