If any member of tlie Commercial club
rat to the luncheon of the municipal af
fairs committee yesterday with the Idea
that there U nothing worth while outside
the United State, that idea must have
keao dispelled by the address ot John Bar
rett, director general of the Pan-American
union, on "Omaha's and the Central
West's Interest In Our Foreign Hela
Hons."
"Argentina. wlUi a population ot 7,000,
N0O, last year bought' and sold t.m.m
! worth ot foods, which is 1100 per capita.
i greater per capita trade than that of
mar other Important nation of the world,"
aid Mr. Barrett, seeking to Impress his
(bearers with the Importance ot South
American trade. "This was (reater than
the entire trade ot Japan, with W,9tt),K
people, or of China, with ,, 000,"
I afillioaa la aaproveaaenta.
Rio Janlero, he said, spent 160,000,000 on
jn, single broad avenue through the city
sum nuiiNoi upon nuiuons upon iti oocss.
Wh Ova blc Brazilian ports spend more
on their harbors than does the United
States on its entire coast una. Buenos
lAyrea, with 100.000 people, the largest
lolty south of the equator, was once thirty
sxtllee from deep water, bat spent 190,004,-
M4 to bring deep water to her door and

wtarted. Their foreign trade has praet le
ad ly doubled in ten years and is yet very
rmall oom pared with wbat it will be.
Spleaald Race at People.
The people, he said, are not "dagoes;"
they are a splendid race ot men a new

Mr. Barrett repeated bis Idea expressed
at the Omaha club last night that toll
lee on the Panama canal should be
commerce.
"I wish," he said, "that every commer
cial organisation of the country would
bring pressure to bear on oongresa to
make the tolla-tow. Wo are not building
'the canal for revenue, but to increase
commerce. Congress )s so busy with
lother things that it la not studying the
canal question closely enough."
Oiaaka ta Bo Benefited. '
! Omaha business men should be as much
.'Interested as those of New Orleans or
San Francisco In the development - of

lapesker ssld, for while Omaha does not
get a dlreot benefit from foreign trade.
received a reflected benefit that si vital
t business. Cut off foreign trade,' he
Mid, and bora trade will languish.
Host of the stories of revolution In
Latin-America, according to Mr, Bar
rett, are duo to the enterprise of sensa
tional newspaper writers with whom the
country la Infested. In an area three
times the else of the United States, he
said, there hss been no important revolu
tion in fifteen years.

Writ Compels South
Omaha Election to
Be HeldThis Spring
Judge Kennedy yesterday ordered the
Iteu of a writ of mandamus compelling
the officials of South Omaha to conduct a
primary election' this spring. The offl
oisls have Interpreted th new charter
bill to mean that th election shall be
weld Jn mi, but th Judge rule that
it shall be bold this spring.
In tbs petition of Tom Hoctor end
others for a mandamus writ compelling
the South Omaha officials to hold a pri
mary election the constitutionality ot the
entire charter bill was attacked. Judgs
Kennedy did not pass upon th constitu
tionality of ths entire law, but only upon
the validity ot three sections which deal
with the election matter. He held that
the mandamus for a primary election was
all that waa In Issue at this time and held
that the sections which extend th terms
of the present officials for one year Is
Invalid because It is special legislation.
After th election the constitutionality
of th law will be tried out in th courts.
