The Argentine Senate, with only
one opposing vote, has passed areso-
luton severing diplomatic relations
with Germany. The chamber of dep
uties is expected to do the same. The
breaking off of relations, it is pointed
out, will have a powerful effect on
public opinion in all South American
countries where German influences
are known to be strong. That action
also probably would result in consid-
cradle material benefit to the allies by
restricting ArentiDe grain and meat
exports to the neutral countries by
which they might find their way into
Germany. Argentine is now the only
great neutral food producing country.
