The map in the above layout graphically depicts the vast 50,000-square mile tract which affords Bolivia a valuable waterway to the Pacific. President Jose P. Guggiari of Paraguay issued a mobilization order recently after spirited fighting took place between the garrisons manning the forts that face each other on the imaginary boundary line across the center of the Chaco. With hundreds of millions of dollars invested in industries in both countries the world’s financial interests were pinning their faith ou the influence of the League of Nations. Five Western Hemisphere countries forwarded a plea for a suspension of hostilities to Bolivia. Both President Guggiari and President Dr. Salamanca of Bolivia declare that the armed forces of the other country provoked the skirmishes in the jungle. If mediation is accepted by Bolivia a similar petition will be sent to the Paraguayan executive. Four years ago the influence of other countries staved on a war between the two republics.
New York. — Hundreds of mil-. lions of American d liars invested ; in South America may be lost if the . bitter conflict between Paraguay and Bolivia continues. Thus it was with a great sigh of, relief that Wall Street'heard a few | diys ago that the League of Nations had acted to bling about a su.-pen-, sion of hostilities between the tw j South American lepublics. But meanwhile the war clouds blackened in the dispute over possession of the Gran Chaco territory. I President Jo.-e P. Guggiari of Para guay was summonning men, women and children of his mticn to stand ‘erect as cne man and help the fatherland" in the stiuggle. Hundreds of Paraguayan worn n in the town of Concepcion asked permis-j sion to take i<p arms in the fight, ; pledged themu-elvea not to use pow-| der, rouge or perfume until the “war" is won. While Guggiari was signing i mobilization decree, Bolivian soldiers were capturing two forts in Gran Chaco. Fierce fighting marked the offensive. The big peace hope of international financiers lay in Geneva. In 'both countries vast sums of foreign capit 1 are invested in railways and industries. Because the Chaco, a huge jungle is isolated. Wall Street believed a large scale war between the two nations quite unlikely. To hurry any sizable amount of munitions to the territory would mein importation through neutral countries. And the bankers pointed , out that such moves would be opiposed by neighboring ecuntries as well as the League of Nations. Chile could prevent Bolivia importing arms 'by merely barring arms shipments over her lines. The optimism was also based on the fact that though ths argument between IBclivii and Paraguay has existed for half a century, neither nation has ever actually declared

. war on the ether. Both countries lie inland. Bolivia i wants sovereignty over the Sw.noo i square mile jungle tract, portraying in map above, to grin access to the Paraguay river which would assort i a fluvial outlet for light drought steamboats via the Parana and Pl.te rivers. Judging fretn cold statistics, the j military strength, real and potential of the two countries is most dis- ' proportionate. Bolivia has 8,000 ac- ! five soldiers and a papulation of 12,974,900 and Paraguay maintains an army of only 2,915 and has 791,469 population. But the Paraguayans have -a reputation for feiociouo fighting. Since st ging a war against Argentina. Brazil and Uruguay in 1565, I the country has had many more woI men than men. In that costly war Paraguay lost 1,200,000 seldiers. Both countries concerned maintain fifty t'oits ficing gach other across an imaginary border line in Gran Chaco. Clashes between the soldiers in these isolated outposts have b:en frequent in the last half century. Four years ago war seemed imminent. But other mticns stepped in and fo:ced a temporary peace. However, today both Bolivia and Paraguay are in the midst of a militaristic frenzy. Interested bankers hetpe both nations mty ba brought to see that thV interests of both would be best served by an amicable adjustmen t cf their differI ences. Five nations —Utuguay, the United States, Colombia Cuba and Mex- ; ico—recently forwarded a request to the Bolivian President, Diniel Salamanca, asking that his cotini try submit the differences to arbitration. If Bolivia agrees the same i prcposal was to be made.to Preaii dsut Guggnrl of Paraguay. i The present trouble started in June, when a score of lives were I lost in outpost fighting in Gran
|chaco. Like bad children, each i country told the world that the I other power had struck the fit st ■ blow. —, o * Test Your Knowledge i i I : Can you answer seven of these j test questions?
