duces wheat and meat, of which the

ticking Al per cent Of all that rePub-
lies exports. Britain, the next on the
list, took 70 per cent.
Of course this abnormal relationship
is due to the foct that the war makes
normal export to Europe impossible.
The United Stotes cannot hope to keep
any such proportion Of Argentine trade
in ordinary times. But it does suggest
that perhaps increased trode between
the two countries is not SO impossible
or hopeless as some have insisted, and
thot even in international trade, where
there's will, there's way.

The English, invasion, In which
Saavedra gained prestige a. q

Europe's war Of 1908, and British
hopes to curb Spanish influence In

DEcENTRALIZING The SEC
