RELATIONS WITH
UPSET BY iR
j WASHINGTON. Aug K Uommer
| cial relations lictwccn the United
j States and South Americ a are In a
'serious condition because of the war
j The lack ot shipping has caused a
I decrease in the amount of manufac
Hired goods exported to Argentina,
'and the factories of that country arc1
unable to meet the* demand. Some of
i tii-* factoties require raw materials
that have formerly been obtained in
the United States, and have been com
pelled to shut down or greatly to ur
! tail their forc es.
The entrance of the United States
into tie- war marked the end of ex
tensive shipping between this country
, and Argentina Besides a few steam
ships, some sailing vessels still visit
| Argentina, according to consular ad
I vices, but they are so small that navi
gation is dangerous, and they do not
even approximate* the demands of
j commerce, 'flic* most needed articles
! are heavy iron castings and coal.
Argentine business men are greatly
concerned because some of tuc* ves
sels arriving at Buenos Ayres have*
come in ballast, caused, they say, by
the* fact that they were sent away
from the United States Hurriedly to
get the cargoes of products in Argen
tina that arc* needed in this country,
j The United States has a credit of

said this situation requires diplomatic
arrangement, and that this s one of
the affairs to occupy the attention of
Ambassador Nunn, who has ju5t ge
turned to Washington after Six
I months' absence
Materials from Argentina sought hv
the United States and the other na
tions at war with (let-many include
beef, sheep, hides and wool, princi
pally According to official figures
recently issued by the Argentine gov
ernment, there are 80,000,ituo sheep
in the republic, as compared with 43,
000,000 in 1014. the last year in which
figures are available ’’’ha * ■' olio
last year was eat
kilos in value, or approximate.* «150,
000,000. The,total exports of Argen
tina last year aggregated about $175,
000,000, and the imports $190,000,000.
There were 3.000,000 head of cattle
exported, principally to the United
States, Knglnnd and France.
To meet the situation caused by the
lack uf ships the Argentine govern
ment lias decided to change several
eld warships to merchant vessels and
to hoy more ships wherever they can
he found. This is another of the
problems with which Ambassador
Naon will deal
Similar conditions are reported
from China. Kxports from the United
States of manufactured goods have
been virtually suspended, except on a
limited number of articles. Complaint
is made that a large number of vessels
from the United States have arrived
at Chilean ports in ballast to bring
nitrates to the Cniti > Stages Urgent
requests have been made to this coun
try to permit those vessels to carry
cargoes of needed commodities
