FOURTH Congress
AT BUENOS AYRES
ANNOUNCEMENT MADE TODAY
THAT NEXT PAN-AMERIcAN
MEET WILL BE HELD
IN JULY.

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE fourth
of series Of great conferences that
are steadily strengthening the bonds
between the republics of the western
hemisphere is to be held in Buenos
Ayres. Argentine Republic, between
July is and 20. next and already the
Argentine government, which is to be
the host in this case. has been doing
mucn to prepare for the meeting. The
date originally fixed for the Fourth
International conference Of American
states, was May 20, 1910, but the fact
that a great exposition was to be
held in the same capital in that month,
which might overshadow the impor-
lance OF the international conference,
led to the postponement Of the lat
ter. Moreover the month OF July, be-
ing in the middle of the Argentine
winter, is certain to make the visit to
Buenos Ayres more agreeable to the
delegates from the north.
The governing board of the Bureau
of American Republics already has
dispatched to every South and Cen
trail American capital a tentative pro-
gramme of the subjects to be consid-
cred by the conference.
