One Phip of 6.000 tons has bene sold to Argentine owners, the money being held at Buenos Aires until the close of the war. It was rumored at the time of the sale that the bhip waa turned over to the Argentines without cost, in payment for the torpedoed Argentine sr, anirs "Toro" and "Monte I'rotegido" which the German government h greed to replace. upon grounds of national necessity. Industry Complains. A recent arrival from Chile asserts that the ldl bottoms are having much to do in overcoming tha pro-German sentiment in the west coast republic. He pointed out that the industrial and financial interests are complaining that they could have more than trebled the expansion of Chile's nitrate production since the beginning of the war if sufficient tonnage had been available. the question has been raised by mari- ; time interests in both Chile and Argentine as to whether the protection which ; international law affords to Interned , vessels is not limitaMe as to duration.

It has been confidently expected hera that F-eru would put the German ships in her ports in service, following her seizure of them some time ago as a precautionary measure against their destruction by German crews. Similar action is expecteJ on the part of Uruguay UrJKAN SHIPS I Bt United Press WASHINGTON'. Aug ID. Latin- I America is looking with ever-growing!
