Former Ambassador Here

Affair of Honor.

BUENOS AIRES, October DIR
Tomas sLe Breton and Deputy
Molinari were both slightly wounded
after a brief encounter in an affair
of honor at midnight last night The
duel was fought with sabers.
Deputy Molinari was challenged
by DR.. LIE Breton on account of the
publication of a newspaper article
which the latter, in his position as
minister of agriculture, considered
offensive. DIR. lie Breton rendered
his resignation as minister to the
president in order to fight the duel.
Molinari had also been challenged
by three members of the Chamber of
Deputies who took umbrage at
similar articles which they consider
ed offensive.
Or. Tomas l.. Breton, former Argen-
tine Ambassador to the United States,
left Washington a little over a year
ago when he was elected to the
Argentine Senate. Shortly after his
arrival in Argentina he was appointed
minister of agriculture and was
serving in that capacity until few
days ago. He also acted for a time as
minister of foreign affairs.
DR.. LIE Breton was considered one
of the most popular ambassadors his
country had ever sent to Washington.
During his stay of about two years
here he was very active, not only in
social life of the diplomatic corps
but in his duties as representative of
Argentina. His intense interest in
agriculture initiated a practice nn-p
followed by the Argentine embassy
of translating numerous bulletins
gotten out by the United States
Department of Agriculture and send
ing them to Argentina for use of the
farmers there.
