Reports from Washington describe new treaties between Nicaragua and Honduras and related accords with Guatemala and El Salvador. The pacts aim to ease trade by eliminating commercial frontiers and require arbitration for disputes, potentially paving a path toward a Central American union under a shared arbitration mechanism. A second Honduras accord provides for boundary arbitration by a two-country commission, with Spain as arbitrator if no agreed method is reached.

As waters rise they cluster, weaker ants in the center, creating a solid raft larger than a baseball that drifts until reaching safe ground. The piece mixes other anecdotes and advertisements from the era.
