The crevice was a few feet deep and it is not known if the opening will spread and cause the whole roadway to sink to solid earth.

President Vargas removed himself from the turbulent South American scene, but did not solve anything with his suicide. It was cowgrdly of him to take his life. It he knew he was wrong, he should have resigned as head of the Brazilian government and gone exile. The Reds will promote turmoil and successors to Vargas will have more difficulty in restoring normal conditions in Brazil as a result of the drastic exit made by the former "iron man" of Brazil. 0 0 A New Crisis:— If the plan for the European Defense Community breaks down, and the failure of the EDC conference at Brussells makes this seem likely, it will be necessary to find another formula for granting sovereignty to West Germany. Sovereignty without much further delay is essential for several reasons. Any force which would resist possible Red aggression in Europe would be weaker without German troops. If West Germany does not get sovereignty soon it may turn its eyes east to Russia. Men like Chancellor Adenauer are largely responsible, for rehabilitation of the country and their influence with the people depends on their being able to demonstrate that friendly relations with the free world have advantages for Germany. Had France agreed to EDC there would have been no German army, although West Germans would be*armed to be part of the defense army. Without EDC, an Independent army trill be necessary. It is up to the western allied countries to see that the new army does not fall into the hands of those who would lead Germany in new aggression. To meet the, crisis the United States will be forced to reshuffle its foreign policy.
