Stewart, ' (United Press Staff Correspondent.) BUENOS AIRES, March 28. Trades unionists throughout South ' America today are extremely favor able - the proposal by President Say Qompers of the American T . of Labor for a Pan-Amer- 1c . V combination. , j. i in principle with Pres- iu.,ii Jompers suggestion, said Frencip'o Rosanoba, secretary gen ei-al c Jie Federation of Labor of the Argentine Region today, "and will work to accomplish the plan's realization. "To this end we are about to cor respond with the American Federa ' tion officials who are pushing the propaganda. If we could we would take a still more active part in the vrnrlr htit thta la ImnnBalhla at nroa. ent, owing to the lack of funds. "We are enthusiastic in our sup port of the idea.

KorrCKt, (United Press SUIT Correspondent.) PARIS, March 8. (By Mall.) "France will not see prohibition of alcohol for yoars." This brief explanation of one of the most agitated Internal subjects in France just now was mado to the United Press today by Jean Finot, noted French writer, author and president of the French society for action against alcohol. M. Finot predicts a long aud bit ter fight before France Is placed on the footing of prohibition. Widely circulated reports that French legis lative bodies would soon enact a dry France were denied by M. Finot. "Prohibition in France does not mean, as the word means In America, an absolutely dry France. It means the elimination of brandy, whiskey and other spirituous liquors .which to so much damage to the peoples of any country. The proverbial French light wine will always re main, i "The fight against alcohol which the prohibition forces of France are making has the most bitter oppo sition. When it Is considered that over four million people have their interests connected with the produc tion, distribution and sale of liquor, this is not surprising. "But France will eliminate In time, probably In about three years. Just as many American states have done. The movement already has great and growing support and is backed moral ly by some of France's greatest men." M. Finot's latest book, entitled, "The Enemy of The Interior," quotes various authorities to demonstrate that French wounded during the present struggle, who were habitual users of alcohol, have shown a re markable tendency to succumb to wounds which would not prove fatal to non-alcoholics. Prohibition will be one of the greatest after the war questions in France. It is expected to precipitate more legislative and popular Inter est than any subject has done for years.

(By United Press to the Bend Bulletin) TOKIO, March 28. The Rev. J. M. McCaleb, an American missionary from Boston, is in the midst of the quarrel with his Japanese students here today over the divinity of Jesus . Christ.
