By E. r. GUAM

We spent all day auto riding, going
some 10 miles to the center Of the
coffee plantations. We had q close
up view OF farming community, and
crossed . mountain ridge to reach our
objective. There was fog, and . raw
wind was blowing In tho hills. The
summer overcoat was donned for the
first time during our visit In Brazil,
but only for an hour while riding In
the car. The temperature rose at
noon. making 1t very warm. Natives
In the cities are often seen In their
overcoats. They say It helps to keep
out the heat when the sun becomes
too hot! We shall take their word
for 1t.
The place we visited, especially,
was q sort Of agricultural expert
mental farm where various kinds Of
coffee, bananas. beans. cotton, etc i.
were planted. The methods OF reap.
ing, "threshing." washing. sorting,
disinfecting. and sacking coffee were
shown.
Cotton Experiment Interesting
A laboratory for tho scientific study
Of cotton culture was, perhaps, even
moro interesting. It has been found
that cotton can be grown very salts.

few years cotton will replace . large

abruptly through picturesque can
yons. The descent land ascent) was
made by means Of cables and power
full machinery both at the top and at
the bottom. Cliffs and cascades
abounded on both sides. The whole
distance was about so miles.
After lunch in Santos, We had q
ride about town and visited the cof.
fee exchange In the midst Of active
session, coffee warehouses, coffee
sorting and testing plants. the wide,
noisy surf-beaten beaches. and q
mountain peak In the middle Of the
city from which the whole panorama
Of Santos could be enjoyed at leisure.
Tribute to Washington
In the evening there was q sur
prise-a banquet-in honor Of Wash
ington's birthday. Two or three OF
us had been forewarned to some ex-
tent for the reason that some talks.
or speeches, were expected. A large
American flag was displayed In front
Of the orchestra. Recognizable Ameri-
can tunes were played, but since we
couldn't sing the Brazilian National
song at the beginning. we were ad-
vised not to sing anything pertaining
to the U. s. A., and we did not want
to offend.

place. Everything, including the bed
clothes. in our very palatial hotel,
seems to have q nlusty odor. Santos
has about 100000 inhabitants who are
said to be more purely Portuguese
than thnse in anv other large city
In Brazil.

Moscow. March 20.-(P-The Red

necessary for the defense Of the
country in the face Of what was term
ed Germany's preparation OF war, the
newspaper Pravds said Wednesday.
The authoritative publ ! o n
charged England with aiding the
plans OF Reichsfuehrer Hitler by de-
serting France, I.aly and other coun-
tries which wanted to coordinate
their forces against the German
project to divide up Europe"
If the German government em-
phatically refused to give any kinds
of guarantees of safety" Pravda con-
tinued. land armed itself heavily In
order to impose q new war on Euro
pc, it dared to take this step only
owing to the position Of British i'm
perialism.
"Nazi Germany has decided to put
the frontiers Of all countries Of
Europe under question in view Of the
fact English imperialism with all its
forces is preventing coordinated ac-
tion by those against whom the arm
aments Of Nazi Germany represent q
direct danger"
But. warned the paper, "the peo-
Piles Of Europe and above all the peo-
pie Of the great Soviet Union will
never pay tribute to the German
Nazis. Those who are playing with
fire must be warned that II com.
pelled to fight, the enraged masses
will fall on their heads with terrible
strength"
In summation. Pravda declared,
"the German government has insist
ed on its will. England has CAPT.
tulated. This is no less important
for Germany than was the introd-
uction OF compulsory military service
itself. -
