 Among other close friends are the Axel Wenner- -Grens, on whose yacht "The Southern Cross" the Wlndsors went to Miami in December.

 THE SECRET
 OF HER CHIC
 We had been talking on the broad terrace overlooking the ex- tensive government gardens which, in spite of vast quantities of lush, blooming hibiscus, could very well use little of the interest n-gar- dening which the Windsors were supposed to have exhibited a few years ago in England.
 The Duchess is even better look ing than her pictures. The secret of her great chic--a model for the world of fashion--lies not only in her ability to wear the right ] accessories, but in her posture. It's perfect. She and the Duke are the same height, but she appears to be a bit taller than he because she stands straighter.
 Her coltl-ice-cold-blue eyes and her white even teeth are her best features. Her smile is more bril- liantly flashing than warm. Her hand-claSp Is flrm-much stronger than the average woman's.

Brazil Believed Ready
To Accompany u. 5.
To War Against Axis
Roosevelt Given Large
Share of Credit for
Existence Of Opinion
First OF T,Do Articles.)
By ALLEN HADEN.

by ALLEN hADEN.
CHICAGO Daily News Foreign Correspondent
RIO DE JANEIRO, Jan. 16 (By
Clipper Many opinions gathered
by this correspondent in Brazil sum
up to a belief that Brazil must and
will accompany the United States
to war alongside Great Britain to
preserve the American way of life.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt can
take a large share of credit for
the existence of that opinion. In
Brazil, he rates second only to Presi-
dent DR.. Getulio Vargas.
Brazilians accept the dreadful
prospect of war Realistically. AS
they reason, the world is mad, but
if there is no escape, then Bra
zilians must make war, for the sake
of their country and their political
independence.
hasten to add that the opinions
which I adduce are those of Bra
zilians from various social classes,
and are not the always more or
less partisan opinions Of foreigners
and diplomats.
Reasons for That Opinion.
Reasons given fall under three
general headings: (a Imprinted
but spoken opinion of the mass Of
the Brazilian people, Cb) Brazil's
position in the American family Of
nations, with particular reference to
the United States, and Co gen.
eralizations concerning Brazil's
place in the world
1t is a commonplace to hear that
80 per cent Of the Brazilian people
sympathiZe with Great Britain.
j. E. Macedo Soares. editor of the
Rio de Janeiro newspaper Diario
Carioca, says that 95 per cent of
the Brazilian people identify the
cause of England with the cause of
Christian civilization.
Reasons for this are many and 90
deep in the history and PSYCHOLOGY
of Brazil.
The period of order and progress
during the administration of Presi-
dent Vargas has now lasted 10 years
With the exception of the Sac Paulo
revolution in 1882, the Communist
movement in Natal in 1885. and the
Integralista coup in 1938-all of
which were small, and failed-the
last 10 years have provided Brazil
with breathing spell longer than
any except under the last empire.
The habit of revolution is being
lost, the habit of evolution is being
born.
Hitler's SmOkescreen of Words.
AS one of its adjuncts, turbulence

navy, cannot talk too loudly. Fur.
thermore, the conqueror is attempt-
ing to destroy the factor on which
Brazilian life is predicated. Like
the United States. Brazil's foreign
policy is based on the British Navys
controlling the Atlantic Ocean.
Mr.. Roosevelt, the President with
the greatest responsibility in the
Americas, and who might have been
supposed to bow to the winds of op-
portunity, despite the risks, hurled
defiance at the onmarch of the to-
talitarians.
That he was sincere in his words
OF pan-Americanism was obvious
from years of observation. With a
kind Of wonder, it was conceded that,
backed by Secretary of State Hull
and Undersecretary Sumner Welles,
he meant what he said. He was
backed also by the Export Import
Bank. This bank" is kind of SYM
Dol of concrete cooperation. 1t was
apparently true that when Brazil
was in trouble financially, it could
ask for loan and get it. And the
United States military and naval
officers on loan in Rio also helped;
they actually taught, and they
stayed away from politics.
Brazil's censorship hardly inter-
fered with the diffusion of informa-
ton. Compared to totalitarian CEN
sorship, there is none here. When
was began, the requirements of neu-
trality caused a slight increase in
control. Commentaries and edi-
torials and furious guests of partisan
wind were eliminated. 1t was almost
an advantage.
Newspapers then adopted a habit
indigenous to journals in the United
States, that of reproducing speeches
in full. without comment. This
eluded the cenSOrShip-With the full
approval of the censorship.
For the Brazilian has been taught
to read in the hard school of revo-
luton. The speeches of Mr.. Roose-
welt, Mr.. Hull, Mussolini and Hitler
were all reproduced teXtually, when
made. That is all that was needed.
Evening star., 1941-01-30

proportionately to the amount of
persuasion lavished on him.
Revolutions must justify them
selves. But experience with violent
men has taught that what is said is
often merely a cloak to hide a total
ly different intention. Brazilians, in
common with a large part OF South
America, therefore, read the reaS-
suring utterances of Herr Hitler and
the Goebbels opinion factory, and
nodded In complete understanding.
Over a period of years that under
standing was confirmed: Hitler was
billowing smokescreen of words.
No Brazilian was fooled or misun-
derstood that the opposite of what
was said was meant.
AS such, Brazil is better educated
politically than the United States.
There Is still q tradition in the
United States-a hardy perennial
despite repeated disappointments-
that the politician means approx
imately what he says. In Brazil, un-
til proved otherwise, John @. Citizen
suspects the politician, especially
the conquering one, to the last
comma.
Influence of Britain.
AS for the British, Brazil has had
centuries Of dealing with them,
mostly commercial. The course Of
empire is, furthermore, fully ap-
preciated. Brazil inherited an en-
pire, language. culture, a litera-
ture, from the Portuguese and the
500-year-old alliance between Por-
tugal and England has had its in
huence.
Forms also were the same. The
empires of Dom Pedro I and Dom
Pedro II would be called constitu-
tional monarchies today. When re-
publicaniSm was adopted here in
1889, its forms closely resembled
the forms Of democracy in Great
Britain. In both cases those forms
hid the purposes of control by a
small group in power, but the de-
riVatives were present. More or less
free press, free speech and freedom
of opportunity.
Today, therefore, the Brazilian
realizes that If Germany wins the
war, Brazils independent life is
threatened. If Great Britain wins,
the Brazilian knows his country is
not in danger.
President Roosevelt. however, has
been the greatest influence in de-
termining the course of public opin-
ion in favor of Great Britain. Mr..
Roosevelt has said the things every
Brazilian would like to say.
= A country with only potential
Evening star., 1941-01-30

Combined with the actions of each,
it was perfectly clear who was right
and who was wrong. The Brazilians
decided Great Britain was right,
that the United States was right
and that Brazil with them was on
the right side of the fence.
The ''all aid short of war" slogan
was a doubtful quantity, and was
used by the small but powerful pro-
totalitarian group. British reverses
and the fall of France, however,
hardly shook the confidence of the
Brazilian people, though these again
strengthened the pro-totalitarian
group.
It was Italian reverses in Albania
and North Africa which swept away
all doubt. 1t was obvious no system
could be right which, glorifying war,
was unable to make war.
