friendship for the allies, especially the
United States. That Is the assurance
brought back to this country by Dr.
Romulo s. Naon, ambassador from Ar

DR.. Naons friends say that had he

people, he could not have been per
suaded to return to this country as
ambassador. He now bears the add
tional designation of high financial
commissioner and Is empowered to en-
ter into mutually beneficial financial
and commercial agreements with the
United States.
DR.. Naon said on his arrival here
that the attitude of his country had
been much misunderstood and mis-.

German cause, he insisted.

ain having had great part Of Argen-
tina's trade at that time.
Under a convention signed last jan
uary the Argentine government estao-
lished credits of $100,O00,000 each in
France and Great Britain. In return
Argentina agreed to dispose OF 2,bOO.-
900 tons Of grain to these countries
to be exported before Nov. OF this
year While DR.. Naon refuses to an
ticipate the negotiations which he Will
take up with this government, 1t IS
assumed that 1t will seek to establish
a similar arrangement here except
that it will be broader in scope and
will embrace a great number OF arti-
cles of import and export.
Argentina is in need of manutactur-
ed steel products. tin products, coal.
caustic soda, and q wide variety OF
other articles, some Of which the Unit
ed States might spare from it, stores
in return for grain and other neces-
sary commodities.
Referring to the common belief that
President Irigoyen, and possibly other
members of the government, were &C
tive German sympathizers, DR.. Naon
said that the people In the United
States had misconstrued the motives
of the Argentine government In pro-
ceedingly cautiously amid the excite
ment Of the days when the exposures
were being made Of German activities
in Argentina and at the time the mes
sages of Count Won Luxburg were
made public.

LONDON, July 24-The trades union
advisory committee has been summon
ed by the ministry Of munitions to a
conference Thursday to discuss the la
Dor troubles at Coventry and the gen
eral labor problem. How far the I'M
ion officials will be able to influence
the situation is impossible. 20 say.
According to several reports from
Coventry in the morning newspapers,
the strikers are not only defying the
government, but also the trades union
leaders, and have overthrow their To-
cal leaders. The number of men in
volved is from 5000 to $4,000, various
ly reported as % to so per ceNt Of
Coventrys total of munition workers.
Some reports are to the effect that
the strikers are nearly all young men
OF military age who took refuge In
the munitione trade from CONSUMPTION
earlier in the war, and 1t is said, and
are prepared to 60 any lengths to
avoid active service.
Old Workmen Disconnected.
On the other hand, one Of the main
causes Of discomfort is said to be the
fact that semi-skilled youngsters who
have acquired all the engineering
knowledge they possess during the
war, are earning much higher wages
than the older skilled men because the
youngsters are paid piece rates while
the older men get time rates. This
is said to be only one among COM
plexity of grievances which can be
traced, according to some reports, to
bureaucratic inaptitude. At the same
time Il is recognized that it is i'm
possible to attempt to lower the piece
rates, as 1t declared this would re.
suit in a general strike Of far greater
dimensions.
To the series Of real or fanc1ed
grievances against the ministry Of mu
nitions must be added, according 10
the general testimony, a strong pacifist
intrigue.
