Urges Frank Policy.

Urges Frank Policy.
Following Mr.. Kellogg's address, a
welcome was extended by Senor DR..
Enrique Olaya, the minister of Colon.
bia and vice chairman of the govern
ing board of the Pan American
Union.
Dealing closely with the business
and financial relations between the
Americas, DR.. Olaya warned that a
policy OF frankness and good faith,
fruitful in any field, yields more
| magnificent harvest in the world of
business than any other"
Recounting the commercial possi-
bilities which he declared have become
great realities" he said they have
given rise to economic and juridic
problems of fundamental Importance,
which, perhaps for a whole generation
to come, will occupy the close atten-
| ton of statesmen. Any concrete So
luton reached, he declared, must rest
on the one great concept of justice.
"And justice in this case he said,
means an equitable consideration to-
ward foreign capital invested in new
countries and which is entitled to the
guarantees afforded by security and
confidence. 1t means" he added, "jus-
| tice which means consideration toward
the states possessing the riches which
open the door to foreign capital, to
the end that such capital may enjoy
the protection and jurisdiction of the
sovereign law of each country; JUS
tice unimpeded by disturbingn
egoisms or jealousies."
Worlds Financial Center.
The United States, which DR.. Olaya
declared is the financial center of the
world, turns without hesitation to.
ward South America as a fitting place
for the investment of those funds
which the present prosperity of this
great nation permits to be exported
This attitude is of transcendental
benefit to Latin America, permitting,
as it does" he added, 'the realiza.
| tion Of public works, sanitation pro-
jects and other undertakings affect
| ing public welfare and civilization,
the execution of which, otherwise
would have been delayed for decades.
| The credits opened in the United
States to the governments, munich

| Central and South America in the
| last 10 years may be likened to
| formulating wave with respect to the
| general prosperity, which may be
| noted today throughout this conti-
nent.
Imperial Aim Discounted.
"An event of such importance as
| this cannot fail to give rise to refiec-
| tions and conclusions as to the pos
sible consequences, not only from the
economic, but also from the political
standpoint. Indeed, there do not lack

since the first one at Washington in
1889. Mr.. Kellogg declared, have laid
the foundation of an American system
in the best sense of the word, a sys-
tenn embodying the agreements for the
orderly and peaceful settlement of
pursuits, and for constructive cooper
alton in the solution of common prob
lens
1.-THE development of this spirit of
unity does not involve the slightest
thought of antagonism to any other
section of this world" he said. "It
is simply a recognition of the fact
that the New World is confronted
with a group of problems which have
arisen out of the special circum-
stances surrounding the settlement of
our respective countries and that the
most effective solution of these prob
lens is to be gained by constant inter-
change Of experience and by care
fully planned coordination of effort.
In Entire Harmony.
Mr. kellogg declared "a firm basis
for international sympathy and good
feeling" is possible from the fact that
the civilizations, the political ideals
and the social development of all the
Americas are in entire harmony and
moving along the same lines.
"The poiets of resemblance that
unite us are far more numerous and
far more important than any differ
ences that may exist" he said.
"Pan-Americanism means some
thing far deeper than the existence of
friendly relations between govern
ments," Mr.. Kellogg added. "It means
above all things a naturally sympa.
thetic understanding of all national
ideals and purposes between the
peoples of this continent"
This unity of purpose, he claimed,
has become more and more evident
since the people of the United States,
over century ago, followed the ma
tions of Latin America in their
struggle for independence.
ut is needless for me to say to you
that the Government as well as the
people of the United States desire to
foster the closest possible understand
ing with the governments and ma
tions of Latin America" he assured
the delegates in concluding his
address.

Everyday Law Cases
VIII Broker Making UnGuth-
orized Sale Get Commission?
by THE COUNSELLOR.
BY THE COUNSELLOR

Henry Jackson was a tobacco bro
ker. He had made one sale for Tom
West on which he had collected COM
missions and some time later he saw
the opportunity to make another sale
when he received a communication
from an out-of- town buyer asking for
particular grade of tobacco
jackson informed West of the COM
munication and was told that there
was a supply of the desired tobacco
on hand. Thereupon Jackson so in
formed his prospective buyer, who
came to the city to make the pur-
chase, calling first upon Jackson and
being taken by him to West. No sale
resulted at that time.
Two weeks later Jackson learned
that West had sold his buyer 10 cases
of tobacco and he thereupon made a
demand for his commissions. But
West refused to pay, claiming that he
himself had made the sale and that
Jackson had rendered his services
without request, the services being,
therefore, voluntary and gratuitous.
Jackson instituted suit. but lost his
case, the court declaring:
''One who renders services to an
other voluntarily is not. in the absence
of an express promise to pay therefor,
or circumstances from which a prom
Use will be implied in law, entitled to
compensation therefor

and inhale again. Go down and
breathe out again through the nose.
Repeat the exercise until you acquire
the knack of breathing in this way.
Another thing the beginner must
learn is to open his eyes under water.
Lie face down on the water with arms
above the head. Hold your breath
and open your eyes. Drift for Is or
20 feet in this position. II you are in
a swimming pool you can push off
from the side with a strong kick and
float across to the opposite side in
this position.
Water wings are a great help to the
beginner, although some swimming
instructors do not approve of them.
When you are learning the breast and
back strokes they are especially help
full, as they give the novice a feeling
of confidence in the water.

Patting the chin with a rubber pat

she calls at her grocer's for sample.

I'm sure it is, or-or you wouldn't

First Steps in Swimming.

To my mind every adult should be
able TO swim and every boy and girl
in school should consider it a duty to
learn. Once the technique of swim
ming is mastered one never wholly
forgets it. Although out Of practice
for many years, one who has been q
good swimmer can manage to keep
aflOat in an emergency.
Swimming is sport superior TO any
other for the promotion and preServa-
ton of health and beauty. The bene-
fits to be derived from its regular
practice are immense. The deep.
rhythmic breathing that is essential
to successful swimming stimulates the
circulation and strengthens ones mus
cular and mental capacity. Apart
from these considerations, the knowl-
edge of swimming is invaluable not
only as the means of preserving ones
life in case of need but also for rem
dering assistance to others in danger
of drowning.
In almost every section of the coun-
try there are facilities for learning to
swim, either in indoor pools or out
doors in streams or lakes. Profess
sional swimming instructors are sta
toned at many of these places. 1t
is better, of course. to have correct

ones self. One of my readers has in
quired whether there are correspon-
dence courses in swimming and has
asked me to publish such a course.
While it is possible to learn the prin-
ciples of swimming and the various
strokes from books, one is almost sure
to develop wrong habits and poor form
unless there is a competent instructor
present to criticize the strokes and
point out errors.
When no swimming teacher is avail
able, however, one may start accus-
toming ones self to the water; learn to
breathe correctly and begin a study
of the strokes. Sometimes a friend
who IS a good swimmer may be found
who can criticize ones technique and
give pointers on the art.
The very first thing to learn Is not
to be afraid of sinking. Lie back in
