HOOVER WILL PAY VISIT TO ‘ANDESCHRIST’ Pilgrimage to Monument Is Expected to Lead to Good Will. BY HARRY FRANTZ I United Press Staff Correspondent ; ABOARD THE U. 8. S. MARYLAND, Nov. 23.—President-Elect Herbert Hoover’s plan to visit the “jphrist of the Andes,” towering 11.000 feet on the summit of the Andean Cordillera on the Argen-tine-Chilean border may prove the transcendental event of his entire tour of the Latin Americas. ; This monument is recognized universally as a symbol of international peace. The monument was erected by pbpular subscriptions in Argentina ahjd Chile and the movement for its erection was instituted by women’s organizations to commemorate the amicable settlement of ChileanArgentine boundary disputes. ; It is a forty-foot bronze statue of the Christ which stands out clearly on its dizzy pedestaL—sometimes wraithed in clouds and mist. ; The statue is situated a consi ierable distance above the TramAndean railway, which tunnels under the mountain, and the fact that Hoover intends to leave the train to see the monument universally will be interpreted as a gesture of sympathy with the international pfeace movement. A decade ago, William Jennings Bryan declared the establishment of the “Christ of the Andes” marked

See Arica Region BY JOSEPH L. JONES United Press Staff Correspondent SANTIAGO, Chile, Nov. 23.

Pan-American peace for half a century? On account of the efforts of the Washington government to bring about an agreement between Chile and Peru, the Tacna-Arica dispute is the outstanding question in which the diplomats of the United States are interested. The United States has been trying to effect a settlment of the Tacna-Arica dispute since 1922 and since diplomatic relations between the two countries recently were resumed at the suggestion of Secretary of State Kellogg, formal conversations looking toward an agreement have been going on at Lima, Santiago and Washington. It is understood that the conversations have taken the form of the

discussion of another plan to divide the territories in a manner satisfactory to both parties. Friendly in Peru BY W. A. FOLGER. United Press Staff Correspondent. LIMA, Peru, Nov. 23.—Political circles in Peru are awaiting Herbert Hoover’s visit with the keenest anticipation in the belief that it presages an impetus to the constantly friendly relations between Peru and the United States. Peru in recent years has been one of the chief supporters of the United States’(policies in Latin America and the American viewpoint in the functions of the Pan-American union. Peru is expected to contiue her support of the Washington government at the forthcoming InterAmerican arbitration and conciliation conference at Washington. Hoover on his visit here will find not only two boundary disputes in which Peru is involved. One is the Tacna-Arica dispute with Chile and the other is the boundary controversy with Ecuador.
Study Trade Problems BY LESTER ZIFFREN United Press Staff Correspondent. BUENOS aires, Nov. 2i.—Argentina’s present economic problems are so largely related to her growing trade with the United States that the visit of Herbert Hoover will be particularly opportune. The visit, it is hoped, will afford the American president-elect an opportunity to explain the American viewpoint on commercial questions in which there is now a divergence of opinion and to hear the viewpoint of Argentina. It will be the task of the Argen-* tine statesmen tc make it clear that Argentina’s outspoken criticisms of American policies, as voiced by former Ambassador Pueyrredon to the United States at the Pan-American conference in Havana, are the action of a candid friend rather than one hostile 1 to the United States.
