which is published by that newspaper

profound significance which the peo-

to 'Race Day'" said the King. "The
happy initiative of the President of
Argentina in declaring a national
holiday for this-historic anniversary
has met with echoes In other coun-
tries of Spanish root and they will
not be tardy in seconding all that
has been done to make the holiday
one of all the peoples of the Span-
ish tongue.
