ARGENTINA AND U.S.
DIPLOMATIC BREACH POSSIBLE SOON TENSION MOUNTS OVER DENUNCIATION (Rec. 7.30 p.m.) NEW YORK, Feb. 13. The Washington correspondent of the “Herald-Tribune” says a formal rupture of diplomatic relations between the United States and Argentina appeared possible as the tension mounted over the American Blue Book, which denounced successive Argentine * Governments aS pro-Axis in war and totalitarian in peace. Some observers believe it remains now only for the Argentine Government to announce an open break. ' Latin American diplomatic correspondents consider any official interAmerican action on Argentina will be deferred until after the elections on February 24. Advocates of deferring action hope that the Democratic candidate (Senor Tamborini) will defeat Colonel Juan D. Per on and then clean up collaboration with the remnants of the German Nazi machine. Washington officials said to-day that further evidence was still being received from Germany bearing out the general thesis of yesterday’s Blue Book, but the line had to be drawn somewhere to close the volume for publication.
