Reported New Sinking
Sharpens Argentina S
Axis Relations Issue
Fourth Merchant Ship

or Portuguese Coast
Ey the Associated Press.

Ey the Associated Press.
BUENOS AIRES-July l7.-Ru-
mors that another Argentine mer-
chant ship-the fourth-had been
torpedoed in the Atlantic sharpened
the issue today as the Chamber Of
Deputies resumed questioning gov
ernment officials on why Argentina
still maintains relations with tb
Axis.
Unofficial and unconfrmed re-
ports from Lisbon that the 299l-ton
freighter Argentine had been hit off
the Portuguese coast were said to
have been reflected in last nights
secret debate on Argentine foreign
policy.
Lisbon dispatches said the
Argentine Legation, shipping
agents and maritime radio serv-
ices were unable to confirm the
torpedoing. However, none OF
these sources was able to make
a definite denial of the reports.
CThe first Lisbon reports said
the freighter sailed for Buenos
Aires July 13 with a crew OF 81
and 3 passengers, including En-
rique J. Amanya, former Argen-
tine Minister to Rumania)
Foreign Minister Enrique Ruiz
Guinazu defended the government s
course last night in a seven-hour
session prompted by what opposi-
ton deputies deem to be Germany's
unsatisfactory explanations of the
sinking of the Argentine freighter
Rio Tercero, the third torpedoed
since the war began.
When a half-hour recess was or
dered late in the night, Argentine
sources said Ruiz Guinazu had been
speaking for five hours amid fire.

Despite rain, thousands turned
out to demonstrate vociferously for
democracy at the funeral Of former
President Roberto NJ. Ortiz yester-
day.
There were several clashes with
the police. In one mounted police
rode into the crowd with the result
that two were unhorsed and two
civilians were injured. In another
80 students were arrested.

Effective Wednesday

Several hundred German and
Italian employees of hotels, restau
rants and clubs here will be out OF
work Wednesday when a Justice
Department order to eliminate
enemy aliens from jobs that bring
them in direct contact with the
public goes into effect.
Orders to discharge these workers

where they will not come in contact
with patrons went out quietly to
hotels and restaurants several days
ago. Chiefly affected by the decree
are walters, bus boys and chamber
maids, although in some instances
BARRIERS. manicurists, bartenders and
An unfortunate tendency among
patrons in the Capitals bars and
restaurants to become too loquacious
over war matters was cited as the
reason for the drastic order. Justice
Department officials for some time
have been studying possible action
against alien employees OF hotels
anu ItStd vi anus.
Some hotels planned to shift en-

process for making a substitute rub
Der was the only additional process
under intensive study by the Gov
ernment-f financed Rubber Reserve
Co.
He made the comment during
committee questioning of Stanley
Grassland, vice president of Rubber
Reserve.
Mr.. Grassland said Flexon was
being considered as quick source
of rubber pending production OF
buna type elastic. A possible draw
back, he said, was the fact that one
Of the ingredients of flexon is iso-
butylene, which also is component
of aviation gasoline.
Senator Norris, Independent, of
Nebraska, asked Mr.. Grassland why
the Standard Oil people weren't
kicked out the window like you
did the Nebraska fellows" Senator
Norris referred to group from
his State who have attempted un-
successfully to get priorities and
Government contracts for plants to
produce rubber from alcohol made
from surplus grain.
Mr.. Grassland said I'VE have given
consideration to every process that
has been presented-we didn't kick
any one out" He added the Me-
braska group had never presented
a plan to him.
No Place for Alcohol Plants.
Later, George johnson OF Hast

which Senator Norris referred, tes-
titled he talked to Mr.. Grassland
last April 20 and filed with him a
copy of an application he had pre-
sented to the WPB. Mr.. johnson

S. E. Giudici, New York i'm

there Is a potential production of
100000 tons OF crude rubber per year
in Brazil alone, but how much of il
we get depends upon the number OF
men put to work gathering 1t ane
the price paid them"
Mr.. Giudici filed a statement esti-
mating that a wage of 81 to 81 so a
day would cause several hundred
thousand laborers to move back tc
the jungle Of the Amazon River
Valley and resume the collection of
rubber now growing wild Within a

tons of rubber could be produced,

LONDON, July 17.-Mai. Gen.
Carl Spaatz, commander of United
States Army Air Forces in Europe,
is no less gallant and considerably
more practical than Sir Walter
Raleigh.
Sir Walter, $50 years ago, threw
his coat on a mudpuddle for Queen
Elizabeth to step on.
Yesterday, when the present
Queen Elizabeth was visiting the
American Air Forces, it began to
rain. Gen. Spaatz shed his coat and
placed it over the Queens shoulders
with the remark:
Your Majesty, this makes you a
major general of the American Air
Forces"
