national committee Of commerce.
and industry in q memorandum to
the chamber of deputies as rea-
son why alcoholic liquor is net used
to excess in Argentina.
The memorandum is a protest
against the prohibition bill intro

upon. The committee which rep
resents u large commercial con-
Germs, sets forth that the consump-
ton Of alcoholic beverages per per-

country in Europe or North Amer

of drunkenness does not exist here. "
. The use Of mate. which reaches
considerable quantities in the re-
public, operates as a veritAble pana-

liquors." the committee asserts.
Therefore, to speak OF social
danger in the present state Of the
question is to exagserate the mat
ter uselessly."
The committee dwells at length
on the economic phase OF prohibit
