SEPT. 180 Water Too High, li

. PAN-AMERICAN * SESSION DRAWS “MAN IN STREET

Many Nationalities Found in Daily Gathering. Outside Meeting.

By THOMAS L. STOKES Times Special Writer PANAMA CITY, Panama, Sept. 29. —A crowd gathers daily before the Administration Building of National University here and stands patiently during deliberations of the conference of Pan-American foreign ministers, idly watching and. chatting. It gets a brief stir of excitement, on the occasion of plenary sessions, from a military spectacle—a band, a troop of cavalry which clatters up and down the street, Panamanian infantry standing in closed ranks before the building. On: the more frequent occasions when the foreign ministers gather solemnly for secret session about a big table in an airy room on the secand floor, the only interest is in watching the visiting dignitaries come and go. But the crowd .continues to watch. The people in this Panama crowd are of all colors, many nationalities, and ' varying blood strains, some

mixed. They represent the millions.

of common people who live in Central America to the north anc on the great continent to the south.

Unity Often Sought

Many attempts have been made to draw them closer together, among themselves and. with the United States, to,lift them over the barriers of rivalries and jealousies—barriers often raised by their own rulers, usually dictatorial in character, for their own political purposes. The present attempt offers more hope of success than others because these people now are confronted by a common threat, directly of disrupted trade and comestic economies; vaguely of possible involvement in ‘a war that rages far away across the Atlantic. In the tall, austere U. S. Undersecretary of State, Sumner Welles, they see the symbol of hope to keep out of Europe’s war, to salvage their trade losses, to rebuild broken-down economies, for he represents the rich and powerful nation -to the north. Delegates here, particularly from the smaller countries, have come with their hands out, eagerly. . Welles Is Cautious Realizing the power behind him,

Mr. Welles yet proceeds deftly, deli- |: *

cately, unobtrusively, in order not.to let slip the golden opportunity now offered. For all public purposes, he might be just another delegate. At the plenary sessions he sits at the end of a row of seats, literally in a corner of the hall, next to the Haitian Foreign Minister. He is reserved, - but extremely courteous in all his dealings. He came here with a carefully worked out program of measures to protect: the neutrality of the Amer-

.icas' and keep this hemisphere free

. from war. These included proposed

y N

extension of territorial waters to create a peace zone reaching far into the Atlantic; and other proposals to

protect American economies from,

the shocks of war, to re-coup trade lost abroad, with United States financial assistance, and to squelch, once and for all, the threatened Nazi and Fascist ideological and commercial invasion from across the ocean. Discuss ‘Safety Band’ The United States and Cuba, seeking a ‘safety band” to safeguard the New World from Europe’s war, were expected to submit a compromise program to the conference today. Mr. Welles and Cuban Secretary of State Miguel Angel Campa conferred as a special subcommittee to map final plans for a “safety band” expected to extend 300 miles from the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of all nations, except Canada, if the Western Hemisphere, A wide divergency of views was seen in discussions of proposals concerning. hemispheric neutrality, activities of belligerent submarines

“nomic “black lists.” Extended debate

on these issues was expected to delay a final draft of the conference’s stand beyond the hoped-for adjourriment Monday. Expediency Dictates Cohesion Cohesion and co-operation now are dictated by expediency growing from ‘the war emergency Latin America now has great need of the help, protection and leadership of the United States, particularly in an the Units way which, after all, is the most compelling influence. ‘The rich and powerful uncle has favors at

Reich U-Boat Commander Tells How His Crew Sank Courageous. BERLIN, Sept. 29 (U. P.).—The crew of the German submarine that

sank the British aircraft carrier Courageous knew its task was

-| “tough” but functioned in the spirit

of “hurting the enemy whenever

you can.” The U-boat’s commander told a German radio audience. His story was re-broadcast in the United States. The commander, whose name was not revealed, has been awarded the Iron Cross first-class. His crew received second-class Iron Crosses. Describing the attack in the present tense, the commander said: “I see the upper deck structure and extend the perisops a little, It's an aircraft carrier. . I know it will be a tough task. . . “Every man knows that it’s ulti-
