Ilf'RNOS AIRRS. For the past
Ir> years a sizable No Mali's Land
hi the Pacific Ocean has awaited
some nation to formally take poss
ession of it.
This No Man’s Land is known a?
Raster island and is situated 2bb0
miles off the Chilean const. P
was discovered in 17fl2 hy the
Dutch navigator Roggeveen. but ex
cited so little interest that it was
left for Peru to settle- it. and it
‘apparently lav at the tnercy of the
first comer until 1888. when Clstl
ean expedttionaries took possession
I It has remained nominally a Ciiil
1 can possession ever since.
In January of this year, how
, ever, a diligent searcher in the
Chilean foreign office archives
made the startling discovery .that
the island had never been formal
ly incorporated in the Chilean do
minion. in effect, that it had been
occupied by Chileans but not by
Chile. Proceeding with the great
■ si secrecy. President Alessandri’s
government promptly remedied this
oversight, with the reauP that
Raster Island is a No Man's 1 and
no longer. It is definitely Cliil
ean. *.
It is too late now for the “im
perialists” of any nation to fegj
anything beyond regret that tney
knew nothing about the matter.
Raster island at one time wa =
the seat of a civilisation of which
the modern world knows little or
nothing. It is to gather Inform i
tion on this head that a French
scientific mission is on its way to
the island aboard the French
| scout-ship • Rigault de Oenonlllv.
iyhich recently made a halt at Bne
nos Aires on its voyage to tP
! island.
Raster island is remarkable for
the possession of \U\one than
stone idols, some of them 36 fee
high. Little so far has been leu ru
ed of tile religion professed by the
builders of, these idols or of the
life they lived. Their dese nd
ants are a dying race. In Is 7b
they numbered approximately Tt00H
but today thei run miters have re
duced to a few hundred. They
have a-language of their own (-’I
Polynesian derivation)- and they
live isolated from the world ex
