bYt sympathetic with ALLIES attitude of argentine and brazil. DISILLUSIONED MILITARY EXPERTS. By Telegraph—Press Association— Copyright NEW. YORK. October 21. A special correspondent of the “Her-ald-Tribune,” who has returned after six weeks in South America, states that the overwhelming majority of the people in Argentine and Brazil are against participation in the war but feel strongly on the side of the Allies.
