EMBARGO PLAN FAVORED
Some Argentine Officials Support
carranza's Proposal.

BUENoS AIRES Cby maiD, March
6.-General Carranzas proposal that
the neutral countries cut off supplies
from the belligerent nations unless
the latter make peace terms has
many supporters in official circles
here.
The officials who favor the Mexi-
can first chiefs plan say they do not
believe ii was dictated to him by the
Germans. Even so, however, they
declare they want to see peace re-
stored and do not particularly care
whether this is accomplished by pro-
German, by pro-ally, or by entirely
neutral influence.
A large South American element
objects to an out-and-out victory by
either of the European groups. The
view Is that South America will suf-
fer IL either side should gain a COM
plete monopoly of South American
trade.
The suggestion that the United
States would furnish competition in
either case is held to be a distant
prospect on the ground that IL will
take the United States some time to
build up an adequate mercantile ma
rine. IL she ever does.

AMONG THE SCOUTS.

Charity begins at home; also patriot
ism. The Troop S Boy Scouts of Lyn-
brook, N. Y, have recognized the fact
that there is work right at hand, and
they have offered to care for Civic
park, cutting the grass and raking the
walks.
There is limit to boys endurance,
even though he is trained Scout. He
must have time to eat, to sleep, to
play. Nlnety-nine times out of hun.
bred, though, the Scout will run the
scoutmaster off his legs.
Water boiling Is always an interest
ing contest at any Boy Scout rally.
The scout never boils pail OF water
by standing 1t on a piece of wood with
the fire simply touching the sides of
the pail. The winner usually gets his
pail on the fire early, after starting o
good blaze by cutting small slices Of
wood from the size Of toothpick to
that of a pencil. Then, by nursing
along the fire, gradually adding larger
pieces Of wood, cutting and working
fast, he stands some chance Of ap
preaching the record for quart Of wa
ter brought to a boil. which Is abou
seven minutes.
