BRITAIN AND ARGENTINE
THE ECONOMIC TIES. [BRITISH OFFICIAL WIRELESS.] RUGBY, June 9. An Argentine University delegation, now touring England, visited the House of Commons to-day, and a speech of welcome in Spanish was delivered by Mr Harold Mitchell, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Overseas Trade. Latei- at a luncheon in their honour, Mr Mitchell referred to the deep friendship of Britain with Argentina, which remained unimpaired since it began 100 years ago. To-day, he said, Argentina and the United Kingdom were in remarkably close economic relations, and it was pleasant to think that this country now provided Argentina with a market for those products which her own countrymen had done so much to create. It was hoped that, as the result of their visit, they would carry away with them a wider idea of Britain’s efforts and achievements in spheres other than economic—in the world of medicine, law, science, literature and politics.
