 "The men themselves have rem edy for the few who try to skip the bathing schedule. It's a good scrubbing with sand, applied with a canvas mitten. The results are miraculous; after one application, the man never seems to get dirty again."
 Due mostly to the same crowded conditions, he continued, the Navy always have been purely democratic. But even the amount of discipline we do impose is a little hard sor some of the boys to take.

Chile Is Reported
Considering Gift
OF AFRICA 10 Bolivia
Effect Would Be to Woo
Ia Puz Government From
Orbit of Argentina
BY ALLEN HADEN,


chicaGo Daily News Foreign CORRESPONDENT.
SANTIAGO, Chile, March 2 by
Clipper Land locked Bolivia may
at last get her coveted outlet to
the Pacific.
The Beau Geste" on her part Of
Chile that this cession would in
volve has not yet ripened into Of
fetal discussion. But, say circles
close to the government, the matter
was the main object of the recent
visit to Peru and Bolivia by Chile's
Foreign Minister, Manuel Bianchi.
Binachi's reported scheme is this:
Bolivia would be given Chile's
northernmost port of africa and with
it a strip of land adjoining the 300
mile railway from the coast to La
Paz, Bolivia's capital.
africa is Bolivia's logical and only
practical exit to the sea. The rail-
way runs through worthless desert
land that Chile won in war with
Peru and Bolivia 60 years ago.
Cause of Chaco War.
SllllC WOulO 4lOill lIlC pldll
by Wooing Bolivia from the orbit
of Argentina-a feat of major diplo-
matte importance since it would be
accomplished virtually without cost.
Bolivia has had free port facilities
at africa since 1904. Still the lack
of her own sovereign port has always
been a severe handicap Many
authorities agree that this lack was
a leading cause for BoliviaS entry
into the Chaco war with Paraguay
in 1882 With no exit of her own
on the Pacific. she sought an outlet
to the Atlantic via the River Plate
system.
But the Chaco peace treaty netted
Bolivia no more than a small port
north of Bahia Negra and a free
port facilities at Puerto CaSado on
the Paraguay Rivera much costlier
route than that to africa.
AT the recent River Plate con-
ference, Bolivia'S chief demand was
for free transit to the Atlantic
through Paraguay. Argentina and
the Uruguay-even in Wartime-of
any merchandise. including NUM-
tions. In the Chaco war Bolivia
was refused the right by Chile
and Argentina to import certain
key war materials.
africa Costs Chile Money.
Actually her port at africa has
been costing Chile money, for Bo-
livia is behind in paying its share
of expenses and Chile's section of
the railway shows only a slight
operating profit. When a price for
the railway was set, Bolivia could
pay in ore payments.
The deal, if it comes of. will be
a triumph for Bianchi and Chiles
able President, Dr.. Pedro Aguirre
Cerda. who could easily persuade
the liberal parties controlling the
government that the gesture was
justified.
In africa harbor lies the island
rock, Ell Moro. The scene of ro-
mantle episodes in Chilean history,
1t would, of course, be retained by
Chile. But when Bolivia at last
had her port. FL Moro would be-
come symbol of smart diplomacy
and new understanding between
countries-the sone
landlocked, the other with more
than the normal share of coastline.
