Bogota Farley 10 Get
Plan 10 Battle Reds
With Hemisphere Pact
BY the Assoeiofsd Press

BOGOTA, Colombia, Mar. 27.-I
Ways of employing the new Western
Hemisphere defense pact to prevent
Communist encroachment probably
will be brought before the ninth
American conference which
opens here Tuesday.
The question of the coloniaGsm
and proposals to improve the econ
ony of Latin American nations also
may be among the major topics.
The 81 nations making up the
Pan-American Union hope to mold
their system of coordination and
cooperation into a new structure
which fits the needs of modern
politics. The meeting here will be
the first full dress gathering of the
Western Hemisphere republics since
the Lima Conference in 1888.
Reorganization Is Task.
Delegations will face the task of
reorganizing the structure of hemi-
spheric relations in accordance with
the United Nations Charter.
A projected treaty, to be presented
to the conference as a basis for
discussion, refers to the creation of
permanent defense council Ar
gentina has announced its opposi-
ton to a council under the control
of the Pan-American Unions Gov
erning Board. She desires instead to
make the council responsible di-
rectly to the governments of the
Americas.
Chile has announced that she
will ask the Western Hemisphere
nations to take strong stand
against the expansion of Com
munism.
The United States and some other
American republics believe sound
and stable economies are the best
defense against communism. This
is one reason why so much interest
has been shown in the possibility
of adopting an efficient economic
cooperation program here.
The Marshall Plan for European
Recovery is worrying some Latin
American republics which fear that
| it means further postponement of
their industrial development. They
look on the United States as their
only source of machinery and capi-
tai goods.
Many Latin Americans feel the
United States is giving too much
attention to problems in other parts
of the world and ignoring the pres
ent critical economic situation in
many republics of this hemisphere
One diplomat who refused to be
quoted by name put it this way:
The United States is fighting
communism in Western Europe with
goods, in Asia with bullets and in
Latin America with words"
United States officials insist they
are trying TO develop some con-
structive program to meet Latin
Americas needs. This program in
cludes long-term loans by the Ex-
port Import Bank to private enter
prise.
These officials also contend that
if more freedom is granted by
Latin American nations to private
enterprise there would be larger
flow of American capital to the
other republics for new industries.
The United States may propose
that the conference establish an
inter-American development cor
poration with capital of 10000, 900
to help prepare economic programs
for Latin American countries and
provide technical and scientific as
SiStance.
