American manufacturers, and In bring

. Our trade with Argentina is at
present not entirely reciprocal, due
to the fact that both countries are
large exporters of agricultural prod
ucts and foodstuffs. The chamber In
Buenos Aires, with rare vision and
foresight, has q very active export
committee, whose purpose 1t Is to
foster and encourage exports from
argentina to the United States. with
the idea of increasing Argentina's pur.

list Of experts and surveyors who are
specialists in all Of the important com
modities entering into our Argentine
trade. This service, OF course, ls OF
fered not only to members or the
chamber, but to non-members as well.
"Although the decisions of the arbi-
tration committee Of the chamber may
not be officially recognized, there have
been only a few instances in which the
parties in dispute did not accept its
findings, this being one OF the condi-
tions of the arbitration agreement.
The importance Of the service render

incalculable value.
at is O. pleasure to say that the
closest cooperation exists between the
chamber and the representatives or
the Department of Commerce in this
matter Of trade disputes as we'll as in
all other activities having to do with
the protection Of American trade.
Cases involving solution by arbitra-
ton are referred to the chamber by
the commercial attache, and. on the
other hand, questions which the cham
ber has been unable to accept are sent
to the commercial attache for action
through official channels. The arrival
Of American. commercial travellers and
important American visitors as well as
the visits Of Argentine merchants to
the United States are reciprocally re-
ported from one Office to the other, so

Of the American Chamber Of Com

It's territory, and to interpret Ameri-

Of it's country Of adoption. Where our
material participation in the CONNER

small or unstable, as is the case in Ar
gentina, or where it is hedged about
with obstacles and Keen competition
for place in the sun, such an organi-
Zation is Of essential importance to
our economic welfare.
1.-THE chamber in Argentina has in
this respect proved its worth on re-
peated occasions in explaining and in
terpreting the American point of view
in discussions in the local press In
volving the commercial and other rela-
tions between the two countries, and
in the defense of American policies

Immediately after Gov. Ritcnie had

announced the termination Of the gen.

the expression that he regarded the
end Of the strike as another demon

and senslbly. near demonstration re-
suited. The Chamber then turned to
the task of considering a number of
propositions before the resolutions
committee.
Chief among these was an attack on
government activity in the building
industry. A special committee that
had been authorized to investigate
this question submitted a report con
tanning five recommendations, which
in effect demanded that all govern
ment construction work should be
opened to competitive bidding, and
that in cases where the government
underbids private concerns, the cost
for the government work should be
opened up for public inspection. The
report then was submitted to the reso-
lutions committee.
