the majesty of the beautiful
music pealing from its
many golden throats, al

fails to be impressive.
1t is the largest organ in
the world, and weighs over
375,000 pounds. It con-

Vauban Brings Swarm of
Business Agents; Argen-
tina Reported Tied Up
Commercially by Strikes

The Lamport g. Holt liner Vauban
arrived yesterday from Buenos Ayres
and Rio de Janeiro with a full compile
ment of American travellers and bust
ness men from Argentina and Brazil
who have come here in the interest of
trade renewals.
Prominent among the passengers was
Robert S. Barrett, Comm ercial attache
of the American Embassy in Buenos
Ayres, who returns to report conditions
of trade in South America.
Argentina" he said, "is prosperous.
but is practically isolated because of
labor troubles. The people have lost
confidence in the governments ability
to regulate labor conditions. The posi-
ton OF labor has been elevated and the
cost of living has doubled in the last
four years. Wages in Argentina have
advanced only 20 per cent The labor
element is heing reused by agitators.
I hey are fighting now on the right to
boycott ship that is bringing COM
modties to firms claimed to be unfair
with labor. The daily revenue Of
S500000 at the Argentina custom
houses has diminished to practically
nothing. This boycott and strike has
had paralyzing effect upon United
States trade with Argentina.
