Ambassador Has Not Yet Told of De.
livering Note.

SANTIAGO, Chile, June IS R.-
Chile has not yet notified the United
States Government that she considers
as no longer required the good Offices
proffered by Secretary of State kel.
1ogg for a direct settlement of the
Tacna-Arica dispute between Chile
and Peru.
The explanation given in govern.
ment circles Is that Senor Curchags.
the Ambassador at Washington. has
not yet informed the government here
that he has delivered the note to this
effect. The delay on the part of the
Ambassador in presenting it is inter
preted as being due to a request by
Secretary Kellogg to postpone such
action in the hope that there may yet
be found some formula acceptable to
both Chile and Peru for a settlement
Of the controversy.
Capital Filled With Talk.
The Chilean capital is filled with
talk about the course the territorial
dispute has taken, but the people gen.
orally are lacking in concrete infor.
nation as to just what has been done
and what is taking place, because the
government is maintaining absolute
silence.

and the slogan Latin America for the
Latin Americans" were urged by
Deputy Edward Matte, Chilean repre-
sentative on the Tacna-Arica plebis
