ARGENTINA PLEASED
WITH TARIFF VETO
fBy Associated Press)

BUENOS AIRES, March 5.-Reports
that the Fordney emergency tariff bill
had been vetoed by President Wilson
were received with relief by newspa-
pers and importers here. 1t was said
that this veto signified a continuance
of the growing business relations be-
tween Argentina and the United
States, which would have been seri-
ously embarrassed by the Fordney
measure.
The possibility that similar legisla-
ton may be adopted by the United
States congress is generally recogniz-
ed but it is pointed out that a delay.
even for a few months. will give an
opportunity for REIMBURSEMENT so that
the effects of such legislation would
be less serious.
One business authority declared to-
day that exports from Argentina were
increasing and would lead toward bet
ter exchange conditions which would
encourage the resumption of business
This tendency, he declared would be
strengthened by the veto of the Ford
ney bill.

BOLIVIAN MUTINY
THOUGHT TRIVIAL

LIMA, Peru, March 4-Little i'm
portance is seen in the mutiny of
regiment of Bolivian soldiers early
Thursday morning at LaPaz,it was de-
clared here today by Juan Manuel
Sainz, Bolivian minister to Peru, who
declared the action was not of a poll
teal nature. He said the declaration
of a state of siege in various provinces
of Bolivia was merely a precautionary
measure.
The trouble began where six sol
diers were arrested by police at La
Paz shortly after midnight Thursday
morning. The company to which the
men belonged left its barracks and
followed by other units of the garri-
son at LaPaZ marched toward police
headquarters. An attack was made
upon the police station but the SOL
diers could not get in. During the dis
order persons were killed and a num-
Der were injured. The people of La
Paz remained indoors during the
fighting.

Hard to Pick Guards.

guards have come to light in the
tournament. But in Loehr. Ridgeway

determining the district champion
makes it impossible TO see all the

Three Forwards.
In picking Lamb. Wichterman and
Harkins we believe we have the three
best men represented for the forward
positions. Lamb, no doubt, was the
fastest man seen in action in the
tourney. He plays Wondertul floor

Roaring Applause.
Walls of the coliseum shook with
the applause of the spectators as the

RICHMOND CLIMBS
OVER Whitewater

Hopes of the strong Whitewater
team for annexing the district basket
ball gonfalon were dashed by the
Richmond quintet in a well played
game Saturday afternoon in the semi
final round. Richmond left the
floor on the long end OF a 27 to 16
score.
Whitewater had the red and white
aggregation worried at times during
the contest by virtue of its long shots
which were dropping into the netting
from difficult angles. Grey and Blose
each contributed a couple of these
heart breakers, but these were not
sufficient to overcome the rapid pass
work and goal caging Of Richmond.
Rost Leads Attack.
Rost led the attack of the local
school in goals. He followed in shots
with great skill and tipped in several
goals as a result of his tactics. Rich
mond led at the end of the first half
II to S. Coach Null allowed his line
up to remain unchanged throughout
the game, while Whitewater made
numerous changes in an effort to
bolster their attack.
Richmond entered the finals as re-
suit of their win over the green and
white aspirants. The lineup and
score follow:
