can spirit of solidarity?a spirit which

should embrace in its understandings''

and good feeling the republics of all

the Americas?is suffering deserves

serious consideration. That an anti-

American propaganda is fostered b?

foreign missions in Latin America,

and that such incidents as the Span

ish-American war -.nd the Haitian

and Dominican occupation, are en

larged upon to the detriment of this

country's reputation are matters of

common knowledge among naval offi

cers who have studied the situation

kt first hand.

In addition, military men play ft.

strong and influential part in the gov

ernment of many of the Latin Ameri

ean republics. Many military leaders

are chosen for the highest administra

tive positions in the civil govern

ments. And it is a logical conclusion

that the country which has "brought

up" the army and navy of a young

republic will occupy a position of

peculiar prestige among its officials.

Its business men will be welcomed,

itsi trade solicited. A great part of

South American business is trans

acted on friendship and understand

j ing. This friendship and understand

j ing are engendered by military an?f

j naval missions.
