lations always have been good. The United States is represented on the special international conciliation board to look into the recent Bo- livian- -Paraguayan border incident. The report of the commission prob ably will require some kind of dip lonatic action to bring the matter to close.
 Recent controversies with Colom- bia regarding legislation affecting and virtually confiscating foreign property rights which that govern ment threatened to enact have been for the time being at least, resolved by amendments to the proposed legislation.
 A controversy with Co.ombia re- garding the so-called Barco conces- sion, required by an American oil company, still drags on, however. The matter is in the national courts and hopes are entertained that the dispute may be settled satisfactor- fly through those channels. Other wise MT. Hoover would in this case again be confronted with a prob lem of rare difficulty.
 On Caribbean
 Tn the Caribbean generally the outlook is very promising for MT. Hoover. Only with Panama is there question ne,7ding, the re- placement of the treaty of 1903 fix ing the relations pesween the Unit ed States and the Panamanian Re- public.
 A treaty negotiated under MT Coolidge's administration was not ratified by the Panamanian legis- latlire and further negotiations will have to ensue. Since the treaty in question stipulates the basic sov- ereignty rights of the two coun- tries in and about the Canal zone the matter is difficult and impor- tart.
 
 Tn Haiti contIngenSs of Ameri. can marines still are stationed Mir Hoover will have to decide whethel he will continue the occupation ant possibly whether conditions in thu island will not warrant, at som, time during his administration, tn, withdrawal of the forces.
 Over all the individual prob]em which are likely to crop up witl tn eseparate countries, MT. Hoove has the general problem of obtain ing the senate's ratification of tn rnultilateral Pan-American treatie
 of compulsory arbitration and con
 ciliation signed here last January.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1929-03-05

Nicaragua needs foreign loan for the indispensable construction of highway or railroad connecting it's Pacific with it's Atlantic coasts. It will fall upon MT. Hoover to fa- cilitate the floating of such a loan on the international market.
 Finally Nicaragua always will hold special position in Americas Car ibbean outlook on account of the rights this country holds for the construction of a possible inter- oceanic canal, to parallel the Pana- ma cut, through it's territory.
 With Cuba, relations are tradi- tionally good. Movements of con siderable importance, however, have been started in that country to re- wise the reciprocity treaties between it and this country on the ground that the mutual reductions in tariff agreed to under the compacts arc beneficial to the United States and detrimental to Cuba. The movement is expected to increase in volume in the next year and probably vii fall on MT. Hoover to dispose of the matter.
 Cuban Sentiment
 Similarly, much Cuban senti-

with influencing public sentiment for industrial insurance. The Mas sachusetts legislators subsequently, rejected a bill attacking this form of insurance.
 Extraordinary Vigor
 Haley Fiske was a man of extra ordinary vigor. An admirer O. ''big, healthy fellows" he pridsc himself at past TO on being able to touch the ground with the palms of his hands without bending his knees. At that age he played an occasional set of tennis-as often as twice a week. Shortly before his 18th birthday he delivered four and a half hour address to his managers, reviewing the entire work of the Metropolitan.
 | He once said that there were three things that interested him most in his life: his work, his fam fly and his church.
 He was twice married. On Janu- ary 10, 1878, he welded Mary C. Mulford. She died in 1885. They had one child, Helen. On April 27 1887, he married Marione Cowles Cushman, by whom he had five children, Archibald F. O.. Ma~iore Virginia, Haley Jr., Katherine Cush- ma hand Margaret Lois He was m m Der and trustee of the Church of St. Mary the Virgin, New York City, and prominent layman in Protestant Episcopal Church cir cles. Noted bishops visiting Gotham from other dioceses frequently call cd on him. When Bishop Man ming led the campaign for millions to build the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, Haley Fiske was made

 naturalization
 Coincident with his stressing of the importance of health among industrial policy holders was his be- lief that tho company should be owned by those who had paid the premiums Naturalization brought this about in 1915. Previously, how ever, Haley Fiskc had made it pos sible for policy holders to share in profits of the company. The stock holders were limited by law to sev- en per cent dividends. There was large surplus undlstributed. Rea- soning there was no law against bonuses, he caused S49,0000O0 to be distributed as such among pol icy holders in nineteen years.
 Haley Fiske's service to the Met ropolitan was two-fold, executive and legal From 1873 to 1891 he was associated with the law firm of Arnoux, Ritch and Wooaford, counsellors for the Metropolitan. He became member of the firm in 1887 and was appointed vice presi- dent of the Metropolitan in 1891.
 Trial Lawyer
 He was a trial lawyer for the company. So slxillful and eloquent was he that he defeated the famous agnostic, Colonel Robert Ingersoll at the bar. In the case of Fuller vs Metropolitan, he saved the com pany from a demand for payment which would have wiped out it's capital.
 Legislative attacks, of which the investigation of the Massachusetts Legislature in April, 1895, was typi- cal. were launched on insurance of children It was said such insur- ance encouraged child murder. The whole system of industrial insur- ance was assailed and imperiled Haley Fiske championed it. Be- fore the Bay State legislature he delivered an address that was print ed in the Boston dailies at regular l advertising rates and was credited |

 And that's not the only American threat. Britain hears that the American Blue Ribbon Line" pro- lects the launching of group of marine whippets with a speed of B knots 70 maintain a four-day service between Plymouth and a Long Island port.
 The Cunard Line, however, al- though recognizing that the Maure- tania will sooE be outplaced, are not disposed to surrender the hon. ors. Shipping men are expecting an announcement for the laying of super -Mauretania' which may be of 63,0O0 tons and capable of 2S knots or better.
 The White Star Line which wants to transfer the token of supremacy to it's own masts, is already at work on a great ship. Their Super Olympic" was laid down at Belfast last summer. It will be a 60,00O ton vessel and may be able to make 28 knots.
 On successive days last August. the North German Lloyd pushed into the water two swift vessels of 46,0oO tons-the Europa and the Bremen. M < The French Line, which created in the He de France a new stand ard of ornate luxury, plans to ad- vance her bid for transatlantic custom by building a new vessel with 500OO tonnage and a speed of 27 knots. And the country of Mussolini is backing two entries, both of which, their directors be- lieve, will do 27 knots; one will be a 50,000 ton craft, the other smaller speedster of 33,00o tons.

ment has been stirred lately for the repeal of the Platt amendment of the Cuban constitution under which the United States retains the right of intervening in Cuban af- fairs should the stability in the is- land appear threatened Cubans claim that this nullifies their sov- ereignty and in this case also MT. Hoover probably will have to make a pronouncement before the end of his administration.
 In South America proper, Argen- tina is the country with which the most difficult problems are liable to arise for MT. Hoover's solution What difficulties are threatened are of an economic nature ant mostly due to the fact that bot Argentina and the United State belong to the temperate zone ar produce commodities which com into commercial competition witt each other.
 With the remains of South Anne ica, relations are almost ideal. Cor diality exists with Brazil, Uruguay Chile and Peru. The latter twf countries still have between then the problem of finally settling tht Tacna- Africa dispute and MT. Hoo. yer, as inheritor of his predeces sors responsibilities in the matter may have to exert his good offices in the future to help compose the quarrel.
