American AIoofness
Playing Into Hands Of
kozis in Amazon
By ALLEN HADEN,

Foreisn Correspondent of The Star and
Chicaso Daily Dews.
BUENOS AIRES, Aug. 15.-Alarm
was expressed here today lest in
effectual mediation by Argentina,
Brazil and the United States in
the Peru Ecuador border warfare
play into the hands of South Amer
ican Nazis and accelerate a gigan-
tic pincers movement designed to
pry Dakar loose from Vichy, pinch
of Brazil and, ultimately the Pam
anna Canal Zone.
Every South American politician,
diplomat and newspaperman with
whom I have talked warns of the
dire consequences ahead If what
is a minor frontier dispute is al
lowed to develop into a confiagra-
ton because OF week-kneed efforts
at pacification.
Sufficient means exist. it is point
ed out, to force settlement of the
scrap. America has military and
air missions in both Peru and
Ecuador
Ideal Situation for Nazis.
These critics charge that WASH
ington's leadership in the Joint
mediation efforts with Argentina
and Brazil is utterly futile. 1t has
gone on for three and one-half
months while Ecuador and Peru
swapped charges of bad faith. and
the result has only been TO breed
chaotic conditions ideal for Nazi
agents whose single purpose Is TO
keep the fight alive.
Brazil stands in particular dan
ger from the NaZi Vaccinations. Il
is felt certain that the Nazis' aim
is to focus their operations in the
wild Upper Amazon region parallel
with an attempt on Dakar. While
Washington talks tough TO Vichy,
already under the Nazi military
boot, and fails to force Peru and
Ecuador to come to terms over a
nonexistent border in unexplored
jungle. Nazi agents continue to
operate in the Amazonian districts
of Zarumillo and Loreto. oblivious
to the soft words and legal quota
tions whispered in Undersecretsry
of State Sumner Welles' Office.
Students of Brazilian affairs are
convinced that unless the media
1f
American powers succeed quickly
Brazil sooner or later must settle
the Peru-Ecuador quarrel alone.
And nothing would suit the Nazis
better than to involve Brazil in
the dispute for they are well aware
that the ultranationalists in Argen-
tina would seize that moment to
inflame the ever latent rivalry
between this country and Brazil.
Brazil Threatened.
1t Is obvious that if the United
States were threatened by a Ger
man-controlled Dakar, Brazil would
be in a far worse boat, faced with
a German Dakar and a German
controlled Upper Amazon at its
rear A gigantic Nazi pincer move
ment is thus envisaged. Brazil
would be the first TO be caught
between the two fulcrums with
Natal at its hump-nearest point
to Dakar-the middle point.
Natal. it will be remembered. is
the first port of call on the west

Islands of the Italian trans Atlantic
