Brazil Lagging In Foreign Payments

By PHIL NEWSOM UP iForeign News Analyst When, in March, 1961, President Kennedy announced his S2O billion Alliance for Progress prbgram, it was acknowledged that much, if not all of its chance for success would depend upon Brazil. Recent events have shown how long are the odds. Size alone would make Brazil important. She is the largest country in South Amrica and is the fourth largest in the world, with the United States ranking fifth. As a key test of U.S. efforts to head off communism in Latin America, it also is worth noting that she borders on every South American country except Chile and Ecuador. As a grand plan, the Alliance for Progress looked toward a total of about $lO billion in U.S. aid to Latin America over a 10-year period, with an equal amount to come from the belter off countries of Europe and from private investment. “Loves Them So” Os this, Brazil would receive about S7OO million per year. In Brazil there is a saying that “God must have been a Brazilian, because he loves them so.” This was the light-hearted approach that permitted Brazil in succeeding years to build up a debt of around >3 billion in a headlong rush to vard industrialization and construction of a new capital in the hinterland without regard for cost or how to pay for it. In 1960 the cost of living due to inflation jumped 35 per cent. Into this financial mess on Jan. 1, 1961, stepped a new president, Janio Quadros, with a record of financial stability behind him, first ds mayor of the industrial city of Sao Paulo and then as

governor. Quadros lasted not much longer than it took the United States and the International Monetary Fund to refinance him. He resigned in August, 1961. Then came Joao Goulart, the present office-holder. At home, Goulart’s accession to office nearly led to civil war, and abroad, aroused suspicions because of his known leftist sympathies. This phase, too, passed and a tic'ker tape parade in New York and a cordial reception at the White House in Washington signaled Goulart’s acceptance into the c lub of hemispheric chief executives eligible to ask and receive continued U.S. aid. Promises Prove Fragile At this point it is impossible to say whether Goulart would have carried out the promises he made in Washington. At any rate, his promises proved as fragile as the torn scraps of paper which showered him in New York. Army opposition had forced Goulard to take an office whose powers had been taken away and vested in a prime minister. Goulart said then it wouldn’t work. And it hasn’t. Prime ministers have come and gone. Education and tax reform bills have gathered dust, printing press money has continued to flood the country and inflation has jumped another 50 per cent. A new law so restricts foreign investment as to almost guarantee that there will not be any. Once more Brazil is behind in its foreign payments. Goulart has won a fight for plebiscite which he hopes will restore the power of his office. In the meantime, Brazil indeed will need love from above.

U. S. Welcomes Soviet Debate On Red China UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (UPI) — The United States today welcomed another chance to combat Russia's attempt to replace Nationalist China with Red China in the United Nations. U.S. sources said Ambassador Adlai E. Stevenson would raise no objections to a full debate bn the issue when it comes before the General Assembly’s steering committee this afternoon. The United States was confident the assembly would repeat last year’s impressive support for Chiang Kai-shek’s government. Put to a direct vote for the first time in 10 years, the margin for the Nationalists increased by four votes over the 1960 tally, which was on a motion to shelve the issue. in addition, the Unitel States last year won overwhelming assembly approval for its demand that any change in the present Chinese representation in the assembly be decided by a twothirds vote. Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko, putting the question up for the agenda Tuesday, demanded the Nationalists be ousted from all U.N. organs in favor of the Peiping regime. This issue, plus a probable East-West clash on listing the Hungarian question for debate, promised the only real fireworks in the 21-nation committee’s consideration of 93 items proposed for the 1962 agenda. The assembly, opening its 17th annual session Tuesday, elected Muhammad Zafrulla Khan of Pakistan as president, succeeding Mongi Slim of Tunisia. Zafrulla defeated G. P. Malalase'kera of Ceylon, 72-27 in a secret ballot. Elects New Members The assembly then completed its first day’s work by electing to membership the African countries of Rwanda and Burundi and the two former British Caribbean colonies of Jamaica and Trinidad-and-Tobago. Two more countries are expected to gain membership at this assembly session, raising the number of seats to 110. They are the British African territory of Uganda, which becomes independent Oct. 9, and Algeria, which postponed its application until after national elections.

Another Red Test Detected Tuesday WASHINGTON (UPn — The Atomic Energy Commission AEC announced another Soviet atmospheric test Tuesday the third in as many days and the 13th the commission has an nounced in the current series. It said the Siberian blast had a “Yield of a few megatons.” OH I M b. “APPLE PIE ’63”—Mrs. Erwin J.

Answer Questions On Sabin Vaccine

EDITOR’S NOTE — U. 8. communities are divided on the question of whether to go ahead with polio immunisation programs using the Babin oral vaccine. Here, in question and answer form, are the views of the U.B. Public Health Service. WASHINGTON (UPI) - What are the risks in taking Sabin oral polio vaccine and are they worth taking? The Public Health Service (PHS) gives these answers to questions about the vaccine: Q. Is Sabin live polio vaccine sate or should the American public rely on Salk dead polio vaccine for protection against the disease 9 A. Salk vaccine is safe for persons in all age groups. AU three types of Sabin vaccine are safe for children and both types I and II are safe for adults. Q. Does that mean adults should not take Sabin type III? A. Surgeon General Luther L. Terry recommends that adults refrain from taking doses of Sabin type 111, unless they are in an epidemic area or plan to be tourists in a high risk area. Q. Why is type 111 restricted for adults and not for children? A. The special Advisory Committee on Poliomyelitis Control reviewed 16 polio cases that followed administration of oral vaccine doses and determined that 11—involving persons aged 16 to 52—had “possible association’’ to use of type 111 Sabin vaccine. Q. What about the other five cases? A. The surgeon general said “it must be recognized that over the course of nine months in the experience of the whole country, during which approximately 40 million doses of oral vaccine have been administered, some purely coincidental cases of poliomyelitis can be expected to have Occurred.” Q. Is the PHS blaming Sabin vaccine for any of the cases? A. The connection has not been proved, if it exists, but the advisers believe ‘‘at least some” of the 11 cases were caused by the vaccine because they consider the number too high to label as mere coincidence. Q. What is the total number of type 111 doses administered in the United States? A. The total for type 111 is about 13 miUion, but there is no breakdown by age. Q. Hie PHS recommends that children continue taking Sabin oral doses, even type 111, so does this mean there is no risk for children? A. The risk to children is exceedingly slight or non-existent. Q. What is the risk for adults taking type 111 Sabin vaccine? A. The risk is slightly less than

one in a million for P***?? 8 but “higher" for adult*. tte risk of an adult getting pllto Without taking Sabin vaccine la les* than one In a million—and leas than one in two million for persons over age 40. Q. In other words, adults are safer not taking Sabin type 111 than taking it? A. Yea, unless they are in a high risk area, such as an epidemic area or visiting in a country where there are more polio cases than in the United States. Under these conditions, an adult would have the percentages with him by taking type 111 vaccine. Q. But the reverse is true for children? A. Yes. Children are in greater danger of catching polio without Sabin vaccine than they are of possibly catching polio from the dose of type 111. Slightly Wanner Weather In State By United Press Internationa! A wave of slightly warmer air aided by a cloud cover tocfc the edge oft Indiana’s latest autumn chili today. But there was nothing in the forecasts and outlooks for the next five days to indicate any summertime temperatures would return, although summer officially stays with us until 7:53 a.m. Sunday. In fact, lows in the 40s probably will prevail nightly into next week. In contrast to Tuesday’s early morning lows in the 40s, this morning's readings were in the 50s ranging from 50 at Evansville to 57 at Lafayette. But tonight it will be cooler again with lows in the 40s from Lake Michigan to the Ohio River. Furthermore, the temperatures through next Monday will average 3 to 6 degrees below normal north and 4 to 8 degrees below normal central and south. Only minor day-to-day changes were expected. Highs Tuesday ranged from 71 at Indianapolis and South Bend to 76 at Lafayette. Highs today will range from 66 to the low 70s, and highs Thursday from the upper 60s to around 70. A sprinkle or two tell in the Indianapolis and Fort Wayne areas this morning. But the forecasts indicated it will clear by tonight and remain that way at least through Friday. Rainfall the next five days will range from one-tenth to one-fourth inch north and one-half inch elsewhere occurring as showers over ihe weekend.
