Overtures are belntf conducted between peditical bader.s of some of e provinces for the formation of a "league of governors' for the purpose ef unitlm? 1 1 i ' northern atrricaltural ILstricts of tl e country against Ilueno-t Aires .and other coastal districts. Some j political observers see in this movement an attempt to return to the former division of the country po htically into opposing sections- while others maintain that it merely is an economic measure havlnp as its purpose the protection of the productive . area?. T .Arntina. the city of Buenos Aires h.is the relation of the spout to the tea-kettle and practically all of the wealth of the country pours through it. It Is at once the linancial. (i;.i;ributl!i and political capital of the country. It i- i -aimed by the leaders of the league idea, ; the city has disproportionate power lend the northern states need union to ofiset this.
