URUGUAY AND
! ARGENTINE IN
| WAR AGREEMENT
BUENOS AIRES, April 23.— Cor
j impendence of the Associated Press).
_A, new insight into Argentina's atti
tude toward German intrigues in
South America has just been given
by a statement of President Feliciano
Viera, of Uruguay, in which he in
formed the Uruguayan Congress that
President Irigoycn, oi Argentina, nad
promised to place the entire Argen
tine aimed force at the disposition of
Uruguay if that country’s northern
| provinces were threatened by the ru
moied German uprising in Southern
j Brazil, Argentina volunteering at the
| ^ime tine to assume whatever re
sponsibilities might result from such
. i
j a step.
The disclosure was a gnat surprise
to the Argentine people as it was to
tlie Uruguayans. Speaking to the
Uruguayan Congress, President Viera
j said:
I “With Argentina we have still ftir
i thcr strengthened the sentiments of
fri uidly solidarity which connect our
j two countries and which were confirm
'd not long ago b\ President Iripoyen
with an action that does honor to his
A norit^in sentiments.
‘ In view of the serious suspicions
hat the German Government was fos
I tering an insurrection in the German
colonies with the object of producing
Quality talks Smoke an id* Ro

I m uprising in the provinces of soufh
i eni Brazil, it being intimated that it
I was also intended to produce an in
vasion of the north of our territory, (
I Uie Uruguayan government, in bring
j mg the matter to the attention of
President Irigoyen, asked .expressly
whut would bo tlie attitude of the Ar
gentine government In case the Uru
guayan government should find It nec
essary to ask for materials of war
j for the arming of the militias which
• should be mobilized.
“President Irigoyen assured our dip
lomatic representative in Argentina
I that in case of such an attempt, the
| Argentine government would place all
; its assistance in the defense of the
| sovereignity of the Uruguayan na
tion, assuming the consequent respon
sibilities. The executive power thank
ed President Irigoyen for such friend
ly asisstunce.”
This declaration is the first intima
: tion that local political circles have
had of any such agreement between
Argentine and Uruguay, and is being
made capital of by those supporters
I of President Irigoyen who have been'
i maintaining all along that his foreign
policy is confined to bringing about a j
closer union ol* South American re
i publics for mutual protection against
other countries and to remain aloof
! from foreign disputes until they ac
tual iy threaten the territory of South
American countries.

GO AFTER THE
HUN SUB, SAYS
NAVAL CRITIC
LONDON, April 23.—Communder
Carl yon Bella! rs, M. P., who is re
garded as something of an authority
on naval matters in the House of
Commons, is of the opinion that the
Admiralty has relied far too much on
defensive tactics in coping with the
submarine menace.
“The happy position forseen for us,
next August, by I»rd Jellicoe,” he
writes, “cannot be attained except by
offensive tactics, which involve the
principle that barrages shall be laid
in the sea to bar the exit of the Ger-1
man submarines, and all operations of
German surface craft to clear a pas
sage shall be prevented by the con
centration of our own surface craft.
“The important thing to remembei
is that, in going and coming, German
submarines do not move until surface
craft have cleared a channel. To
smash the operations of the German
surface craft against a really scienti
fic, as opposed to the haphazard bar
rage, is to smash the submarine men
ace. A defended barrier in the sea to
a depth of 180 feet is perfectly feas
ible. No mining flotilla ought to be
able to act in face of a concentrated
and overwhelming naval force. Con
sequently, if tiie British and American
mines are as efficient as the simple
German mine which we captured in
the first week of the war, if we avail
ourselves to the full of all the other
details that go to foim a barrage,
such as nets, microphones and other
devices, we may then say, with ab
solute conviction, that the submarine
menace from the North Sea, Atlantic
and Dardanelles will be smashed from
the date when we have performed the j
delicate and balanced operation ot
completing some hundreds of miles of
barrage and great concentrations ot *
naval forces.”
