ARGENTINA IS GOING TO FIND OUT SOON By PRESTON GROVER | WASHINGTON, Nov. 15—In an upstairs room ih the quarters of the almost-forgotten tariff commission there is being held the preliminary test that will show how far the U. 8. will go m opening its mar- kets to South America The immediate question: What concessions will the U. S. give Ar- gentina in their projected recipro- cal trade pact? This country already has a recip- rocal trade agreement with Brazil. | While that is important, it doesn't test our “geod neighbor” policy as |does the proposed pact with Ar-| gentina. Brazil produces a number of ltems (such as coffee) which we |vitally need, and in turn can ab- |sorb our manufactured products | | without stint. Argentina, on the other hand, is like the United States in many re- !spects and s becoming more so yearly. S8he has an enormous “mid- west” where cattle, corn, dairy pro- ducts, poulty and wheat are pro- |duced. Of all the South American {countries, Argentina is most ad- | vanced in manufacturing. Argentina ‘can use a host of American manu- factured articles, however. But to pay for them she must ship to the !United Btates the things we have |most of already: Cattle, corn, tur- | keys, hides. \ i | KEYSTONE STATE L4 & of QUAKER BURN- Argentina is the keystone country |in South America. Farthest from the | United States geographically, she |also is farthest in sentiment. She |always has leaned toward Europe, | which furnished a better market for | her wealth of raw products and was | {eager to supnly manufactures un | return. A solid wall of opposition arose iat once to making any concessions | to Argentina at all. The tariff-| commission hearings give a mis-| leading impression, however, be-| cause rarely does anyone but an opponent of concessions testify. Of several score witnesses heard in the opening days of the hearing, only one, a shoe manufacturing concern, asked to have tariff bar- riers lowered. He wanted more South American hides to come in.! The first days found a steady| stream of Senators and congress- men, each representing some sec- | tional interest. Senator Connally | distrik heat, reached. A QUAKER n of the pot, and No moving parts to get was an example. He pointed out that Texas produces cattle, hides,! turkeys and a host of other products | which would be hit by any rush of | South American goods over lower | tariff walls. | “We feel kindly toward Argen- tina,” he said, “but we do not feel so kindly that we are willing to sacrifice our own farmers to help the cowboys of the pampas.” He added: { “I voted for thé trade agreements law when it was passed, but I have not been happv ever since about the vote.” SAME OLD STORY can producers can compete means repeal of the reciprocal tra agreements act, which T believe would be a great misfortune.” He wanted Virginia turkey growers pro- tected The opposition was mostly cultural. There seems that any co sions m have to be in lowered tariffs farm products. And ti mc Argentina gets from selling items here will be spent—mostly agri- little t will on | for manufactured goods The principle behind the act ‘that such a trade will in turn bt fit the farmer because employment in marufacturing will be increased and a wider market for agricultural products will be opened. But it is hard to sell that sort of “remote control trade” to U. 8. farmer GOOD PROGRESS NOTED IN LOCAL RED CROSS DRIVE Radio Progfémg Are Being Heard Here Twice Each Day Juneau’s Red Cross drive is pro- gressing satisfactorily and the com- mittee of women who are donating time to the town canvass meeting with good succe Frank Foster, publicly chairman, repored today.
