tween Chile and the United States
as their first objective.
A high Colombian official said the
project had been undertaken by
Presidents Alfonso Lopez of Colom-

at their neighborly good will con-
ference here.
The informant said the two Presi-
dents had discussed at length the
possible methods of winning fuller
support from Chile and of then try
ing to win Argentina over.

Braden was formerly Ambassador
to Colombia and significantly was

Of Portugal Is Wed
To Princess in Brazil
RoyoI Ceremony Is First
Performed in Americas
In Lost 70 Yeors

PETROPOLIS. Brazil, Oct. 16.-
Prince Duarte Nuno, the Duke OF
Braganca and pretender to the
throne of Portugal, and Princess

the Americas in 7s years.
The bride is %, the bridegroom
IS. A civil ceremony was. performed
two days ago.
The wedding took place in the
huge, still unfinished cathedral
started during the reign of Dom
Pedro II last century in this little
city lodged in the precipitous peaks
high above Rio de Janeiro.
The war, which has left Brazil
virtually without gasoline, caused a
strange aftermath for the wedding.
Following the ceremony, the elabo-
rately gowned Princess and formally
clothed Duke with their royal at
tendants walked several blocks over
the cobbled streets to Grao Para
Palace, where more than 1000 Bra
zilians and foreigners attended their
reception.
The Princess and her sister, Prin-
cesa Theresa, arrived a few days ago
by plane from New York after long
visit in the United States. She and
her family live in Brazil by permis-
sion granted in 1922 by the late
President Epitacio Pessoa which re-
CARDS them as private citizens" The
Duke was permitted to enter Brazil
only after agreeing to forego any
plans for restoration of a monarchy
here. -...
The newlyweds plan to fly to
Switzerland for a honeymoon in a
villa owned by Dom Luiz Ulrich OF
London. They expect to live either
in Switzerland or Seville, Spain.
The bride is great granddaugh-
ter of Dom Pedro II, last Emperor
of Brazil. Prince Duarte Is a great
grandson of Dom Miguel, who be-
came King of Portugal.
Archbishop Dom Benedito de
Souza performed the ceremony.
Dom Carlos de Bourbon, pretender
to the Spanish throne, was a sponsor
by proxy for the Duke. The Count
and Countess Of Paris were sponsors
by proxy for the Princess. The Count
