"But will Europe be hungry enough to purchase Argsntlne's grain In bulk? That will depend upon what the allies think will be Argentine's position politically when the harvest Is gathered. They are making every effort now to so har monlie their pooled produce as to make purchases from neutrals as light as possible, not because neu trality Is a crime-o be punished, but s policy that will not be encouraged.
