mended to President Roosevelt, the
United States would spend close to
100000 next year on IA projects
to tie the Americas closer together.
Educational, scientific and road
building work would be included.
Why all this activity?
There are indications that Italy,
Japan, and especially Germany, arc
making, or trying to make, inroads
in Latin America. That, to the
America for Americans" advocates,
seems like excuse enough.
Germany operates nearly 1000
miles of commercial airhnes among
Latin American capitals and runs
regular airmail service between
Europe and South America. Those
airlines could be converted to mill
tary use in time OF need. Aside
from the United States, France, with
about 5000 miles of airlines, is the
only other air power on the scene
in Latin America.
Some writer's insist that the Nazis
are financing shirt" societies all
over both continents and, with the
Japanese, buying vital oil at bargain
prices from Mexico.
Clandestine Arms Traffic.
"In Essen, Germany" says DR..
David Efron, a New York college
professor from Argentina, there
Evening star., 1938-12-09

exists a special Nazi organization
devoted to clandestine trafdc In
armaments in Latin America.
There is an Italian Fascist-con-
trolled factory Of Caproni airplanes
IN the vicinity Of Lima, Peru.
Officers Of the italian Ovra
Italian secret police) are instruct
ing Peruvian police forces. .
There are Na1 maps Of 'antartic
Germany including parts of Argen-
tina, Brazil and Uruguay. -.
"Nazi Germany is giving away
hundreds of radio sets in Latin
America which can receive only
news from Germany. :"
Whether or not this information
is accurate much of it must have
reached Uncle Sans political and
military leaders, for they are boost
ing estimates of our required reg
ular army strength from 100000
to 10000 men.
Secretary of War, Harry Wood
ring has just reported in effect that
the Panama Canal defenses are
vulnerable, especially from the air,
and must be made inpregnable.
Such sign posts mean the strug-
gle for influence in South America
Is on.
That struggle involves a great
continent and 100000 people.
South America resources rank
Evening star., 1938-12-09

standing of the masses on the sister
continents.
Speaking generally (because there
have been warnings that Argentina
for one will burn no European
bridges) their aim is American
solidarity. Their work is part of
Americas answer to the inflltration
of totalitarian commerce and propa-
ganda in the last few years.
The rest of the answer is the ex-
change of military and naval mis-
sions among the powers of the two
continents, and Uncle Sans most
ambitious peacetime military and
naval program.
Previously Assured Canada.
After the Old Worlds Munich con-
ference remade the map of Europe,
President Roosevelt voiced hope for
military strength to make Uncle
Sam the actual as well as theoreti-
cal guardian of the New World.
Previously, he had assured Canada
that the United States would not
stand idly by If Canada should be
attacked.
This program and these senti-
ments, it should be noted, have
not won universal approval. In the
United States certain peace advo-
Gates and others have denounced
them as excuses for building up
armaments beyond reason. In
South America warnings still are
printed against the designs of the
Yankees.
But American naval and mill
tary men are talking about Pan
American front against NaZi and
Fascist activities in South Amer
lea. The United States is about to
send naval and military mission
to Colombia, whose boundaries are
close to our vital Panama Canal
Already we have naval mission
of eight officers and a military
mission of four in Brazil; four
naval advisers and eight Army men
in Argentina; four naval experts
in Peru; two Army men in Haiti
and one in Guatemala.
And Assistant Secretary of State
Sumner Welles has just hinted we
may expand such groups in South
America. He didn't say what these
missions would do, but generally
it is assumed they would try to
integrate the military defense sys-
TENS of various South American
nations so as to make them COM
Elementary to our own in the event
of a common war.
In addition, the United States
owned Pan-American and Grace
passenger and mail ali lines girdle
the whole South American conti-
nent-nearly $4,000 miles of well
equipped airways that could be
transformed into a continental de-
tense system.
100000 Tons of Sea Armament.
Most important. a total of more
than million and a half tons of
naval armaments - the combined
fleets of the United States and her
southern neighbors-is available for
common continental defense. That's
more tonnage than England boasts
and 100000 tons of it is Uncle
Sans own.
Also, under program recon-
Evening star., 1938-12-09

below only those Of the United
States, Russia. and possibly China.
But Latin America is potentially
rich. The world gets most Of its
coffee from Brazil and Columbia,
most Of its sugar from Cuba. Ar
gentina is the No. exporter Of corn
and meat, Mexico is tops in silver
production, and Chile ranks second
only to the United States In copper
output.
Latin American nations have much
in common with Uncle Sam. Many
Of them honor our system of de-
mocracy, even though they don't
always practice 1t. Our universities
attract their industrially conscious
citizens.
In addition to our more than a
half-billion- dollar yearly trade
stake in Latin America, we also
have close to 5000, 900 900 invested
there directly and through bond
holdings-greater than our invest
ments elsewhere on the globe. Uncle
Sans eyes are truly turned toward
the south. And it's In the south,
at Lima, Peru, that the Pan-Amer-
lean. Conference opens today.

Cobb, Of London, England. failed
in his first attempt today to wrest
the world land speed record of
345.49 miles an hour from his
countryman. Capt. E. T. Eyston.
The 38-year-old fur broker
blamed his failure on his unfa-
miliarity with the beetle-shaped
racer which he guided.
II was clumsy in shifting the
gears" Cobb said, which
caused me to stall between the
third and fourth mile on the
return run SOUTH"
The challenger's attempt fizzled
when he failed to run through
the measured mile twice consecu'
lively within one hour.
No official time was announced,
but Cobb said he reached a speed
of 1926 miles an hour. He said
he would make another trial
within three or four days.
