On Wednesday A. C. Dixon, of the Wooth-Kelly Lumber Company, on behalf of his company and other Innocent purchasers, mill be heard in support of the measure.

Enactment of this clause, however, will give tllcse purchaser absolute title after one year. He then urged equities of claims of 4$ Innocent purchasers, who had ac quired more than a thousand acres of this land. Townsend said It waa his conviction that these purchasers at the time of acquiring lands from the rall roi&d company were not aware there was any claim upon their title and Inasmuch as they are now willing to come forward and pay the Government the stipulated price of t.iO an acre, he said they should be permitted to go lniO COUri ai"4 i .n i rrr jit.iiitx.iix ..x. then receive absolute title to their lands upon making this payment.

Secretary Says People Should Up hold Administration's Efforts to Place Nations on Finan cially Sound Bases. SAN FRANCISCO. May 7. Urging th neonle of the Pacific Coast to pre pare now for the trade opportunities In Central and South America which the opening of the Panama Canal will bring them. Secretary of State Knox, In an address here tonight at the an nual banquet of the California Develop ment Board, declared that three duties confronted the people of the West: To strengthen their commercial standing In the countries of the Caribbean through the efforts of capable repre sentatives; to provide transportation facilities for the expected Increase of trade, and to hold up the hands of the present Administration In Its efforts to develop the resources and commerce of those countries by placing them finan cially upon their feet. While painting a bright picture of the potential richness of the country to he brought by the canal to the doors of Psciflc ports. Secretary Knox warned his hearers that, so long as political disorder prevailed In those countries.' it was not to be expected that a commer cial development could be forced upon them. Strife Paralyse Iaduatry. "In those countries of Central Ameri ca where fraternal strife has left Its scars." he said, "we find practical paralysis of natural resources. The native agriculturist dares not produce more than the amount actually neces sary for his own consumption, or at the most that of his pearest neighbors, for the fear of conscription In times of war and the subsequent inevitable de struction or appropriation of his prop erty stares him in the face Regions of incalculable fertility now lying idle will soon hear the stimulating call of Improved transportation facilities for their products, if only domestic tran quillity and financial stability enable them to heed that call. "Foreign merchants resident In these countries cannot. In the face of im pending revolutions, with prudence commit themselves to mercantile pur chases for future delivery which may arrive when the country is in the throes of such conflicts. Their trade is, therefore, limited, their negotiations relatively small, and their credit, under such conditions, seriously affected." Saa Domlnce Helped Practically. As an Instance of the difference be tween the commercial value of a coun try swamped with Indebtedness and a pountry made financially sound, Mr. Knox stated that the commerce of the Iominlcan Republic since the Unitd States had helped it to rid Itself of for eign Indebtedness, had trebled, though that assistance was given less than a decade ago. With -this policy pursued where needed In the countries about the Caribbean, and with the added Impetus given to trade by the. opening of the Panama Canal, Secretary Knox prophe sied a almilar development of markets for the products of the Pacific Coast. The foreign commerce of two of these countries, which by the opening of the Canal will become commercially tribu tary to the Pacific Coast ports. Colom-. bla and Venezuela, he placed at over $65,000,000. The opening of the Canal, declared Mr. Knox, will give the Pacific Coast an Immense, Immediate market In Central and Northern South America for wheat, flour, lumber, petroleum, machinery and dry goods.
