TnE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, JANUARY 29, 1922
REQUEST
Voice in Treaty Declared Up
to Chile and Peru.
WHOLE ACTION EXPLAINED
President of South American Re
public Informed United States
lias No Say.
WASHINGTON. D. C, Jan. 28. The
request of the Bolivian government
for representation in the forthcom
lng treaty of Ancon conferences in
Washington between Peru and Chile
has been refused with regret by Presi
dent Harding.
In his reply, which was made public
today by the state department, Mr.
Harding said that the matter of Bo
livia's participation in the conference
la a matter for the exclusive consid
eration of the two governments con
cerned, and that in the circumstances
lie was precluded from taking the ini
tiative recently suggested by the Bo
livian government.
The president's message was In re
ply to a telegram received from presi
dent Saavedra of Bolivia January 21,
which contained an appeal in the
name of the Bolivian people that the
president listen to the claims of Bo
livia and call that country to meet In
conference with representatives of
. Chile and Peru, so that Bolivia might
le considered a constituent part in
Solving Pacific problems.
Reply Is Made Public.
The text of President Harding's re
ply to President Saavedra follows:
"I have read with great interest
your excellency's telegram, of January
21, eloquently expressing your coun
try's aspirations to secure an outlet
to the sea, which was lost as a con
sequence of the war of the Pacific,
and of its desire to secure a modifica
tion of the terms of the treaty entered
Into with the republic of Chile in 1904.
"Your exceLlency asks that In the
hearing given to the dispute that
Peru and Chile wish to submit to me
I will listen to the claim of Bolivia
and call your country so that It may
he considered as a constituent part
In solving the case of the Pacific. In
reply I beg to explain to your excel
lency that the invitation which I had
the honor to address to the govern
ments of Peru and- Chile does not
contemplate a hearing before me or
before the government of the United
States of the matters In controversy
between thoee governments.
Invitation Is Explained.
"Having noted In the telegrams re
cently exchanged directly between the
governments of Chile and Peru that
the idea of a meeting of representa
tives of ttie two countries for the pur
pose of reaching a settlement of the
difficulties growing out of the un
filled provisions of the treaty of An
con, either directly or by arbitra
tion, seemed acceptable In principle
to both, 1 invited them to send rep
resentatives to Washington for this
purpoxe. This invitation, I am happy
to state, has been accepted, and I
am informed that representatives of
tho.. two countries will soon be ap
pointed to meet In Wastiington for
the purpose of arriving at a settle
ment or a means of settlement by di
rect negotalttona between themselves.
"Your excellency will readily
Understand from the foregoing that
Inclusion of Bolivia In the discuB
alon of the questions at issue between
the governments of Peru and Chile
Is a matter for the exclusive consider
ation of the two governments con
cerned and that in the circumstances
1 am precluded from taking the in
itiative you suggest.
Sentiment Is Appreciated.
"I deeply appreciate the friendly
Sentiments of your excellency's tele
grams and beg to assure your excel
lency of the great interest of the
government and the people of the
United States In the welfare and pros
perity of tho country over whose des
ptinics you so worthily preside.
"I beg your excellency to accept
the assurance of my highest respect
and consideration. V
"WAKKEN O. HARDING.
In his message to President Hard
ing, the Bolivian president declared
Bolivia had been unable to gain the
ear of Peru and hile. In the matter
of its aspiration for a route to the
sea and added:
"My country's Insistent protests
have been answered by Chile involv
ing the text of the treaty of October
20, 1904. by which Bolivia transferred
to it the sovereignity over her whole
const. But the treaty of 1904 was not
a free spontaneous act."
Intercourse Held Needed.
There is no people, no matter how
unfortunate, who will cripple their
own sovereignty, who will, of their
own free will, give up intercourse
with the other peoples of the civilized
globe through the vehicle of all hu
man commerce, the ocean. In order to
bring this about, the exertion of a
very powerful pressure, must
necessarily be presumed. That is Just
what' was the pact of 1904. the out
come of a war unjust In its origin
and unequal in its progress.
"Bolivia from her traditional respect
for her International engagements
would clnim nothing usjiier these or
like circumstances If that treaty un
der which Chile shields her acquired
rights represented if not a relation of
perfect Justice, at least a situation
that my country could bear. But that
treaty not only Is unjust because its
cuts a whole people from free con
nection with the ocean, -which they
had from the day they were born to
autonomous existence but as an en
forced decision. It will forever be a
source of uneasiness and unrest to the
peace of South America, for as long as
Bolivia Is not reinstated in the terri
tory of. which she was despoiled. . It
will keep stirring the conscience of
the world with her demands that jus
tice be done in her case."

"A representative of the University
of Illinois came here and saw 'Dope'

offering inducements for him to enter
Illinois, although he knew Simpson

"These boys did nothing wrong.
They came down here to help 'us out.

JUNIOR WEEK-END ISSUE
EXPENSES OF EVENT TO BE
REDUCED THIS YEAR.
Student Officials at Oregon Re
ject Plunto Select Best of
High School Scholars.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene,
Jan. 28. (Special.) The plan for se
lecting the best scholars and athletes
in Oregon high schools as Junior
week-end guests was definitely
turned down at a meeting of the
presidents of the fraternities and
sororities. The plan was proposed as
a solution to so-called Junior weckr
end evil.
However, the heads of the organi
zations expressed the opinion that the
number of week-end guests should be
limited, but that the organizations
should be allowed to select their own
guests instead of having the greater
Oregon committee choose them.
It Is probable that the Baring event
will be shortened this year to Friday,
Saturday and part of Sunday, in order
to cut down expenses.
Many of the representatives were
In favor of the strictest economy in
giving tho week-end activities. The
curtailment of the canoe fete was
considered. The plan most generally
accepted was that junior week end
be carried on as a social function,
and the high school students given a
chance to observe the work of the
university students through exhibits
in each of the departments and
schools. It was voted to have another
meeting of representatives of the fra
ternities and sororitie. which are vi
tally interested in the Junor week-end
problem, in order to substitute a plan
for the one turned down.
MR. HARDING IS PRAISED
t
Recommendations of Parley Are
Indorsed by J. R. Howard,
American Bureau Head.
WASHINGTON,. D. C. Jan. 28. The
natibnal agricultural conference,
which closed last night after adopt
ing recommendations designed to al
leviate farm " depression and prevent
recurrences of such a condition, was
hailed as "the most far-reaching con
ference of farmers ever held" In a
statement Issued tonight by J. R
Howard. president of the American
farm bureau federation.
The conference recommendations
were Indorsed by Mr. Howard tonight
and were made the basis of study by
Secretary Wallace and other officials
upon whom will devolve tho task of
making them effective.
Referring to President Harding's
suggestion in opening the conference
that the farmers seek to unite In co
operative organization, Mr. Howard
said:
"The farm bureau will undertake to
organize all the farmers and unite
them Into strong commodity market
ing associations which will improve
the distribution of food to the lasting
benefit of both consumer and pro
ducer. We want to bring the eater
and the grower closer together.
Harding's Address Praised.
"The agricultural conference will
go down into history as the most far
reaching conference of farmers ever
held. The topmost feature, of course,
was the address of the president of
the United states and the commit
ments which it contained of the ad
ministration's attitude toward agri
culture.
"Probably no chief executive of the
nation has previously indicated so
deep and so Intelligent an interest in
the farmers' affairs. - President
Harding recognized the bad state of
agriculture; stressed the outstanding
importance in agriculture in our na
tional life; showed that the farmer
must have a credit system adapted to
his needs; asserted that lasting im
provement Is to come only through
the development of co-operative mar
keting; favored a scientific limitation
of production and pointed out the
dignity of the profession.
Real Service Seem Ahead.
"The co-operative marketing move
ment as fostered by the American
farm bureau federation is a protest
expressed in action against excess
margins and distributive costs. It is
no new thing. It has been carried
on successfully in Europe for hun
dreds of years. Within less than BO
years, Denmark, through co-operative
marketing, has reduced -distribution
costs so that the producers re
ceive 72 cents of the consumers'
dollar more than twice as much as
we get here, and through co-operative
marketing has rebuilded her en
tire national prosperity.
"Secretary Wallace comes out of
the conference with his hands greatly
strengthened to perform a real and
definite service for agriculture and
the. nation. Particularly notable in
the Indorsements of the conference is
tho farmers' demand for early com
pletion of the St, Lawrence deep
waterway, the development of Muscle
Shoals by Henry Ford, the building
of a credit machine adapted to a
farm turnover at reasonable rates of
interest and the farmers' demand that
both capital and labor must share
alike in the readjustments which have
already hit agriculture.
