. BEHIND THE SCENES
IN WASHINGTON .

Twenty-three planes in an air
craft plant were apparently
sabotaged by placing glass in the
fluid of the hydraulic brake sys-
tenn. These bits of glass, which
would have chewed through the
rubber tube connections, were
extracted in the crime labora-
tory of the FBI headquarters in
Washington, and on examination
it was found that all the pieces
had curved surfaces, the glass
being of special heat-resistant
composition.
Investigation was then di-
rected to all possible sources of
such glass in this plant. 1t GEN.
tered finally on a FLOW meter"
used in testing the brakes. On
opening the chamber of the
meter, the missing pieces of the
glass test valve were discovered
and the cause of the accident
explained. During a night shift,
one of the valves had broken
and fallen into the chamber.
The operator had neglected TO
remove the broken glass and had
merely inserted a new valve and
gone on about his business. A
simple case of carelessness, but
the effect was the same as sab
Otage.

The vitality of Latin America
as a economic and political force
has been felt and accepted in
recent years even by the most
insular of her northern neigh
bors. There still persists, how
ever, an unfortunate tendency to
dismiss her intellectual import
ance to the life of the hemi-
sphere as negligible if non-ex-
istent.
The literature of South and
Central America opens new
lands for book explorers. Here
is a virgin field, virtually untap-
ped, available to those who
venture beyond the regimented,
restricted pale in reading.
VOICE OF AMERICA

LITERATURE REVIEWED
Equally brilliant, though more
specialized in channel, is THE
Epic of Latin American Litera-
ture" (Oxford: So by Arturo
Torres Rioseco. His book is not
a pedantic history of Latin Am
erican literature, but a careful
study of the body of work as a
whole. He classifies his SUBJ
ject not by countries but by
groups; the Colonial, the Ro-
mantle. the Modernist, ETC.. =.
with final chapter on Brazil
ian literature, a more unified
field.
Professor Torres Rioseco writes
with distinction and makes vivid
the whole panorama of Latin
American writing which has
been neglected. THE Epic Of
Latin American Literature" is a
book TO be greatly valued, not
only by the student of literature,
but by anyone interested in Lat
in America and her culture.

Congress Beats

(Highlights Of Anti Strike

WASHINGTON June 20 GNS)
- Relations between the White
House and Congress were strained
to the cracking point today as the
legislators presented President
Roosevelt with an unwanted anti
strike weapon and the justice
department with a labor enforce
ment problem Of headache proper
tons.
BY its action in overriding the
Presidents veto Of the Smith
Connally anti-strike bin, only two
hours after Mr.. Roosevelt had
returned it yesterday, Congress
gave unmistakable notice that it
had completely recovered the
initiative of law-making for the
first time since the advent of the
New Deal.
Senate attaches disclosed that
a search of the official records
revealed no other instance in
American history in which both
branches of Congress have over
ridden a presidential veto on the
same day it was executed.
Particularly significant was the
desertion Of Mr.. RooSevelt's own
leaders who by voting against
his veto, made possible the 56-2o
margin in the Senate and the 244-
los edge in the House by which
the Presidents recommendation
was repudiated.
