CANAL 0eHEN68 RLAN Uk3&1
II int going 10 b announced.
but Man propaganda IN South Amer
ica has upset U. s. plans for IN i'm
portant new base defending ths Pan
anna canal. Plans had been care
fully laid for commercial develop
ment Of IN island OF the coast Of
Ecuador. to be followed By naval
installations. But genial Jesse Jones
innocently let the cat out Of the bag.
and the Germans did the rest.
The island is known as Alber-
marie, in the Galapagos group. ly-
ing southwest Of Panama. q perfect
location for watching japanese ma
neuvers near the Pacific entrance Of
the canal. To inspect it Roosevelt
went fishing there three years ago,
when the U. s. s. Houston took him
on 4 Pacific cruise.
Roosevelt had heard about the
Galapagos since childhood. His
great-uncle, Capt. Amasa Delano,
put in at the islands on his voyages
to China. And his mother, as .
young girl, stopped there On 4 voy-
age to China
The President personally was re-
sponsible for the strategy of form
ing an American trading company
to develop Albermarle. He knew the
sensitive Latins, knew that 4 direct
proposal for building . u. S. naval
base would arouse the old enemies
Of yankee Imperialism, and that
the only safe way was to set up 4
company for the development Of fish,
ing and cattle. thus bring the navy
in edgeways.
Accordingly, the Pacific Develop
ment company was formed. incor-
porated in Delaware, and financed
with funds from the RFC. First it
got . credit Of so, 900. but later,
when . credit Of half q million was
extended, RFCzar Jesse Jones limo
Gently announced It 10 the press.
q Jesse Jones' Joke.
Apparently the naval stratagem
was such Z dark secret that even
Jesse, q member Of the cabinet,
didn't know about II. So he an
nounced It n nothing but . CONNER
cial development, because the il
land was owned not by Ecuador
but By . private individual And
then he added . little jest Of his
own.
"And Il you can spen the mans
name," said Jesse, ''I'n give you
the island. The name b pronounced
heel"
Up spoke 4 correspondent who
knows Spanish well. "You spell It
Gill" he said.
That's right" said Jones. Go
to the head Of the class"
No." said the newsman. Il want
the island"
''rn owe you the island" said
Jones. and everybody laughed.
But there was no laughter In the
navy department; for German prop
uganda, through short-wave radio
and local newspapers. stirred up the
old fear Of Yankee aggression, in
timating that a U. S. naval base
Oh the west coast Of South Amer
lea would make little puppets Of the
Good Neighbors for all time.
The propaganda was successful,
and the deal had to be cancelled.
It may be that the Pacific Devel-
opment company will still pursue its
livestock, fishing, and mining Of

cession, but President Roosevelt's
dream Of Panama defense base is
sunk.

forms such sadistlc operations
upon those dumb animals surely
cannot possess one noble trait OF
the creature they are torturing.

Editor,
N. Y. Journal-American,
New York City.
Dear Sir:
Referring to page Is of your
newspaper issue dated June Srd,
1871, on which appeared evidences
of wanton and extreme cruelty
inflicted on one of the most faith
full and companionable Of animals
known to man, the dog.
1t Is a wonder that such evil
dences OF cruelty, torture and
agony have not been published
and brought TO the attention OF
the public before this, and due
credit should he given your pub
LEGATION for bringing the subject
up now, even at this late day.
II IL common knowledge that
this merclless treatment Of help
less, defenseless and faithful
animals has been going on con-
tinuousiy without any lawful
penalty, on the part of so-called
scientific experimenters. who
should have their own brains ex-
amined TO ascertain II there are
any hum e characteristics In
their thick skulls.
Some years ago, i read in the
newspapers where these scientific
gentry taped the mouths Of dogs
and other animals that they were
cruelty experimenting on. in order
that the outside public would not
hear the cries of agony OF these
animals; this action deem
cruelty to the nth degree.
Besides, the poor animals are
10 trussed up that they are I'M
able to move q muscle.
Now In the name of God, can
a person supposedly human, COM
init such crimes against nature
are we reverting to the days OF
the Spanish Inquisition and the
dark ages:
What Is the matter with our
that they do not en-
act laws 10 prevent this cruelty,
also what about the Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty TO
Animals
Has the former nothing on Wis
mind but politics, and the Latter,
a commercially closed corporation,
incorporated under New York
state laws and possessing a char
ter under those laws, no duty to
the general public than gathering
in the dollars for licenses from
dog lovers from all walks of life,
rich and poor alike?
Is the s. p. G. a. handing over
TO these experimenters the un-
wanted dogs TO torture: II they
are, they should have their char
ter revoked by the state.
Some Of these cruel practices
are 30 raw, that they are revolt
ing to common decency, and are
entirely inexcusable and I'M
pardonable.
Why In the name Of the dear
Christ, Fount Of boundless mercy,
cannot this cruelty be stopped
now and finally.
Action speaks louder than
words; do not allow this matter
10 he one of temporary interest,
