Secretary of State Hull today
expressed concern lest the Fas-
cist regime in Argentina spread
its philosophy to the rest OF
Latin America.

rected toward defending the Allied

mary consideration, and secondarily
preventing the spread of Fascism.

particularly over statement which
Gen. Farrell made last night saying
that the Argentine Army expected to
stay in. power indefinitely.
Mr.. Hull referred reporters to his
speech Of July IS, In which he said !:

BY the Associated Press.

ROME, Sept. 7.-American and
French troops attempting to
frustrate the German with
drawal from Southern France
have swept through a number of
additional towns and the Amer
leans are approaching the stra-
logically important Doubs Valley
adjoining the western border of
Switzerland, Allied headquarters
said today.
(CBS reported unofncially from
Rome that American Armies from
North and South France had
Joined forces at an undisclosed
point near the German border.
These were named as the forces
OF 1t. Gen. George S. Patton's Sd
Army and 1t Gen. Alexander M.
Patch's 7th Army.
CA Lausanne Gazette dispatch
from the French frontier said
Americans with tanks had arrived
at Montbeliard, only 10 miles
from Belfort, the fortress town
on the valley route into South
west Germany.
tThe Swiss telegraph agency
said about 800 persons, including
women, children and old men,
had been impressed by the Ger
man SIS to dig trenches on the
west side of the Rhine around
Huninque and st. Louis, just
north Of the Swiss frontier.)
No Word Of Nazis Fighting.
The Allied communique indicated
the main German force still was
outdistancing its pursuers, and a
headquarters statement contained
no word of major fighting.
After occupying Chalon sur -Saone
the French troops reached nearby
Givry and advanced up the west
bank of the Saone to Allerey. The
Americans, operating farther east
drove northward to the Doubs and
upper Saone Valley, occupying
Poligny, Arbois and Bletterans, and
passing Chaumergy, about S miles
from the Doubs River. The Rhone
River canal flows through the Doubs
Valley.
Arbois is 26 airline miles south
west of Besanco, which lies Al miles
from Belfort.
Position Not Indicated.
There was still no official indica-
tion of the present position of the
main German force, which could
have dashed northeastward from
Chalon toward the Belfort gap after
showing its heels to the French and
leaving strong rearguards to pro-
tect its flank from the Americans.
A naval communique told belat-
edly of 24-hour bombardment by
American destroyers September 4 or
the right flank of the 7th Army.
The U. S. S. Ludlow poured SIG
rounds against batteries, strone
points and troops in the area be-
tween Cape Marpin and Monaco on
the Riviera, with results described
as "very good" despite some shore
retaliation.
Meanwhile, the work of clearing
the harbors of Toulon and Marseille
