War Material Buying
Reported Increasing
In Latin America
By Ernie Hill
Foreign Correspondent Of The ster and
the Chicago Daily News

BUENOS AIRES, July 1o.-War
equipment deliveries to Latin
America are beginning to assume
substantial proportions, though they
are still. considerably smaller than
they will be if the United States
Congress approves President Tru-
mans Standardization program.
Following closely on Argentina's
announcement that it is purchasing
an unspecif1ed number of Meteor
let fighters from Britain, comes
word that 100 BIS bombers are 60
ing to Brazil.
The President has recommended
co-ordinated program to sell Latin
America what arms it needs so 1t
will not have to buy elsewhere and
military and State Department Off
cials have backed the recommended
ton.
Problems Outlined.
If CONGRESS fails tc act on the
program before adjournment, the
Rio de Janeiro hemisphere defense
conference, opening August Is. will
face perplexing problem. Without
congressional decision. the foreign
ministers will probably be limited
to framing permanent hemisphere
defense treaty based on the Act OF
Chapultepec, signed March 6, 1945.
in Mexico City. For they will not
be- sure how far they can go in
planning arms and military co-ordi-
nation.
Most countries would prefer to
start discussions of what they will
be able to buy and for how much,
at Rio, even If behind closed doors.
Various countries already are talk
ing about possible quotas under the
Truman proposal.
Quotas to Be Decided.
Brazil, for example, would like to
see quotas based on population or
area, because it has more people and
Is larger than the others.
Argentina, as Latin America S
richest country, thinks quotas should

broken into the open as yet and
probably won't unless or until Con-
gress approves the program and the
details are in process of being
worked out.
Meanwhile, most Latin American
countries will continue to buy mill
tary equipment in the United States.
Chile; Peru, Colombia and Venezuela
Evening star., 1947-07-10

have been stocking up gradually
with everything from ground weap-
ons to aircraft. United States sales
to Latin America since the end OF
the war are estimated at a value of
more than $4,000, 900, though the
price paid for surplus war materiel
was much less.
(Copyrisht, 1947)
Evening star., 1947-07-10

be based on the country's economic
position and ability to buy.
Some countries nearest the Pan
anna Canal think quotas should be
set on the basis of strategic location.

to Virginia. What will Tuck or
the state legislature do then is
the $64 question here.
The poll tax issue will plague
the legislators also. Liberal white
and colored voters are against the
tax as a requirement for voting.
Besides, this session of the as
sembly should vote to refer the
issue to the people in a referen-
dunn. In that case the liberal group
in the state with a we'll and ex-
tended campaign would have a
good opportunity Of winning
enough votes to get enough votes
against the poll tax.
There is considerable liberal
sentiment also against Jim crow
travel in the state. The one-man
cars in some cities, overcrowded
| street cars and buses in all cities
and other chronological conditions
have increased interest in non
segregation of the races in intra-
travel. Some white and Negro lead
ers no longer fear race friction
The Ohio daily-express. (Dayton, Ohio) 1946-1950, 1947-11-20

or trouble as in years past should
jim crow travel be outlawed now,
Yet Virginia is not ready foI
any of these changes in full. There
are many groups against those
objectives-too many white con-
servatives under the influence of
the so-called Byrd machine and
the states traditions. Besides, still
too small a number of Negroes and
poor whites vote. The machine still
controls the state politically.

Legislature 10 Get
Renewed Pleas For
Negro Rights

RICHMOND, Va, Nov. 10. "a
NP)-When the Virginia legisla-
ture meets here in January that
body will be faced with greater
public demands than ever before
that the poll tax be outlawed, that
racial segregation on public car
riers be ended, and that equal edu-
cational facilities be provided for
Negro children in the state.
With the Virginia State NAACP
conference mapping plans for
court test of Virginia's separate
and unequal school system for Ne
groes, the state lawmakers and
state educational officials will
sooner or later have to devise
some means of furnishing equal
educational facilities Tor Negro
children or of planning a way to
circumvent the law or court rul-
ing when it is announced.
Gov. Tuck has followed former
Gov. Darden's lead in trying to
support the regional graduate
school system to offset campaigns
and suits for the damission of Ne
gro students into southern white
institutions. But the threat of ac-
ton against the University of Vir-
ginia brings the issue straight in
