URGES ENGLAND
 TO INACCURATE
 REAL BLOCKADE

London, Jan. 27.@TheA Manchester Guardian, commenting editorially on the speech of Sir Edward Grey, the foreign minister, delivered yesterday in the House of Commons on the blockade policy of Great Britain, says that he demolished both the statistical attack against the government policy and the charges of interference with the work of the navy. It argues, how ever, that the orders in council should be succeeded by the declaration of an actual blockade, in order to meet the legal objections raised by neutral states. The editorial concludes:
 stBIockade the doctrine of continu- ous voyage and enlarged list of con- traband are all recognized means of carrying on naval warfare and their employment would not only knock the bottom out of the legal arguments which the United States is now pre- senting against our policy, but would give us even greater power than we now have of injuring the enemy. This was the criticism we made of the pol icy of the orders in council when MT. Asquith explained it and we have nev- CT seen a completely satisfactory an- Swer to the criticism
 ''Is it maintained that by meeting the American view which we could do without in any way compromising our war on Germany's trade at sea, we should get rid of one set of difficulties only to fall into another?"

Buenos Aires, Jan. 27.-The inf1u- ences of the war in Europe are being felt acute1y in South America The routine of life, as fixed by the seasons and their phenomena, is thrown out of gear. Immigration returns for the first time in many years, show a bal ance of emigration. This is attributed to the exodus of Italian reservists who have rallied to the colors with enthu- siasm and spontaniety. In normal times the Italian and Spanish innmi- grants flock in about equal mum bers to the harvest fields of Argentina. The efflux has gone on in the same pro portion, for it is a peculiar fact, one which no one seeks to explain, that the Spaniards, as if acted upon by some sympathetic influence are leav- ing by every passenger steamer. It cannot be said that they are going in greater numbers, for the simple req son that all those who are not radicat- ted in the Republic already have drift ed away.
 This shifting of labor is not strange; but occurring at a, period when hands are most needed and wages are high est, it causes a certain feeling of un- easiness. One good result is that the National and Provincial authorities have been induced to think more ser ious1y of their natural sources of hu- man energy, and how to organize them. The country is large that with ample railroad facilities the un- employed hands in the North, for ex- ample, could be shifted to the South where at a given period of the year, extreme difference of climatic cOndi- tions prevail. This organization, so far has not made itself apparent by results.
 At the present moment there is a, considerable number of unemployed in the Pampa Territory near what may be called the geographical center of the Republic. Having drifted there, these elements are causing consider able trouble by their trucu1ent and are of course under National adminis- tration fifty men of the Metropolitan police armed with rifles and well sup piled with ammunition have been sent down to reinforce the local police and maintain order. The Department of Labor declares that had these elements been amenab1e to control they would not have drifted, at the precise mo- ment when they were wanted else where, to a point at which they were not required It is, however, difficult to organize elements so i1literate that they cannot read.
 Anoher serious effect of the war is t11at freighting vessels are few and rates exceedingly high. The amount of Argentine produce held up for lack of transport is very large. An idea Of it's magnitude can be gathered from the following fae%s which, relating to a few zones, may be regarded as com mon to all. The great Central Argen- tine railroad system, ramifying through the central northern and northern provinces report that over 200, GOO tons of wheat and linseed of the last har- vest are still waiting to be moved.
 In Rosario, the depot of the North, ther is at least the same quantity of corn of the same harvest stored and waiting for export Tn addition there
