11. William A. Fowler, Assistant Chief of the Division of Trade Agreements, and Henry E. Allen, also of that Division, who have been in Buenos Aires assisting in trade-agreement negotiations, are returning to Washington via Chile, sailing from Valparaiso on January 19. They have been instructed to proceed to Santiago as soon as their work has been completed in Buenos Aires, and should arrive within the next few days.
