44 the primitive inhabitants of Lacio, Gaul and other points able to restrain the biologic movement of mankind? They were not; just as it was not possible for Colombia to prevent itself from being severed in twain by the Canal, and it would, likewise, be difficult for Central America to prevent the human waves from pursuing their restless flow and constant transformation.

In the new world, the union of races and nations will be effected in pursuance of the evolution now in progress in the United States. The work began there; it is going on even in the Argentine Republic, and it is already seeking new lands and frontiers for expansion and perfection.
CONCLUSIONS.
The following subjects should be discussed and decided in a new congress composed of representatives from the United States, Mexico, Guatemala, Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama, viz. The establishment of a Permanent Court of Arbitration in Washington, Boston or Philadelphia, composed of three judges and three substitute judges, to be elected by the Senate of the United States. The duty of this court shall be to adjust all questions arising between the signatory countries. The judges to be elected must be citizens of the United States. If the United States be a party litigant, the matter should be decided on review by a European court of arbitration upon the application of one or more of the republics interested.
