From the San Bernardino SUM-
The earth is not a dead mass Of in

crust is In constant motion, 1t may
even be said, In a sense, to breathe.
The earth's surface, says DR.. Thomas
A. Jaggar of the Hawaiian volcano
observatory, rises and falls a foot
about twice every four hours. DR..
Jaggar calls these movements rock

lieves, by the pull of the sun and
the moon acting upon the revolving

Man and not nature, thinks DIR. Jag

Many old teachings, once laughed
at as sheer superstition, are finding
support in the discoveries of modern
science. There is a curious ancient
teaching that the earth is IAN entity"

Italy and Jugoslavia.-A semi-offi-
cial denial is reported of the wide
spread rumor that Sir Austen Cham
berlain had been using his good offices
toward a reconciliation between Rome
and Belgrade.
Rome, of course, is willing to be
reconciled with Belgrade; not only
willing, but eager. She is, however,
constrained to insist on two conditions.
One, that Jugoslavia ratify the Net
tuno Convention. which would give
Italy extraordinary privileges in Dal-
malta; the other, that Jugoslavia
recognize in formal and precise terms
the privileged position of Italy re-
specting Albania. as set forth in the
recently concluded Italo-Albanian

China.-No incident of extraordinary
Importance involving foreigners has
occurred during the past seven days.
Evacuation of foreigners, especially
Americans and British, from all along
the Yangtze to Shanghai continues,
under escort of or in war vessels, as
rapidly as possible. Most of the for
eigners still remaining in Fukien and
Chekiang Provinces are concentrated
at Foochow. Annoy or Ningo under

Mr.. McMurray, our Minister at
Peking. has broadcast advice to
Americans in Honan, south of the
Yellow River, in Anhwei, in Kiangsu
and in southern Shantung, to consult
their safety by flight. Anti-foreign
agitation is reported to be spreading
northward, and one hears that Ma
tionalist forces in considerable num-
bers are pushing north and that a
clash between Nationalist and North
ern troops is to be expected at Su-
chau northwest corner of Kiangsu
Province), where the railroad from
Kaifeng meets the Pukow-Tientsin
line.
Anti-foreign sentiment has been a
great deal exacerbated by mendacious
propaganda accounts Of the Marking
affair; there have been anti-foreign
and lootings at sundry
points, as for example Wuhu and
Chungking Din Szechuan). But we
have no reports of violence against
the persons of foreigners since the
Nanking incident. The shooting from
the shores of the Yangtze on foreign
vessels is mere Celestial fooling. The
native city of Shanghai is said to be
dangerously seething, but the dis
patches convey the impression that
the danger of attack on the foreign
settlements from without or of mob
uprising within is not considered
acute. 1t would seem that Hankow
is the only town on the Yangtze where
foreigners remain in considerable
number. About 1000 American men
obstinately stay on there, apparently
without doing any business. Else

The judicial committee of the Privy

rendered an exceedingly important de-
cision by way of delimiting the boun-
daries between Newfoundland, Lab
rador, and the province of Quebec.
The matter had been in dispute since
1868, when, upon the acquisition of
Canada, the British Crown assigned
to the jurisdiction of Newfoundland
"the coast" of Labrador from the
Strait of Belle Island to Hudson
Strait. The controversy turned upon

last century, because up to that time
neither Quebec nor Newfoundland had

the interior country. it's economic po-
tentialities not having been perceived.
When enlightenment came troubles
arose, SO in 1903 the governments of
Canada and Newfoundland agreed to
refer the dispute to the Privy Council.
Preparation of the case covered about
a quarter of a century. Newfound-
land contended that coast" should be
interpreted as including the entire
watershed of the peninsula draining
into the Atlantic; Canada that it
should mean only a seaside strip a
mile deep from high water. answer

The very distinguished court. pre-
sided over by the lord chancellor, de-
cided favorably to Newfoundland's
claim. Newfoundland Labrador as
thus delimited comprises an area of
10000 square miles (the area Of the
island of Newfoundland is $4,000
square miles). To be sure, it's popu-
lation is only 1000, including 1000

Development has been at stand

themselves, because of uncertainty as

of its cheap production possibilities.
A notable example of this is the huge

of Quebec.
Here development is under way
which will ultimately provide over a
million horsepower. 1t was the ad-

back to normal, after an interruption
caused by the war. The government
has embarked upon a definite inni-
grafton policy which is Offering every
encouragement to immigrants of the

again taken up by experienced agri-
cuiturists from Great Britain, from
the European countries and from the
western States. Our farmers are
happy and contented. The great ma

past few years, and are now enjoying
many OF the luxuries of life.
In the northern sections of our
country great new mineral areas are
being opened up, and within the past
two years several big mining develop

these American capital has also

From all this it can be seen that
Canada has entered upon a remark

PAN-AMERICAN SESSION
MAY SMOOTH BREACHES
Delegates at Conference Here Will
Make Sincere Effort to Better
Commercial Relations.

TIME forthcoming Pan-American
commercial conference which
convenes in Washington a
Il month hence is Of far deeper
import than appears on the
surface. The meeting Is intended to
be much more than simply program
of goodwill speechmaking Behind
the project is sincere effort to ad-
just differences and heal breaches In
the commercial relations between the
United States and the republics to
the south of US.
These breaches are real and sub
stantial. Central and South Ameri
can nations have a formidable list of
grievances, wholly apart from matters
OF politics. Strained political rela.
tions growing out of Mexican land
law disputes, Nicaraguan interven-
tion and the Tacna-Arica boundary
controversy-not forgetting to men
tion Haiti and the exclusion of Sena-
tor King-have been we'll advertised.
Matters Of trade and business rela-
tions Of far-reaching consequence
both to this country and to its south
ern neighbors have been rather forced
into the background.
Argentina Perturbed.
Argentina is perturbed-that Is a
exclusion of her meats and fruits
from the United States. Now an ex-
clusion order of Argentine alfalfa
seed Is in the offlng. Nominally these
exclusions have been ordered as
measures Of sanitary safeguard, but
Argentina attributes a motive. quite
different, desire on the part of our
Government to offer protection to
American live stock and agricultural
interests. These matters are bones
of contention which Argentina
brings to the Washington conference.
Chile Is alarmed about her nitrate
trade. Heretofore the principal source
of the worlds supply of natural nj
trate, she sees her markets waning
by the inroads of the synthetic nitrate
industry. Chile's economic position in
world trade faces drastic readjustment
In consequence. Chile wants our "co-
operation" in this emergency.
Brazil has a grievance in connection
with her world coffee trade which re-
wolves around her valorization plan
a scheme of holding off the market
portions of her coffee crop to hold up
the price. Brazil asserts her valoriza-
ton plan is not unlike, in principle,
what the American farmers are
clamoring for to take care of agricul-
tural "surpluses." Brazil resents our
interference" with loans sought from
American bankers to finance her
coffee valorization operations, and
wants the loan boycott lifted.
Venezuela is dissatisfied with the
shipping facilities accorded her by
American ship lines in the South
American trade. Cuba has her griev-
ance over the present parcel post con-
vention which our Congress set out
to modify, but failed to do.
Disputes to Be Separated.

The President, / understand, pro-
poses another survey with a view to
determining which were better-to en-
large the capacity of the Panama
canal or to construct a new inter
oceanic canal across Nicaragua.
The tonnage which passed through
the Panama Canal last year was more
than double the figure forecast for
the year when the canal was opened
1t was 26.000,000 as against 5.O00,.
600 in 1915. The maximum annual
capacity with the present locks and
reservoirs is, | believe, about 50,000,.
600 tons. With additional reservoirs
1t could be increased to 100, 200, 900.
Even the higher figure will be over
taken by traffic quite soon enough.
Shall we enlarge the locks, impound-
ing more water corTespondingly? Or
shall we, following the advice of M.
Bunau Varilla, create a sea level
channel at least 1000 yards wide? Or
shall we run another canal across
Nicaragua? That would mean two
canals to defend in case of war:
serious consideration. A fascinating
problem.
According to a Department of Com
merce statement, exports from the
United States to all China, including
Hongkong, In 1925 amounted to $129,-
100000 in value, exceeding the 1925
total by $15,475, 900. Imports to the
United States from China were valued
at $172 $4,000, a decline of about 10
per cent from the 1926 figure.
