I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

- OASI_101029_513.JPG: This building is the home of the Pan-American Union,
the official international organization of the twenty-
one American republics, which is maintained by their joint con-
tributions; controlled by a governing board composed of the Secretary
of State of the United States, who is its chairman ex-officio, and the dip-
lomatic representatives in Washington of the other American republics;
administered by a director-general chosen by this board; and dedicated
to the development of friendship, good understanding, commerce, solid-
arity and peace among them all, and to the diffusing of useful information
about each among all. This building was erected through the co-operation
of all the republics and the generosity of Andrew Carnegie. During the period
of its inception and construction from 1907 to 1910, when the Pan-Ameri-
can Union was known as the Bureau of American Republics, Elihu Root
was the chairman of the governing board; John Barrett, director;
Francisco J. Yanes, Secretary. The architects were Albert Kelsey and
Paul P. Cret; the constructors, Norcross Brothers. The cornerstone
was laid May 11, 1908, and the dedication was celebrated April 26, 1910.
