.TACNA PLEB|SC|TE
BREAKUP FORESEEN
Gen. Lassiter's Resolution
Declares Chile Is Blocking
Fair Dealing.
By the Associated Press.

AFRICA, Chile. June 11.--An early
breakup of the Tacna-Arica plebiscite
activities here is foreseen in conse-
quence Of the resolution introduced by
Gen. Lassiter. charging Chile with
blocking fair plebiscite by failure to
carry out her obligations under Presi-
dent Coolidge's arbitral award.
If the resolution is carried at the
next meeting of the plebiscitary COM
mission, it is pointed out. there will be
little further for the commission to do
except wind up its proceedings.
Then, too, if the direct negotiations
for settlement of the problem now pro-
ceeding in Washington lead to con-
crete results before the next meeting
Of the commission, that body will cease
to function.
Plebiscite Held Impossible.
Gen. Lassiter's resolution, intro
duced as substitute for d Chilean
motion demanding that the date for
the plebiscite be fixed, is understood to
declare that a plebiscite is impossible
while guarantees are lacking for the
safety of Peruvian voters.
1t is based on Investigations con
Quoted throughout the disputed terri
tory since last August by American
observers.
The observers reported that the
conditions complained of by Gen
Pershing before his departure for the
United States are not improving, but
instead are growing worse. attacks
upon .Peruvlans increasing and forci-
BILE depOrtations continuing. Some of
the American observers place re-
sponsibility for these occurrences di-
rectly upon the Chilean officials in
the territory.
Violence Is Growing.
During the last three weeks there
has been an extraordinary recrudes-
cence of anti-Peruvian violence, rang
ing from the stoning of Peruvian
houses to murder. Yesterday a Pc
ruvian selling the local Peruvian n
newspaper VoZ Del Sur was stabbed
in the back in full daylight at Tacna.
The Chilean delegation is still
awaiting instructions from the San
tiago government as to it's future
policy in view of the Lassiter reso-
luton.
1t is reported that the Chilean gov
ernment has accepted the resignation
of Senior Gomez CarTenoS as in
tendente of Tacna

In the resolution, it was understood
Gen. IIassiter said plebiscite could
not be held because of Chile's failure
as administrator Of the two provinces
to provide guarantees for Peruvian
voters.

not intend to make public Gen. Las.
siter's reports in regard to his action
unless he requests it, and neither
American. Chilean nor Peruvian Off
cials here would disclose the exact
extent to which Lassiter's resolution

Reports in africa that diplomatic
negotiations for settlement of the
controversy had failed were not

that Secretary Kellogg is awaiting

Mr.. Townsend said Duluth; in 1916

grain going to Minneapolis. and the
Duluth Superior port; and in 1895
handled AZ per cent Of the total.

Meanwhile" he continued, Anime

In 1915 Duluth-S Superior handled 63,-
68l 1893 bushels and Minneapolis 234,-
244,800 bushels. while in 1926 Duluth
Superior handled 196,374,356 bushels
compared with Minneapolis receipts
of 213,4l7 $50 bushels"
Mr.. Townsend presented additional
figures to show how Buffalo, on the
receiving end Of the cheaper route,
has developed as a milling center at
the expense Of Minneapolis.
