Deputy Prepares Meas.

Protection.
EXPORTS ARE SLOW.

BUENOS AYRES. Feb. 2.-Argen-
tina has taken it's first step in re-
prisal against the proposed Ameri-
can restrictive tarlff bill.
At the same time its proponent
Deputy Saccone, forecast what may
be, in effect, a worldwide tariff
war.
Saccones measure. which would
be introduced Immediately upon re-
opening OF the Argentine congress
May /, should the Fordney tariff
bill be passed in the United States
provides for a 40 per cent tariff OF
importation OF goods from all cOun-
tries which have increased or ere
ated import duties on Argentine
products.
In view of the new tariff bill
which is prohibitive, and because
Of the prospects of similar tariff
measures being enacted in other
countries, particularly Europe, We
are obliged to present this measure
in order to defend our interna-
tional exchange and foreign trade
Saccone said in an interview with
the United Press today.
Cites Loan Call.
SaCCOne cited the restriction in
American credits and demand for
payment Of the $50, 900, 900 loan 10
Argentina under the most unfavor-
able exchange. He emphasized that
this. coupled with the prohibition
upon export of gold from Argentina
makes export of goods the sole pos
sibility for equaliZing the economic
situation.
IF it is impossible to export
goods. importation from the United
States must be restricted to enable
us to establish a balance" the
deputy declared.
The proposed law must not be
regarded as a reprisal; rather as a
defense. formulated under the same
arguments as advanced by the pro.
ponent OF the Fordney tariff bill.
The supposition that We ar,
solely dependent upon the UniteC
States for industrial importations i!
erroneous We are amply able Z
defend ourselves with our owl
laws"
Shortly after introduction of tn
Fordney bill. Leland l.. Summers
engineer and former chairman o
the European division of the Wa
Industries Board, and Prof. Edwart
r. SeIigman. dean Of the economic
department OF Columbia University
forecast the action threatened D,

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. 2. Idle
thousands in Ohio cities seem deter
mined to strike against going to
work on farms. v. r. shaw, of the
Department. OF Agriculture, said
here today.
A food shortage and high prices
may result throughout the entire
nation II the same strike Of the
unemployed is undertaken in other
States, Shaw warned.
Farmers, offering to hire men at
wages below those paid last year,
according to Shaw, despite the fact
that 100000 men are unemployed in
Ohio, as shown in a recent survey
10y the United States Employment
Service.
Shaw's survey of Ohio showed:
Need 100000 Men.
Farmers need 10000 workers in
the next two weeks for spring plant
ing.
The United States Department OF
Labor estimates $4,000 men out OF
work in this State.
The striking unemployed with 4
wage taste cultivated by war con-
ditions, refuse to return to the farms
for less pay than $50 a month and
board.
Farmers forced TO pay high prices
for material and faced with a de-
clining market see financial loss Un-
less labor is obtainRble at pre-war
figures. They offer $40 a month
and board, and fnd no applications.
Last year farm workers received
t65 a month and board.
The unanimous opinion has been
reached by farmers individually, ac-
cordinE to reports to Shaw. that
there will be no profits from the
soil this year unless the army OF
unemployed ceases to be epicures
OF high wages. Many farmers have
removed corn and wheat from their
crop rotation plan. A considerable
number have abandoned the land

committed to the asylum at Yves

his request that the commission en-
