Rio
Continued From First Page

tenn power to use force SO 1t can
play its part as a U. N. regional or
ganization.
The inter-American system op-
crates on semi-independent basis
within the U. N. 1t can carry on its
own business for settling disputes
except when 1t wants to use force
to settle hemisphere quarrels. In
that case it can employ force until
the U. N. Security Council takes
over. A few weeks before the con-
ference was to be held in 1945 it
got tangled up in international pol
itics. The United States refused
to participate until Argentina
cleaned house Of Nazi agents and
assets.
During the subsequent year-and-
a-half of United tates-Argentine
wrangling, fears within the Truman
administration mounted over the
sharpening division between the
Soviet east and the democratic
west, frequent Russian use of the
veto in the U. N. and rising Com
munist strength in Latin America.
Enthusiasm for the policy of stiff
ness against Argentine eventually
waned within the government. It
was overthrown in June, clearing
the way for the Rio conference.
Main Treaty Outlines Seen.
The main outlines of the treaty
have already been traced during
preliminary negotiations, although
there are few bitches, one serious.
Majority sentiment now favors
this type of treaty:
In cases Of actual aggression, all
of the American nations would con-
slider themselves at war with the
attacker
Individual nations would imme-
diately go to the assistance of the
attacked nation on an emergency
basis.
Then consultations would be
opened to determine: % What had
already been done and (2) what
more should be done to assist the
nation in need.
In the event of a threat of ag-
gression preventive steps could be
taken, such as breaking diplomatic
relations and communications with
the threatening aggressor, economic
sanctions and other measures.
Voting Procedure Main Issue.
The main probelm, which will have
to be solved at Rio, arises from the
voting procedure to be followed ir
deciding enforcement measures.
Argentina has come out for unan.
imous vote. The United States
Brazil, Cuba, Chile, Panama ane
Mexico say it should be by two.
thirds vote, with any decision beins
binding only on those who votl
for it.
The other 14-the majority-wan,
two-thirds vote binding on all.
This split could break the con.
ference wide open, but signs are al.
ready out indicating a satisfactory
compromise.
The United States is the ma jol
power in the hemisphere and wouie
have to provide the most in tn,
way of military assistance urdcl
the treaty. Thus much will dep cnt
on the U. S. attitude.
To make the treaty work, an inter
American chiefs of staff organiza
ton will be set up at conferenca

Monocuns Cont Go Back
To Homes oxen for War

The 200 occupants of flats which
were taken over by the government
of Monaco in wartime, want to re-
turn to their homes, but can't. \
They took refuge in neighboring
French territory when ousted from
their homes in the little Riviera
principality. They have received
taxation notices from the French
authorities, which makes them all
the more eager to get back to
Monaco where there is no taxation
all the revenue comes from the
pockets of gamblers in the Casino.
But Prince Louis government has
not officially declared the war over.

The Entente Cordiale

The visit of President Aleman of
Mexico to President Truman has Great
ed as great a sensation in Washington
as did President Humans visit to
President Aleman in Mexico City.
This exchange of hospitality by the
chiefs of state should go far to cement
the steadily improving relations be-
tween the neighboring republics which
occupy so large a portion of the North
American Continent. When they have
finally reached the close friendship that
has existed SO long between the United
States and Canada, this Continent can,
in fact as we'll as theory, assume leader
ship in hemisphere affairs.
And there is now no good reason why
this should not transpire. The interests
and security Of all three are so closely
allied, nothing less than the entente
cordiale' should ever exist among them.

L. d. Latta Retires

Linwood D. Latta, secretary-treas-
urer and director of the Tide Water
Power Company, is retiring to private
life today after eighteen years spent
as an executive of the company.
During this time Mr.. Latta has taken
q prominent part in civic and church
activities, and for years served the Red
Cross chapter as watchdog of the treas
ury. During the war period, when the
Red Cross and county defense units
were most heavily burdened, his serv-
ices and advice were invaluable.
Because he has been so helpful in so
many undertakings, it is gratifying to
know that severance of his connection
with Tide Water will not involve re-
moval from Wilmington, but that in
stead he proposes to enjoy his retire
ment in our midst save for visits with
his son, the Rev. William M. Latta, rec
tor Of the Wadesboro Episcopal church,
and such other junketings as he may
be moved to undertake.
Throughout his residence in Will
mington, which far exceeds his connec-
ton with Tide Water, Mr.. Latta has
exerted a strong influence for the spiri-
tual and cultural betterment of the city.
His legion Of friends join the Star in
the hope that his retirement is limited
to business and not to the interests that
have made him, in every way, a lead
ing citizen.

which suffers worst from this type of

which suffers worst from this type of
storm. Alabama, Mississippi, Kentucky,
Tennessee, Louisiana, Texas, Oklahoma,
Missouri, and states farther north are
subject to tornado visitations, and be-
cause they attack so suddenly invari-
ably cause heavy loss.
In this they differ from hurricanes,
against which precautions may be taken
during their approach because Of their
slow forward movement. Although hur-
ricanes often attain wind velocity of
a hundred miles an hour their actual
progress is extraordinarily from eight
to twelve miles an hour-whereas tor
nadoes move with cyclonic speed, often
reaching fifty miles per hour. The only
hope of escape for persons in their path
is to reach a hurricane cellar in time
and the time is very short.
This was done by an alert and heroic
teacher at Worth who herded her pupils
into a storm cellar and so saved all six
teen.

Tornadoes Strike Quickly

Disaster swept into North Carolina
yesterday in the form of a tornado
which struck lei Fairmont. While it
is, perhaps, a little early in the sea-
son to expect these high pressure
winds, it serves notice that no section
Of the country is immune to such
catastrophes.
This tornado follows closely on the
heels of one which struck the Missouri
town of Worth. 1t left death and de-
struction in its wake just as the one
here in our state. At the last count
thirteen persons were known dead and
half the remaining population had suf-
fered injuries in Missouri. The towns
school, church, community hall and
nine other buildings, in addition to
fifteen homes were destroyed.
Recently a tornado swept over a sec.
ton of the Panhandle, taking heavier
toll of human life and destroying more
property. Even earlier this spring
others were reported, in or near the
Mississippi valley which is the region

Lend-Lease Ships

During congressional inquiries of the
Maritime Commission and claims that
sales OF property from stripped reserve
ships have been "wasteful," attention
has been directed to shrinkages in the
reserve fleet. A dispatch from the Stars
Washington bureau explains that the
reason why Wilmington's reserve fleet
total remains small is that Gin contrast
to 1,700 ships last July l, the fleet now
numbers only 1,400, only slightly more
than half of the 2,7OO maximum goal"
There would seem to be. no sound
reason why this country's shipping re-
serve shoul not now exceed the 1900
maximum, unless indeed there has been
official failure somewhere along the line
to regain possession of craft lend
leased to the Allies during the war and
still afloat. AS its contribution to the
bridge of ships President Roosevelt
called for, the United States le~nd-leaseed
4, 795 ships. AS of March 28-the latest
figures the Star has seen-1,943 have
not been returned. Only Great Britain,
Mexico and Panama have returned any.
Of the total, CAB were lost during the
war.
This table shows the lend-lease sit.
