u. n. 10 Press Survey
OF Forest Wealth Of
Latin America Areas

LAKE SUCCESS. N. Y, Mar.
Z (CDN.-The vast forests of
Latin Americas jungles and
mountain slopes soon will be made
part of a United Nations program
for economic development.
Untold wealth in the forests
and jungles will be channeled
eventually into export products to
help relieve the world timber
shortage.
Through the Food and Agricul-
turai Organization. forest tech
nicians will set up in Rio de
Janeiro a headquarters for an
extensive survey.
Objectives Outlined.
Two objectives lie ahead:
/. Opening up untouched or
little-developed forests, thus stim-
ulating the economic and social
development of Latin American
countries.
2. Bringing these forests and
others already exploited under
proper management to avoid dis
sipation of forest resources and
to check erosion.

players themselves have been
cautioned against conscious or
unwilling trespass against Soviet
orthodoxy.
A writer in the Berliner Zeitung,
which speaks for the Soviet gov
ernment of eastern Berlin, has
suggested that if there are anti
Communist riots, then the cast of
Jean Paul Sartre's controversial
drama which plays here as Dirty
Hands" must share the blame.
Omitting any reference to Com
munism, the writer declares that
it portrays "a party esteemed by
millions of Germans" as one of
"fehme," or secret society mur-
derers. and of corrupt officials.

Russian Zone Critics
Warned on JUDGING
Theater Productions
By Dovid M. NichoI
Foreign Correspondent Of The Star and
the Chjeooo Dolly News


BERLIN, Mar. 1.-THE official
lightning which struck down Mos
cows theater critics has been ex-
tended now in the form of a
warning to critics in Germanys
Soviet-occupied area.
Critics, according to Taegliche
Rundschau, the Soviet Army's Of
fetal publication. have no bus
mess judging a stage production
on formal or esthetic" grounds,
but must confine themselves to
its idea.
The example they quote is the
play which called down the Olym-
plan thunder in the Soviet Union.
Officially it's title is Free Jour-
ney," but it translates better in
American railroading as High
ball" 1t is the work of an un-
known author named "A. Surov."
Surov's hero is a locomotive
engineer who makes record run
and is welcomed with bands and
flowers, a gold watch from the
director of the railroad, and a
citation from the chief engineer.
Blasts Executives.
Then, to the surprise of every
one, and-in the Soviet version
to the delight and edif1cation Of
the public, Engineer Sibiryakov
turns back all these gifts and
honors and blasts the railroad
executives as bunch of old fogies
who don't know anything about
the business.
He is not interested in personal
achievements. he says, but in
speeding up the Soviet's railroad
system. The freight trains needed
by the five-year plan must travel
twice as quickly, he declares.
The highpoint is a monologue
in which the hero declares to
everyone who wants to listen:
"All ways lead to Communism.
But not all ways are the same.
Detours, naturally, are easier, but
they do not correspond to our
character.
you" he says to the railroad
director, may not be in hurry.
But I have my own plan. I want
personally to achieve Communism.
I have still some time to live
Players Also Cautioned.

this to be corn was enough to get

Argentine Paper BIames
Peron for Economic Crisis
kx the Axsoeiofsd Press

BY the ASSocioreo FfeSS
BUENOS AIRES, Mar. THE
Independent newspaper La Prensa
yesterday blamed Argentina's
economic ills on the government
Of President Peron.
The attack came after an
nouncement of a proposed govern
ment decree which would seize all
newsprint in the country for dis
tribution by the government on a
basis of true need" 1t also
banned further private importa-
ton of newsprint.
The government said it acted to
save scarce foreign exchange.
La Prensa charged, however,
that the government was taking
the paper to give to small pro-
government newspapers at the
expense of those which had the
foresight to store large stocks.
La Prensa and La Nacion, an
other independent daily, are the
