WALLIS’. 12th and G:Stretts N. W IARGENTINA UPHELD INQUITTING LEAGLE President Calls Withdrawal Inspiration for Peace—Split in Delegation Disclosed. By the Associated Press. BUENOS AIRES, February .25.— Withdrawal of the Argentine delega- tion from the assembly of the league of nations at Geneva last December was decided upon by Foreign Minis- ter Pueyrredon against the advice of Marcello de Alvear and Fernando Perez, the other members of the Ar- gentine party. Reports that Alvear and Peres, .respectively Argantine ministers to France and Austria, op- posed the withdrawal from the as- embly. were officlally confirmed here when the government made public telegrams exchanged between - the winisters and President Irigoyey. While the telegrams were “personal,” they were given publicity, the gov- renment announced, because of accu- sations that all diplomatic documents | relating to the Argentine retirement i had not-been published. The corre- spondence disclosed that Alvear tele- graphed from Geneva November 23 that Argentina’s position was “ab- because the government had ratified the covenaut of the league { of nations without reserve, and if the i assembly did not understand this the delégation’s ‘participation would’ be inexplicab He pointéd out that modificationa to the pact could be made only by na- tions which wéré membufs to the league, and expressed himself as not in favor of making Argentina’s final { position dependent upon the accept- ance of amendments her delegates would introduce. In conclusion, he declared definite separation from the league would tend to place Argentina on the road to a dangerous interna- tional! policy. Alvera and Peres sent a joint Xele- gram December 12 disapproving of Argentina’s retirement, and saying they did not share the opinion of the foreign minister. They asked to be relieved of _responsibility for the action Senor Pueyrredon had taken. ‘President Irigoyen did not answer until December 30, explaining he had ‘kept silent, while “obeying the inti- mate inclinations of my soul and ‘waiting for inhereat reason to clear our judgment,” after asserting the minister's argument had been an- swered by instructions he had given the foreign minister and the logic of the question itself. He ‘added, that thé action of the delegation in withdrawing had “made our fatherland eminent and splendid, and even privileged in the world—a symbol of a most just and sublime inspirption - legding to uniyersal pence.” He called ‘Bttention o popu- lar demonstrations in this country in fayor ' . the "policy followed at Geneva, and concluded: “Only one .sorrow crushes ‘my spirit;"and that is your dissent. 1 cannot close without asking Divine Providence to illumine us alike in the aspirations- we_profess to countty.”™ ADV_ERTISING A BlG HELP TO REAL ESTATE DEALERS Frank P.

As to rental values of bullnfil loca- tions, Mr. Leetch stated that from the standpoint of the owner values were usually based upon investment, but in the mind of the merchant the paramount. principle governing his selection of a location In which to do business is based upon the volume of business which can be done in a certain location. “So many factors enter Into business property valuation,” he said, ¥that it is one of the most difficult problems to de- cide, there being nothi: more de- batable than real estate values and the proportion to be demanded and paid as | Femt” 20,000 FACE WAGE CUT.
