THE BOCIE IN
ARGENTINA
Argentine Government To
Regulate American Meat
Packers

Cable dispatches from BuenOs
Ayers tell us that the Argentine
| government is about to ''regu-
late" the American meat packing
interests which have located
there, and which have developed
Argentine as a meat packing
country until it threatens to lead
the world. 1t appears that the
beef trust bogie" has at last
arrived in that far-off southern
land, and that it is being made
good use of by somebody-wheth-
er politicians or merely sensation
al newspaper correspondents re-
mains to be seen.
At any rate, the latest report
is that the Argentine government
is contemplating national legisla-
ton to restrict the commercial
activities of Americans in the
River Plate meat trade. This is
the first sign of such a state of
mind on the part of the govern
ment officials who have hereto
fore labored strenuously to Sc
cure the investment of United
States capital in their country to
help in the development of it's
vast unused recources. If they
have changed their minds it is
new and sudden development,
and it's working out will be
watched with interest.
The reports even go so far as
to outline the nature of one phase
of this proposed restriction of
trade. 1t is said that a law will
be passed limiting the free ex-
portation of meats from Argen-
tina; beyond this limit a heavy
tax will be imposed on exports.
The alleged object Of such legis-
lation is to prevent too rapid
growth of the export meat trade
concerns owned and developed
by United States capital.
Should such legislation be seri-
ously contemplated which yet
remains to be shown-its effects
on the worlds meat markets will
be interesting to watch. Just at
this time Europe wants meat
badly, and readily absorbs all
that South America can furnish.
The United States if suffering
from a beef shortage, and our
politicians are just arranging for
our relief in this particular by
preparing to put meats on the
free list. They tell us that when
they do that we can import all
the foreign beef we want, and
that prices will fall at once. Ar
gentine beef will be our salvation
from vegetarian diet.
There are some who doubt the
correction of such an assumption.
However, suppose that they are
wrong, and that free beef would
mean plenty of Argentine beef
How do they think this re-
ported legislation in Argentina
restricting beef exports will af-
feet the situation? Hadn't we
better amend the Underwood
Dill before it is too late, and in
sert some sort of reciprocity pro-
vision by which Argentina may
be induced to save us from a
vege tartan fate? We might even
agree to put all our meat packers
in jail, to prevent their further
development of Argentina's meat
resources. Such a measure of
reciprocity should merit a return i
favor.
Meanwhile, let us wait and see
how badly the beef trust bogie"
has frightened the Argentine
government. - National Provi-
sioner.

be significant in that it will doubtless
bring about some recommendations on
the part of General Evans that they be
strengthened materially to be fit in case
of war.
AS a matter of fact. however, Gen
eral Evans IS not so much concerned
about the coast artillery as he is about
the numerical strength Of the army. He
has contended all along that the mobile
army is painfully weak, but that with
some added strength it would be an
ideal auxiliary for the coast defenses.
General Evans will ask for the re-
ports of artillery officers on equip

last report. This information he will

Mr.. Wilson. However, l would not
agree to a reception by invitation.
That would mean the exclusion OF some

100000 visitors in Washington. To
