BUE’NOS MRES, Jan. 6.-—-—The ever-
recurring question Whether women of
‘remarks freely addressed to them in
the streets by Argentine men has flar-
ed up again. this time in a. lively
controversy of letter writers to the
Buenos Aires Herald.
"Dear Little Beanl'} and “011. my
pretty potato'" are some 'of the ex-
clamations to which objection is taken
when addressed to women by strang-
ers in the streets.
"potnto“- are used in Argentina.
much the same as are “peach" and
“chicken"‘in America. and the attrac-
tive young woman who ventureslnto
the streets of Buenos Alres unescorted
seldom fails to hear herself address-
ed in these terms by passing men.
The majority of the Herald's cor-
respondents. many of whdm are wo-
cluring‘ that it shows lack of respect
for women. and that. furthermore. the
‘remarks are not always as innocuous
us the ones quoted. Others-however.
‘maintain that the men do not intend
to be disrespectful. but merely com-
plimentary. Argentine women accept
such remarks as compliments. they
point out. although ignoring the men
who make them.
Indeed. the story is told that the
daughters of an Argentine family. not-
ed for their beauty. complained on re-
turning from a. visit to New York that
Amm-ican men were all rude-not, one
hurl remarked on their good looks on
the streets.
