The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON Ct. Col Robert s. Allen now on active
 service with the Army


 WASHINGTON-Latin American diplomats have been seething back stage regarding dynamite-loaded subject affecting Western Hemis- phere relations more than any thing in years-future U. s. mlll- tary bases in Latin America.
 President Roosevelt has signed a directive insuucting the State De- partment to secure certain bases considered necessary by the Army and Navy after the war. The directive is drawn lin such a way that the State Department has no discretion. It is. directed to secure the bases, pefiod-in effect ignor5 ing the question of whetlfer EatN American nations want to lease the bases or not. a
 Insidss advisers say that the di- rective Eas written by the sArmy and Navy without consulting the State Department, and that the President apparently, did not read /. it carefully sbeforel signing.
 Since then the State Department has been secretly negotiating with two countries-Brazil and Ecuador
 Although it will be denied, Presi- dent Vargas has definitely agreed that after the war, the United States can maintain certain stra- tegic bases on the bulge of Brazil opposite Dakar and the bulge of West Africa. iThis dovetails with the Presidents Casablanca arrange ment with Churchill for giant U. s. base at Dakar)
 U. s. BASE IN GALAPAGOS
 Meanwhile, similar negotiations are underway with Ecuador for a naval base on the Galapagos Is- lands, just off the Panama Canal. Unfortunately these military base plans are being handled in such way that they are causing serious American resentment.
 Prior to the departure of Sumner Welles Teal father of the Good Neighbor Policy from the State Department, he had discussed with Latin-American diplomats plans for a cooperative Western Hemisphere defense. It was to be mutual matter, with all Pan-American na- tions working together to defend the Americas. Under this plan, U. s. troops working with other American troops would have been welcomed in Latin American coun- tries on leased bases.
 However, the Good Neighbor na- tions were left out in the cold at Dumbarton Oaks, are still sore about it, and are secretly ready to balk like a mule at the idea of U. s. bases being rammed down their threats.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-Don't ask me to cut any clear lines in the controversy over the number of air. plane accidents in training for the services and in so-called routine flights" which involve everything from training to trans-continental transport.
 I only know that it is coming back into the news before long and it is likely that after year and half of silence, another report on flying safety in the services will come out of a Senate Investigating committee.
 Sen. William Langer, the North Dakota Republican firebrand and administration critic, is chief ram- rod in the upper chamber to get some new report on safety condi- tions in non combat service flying, but the subject isn't one of party alignments.
 According to Senator Langer, the Truman committee (now the Mead committee), investigating war ac- tivities, promised report on air plane service accidents IT months ago, but as yet nothing has been forthcoming Sen. Langer says he is informed that as late as October, 1914, Gen. H. H. Arnold, chief of the Army Air Forces, reported that there had been 17,500 plane crashes in the United States alone, more than had occurred at that time in the AAF on all the battle fronts.
 These figures are startling, even staggering, but they will have to be broken down much farther than that before the true significance of them is clear.
 For example, the Aeronautical Training Society. which has had charge of the contract flight train ing for the Army Air Forces since mid-1939 will come out soon with a complete report on safety in the preliminary training schools.
 Indications are now that the re- port will show primary flight train ling fatal accidents to total less than one to 60.O00 hours of flight. This
