to act for them. I'd never done a

fairly good and was full of pep. and
I found that nobodyd talk to me

WASHINGTON, June %. The
recent White House announcement
of a plan for an economic union
of North and South America SYM
bOli7eS this governments conviction
that the United States is entering
a new and pCrpleXing world order
profoundly unlike anything it ever
dreamed of before
This plan for an international
cartel to handle all new world eX-
port SURPRISES is based on a the
orv expressed roughly as follows:
Hitler Is going to dominate Eu-
rope The immediate menace to
America will be economic rather
than military, although the two
are tied together. To meet this
menace. this nation must do
number of very expensive and
complicated things wholly aside
from building up its army and
navy.
This theory may be wrong-va-
riouS people in Congress believe it
is Nevertheless. it represents dom
inant administration thinking.
PLAN OUTLINES
ARE NOT NEW
Although FDR Sprang the idea
before the plan had been perfected
the broad outlines of the program
are not new. Two years ago the
agriculture ard state departments
began intensive studies of the
chances for a closer economic tie-up
between North and South America,
with an eye to the increasing econ-
omic penetration by the totalitarian
states.
Following their studies. broad
interdepartmental committee rep
resenting nearly all of the major
governmental departments and bu-
reaus took over the Job. Further
studies were made BY still another
group composed of representatives
of the U. S. and various Latin
American governments ard of pri-
Vatc business.
Upshot of all this was a convlc-
ton that there was a great deal
that the u S. could do. but that
it would be pretty expensive.
The United States now buys
about S400000. 600 worth of South
American agricultural products per
year. If money we're available for
internal development on the south
crn continent. this total could be
increased SubStantially-and u. S.
exports would 90 up accordingly.
We could, for instance, get most of
our rubber .cinchona, kapok. tea,
cocoa camphOr ard tropical hard
woods there if VIC could finance
expanded production of those goods.
HITLER WOULD
SPEND PLENTY
But that, according to the theory
prevailing in Washington only
scratches the surface. For if this
country buys 400 millions in South
American goods each year, Europe
has been buying from South Amer
lea more than three times that

Each farmers allotment is his
prOpOrtiOnate share of the 1871 ma
tional wheat allotment Of 81 mil
lion acres, which is the same as
the 1910 national allotment. That
the 1941 national allotment is the
the same as that for this year is
an indication Of the progress U. S.
farmers have made in stabilizing
wheat supplies under the AAA
Farm Program.
Officials Of the U. S. Department
of Agriculture state that the re-
serve of wheat carried over from
the 1910 crop and average yields
on the 1871 allotment will assure
enough wheat for all domestic
needs and the foreign demand an
