CHAPTER LII
LIFE IN SOUTH AMERICA

While the variety of conditions in South America makes any


treatment of this subject necessarily superficial, a few words beyond
those already said may not be out of place, since it is evident that for
the successful conduct of our trade many persons from the United
States must spend some years or reside permanently in the several
countries. From the descriptions given one should have a fair idea as
to climatic conditions in these and make an intelligent choice of
locality if any is offered. Some persons will be happy in warm Rio or
even in more tropical Pará. Others will prefer Andean heights, from
7000 to 14,000 feet altitude, the higher for persons with sound hearts
only. Most of the cities where one is likely to be stationed have a
fairly temperate climate, and good health conditions, except as
previously indicated.
In respect to social advantages there is considerable variety. In
general the smaller the city the greater the hospitality and the more
will one’s society be cultivated, as is true in the United States also.
On the other hand in the important commercial cities, the English-
speaking folk are numerous enough to make an agreeable society
for themselves, and some South Americans have made the criticism
that the English and Americans hold aloof, apparently preferring their
own company: a mistake from a business point of view and also
nationally. One must, however, have the right qualifications for
cordial recognition anywhere. It has been stated of Buenos Aires that
the fact of membership in the diplomatic corps did not entitle the
gentleman and his family to more than official courtesies; to be
received socially he must be persona grata. This is true to some
extent everywhere. At the same time one who is at the head of a
large commercial establishment is more likely to have social
opportunities than members of the office staff, one of whom, a young
man of unusually good manners and attractive personality
complained to me in Lima some years ago, that he had no social
opportunities. It is different now. On the other hand a young dentist in
a city of Argentina where Americans are few associated with the best
people and married into one of the first families.
At the mining camps of the Americans provision is now made for
the social life of the employes and for exercise and recreation, also
by other large corporations. In general I believe that men enjoy the
life in South America better than their wives. Some of the latter
decline to go or to remain after being there a while: a great mistake if
they have any regard for their husband’s welfare, unless the care of
children or other serious matter compels their return. Many women
are perfectly contented, this depending in some degree on their
location, but chiefly upon their disposition. In the town of Sorata,
Bolivia, I chanced to meet one who seemed perfectly happy, though
she was the only English speaking woman in the place, or within 100
miles.
It is desirable for banks and business houses to give their young
men sufficient salaries to permit them to marry and take their wives
along. It will be better for both parties in the long run. Perhaps there
are no more temptations than in our own large cities, but in most
places there are fewer forms of wholesome recreation. Too many
men in cities and in mining camps have gone to pieces as they say.
Some men prefer life abroad for the reason that they feel less
restraint than in their native home or even in our metropolis, rather
than the responsibility which a real patriot should recognize of
presenting the highest American ideals of manners, conduct, and
business practices. If one cannot be contented without going
somewhere every night, except in Rio or Buenos Aires he might be
unhappy or worse. It would be well if persons everywhere had
sufficient intelligence to enjoy themselves at home with a good book,
a quiet game of cards, even cribbage; but especially books that are
worth while, valuable as literature or as containing information about
the world in general or on matters connected with business. “Movies”
are found almost everywhere; in the larger cities, theatres and a long
or short season of opera; clubs with opportunities for golf, tennis,
and other sports; often horse races. In smaller towns horseback
riding is a common, sometimes the chief diversion; but in such
places one sooner enters the social life of the community. Some
Americans say they would not take a wife to such a place, but if she
is wise she will go.
Punctiliousness in dress as well as in manners is more highly
regarded in South America than in the United States. Evening dress
is more general in large cities than in most of ours, and correct
afternoon dress for men is a more rigid requirement. Some persons
on important missions have astonished the Latins by their
negligence in this regard. Of course a gentleman is a gentleman the
world over and such an one will have no trouble. It is unnecessary to
imitate certain mannerisms of many South Americans, yet a little
more effusiveness is easily acquired and may be an improvement on
the coldness of the Anglo Saxon. It will be noticed that men regularly
lift their hats to each other, that they shake hands much oftener,
when you come and when you go, make more inquiries after your
health, etc. That they pat each other on the back, give mild hugs, or
at times kiss one another (not you), will perhaps not seem so terrible
as formerly, now that so much has been written about brave
marshals and generals kissing soldiers on both cheeks when
conferring decorations.
Courtesy must not be considered hypocrisy because phrases like
“The house is yours” mean no more than our remarks “I am glad to
see you” or “How are you?” though we may wish the caller in Africa
and have no real interest in his health. Not everywhere is the same
courtesy evident. On my first visit to La Paz in 1903 I noticed that
men frequently stepped from the narrow sidewalk into the gutter to
allow a lady to pass. More recently in a much larger city, still with
some narrow sidewalks, I frequently stepped into the street myself to
avoid crowding past a gentleman (?) who made no move to give
way.
The cost of living is an item of practical interest. Some remarks on
this subject have seemed to me exaggerated. Great diversity exists
in this respect in the different cities: the larger the more expensive,
as in the world generally. In most of the capital cities and chief ports
rents are high; in some places many articles of food are dear with
others cheap; similarly with dry goods and other articles, some
higher than in New York, others lower. Recent unusual conditions
have made sudden changes which may be repeated. Living
expenses were increased by the War, and on account of the influx of
foreigners for business houses. In 1916 rents in Buenos Aires were
lowered in the business centre; but they have now advanced to their
former price or higher. Years ago one of our diplomats there paid
more for his house rent than his entire salary on which others
perhaps have managed to live.
In remote sections, for instance in the Huailas Valley, Peru, in
1906, a sheep cost $1, a lamb 40 cents, a chicken 15 cents,
beefsteak, 9 cents a pound. The cook received $1.50 a month and
board. Fresh fruit and vegetables were almost given away. In Lima
then as now it was very different, some kinds of food were
expensive, others cheap. Coal and kerosene oil are dear everywhere
except in the Huailas Valley where coal is abundant with no market.
In Buenos Aires a few apartment houses and hotels have hot water
heating, but in many places in winter one freezes, or uses an oil
stove or an electric heater, the former the cheaper and more
effective.
Persons of adaptable disposition may spend a few years in South
America with pleasure and profit, returning with broader minds, and
with the ability to command higher salaries than if they had remained
at home.
APPENDIX I
POSTAL REGULATIONS

Much repetition is avoided and probably greater convenience


secured by presenting a summary of the Postal Regulations. All of
the South American Republics are members of the Postal Union. In
November, 1920, a Pan American Postal Federation was formed.
According to the convention adopted, domestic rates will apply to
letters, postal cards, and printed matter, among the various countries
of Latin America and the United States, as soon as they have ratified
the agreement. At present, October, 1921, this has been done by the
United States and by the South American Republics, Argentina,
Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, and Peru. To these the letter rate is two
cents, postal cards, one cent, return cards two cents; printed matter,
newspapers and periodicals, one cent for four ounces. The old rates
now effective in the other countries will doubtless soon be reduced,
and should therefore be investigated.
Parcel post service has been extended so that parcels weighing
up to 22 pounds may be sent to Argentina, Brazil, Colombia,
Paraguay, and Peru. To Ecuador 20 pounds is the limit; to Bolivia,
Chile, British, Dutch, and French Guiana, Uruguay, and Venezuela,
11 pounds is the maximum. The rate to all is 12 cents a pound or a
fraction thereof; except that to Paraguay, on account of transit
through Argentina, 30 cents additional must be paid for a parcel
weighing 11 pounds or less, and 60 cents for one above that to 22
pounds. In Brazil, this service is limited to Bahia, Bello Horizonte,
Curityba, Manaos, Pará, Pelotas, Pernambuco, Porto Alegre, Rio de
Janeiro (including Petropolis), Rio Grande do Sul, and São Paulo.
Parcels are subject to customs duties, and these with other details
should be investigated. Parcels may be registered for Bolivia, Brazil,
British Guiana, Chile, Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, but not for the other
countries.
Money orders may be sent to Peru, Bolivia, and Uruguay.
Changes resulting from the Pan American Postal Congress at
Buenos Aires in 1921 will be inaugurated January, 1923 or earlier.

Cable Facilities

On the North Coast, Cartagena has direct cable connection with


Colon and so with New York. To Puerto Colombia a cable has been
laid, which, however, December, 1921, has not yet been opened. A
French company has a line from Salinas near Pará to Cayenne,
Paramaribo, and Martinique, another from La Guaira, to Curaçao,
and Santo Domingo. The Venezuelan Government has its own cable
along the coast from Maracaibo, to La Guaira, Barcelona, and other
points. A British line connects Georgetown, Guiana, with the Port of
Spain, Trinidad.
The West Coast is connected with North America by three lines of
the All America system: one from Nicaragua and two from Panamá
to Santa Elena, Ecuador, one of the latter by way of Buenaventura
and Esmeraldas. The three lines continue south to Callao, one
touching at Paita. Two go on to Iquique and Valparaiso, one touching
at Antofagasta, while a branch comes north from Iquique to Arica to
make connection with La Paz. A cable of another company from
Callao touches at Mollendo, Arica, Antofagasta, La Serena,
Valparaiso, and Concepción.
The East Coast is connected with the cables of the West Coast by
three private wires of the All America Cables over the Andes from
Valparaiso to Buenos Aires, so that they can handle messages to the
Argentine metropolis, 7452 miles from New York, by automatic
methods in 15 minutes. Another cable company has a land line from
Valparaiso to La Plata, where connection is made with its Trans-
Atlantic cable to Africa and Europe. Both companies have short lines
to Montevideo, the focus of the East Coast lines. From here the All
America has a cable to Santos and one to Rio de Janeiro. The other,
the Western Telegraph, has one to Chuy, Uruguay, thence to Rio
Grande do Sul, Santa Catharina, Santos, Rio de Janeiro, Bahia,
Pernambuco, Fortaleza, Maranhão, and Pará, Brazil; and one from
Chuy direct to Rio de Janeiro and Pernambuco. Four cables from the
latter port connect with Africa and Europe. The Western Telegraph
was to lay a cable from Maranhão to Barbados, there to connect with
the Western Union line to Florida. The All America expects to lay a
cable from Cuba south to Rio de Janeiro. The Amazon Company
has a cable up that river from Pará.

Metric System

The Metric System of weights and measures is legal and official in


all the Republics and obligatory in most, in Argentina, Brazil, Chile,
Colombia, Peru, and Venezuela. In the other countries and in some
of these, the old Spanish measures (Portuguese in Brazil) are more
or less used, but these differ in the various countries and are
nowhere like ours. Always to employ the metric system is highly
important and in the above mentioned countries necessary, though
for shipping to some, the weight in pounds must also be given. In
Chile the use of other weights and measures is prohibited; also in
Uruguay, where their importation is forbidden.
