Eéitor’s Note: This is the ninth of a series of stories by Rodney Duteher, Washington correspond- ent for The Tribune and NEA Service, who accompanied Presi- dent-elect Hoover's party through Latin America. j ee Corinto, Nicaragua (By Mail)—The mest impressive thing to an American tailing into Corinto harbor, through which 65 per cent of Nicaraguan ex- ports leave the country, probably are | the two or three U. 8. navy seaplanes on the beach alongside rows of crude | native dugouts. | Few planes ore to be seen in this | part of the world. Conditions are not | yet ripe for rapid development of aviation. Most Nicaraguan business, for instance, consists of production and export of bananas and other fruits, coffee and cocoanuts and im- | portation of cotton cloth, iron, stecl, | machinery, meats, leather, shoes, au- tomobiles and chemicals. Neither the business situation nor the size or pop- ulation of Nicaragua justify use of airplanes except in a small military way. Much Like United States But here, as in the rest of Central America, one can find almost any- thing, on a modified scale, that one can find in the United States. Even the hotel in Corinto, the best en- countered by the Hoover party in this section, compares very favorably with many leading hostelries in larger North American cities. Despite experiences with our ma- rines, Nicaragua, potentially the rich-! est of Central American countries, shows a trend of thought and sym- Pathy toward the United States. Coming at a time when Nicaragua is awakening to new aspirations, this trend is resulting in increased busi- ness for American manufacturers, though the bulk is not large. ns Friendly to U. S. It might be noted here that in all Central American ca@untries visited by the Hoover party your correspondent talked with officials or leading citi- zens who confirmed reports of wide Latin-American resentment following our intervention in Nicaragua. The best they thought of our previous Nic- raguan and Mexican policy was that it was stupid; in Nicaragua, they held, | Decisions of t Supreme Court Anna Anderson, et al, plaintiffs and respondents -VS.- ‘United States Fire Insurance Com- pany, @ corporation, of the City of | New York, defendant and appel- lant. 1, A fire insurance policy upon an | ‘affects the title to real estate, and automobile containing this provision: | must be filed and recorded by the reg- ‘his entire policy shall be void ss otherwise provided by agree- it in writing added thereto: (2) If the interest of the assured the subject of this insurance be ‘er than unconditional and sole srship or in case of transfer or mination of the interest of the sured other than death of the as- sured, or in case of any change in the nature of the insurable interest of the assured in the property de- scribed herein either by sale or other- finda tar Me -< wise,” must thedigkt ie com- ot % ane the time the policy was is- ‘sued.

PFIRMED of Minot, N. Dak., attorneys for iboth the correct and the intelligent course was to recognize Sacasa instead of Diaz. But during Hoover's visit anti-Americanism appeared every- where to be at a low ebb. These peo- {ples are confident of Hoover's good in- tentions—and immensely flattered by his visit. Young men and women in the cities long ago began to pick up American and European styles. The girls who can afford them, however, say they can get their dresses much cheaper in Paris than from New York. The native ladies, of course, favor calico, with occasional prized “best” dresses of rayon or silk. The well-to- do men get their suits from England. British woolens are much cheaper than any that can be had from the states. Wines and liquors come from France and England. The natives make their own, but the product is shunned by the proprietary class. Like Sentimental Movies American movies compete success- fully with the French, German and Italian films, but Italian pictures are favorites also because the pro- ducers cram so much sentiment into them. Opera is the other favorite amusement and Nicaraguans still retain the waltz and tango, despite acceptance of American jazz and dance steps. Radio sets have just be- gun to come in, most of them being in clubs. There is no large immediate field for their sale because of lack of broadcasting facilities and inability of the masses to buy the expensive sets now necessary. But the market for American ma- chinery is on the rise, especially agri- cultural machinery. Also for steel and cement for new two and three- story buildings. The cities, one is ad- vised, are just beginning to adopt modern merchandising methods. But a few of the shop windows in one or two of the larger centers are demon- strative of the up-and-coming urge which seems to grip Nicaragua. Ample evidence of increased confidence in the nation’s stability is given by the decline in interest rates. Once up to 16 and 18 per cent, they are now down as low as 10 per cent, or even less. The same increased stability of the coun- try probably presages an increase in Ameritan investments, which are now found in Nicaragua's fruit industries, mining, railroad system and banking. receives an execution, signs his name thereto, and indorses on the back thereof “‘no personal property found,” and there is appended to such execu- tion a return containing in detail all the information the statute requires | on a completed execution, there is @ substantial compliance with the} statute. 3.
