gested a token payment; the Unit.

Argentina Back in Diplomatic Dog House
as Republics Prepare TO Join Reproof

Washington, Oct. 4-AP-Argen-

IS back IN the Pan American dog
house-only four months after it
got out.
United States patience with the
Buenos Aires brass hats ran out
yesterday. Today the 10 other
American Republics appeared about
ready TO join in hanging up the dip
lomatic quarantine sign along the
northern boundary.
Specifically, the republics seem
certain to go ahead drafting Pan
American defense treaty that would
exclude Argentina.
While treaty discussions are go
ing on, however, the United States
will take the lead in discussions
OF what else--if anything-the
Americas are ready to do about
their perennial problem child.
The first official step in the new
breakdown probably will come to-
morrow. The State Department
has asked the Pan American Union
governors to meet then to con

ican conference scheduled 20 open
October 20 In Brazil.
Actually, the host government al
ready has called off the conference.
This came after the United States
told Brazil It would not sit down at
a conference table with the present
Argentine government to draft the
hemisphere defense treaty.
The treaty had been the chief
item on the conference agenda.
Meeting newsmen. Acting Secre-
tary OF State Dean Acheson said
the Argentine regime had repudiat-
ed completely the hemisphere and
United Nations obligations 1t as
sumed last spring. Hence it would
make no sense for the United
States, he said. TO draft a military
alliance with such a government.
