DR.. Pueyrredon conferred with the

Electrical engineers say that one OF
the smallest falls in the Igazu group
could produce million horsepower
without detrecting any from the beauty
Of the falls.
Igazu Falls are little known even to
tourists because Of the difficulty OF
reaching them. From Buenos Aires. it
is necessary to go by rail or river TO

Capitalists have on several occasions
asked the Argentine government for
concessions to operate power plant
at the Igazu Falls but their petitions
never were acted upon.

lack of transportation facilities and
bring Argentina and Brazil closer to-
