DENY REPORT ON ~ MEAT IMPORTS
Early Says Roosevelt Made No Promise to Envoy From Argentine.
HYDE PARK, N. Y, Sept. 7 (U P.) President Roosevelt today exploded reports from Argentina tha! United States restrictions against imports of Argentine meats may be lifted after the November elections Through . his White House secretary, Stephen T. Early, Mr. Roosevelt denied emphatically that he extended such hope to Dr. Leopold Melo, chairman of the Argentine delegation to the recent Pan-Amer-ican Conference at Havana, who was the President's guest at luncheon here recently, A White House statement asserted that rather than indicating possibility that the 1935 sanitary convention might be approved, Mr. Roosevelt told Dr. Melo that it had no chance of passage, Dispatches from vesterday quoted Dr. Mele as telling a luncheon given him by the American Chamber of Commerce that Mr Roosevelt had told him that after the November elections, the Senate might approve the convention The convention, buried for five vears in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee by opposition of cattle-states Senators, would exempt Patagonian lamb and mutton from U. 8S. sanitary restrictions which now prohibit its entry into this country,
