' Buenos Aires, Dec. 12. Police au thorities today maintained a close re serve concerning the investigations which resulted in Monday's Yafd on a "house-in-'Estomba street and a statment from President Irigbcyn '- to the effect' that a plot against Herbert Hoover nad been frustrated. J The raid netted seven bombs, a number of small' arms ,a quantity 6f ammuni tion, some counterfieit money and several 'automobile license plates. Two' young men and two young wom en have been ' arrested 'as suspected anarchists. ..-.. . The" belief that 'the- -house was headquarters for a plot . 'against Mr- Hoover was based on the discovery in it of-a tailway map- of Argentina bh which the alleged conspirators plainly had marked: the 'route to be followed by the special train that is bringing the j good 1 will 'ambassador to this city tomorrow.' The map also Dore 'annotations which left' little doubt' as to the Interest' of the "plot ters" in the-Hoover party."" " that' the men-prisoners had acknow ledged activities in terrorists . plots and ' that they had openly avowed anarchist beliefs. '' J M ' Girls Names Withheld.

He is said to have , shown no , scruple .about re vealing . himself, as an anarchist. Neither of the young, men was in the house when it was raided, but they, arrived a few hours later and were - arrested. . Scarson tried , to re sist and. threw a chair at a" police detective..

Sands, writing in the Industrial Digest. ; This progress is the result of mass production of . electric current thru large central stations.
