Commission to Argentina seems to have been remarkably successful. Indeed, Lord D'Abernon- describes the results as astonishing— a phrase which we hope need not be modified by the consideration that Lord D'Abernon naturally wished to say something grateful to his hosts. Great Britain is to open a credit in favour of Argentina up to 100,000,000 pesos for two years to be devoted to buying in Great Britain materials for the Argentine State Railways and other national departments. The Argentine Government will open a credit for an equal amount in favour of Great Britain to be ' devoted to buying cereals and other. Argentine .products. The Times says that as the railway material will be new business for Great Britain, it is thought that our exports to Argentina under this head may be doubled. * * * *
