-
Assurances of the warm regard of the
people Of Argentina for the United States
and of their sympathy for her ideals
were voiced by DR.. Romanolp S, Naon
Argentine ambassador and high fnan.
cial commissioner. here.
Doctor Naon asserted that he had
been highly pleased with conditions as
he had found them in Argentina during
his recent visit there, and that he was
equally pleased with the kindly spirit
with which his return to Washington
was greeted. He stated that 1t was
his desire to work for the improvement
of the already cordial relations between
the two republics.
The Ambassador called on Secretary
Lansing today and pdesented his creden-
tails as high financial commissioner
Recognition of the rank gives the United
States four commissioners from foreign
countries. Doctor Naon's position as
high commissioner from a country not
in the war is unique.
Doctor NaonS Chlef task as hlg
financial commissioner is not to hoat
a loan for Argentina in this country,
as has been reported from various
sources, but rather to cooperate with
the United States in working out prob.
lens of trade and monetary exchanges
tctween the two countries.
Most of ~Argentina's exports are pour
ing into the United States. American
export restrictions make it impossible
to send sufficient manufactured goods

crease this deposit to $4,000, 900, or
probably more, if necessary.

u. s. FOOD SACRIFICES
GREATLY AID ALLIES
British Official Shows What
Wheatless and Porkless
Days Have Done

'"hse'f 49, ave-
The people of the United states, by
self-imposed food restrictions. have
aided greatly in maintaining the food
supplies of the European Allies. Sir
William A.. NJ. Good, l!aison officer of
the food ministry. with the American
food administration, gave striking fig
ures showing the extent of American
self-sacrifce in an address today before
the consumers council.
From July, 1917, to April, 1918, the
United States exported to the Allies
10000, 900 bushels Of wheat products,
said Sir William. 1t was calculated by
Herbert Hoover American food adj
ministrator. that $4,000, 900 of this
represented the voluntary sacrifice of
the American people.
American exports of pork products to
the Allies in March. 1918, were 30S, 5000
600 pounds. This was accomplished by
porkless days and ceaseless hog produc-
ton in the United States.
In January, Sir William continued, the
Allies asked Mr.. Hoover for 10000, 900
pounds of frozen beef monthly for three
months. In March Sc, 900, 900 pounds of
frozen beef were shipped. This was due
almost wholly to meatless days in the
United States.

There are forty to fifty German military
officers in Jassy seeing that the Ruma.
MAN army is properly demobilized. and
they are gradually preparing the people
for complete German domination. The
German officers are losing no chance to
create a friendly feeling among the Ru.
manian military. German majors and
even colonies invariably saluting Ru.
manian officers, ofttimcs when the latter
are merely sublicutenants.
The Germans have requisitioned the
building which the American legation
has occupied during the last eighteen
months. ordering the American Minister
to find other quarters. As a matter of
fact, the Germans used the building as
their consulate in pre-war days and own
all the furniture. the American minister
only having leased the premises.
The Rumanian Queen has shown an
intense dislike of the Germans, and has
repeatedly refused to grant an audience
requested by high German military Off.
