PLANNED Despite Government’s Action on Bill, Treaty With United States Is Made PRESIDENT Buenos Aires, Aug. 26.—President Irigoyen’s administration has just an- nounced through Finance Minister Sa- laberry that it will oppose the pro- hibition bill recently introduced into eputies. | Neverthe- less, an official move in favor of the restriction of the liquor traffic is seen in the terms of the reciprocal commercial travelers’ treaty “recently agreed upon between United States Ambassador Stimson and the Presi- dent. This treaty, which will probably be drawn up and signed in Washington during Ambassador Stimson's visit there on leave, will provide for a sin- gle Federal license for American salesmen in Argentina, instead of li- censes for each province, but will ex- clude them from selling alcoholic beverages under it. The prohibitive clause was requested by President. Irigoyen, it is learned. It was accept- ed by the United States government notwithstanding the fact that no such - clause appears in other commercial travellers’ treaties negotiated by the United States. The American policy of uniformity for treaties of this sort hag’ thus been waived in favor of Argentina. Since alcoholic liquors can no longer be legally exported from the United States, American salesmen naturally will not be affected by the clause, but its significance lies with Argentina in that it establishes a pre- cedent in the direction of prohibition, It is pointed out that if this treaty with the United States is ratified, other nations who may desire also t, negotiate a treaty with Argentina pro; viding for a single Federal sales- man’s license would, by virtue of this precedent have to accept a similar clause against the sale of intoxicat- _ing liquors. Otherwise their sales- “men must continue to pay a separate license in each of the 14 provinces. These vary and run as' high as a thou- sand pesos. While President Irigoyen is known to be strongly in sympathy with re- stricting‘ the liquor traffic, it is said, that he feels that Argentina is not yet ready for total prohibition. One entire province, Mendoza, thrives up- on the wine industry, and the use of light native wines, especially in the rural districts, is almost general. The introduction of the prohibition measure in Congress was followed by a strong protest from the Mendoza wine growers. They were told by Minister Salaberry that, “although h¢ had not consulted President }rigoye: on the subject, he could assure them that the executive power of the na- tion will not approve this reform, and if it is necessary, will oppose against it all the legal resources upon which it can lay hand.” Meantime the wine growers have organized “junket” for Congressmen to the wine grow- ing district to show the importance of the industry to Argentina. the Chamber of REPUBLICANS CONFIDENT OF CONGRESS GAIN Prospects Bright for Republican Victory in Seven Demo- cratie States LEAD IN SENATE IS TWO Washington) Aug. 26.—While the election of the next president of the United, States is the chief object of the forthcoming election, leaders of both big parties are awake to the im- portance of capturing the next con- gress and_ particularly the senate which must have a voice in executing America’s foreign policy, the princi- fal issue of the camfaign. . The Republican party now has a majority of two ‘in the senate and its leaders are alert to see to it that this majority is not overturned and, if Possible to increase it. Despite the issues involved in the presidential campaign and no matter which party may win a majority of presidential electors, the senatorial alignment is so close that a few changes might re- verse the party control. Republican leaders are keenly aware of this con- dition, but they are not conceding by any means, aS some democratic party chieftains seek to impress the public, that there is any likelihood of the re- publican majority being overturned. Republican Chances Good. While it is true that some of the re- publican senators seeking re-election are having hard fights on thet hands, due to a variety of causes and condi- tions, republican leaders point out that the same is true of the demo- crats. fact the chances for the Republicats making gains in states now represented in Democrats are/ ood. There are 33 senators to be elected this tall in 32 states, two to be chosen in Alabanta, one for a short term to succéed the late Senator J. H. Bank- head. Of course the Republicans make no claims in Alabama, but of the remaining 31 senate seats in- volvedin the election. 15 now are held by Republicans and 16 by. Democrats.

That is the question, and all Greece is thinking it over. Here’s the dope: King Alexander married Mme. Aspasie Manos, a French girl. In Greece there isn’t any such thing as a morganatic marriage. So the. king’s wife isn’t. His wife, morganatically speaking. Soon the. National Assembly is to decide if Greece will recognize. her as the queeft of Greece. It’s a long bet that it won’t, because she is not a jlaughter of the nation. Now thon, if King Alexander’s wife isn’t his wife, as far as the country is concerned, and isn’t his queen, what the whoop is she? And will Greece demand that.

Yellowstone National Park, Wyo.— Interesting changes have developed this year in the natural wonders of Yellowstone NationaY park, Led by Old Faithful geyser, which has short- ened the intervals of his perform- ance bycalmost-a quarter, of an hour, and is now playing every 64 minutes, the ges 's and hot springs are on their best behavior, promising a sea- son of unsurpassed beauty, as ff mind- ful that the number of visitors is ex- pected to exceed 100,000 for the first, time in the history of the park, Unusual depth of snow during the winter, followed ‘by a rainy spring, is belleved to be responsible for the brilliance of the natural, phenomena. Abundant moisture has been stored in the underground passages feeding the geysers and springs to enable them to excel their previous exhibitions. The Grand has become the park’s most powerful geyser. It is. playing once or twice each day, and for ten to thirty niinutes affords a magnificent spectacle of a fountain of steaming water 200 feet in height, Which. is suc- ceeded by five to twelve distinct erup- | tions, Giant and Giant giving great exhibitions.

Scores of small “geysers are constantly in action and of course Old Faithful, which attains a height of 125 to 170 feet, is observed hour- ly by persons from all parts of the world, as in previous years.

Occasionally a deer can be seen and photographed, nib- bling the salty encrustations from the trees, Orange Spring Terrace, which has grown to a great mound 15 feet high, has a tiny assistant, an “off-spring,” to quote the pun of a visitor, which bubblcs merrily at the original level of the parent spring, affording a com- prehensive view of how the terraces have heen built. s { Mineral springs in the park, includ- Ing the apoflinaris and iron springs, which are eagerly sought by visitors desiring to drink the waters, are pro- ducing great quantities.
