The State of Metropotamia If Thomas Jefferson’s original Northwest Territory plan had been accepted, Decatur and Adams county would today be located in the state of Metropotamia! After the last legislative session, and the announcement that state government will have to be expanded now to administer the new sales tax, maybe it would have been better that way. The Northwest Territory, as established in 178387, included what are now the state of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and part of Minnesota. Os course at that time, in the 1780’s, the British still actually controlled the area, and most of the inhabitants were French and Indian. The British had purposely kept settlers out of the area and when the Revolution ended, and the war veterans wanted payment for their services, land was the logical way in a poor country with rich pub-■'-v lie land. In March, 1784, the continental congress, then running the country, named Thomas Jefferson, a member of the congress, to head a committee to formulate a plan of surveying, governing, and dividing the territory. This committee did valuable work, setting up the Congressional township system, which resulted in our present “six by six” division of almost the entire country. As originally proposed, however, it was suggested that the territory be carved into ten states, which would have made them more the size of the smaller New England states than the larger states of Virginia and Pennsylvania, both of whom had claimed the area. — In fact, the committee even discussed Greektype names for the area divided: Sylvania, for the northern penninusla of Michigan, and north Wisconsin and Minnesota; Michigania for southern Wisconsin; Chersoneusu for Michigan north of Lansing to the straits; Metropotamia for Southern Michigan, Northern Indiana, and Northern Ohio; Washington for the south two-thirds of Ohio (the General owned a good part of it!); Saratoga for SouthCentral Indiana, and Pelisipia for the southern tip; Polypotmia for the Little Egypt section of Illinois; Illinoia for the central part, and Assenisipia for the northern part, with a little from southern Wisconsin. Every school boy can be glad that such names weren’t chosen!

Complex Problems In Latin America

EDITOR’S NOTE: The foreign news analyst of United Press International has just completed a 25,000-mile assignment in Latin America where the United States has committed $lO biUion over 10 years in the Alliance for Progress. Following is the first of ids five dispatches on the complex problems facing this program and these people. Assignment Latin America Colombia By PHIL NEWSOM UP! Foreign News Analyst BOGOTA — In sprawling Ciudad de Techo, a half hour’s bus ride from the center of Bogota, the brown face of Leopoldo Cristaeho wears a look of mingled pride, frustration and worry. The pride is in his new home The frustration, over the job still to be done. The worry, a matter of simple arithmetic which tells him he cannot pay for it. despite low interest rates and payments of only sl2 per month. Nature endowed Colombia richly. It has lush agricultural lands still open only to the airplane or the jeep. It has minerals, gold, platinum, emeralds. Vast jungles remain to be explored. But it also has an exploding population which increases at the rate of nearly three per cent per year and which threatens to outstrip its industrial gains. An unskilled peasantry hoping to escape the banditry and poverty of the countryside crowds in upon the cities to the still greater poverty of the crowded shacks which crawl antlike up the mountain sides. Unemployment is increasing and inflation has boosted the cost of living nearly 25 per cent in the last four and a half months. More than 60 per cent of the people are illiterate. Hopes For Progress In Bogota, Colombia’s cloudswept capital 8.500 feet high in the Andes Mountains, there is vast government good will toward the United States and the ideal-

Ball State and are anxious to soon become a part of the campus life. — A. C. H. S — Saturday evening the alumni banquet was held at Adams Central. R. Nelson Snider, principal from South Side at Fort Wayne, was guest speaker for the evening. Seniors were inittiated by diring tricycles, taking wheel-barrel rides jumping on pogo sticks, and senior girls proposing to senior guys helped add to the hysteria of the evening. I — A. C. H. S — Tuesday evening the Dramatics club presented “An Evening of Comedy ” Skits and one-act plays kept the audience laughing during the entire evening. The program was a “howling” success! — A. C. H. S — Welcome back. Mr. Collier! Centralites hope you’re feeling much better and are centrainly glad to see you once again! — A. C. H. S — Friday evening May 3, the Adams Central spring concert will be held in the gym at 7:30. Tickets will be sold at the door with the prices as follows: Adults, 50 cents, and students, 25 cents. Everyone be sure to attend! — A. C. H. S — “Let’s have the sport of under water basket weaving!” That’s the proposal of Mike Busse. Tuesday, Mike “bumped” his nose playing volleyball and is now proposing a sport with less bodily contact. Hope your nose is well soon, Mike! — A. C. H. S — DECATUR CATHOLIC HIGH By Joan Gase The grad eMH| school held its 7 sl jSESffiaSggJ regular monthly''.. sodality mooting Friday. April 26, with Mary Ann Spangler prcrJd « W ing. A special feature for the occasion was presentation of a playlet, ‘‘Th Patience of Job.” The play was adapted from the Bible by Ronald Massonne, a sixth grade boy. In (Continued on Page Three-A)

ism contained in the S2O billion Alliance for Progress program. And only a tugging impatience that the job cannot go faster. Colombia hopes for a five per cent increase in gross national product annually over the next 10 years, and to help it the Alliance already has allocated to Colombia more than $l6O million in aid. But tax loopholes still permit the wealthy to avoid their taxes, and the inflationary spiral touched off by devaluation of the peso coupled with a general wage increase for city workers hit hardest the small coffee grower, the man most in need of help. From earlier hopes of a balanced budget, the government’s position has deteriorated to the point where now a deficit of at least SIOO million is anticipated. The other side of the coin is the country’s relative political stability as compared with the remainder of South America, and the fact that leftist forces are scattered and lack strong leadership. Alliance Builds Project Leopoldo Cristacho is a SSO-per-month policeman recently removed from a Bogota slum with his wife and four children to Ciudad de Techo, a huge housing project under the Alliance for Progress. It lies whitely in the sun and dust now, only partially completed. But eventually it will provide homes for 85,000 people who now live 8 and 10 to a room in the unsanitary hopelessness of the slums which press in upon Bogota from all sides. Cristacho and his family formerly lived in a two-room flat which cost him $5 per month. It had no lighting, hot water or plumbing facilities. His new home will have all of that The plumbing has been installed, but neither the water nor the electricity has been connected. Cristacho figures his expenses at sl2 per month for his mortgage. $lO a month for improvements, $lO for clothing and around S3O for food. Like his government, he is over his budget. Heads Government Present head of the government is President Guillermo Leon Valencia, a courtly man with a greying leonine head of hair, the son of one of Colombia’s great national poets. In an interview with this correspondent, he described Colombia as an “open window’’ ready to exhibit the fruits of the Alliance for Progress, but, he added, a window which still is mostly empty. “But upon the Alliance,” he said, “depends the future of all of South America. Either democracy will flourish or the whole continent must sink into misery and chaos. “In that evet, a Communist take-over is inevitable.” Start Is Made But, great as are Colombia’s problems, a start is being made. U. S. Ambassador Fulton Freeman presents a partial list: 31,175 houses started in 1962, 155 classrooms built, 300 started and contracts let for nearly 1,200 more, 24 public health centers built, and 96 million pounds of food distributed under “Food for Peace.” And thoughtful Colombians cling to the belief that if any South American nation can achieve Alliance goals, theirs is the one.

Modern Etiquette By Roberta Lee 0 0 Q. What sort- of dress should a woman wear to an afternoon social event? ~ A. The best poEcy is to wear the simplest sort of daytime dress in which you look especiaUy well. You need not worry if you are not “dressed” as much as the others. The time really to worry is when you are dressed “too much.” Q. Is it considered proper to repeat a person’s name when you are acknowledglng an introduction? A. Not only proper, but practical, too. Many persons have trouble remembering the names of people to whom they are introduced. Repeating the name, as “How do you do, Mr. Galloway,” helps to imprint the name in onj’s memory, and indicates too that you are paying some attention to the introduction. Q. When eating with a fork, may pieces of meat be speared with the fork held prongs-down? A. It is all to spear the meat with down-pointing prongs, but the fork should be ilfted to the mouth with the prongs upward.
