PARAGUAY CHARGES
DENIED BY BOLlWANS
Legation Official Declares Troops
Have Not Occupied Fort
Vanguardia.

BY the Associated Press.
The Bolivian legation today officially
denied Paraguayan charges that Bolivian
troops had occupied Fort Vanguardia
within the last few days and had
advanced IL miles into Paraguayan
territory.s
Minister Diez de Medina of Bolivia
made public telegram from Foreign
Minister Elio, which was substantially
the same as the denial previously issued
by Elio at La PaZ Referring to the
charge made through the Paraguayan
legation here, it pointed out that Port
Vanguardia, after the attack by Para
guayan forces on December 6, was i'm
mediately taken back by Bolivian
garrison which met no resistance what
ever because the Paraguayan forces had
abandoned the position"
Minister Diez de Medina blamed the
Paraguayan report in large part upon
faulty and slow means of communica-
ton between the Paraguayan forces
at the frontier and Paraguayan head
quarters. Recalling that he announced
on the evening of December that
Fort Van Guardia had been reoccupied
by Bolivian troops, he said this report
was vigorously denied then by the Par
aguayan foreign Office, which now first
| hears of the immediate reoccupation
after the first clash on December g.
The Bolivian troops on the frontier,
| Minister DieZ de Medina added, are
| furnished with wireless sets whereby
headquarters can be kept informed con-
tinuously with events on the borden -s

Report Made on Phipps
Measure.

A sympathetic, but unfavorable" re-
port on the Phipps bill to allow the
District to borrow $4,000 900 from the
Federal Treasury for purchase of park
lands has been prepared by Roland M.
Brennan, chief clerk of the District
engineer department, and submitted to
Engineer Commissioner William B.
Ladue.
The bill provides for the repayment
of the money in 10 annual 1000. 900
installments out of the regular District
appropriations.
Mr.. Brennan said that while he is in
favor of the proposition of buying park
lands generally, he believes that $10,-
100000 is a disproportionate sum to be
allotted to this single consideration,
taking into account the numerous prof.
ectS the District has on hand calling for
the expenditures of large sums of
money. The District now spends
100000 annually on park land acqui-
sition.
I'VE must not forget. too" Mr.. Bren-
nan added. that parks in Washington
are benefits not to the District and
its taxpayers alone, but also to the
whole Nation. The Federal Government
should bear large part of the burden
of acquiring them"
Col. Ladue said that he had not yet
gone over the report.
