LEADING MEN Come from the west dis cusses SOUTH AMERICA OF FERS TROPHY CUP FOR FOOT BALL TEAMS OOF OREGON, WASHINGTON AND IlQpO, o Hon. John Barrett, director of the bureau of AmericQrepubllcs, spoke to Q;r six hundred students and townspeople In Vlllard Hall at the Oitverslty last night. His subject . .,a"V:..,lfl,. Uqd It, fifnrp was: wnai urai-iin. " for the State ana the People of Ore gon rt He said in part: 'There hero are three reasons why I am proud to address you tonight. First, as one who has kept his residence in this State for nearly twenty years, since I first came west from New England, I am proud to have the op portunity of meeting my fellow citi zens whom I h3 always tried to represent faithfully as their minister abroad or as their officer at Wash ington, f'cond, as the head of a great International Institution ' de voted to the development of com merce and friendship among Ameri can nations, 1 am proud to be able to Interest you In its worW which can do so muciot only for"he benefit thin stnt hut. f the entire coun ty. Third, as one who bslievthat uregun can piay jutsi. ua luiiiutimu c part as any other state of the Union In shaping both national and inter national, aifclrs, I am proud to point out to youWays and means by which Oregon may be recognized not only at home but abroad as one of the leading states of the Union. "Before, however, I proceed any further, permit me to make a per sonal statement which may cause you to give more heed to what I say than you otherwise would. Some of my fellow citizens In Oregon have seen fit to intimate that I am not to be classed as a real Oregonian, because of the faot that 1 had been absent from the state so much of the time during last fifteen years. Now my ans"r is, that I should be re garded as all the more entitled to full credit as(Ji Oregonian because such absence has been entirely In the service of thr state and the nation, In a constant effort to build up our prestige, influence, and commerce abroad. Had I stayed at home, I could not have accomplished one hundredth part as much for Oregon and the country 'In general. Oregon has just as much right to a voice In the administratis of our foreign af fairs as she has in our Internal ad ministration, and it certainly is not posslbleQjor an Qeygonian to go abroad in a diplomatic, position or hold a high administrative office Ir Washington, and at the same time remain Athin the confines of his "tate. iTo, I contest with any man in Oregon a clearer right to be called a citizen of this grea.' commonwealth. Tonight I shall present to vou (Jmo new and important futs O"'- in me scope or my suujeciT nnat the PacifioQpcenn has in stcte for Oregon." During the last te.Vyears nearly all' the discussion here and throughout the United States re garding the Pacific, has concerned our opportunities and responsibili ties in Japan, China, the Philippines, and the rest of the Orient. That Is a magnificent field, and we should be unremitting in our efforts to de velop our commerce with it. There are several indreds of mi'fphms of people Just m-ross the ocean rrom us. and their total foreign trade amounts to two billions of loddars, ($2,000. A'0,000) per annum, of which the 3a7.are of the United States is yet al together too small, but the Orient presents problems of competition. JJof demand and supply, the solution oi wnirn, and me eiiects tnerei. no man can now foretell. In contrast to this vast Oriental field. I desire to call your attention to the greater ancjpaiore pleasing op portunities appearwig to tne united States in the twenty ambitious re publics just south of us. We have been so occupied here on thii coast with the study of the Orient, and they have been so taken up on the Atlantic coast wffili watching Eurone. that our whole country has noglect- ed (H)i one spleadld field and market In me wide wis! Id which should be ours above 1 others. In this con nection let me iCy t out to you some saiientc-iut generally unappreciated facts.

I make this com rut ri- Chlna 'I admire Japan for her won derful record and China for her re markable characteristics, but I am trying to Impress upon you that, at the same time we are doing every thing we can to promote our com merce and friendship with the Orient we should not neglect our own oistar republics. "The figures I have just given you apply to the entire twenty republics of Latin America, reaching from Cu ba and Mexico south to Argentina and Chile. Now let me emphasize the importance of the twelve republics bordering on the Pacific ocean and therefore our close neighbors. They -.jd Mexico, Guatamala, Salva dor, Honduras, Nicaragua, iosta Kica, Panama, Columbia, Ecudor, Pe ru, Bolivia and Chile, having a coast line on the Pacific of nearly six thousand miles and aJyady having a population of tweniY million- .. people, W nearly five times that of our three Pacific Coast states of California, Oregon and Washington. Although they are In the infancy of their material development and their coasts have been Isolated from Eur ope and our Atlantic coast, they con duct an annual foreign trade valued at the splendid total of six hundred and fifty millions of dollars, ($650, 000,000). Certainly such facts as these demonstrate their importance but yet our country, and particularly this coast, has done too little to get into closer touch with this section of the western hemisphere. "If you were to make a Journey down the west coast of Mexico. Ceijj trai America auu ouui.ii rtuic,iv- j w would be astonished at the evidence everywhere of material progress and development. It is no exaggeration to predict that during the next twen ty years this part of the world will have an onward movement that will astonish everybody. There is a field for the Investment of hundreds of millions of dollars. Railroads must be built in the interiors.- Mines must be Qmed up. Agricultural sections must be populated and irrigated. New towns must be built. The num erous harbors and ports must be dredged. Immigration must be en couraged and transcportation facil ities improved. While these things are being done, as they surely will be before or soon after the comple tion of the Panama Canal, Oregon and the entire Pacific coast should be acquainting themselves with this field, developing friendly relations with It, studying the demand and supply of its markets. Its buying and selling capacity, and, in short, ways and means of bringing about mutual benefits alike-to the North and the South "American Pacific Coast. "At the Trans-MIssisslppi Congress recently held in San Francisco, I had the honor to propose that there should be held on this coast next year a a Pan-American Pacific ComrA'rcfal Conference, to which shouQbe Invited representative busi ness men from the twelve Pacific Coast countries of Latin , America. For the success of such a meeting Oregon should co operate with Cali fornia and Washington. When the delegates come, representing as they will their governments and peoples, they will want to know what can do here and what we have to sell. They must be taken on a journey of inspection to all parts of the Pacific Coast, and such a journey must in clude a trip through Oregon and a visit to your own progressive city of Eugene. "Let me prophesy, with full confi dence, that the next ten years are going to be a Latin American decade, when all the world will stand In won der before the progress of our sister republics. As an Oregonian, I want to see our state one of the first to recognize the Importance of this field and so gain the moral prestige and commercial advantage that will come therefrom. As akin to this thoiighI want the State of Or.egon and your city, to take particular interest in the work of the International Bur eau of American Republics, not only because 1, as an Oregonian, am at the head of it. but because it can pro vide you with a vast amount Qf in formation concerning tnese southern republics.
