RIVER PLATA is CENTER
OF OVERSEE COMMERCE
Foreign Trade Along Argen-
tina's Coast Is Expanding

All but small part of Argentina's
oversee commerce centers in the Rio
de la Plata, or river Plata The coun-
try has an Atlantic seaboard of more
than $500 kilometers (1,550 miles), ex-
tending from Cape San Antonio to
TERRA del Fuego. but the only port OF
any consequence in foreign trade along
this entire coast Is Bahia Blanca,
which, although unimportant in the
past, Is now expanding with great
rapidity, owing to new railroads and
the agricultural development of the
country adjacent to 1T.
The Plata is formed by the junction
OF the Uruguay and Parana rivers,
which stretch up the continent in a
northerly direction. The Uruguay lies
to the east of the Parana, constituting
the western boundary line between the
republics of Uruguay and Argentina
The Parana subdivides at Corrientes,
whence its western tributary. known as
the Paraguay, forms the chief waterway
through the country of that name and
has its sources far up in the tropical
regions of Brazil.
Next to the Amazon the Plata river
system is the largest In the world,
consisting of 10000 miles of inland
waterways, which, consolidating in one
estuary, discharge into the Atlantic a
volume of water s5 per cent greater
than that poured into the gulf of Mex
leo by the Mississippi
