PRICE FIXING PROVES
FAILURE In GERMANY

washington. April 26.-Prica fix

are rolling in wealth while the
masses are in abject poverty.
Not daring to tax the people di-
rectly. the bulletin says. money is
raised for the war by floating loans.
These aoans although, taken 20 some
extent by the wealthy classes are
really paid for by the people who

ARGENTINA BECOMING
A FINANCIAL POWER

Buenos Aires, April 26.--Argen-
tina's financial and econonics condi-
ton apparently is being strengthen
ed as the war drags on. The republic
recently signed a convention for fl
nancing the sale OF several million
tons Of cereals to the entente allies,
which really amounted to huge
loan. and there have been other
events in financial circles which
show that Argentine credit abroad
and confidence at home are pro-
crossing hand I'm hand.
The fact that Is being most widely
commented upon by the Argentine
newspapers is that confidence at
home has become SO strong that
stocks OF the National Mortgage
bank, known as "credulas hipote-
carias' are being quoted at par for
the first time in their history. These
.credulas are looked upon in financial
circles as barometers Of the nations
condition, for they are shares in a
bank which is backed by the gov
eminent and they fluctuate with the
improvement or weakening Of gov
eminent credit Usually they are
quoted around "a to 96 and they have
never gone to par, even during the
