The Ambassador urged that the
United States help undeveloped
countries to assist their economic
rise which in turn will assure
prosperity. He recon-
mended a traffic system between
America and the countries Of
Europe and Asia.

The Senate in Ceylon, COM

CeyIon Ambassador Describes Country
To Democratic Women at Luncheon
By jeanne ROGERS

Ambassador G. c. S. Corea from
Ceylon described his island yes
terday as a 13-month-old baby,
with a civilization dating back to
200 B.C., that in the rural Sec
tions still adheres to horoscope
marriages.
Speaking before a luncheon
meeting OF the Woman's National
Democratic Club, the Ambassador
explained that Ceylon had re-
gained its independence from the
English little over a year ago.
Ceylon was independent from 200
BIC. until 1915, he said, although
it was occupied partially during
that time by the Portuguese and
the Dutch. He emphasized that
English domination of the entire
country came about through a
treaty signed by Ceylon chiefs
rather than by conquest.
In contrast to the freedom of
women in business, government
and education, Mr.. Corea said that
two systems of marriage prevail.
In some sections of the country.
marriages are arranged through
a broker who examines the horo-
scopes of men and women for
suitability, he said.
although I don't believe in it,
the horoscope system has func-
toned well" the Ambassador said.
There is practically no divorce
in that system. It seems there are
more divorces among persons
having a higher education.
Mr.. Corea said Ceylon is in
dustrially backward and its in
dependence should not rely on ag-
riculture alone. The economy is
now lop-sided, he added.
my people have been content
in their own rustic ways and they
are not RICH" Ambassador Corea
stated. "The picture is changing
