opinion is. concerned, but in other re
spects under rather Oppressive condi-

of the country are b yno means en-

The new government. further
more, will be compelled to coclude
or quash much ambitious legislation
which was initiated by the recent adj
mlnlstration. Among the schemes
left pending are sound money bill,
an intermediate school education
bill and pension measure for rail-
| road and civil service employees. All.
of these measures are highly con-
| tentious and the new government
may have difficulty In disposlng of
them to the satisfaction of the pub
lie.
/ During the change OF government
Just effected the cordial relations ex-
listing between Argentina and Its
ineighbors were demonstrated by
ing states. Numerous speeches indi-
Gated a firm resolve to maintain and.
strengthen the bonds of friendship.
4 Relations with Uruguay have as
lsumed a particularly favorable posi-
I ton because the long standing con-
ltroversy with the Argentina in re-
gard to the islands Of the Upper

A treaty between the two countries
has Just been signed and ratified.

position OF the islands with regard

isfaction IN South America, the
adoption OF the modern conception IN
