BY THE WORLD STAFF OF THE
ASSOCIATED PRESS


WASHINGTON - Prospects are
that government C a Is who
hope to impress Russia with In
ter-American unity at e forth
coming Rio De Janeiro conference
are in for a slight disappointment.
The conference opens Aug. 10
and will negotiate on an Inter
American mutual defense treaty.
The U. S. recently attempted to
grease the ways so that the idea
of Inter-American unity would be-
come the dominant theme. 1t ma
neuvered the governing board OF
the Pan American Union into try
ing to resolve the major points
before hand. But few diplomats
believe it will work.
The disputes center around a U.
S. proposal which would:
/. Throw out the veto on en-
forcement action by having de-
cisions on a two-thirds vote basis.
Argentina, for one, wants the veto.
2. Make it mandatory for all
American nations to 60 immedl-
ately to the assistance OF an at
tackled sister nation. Some Latins
want to consult first.
The U. S. hopes to avoid the
usual split with Argentina. A ma
jority of the Latin American coun-
tries already support the U. S.
view. The catch is that there will
have to be wide agreement since
the treaty will have to be ratified
by the various national con-
crosses.
"a government informant in Of
tawa says that Canada has not
been invited to the conference and
is not sure it would accept if in
v.ted. Canada already has defense
arrangements with the United
States which this person says 1t
considers more important than
any South American tie-up.)
