WORLD TO ADOPT FREE +
TRADE IN FOOD. +


BUENOS AIRES, Oct. 20-For the
purpose of exchanging views on the
feasibility of negotiating information
al treaties under which all countries
would remove tariffs on food products
Foreign Minister Pueyrredon has call
ed conference tomorrow of all the
diplomatic representatives Of Pan
American nations accredited to Ar
gentina.
The project is described as a "hu-
manitarian means of reducing the
world wide cost of living" and the
possibility of its adoption by all the
countries in the world is contemplat-
ed.
Each envoy today received a memo
randum on the proposal for forward
ing to his home Government. The
foods for which the Argentine Gov
eminent proposes a free interchange
include rice, frozen meat, cattle on
the hoof, wheat, flour, fruits milk,
butter, barley, oils, fowls, eggs,
fresh and canned; canned soups, fish.
salt, and vegetables.
Sugar would also be included as
soon as regulations in force in some
countries against its export can be
modified.

$50, 900 TO KEEP WATCH
ON THE RHINE

Paris, July 26.-The size of the
force required for the occupation Of
the Rhineland under the terms of the
German peace treaty was a question
under consideration by the supreme
council at today's session. For the
present, it is said, a force of 10000
men is likely to be considered neces-
sary on the left bank of the Rhine.
The organization of the military ex-
petition for the occupation of Silesia
during the taking of the plebiscite
there also was discussed by the coun-
Gil. The general understanding is
that all the allied and associated arm
les should be represented. The partic-
ipation Of American troops in this

reason for the presence of the Ameri-
cans with allied troops.
In any case it is considered proba-
BILE that the proportion, Of Americans
in the expedition will be compara-
lively small.
