ARGENTINA NOT
IN FAVOR OF
~
CONFERENCES
Private Discussions on
League of Nations Are
Discouraged.

Buenos Aires. Friday. May 1e.--1n,
his message to the chamber Of dep
uties today President 1rieovon said
that Argentina refused to participate
in private conferences relative to the
formation Of a League Of Nations.
This section, of his message read:
The League Of Nations is an or
gani7ation of the greatest importance
and it signifies progress in which Ar
gentina will not hesitate to join. Ar
gentina was invited to, discuss the
league in "a private conference which
was absolutely unofficial because
neutral nations we're not taking part
in public discussions. Argentina re-
piled that her representatives would
gladly attend public discussion, but
that an important undertaking must
not be considered privately nor must
a distinction be maintained between
belligerents and neutrals in the for
nation Of the League Of Nations
which is designed to establish peace
in the future. The Argentine minis
ter at Paris explained the attitude
of this country to the Allies and Ar
gentina was invited to attend the first
public session for the organization OF
the league"
The president suggested arbitration
Of labor disputes and the passage OF
an S-hour and other legislation for
the benefit of the working man.

Washington, May 17.-The American naval sea

Faya Azores, at 9:20 o'clock this morning, Washing

NC 3, flagship of Commander John H. Towers, was
reported at Sis a. M, Washington time, as off her
course somewhere between Station Ships II and Is,
about one hundred miles from Horta
Original plans were for the planes to land at Pom

will continue that port, which is about $50 miles
east of Horta. Fog evidently caused Commander
Read to land at Eorta and officials here assumed that

night until they had passed destroyer

dio stations on this coast were able to
