Loss Of Markets Seen
In Latin America
With Axis Victory
Historical Society
Hears DR.. Roy Davis,
Former Diplomat

II Hitler wins the war and achieves
the economic domination of Europe,
the United States will lose the
greater part of its Latin American
market. DR.. Roy Tasco Davis, presi-
dent of National Park College,
warned last night. Addressing the
S18th meeting of the Columbia His
torical Society at the Mayf1ower
Hotel, he declared that the Axis, if
It emerges the victor from the pres
ent conflict, will be in better posi-
ton, by barter or otherwise, to deal
with South and Central American
countries than the United States.
"I do not fear Axis military pene-
tration In Latin America" DR.. Davis
told the society" do fear, however,
its economic penetration. If Hitler
wins, Axis-dominated Europe will
need the raw materials and the
foodstuffs of Latin America, such as
wheat, corn and meat"
"SIave Labor" Competition.
IN return, Latin American coun-
tries will be offered the manu1ac-
tured goods of Europe. produced
through slave labor so cheaply that
we cannot compete with Europe he
said.
Under such conditions, even If
they hate everything Hitler repre-
sents," Latin America will do busi-
ness with Europe, DR.. Davis pre-
dicted. The United States can still
live without this trade, but it will
be necessary for us to tighten our
belts" he said.
Central American Experiences"
was the subject of DR.. Davis talk.
As United States Minister to sew
eral countries he spent more than
10 years in Central America. In
1928 he served as chairman of the
Honduran Guatemalan Boundary
Commission, and in 1888 he was
United States delegate to the North
American Radio Conference, held at
Mexico City.
He recounted his experiences as
chairman of the boundary COM
mission in 1928, when Guatemala
and Honduras stood at the brink of
war. He also reviewed his part in
helping to end revolution in Pana-
ma in 1890 by proposing that the
five members of the Supreme Court
Of that country act as commission
to set up new government.
Cites Z. S. Mistake.
At times in the past the United
States has made the mistake of
trying to tell Latin-American coun-
tries what kind of governments they
should have" he declared. 1T is not
our business to make these govern
ments over" he said. I'VE should
let them have the type of govern
ment they want, as long as they
maintain law and order"
Costa Rica, inhabited by strong
and sturdy race" has a real de-
mocracy," he declared.
Allen c. Clark, president of the
society, presided at the meeting, the
final one of the season.

Nonura Will
Give Greetings

Washington, Feb. 14-UP- Ad-
miral Kichisaburo Nomura pre-
sents his credentials to President
Roosevelt today as Japan's new
ambassador TO the United States.
The ceremony, usually only a
formal exchange OF greetings, will
have added significance because Of
unconfirmed reports that Japan
may be planning a more active
role as an ally Of Germany and
Italy.
Nomura, known as a moderate"
was sent here TO attempt to patch
up American-Japanese relations.
He has admitted that his job has
almost nsurmountable obstacles.
but has been quoted as believing
that war between the United States
and Japan would be a calamity.
In view OF the strained relations
between the two countries. the
Nomura-Roosevelt exchange of
greetings today will be examined
closely IL they go beyond formali
ties. Nomura and Mr.. Roosevelt
are old friends.
But Nomura's fatherland stands
among the nations which United
States officials havs accused of
fomenting war. Secretary OF State
Cordell Hull last month said Japan
had torn down the fabric Of interna-
ticnal peace agreements by invad-
ing Manchuria.
Mr.. Roosevelt, however, warned
reporters Tuesday that they were
not to deduce that there would be
war in the Pacific when he said an
outbreak of such hostilities would
not reduce American aid TO Brit
ain.

Penalty For Interference
in Defense Work Now
Two Years, Fine
(Ry United Pressl

Lansing. Feb. 14-UP - The
Brake anti-Ybotage bill, target OF
labor's hot objections, went to the
floor of the senate today in modi-
fed form that stripped it of its
broad sweeping powers.
So severely amended by the
committees on labor and judiciary
that it virtually was rewritten. the
bill was made more specific in its
provisions, and made applicable
only until 80 days following the
adjournment Of the l943 legislative
session.
Cited by labor as "pernicious and
unnecessary" and a "sanctification
Of private property at the expense
Of human freedom" the bill under
went revision designed to modify
its authority. Among the amend
ments was the reduction in the
penalty for interference with the
defense program from a maximum
OF 10 years imprisonment or $l0,-
900 fine, to two years or $1,000.
During executive sessions yester-
day. the senate confirmed two ad-
ditional Van Wagner appoint
ments-Thomas Donahue. Detroit,
to the state labor mediation board,
and Joseph D. Hadley, Detroit, 20
the unemployment compensation
appeal board. Donahue succeeds
A. c. Lappin to a term ending
