500 tributaries-it is a place where
yesterday, today and tomorrow con-
verge as far as transportation
facilities are concerned. Barranquilla
Is to the Magdalena what the city OF
New Orleans is to the Mississippi
River and we thrilled, as we viewed
the vast volume of shipping OF
which it is today the center, to think
that the engineering firm of the
late Charles A. McKenney of this
city was the one whose skill and
enterprise made possible the initial
dredging, that proved to be the open
sesame to new commercial frontiers
The terminus of the river traffic
to the rich interior Of Colombia
Barranquilla is also the starting
point for the steamers and sea
planes which carry travellers up the
Magdalena toward Bogota, Colom-
bias Andean plateau capital
Almost simultaneously we glimpsed
an up-to-the-minute airplane start
ing off toward Bogota, a rear paddle
wheel, wood burning steamer bear
ing into port, looking as If 1t were
a copy of "The Show Boat" and
an American-make truck passing a
donkey train, the donkey train CIV
ing not an inch to the motor driven
conveyance.
Another citizen of the United
States who has had vision in regard
to the tremendous natural resources
Of Colombia awaiting development
in the vicinity of Barranquilla, Is
Jesse Knight Of this city and OF
Utah.
Water System Developed.
OF interest to those of us of the
United States too, is the fact that
Barranquilla' s sanitation and water
system, one of the best in all South
America, and much of its present
suburban development, are largely
due to mining engineer from
Iowa-Karl C. Parrish Of Des
Monies. With his college ROOM
mate, James Harvey, and a group
of American investors, he likewise
foresaw the possibilities of this city S
rapid development, and time has
justified the wisdom of their judg-
ment.
Because Of my husbands interest
in the financing Of reasonably
priced housing, we spent an inter
esting morning in Barranquilla's
thoroughly modern suburb, Ell Prado,
where We visited several of the more
modest-cost homes, their new own
ers having exactly the same pride
in their up-to-date features that
would be the case in our immediate
midst. They were even going in for
modernistic, American-made furni-
ture, too. Most of these essentially
domestic and livable houses are not
built about a courtyard and fiat to
the street, Spanish style, but back
from the sidewalk, and with gardens
to the front and rear after the FASH
ion OF our community developments
in the United States.
Barranquilla is the port from
which millions of bags of coffee are
shipped to one of our great United
States chain store concerns, the
Santa Rosa's passengers dizzily feel
ing as II they had seen of this
amount 60 aboard as the seemingly
endless procession of bags was con-
veyed into her hold by human labor
as we'll as by the most up to date
loading machinery.
OF tremendous interest to us all
was the distinguished Colombian,
DR.. Alfonso Lopez. former president
of Colombia and brother of Colom-
bias present minister to the United
States, who boarded the Santa Rosa
at Barranquilla for a four months
sojourn in our country.
Distinguished in bearing, modest

slender and erect, and with much
more the presence of an eminent
lawyer or physician, than that of
the traditional South American dip
lomat, DR.. Lopez mingled freely
with his fellow passengers, and
served as one Of the judges for the
ships costume party following the
captains dinner.
