Finds Symbol Of American Qualification
In Costa Rican Inauguration
To the Editor Of The Star:
The understanding Of the situation In
Costa Rica and the friendliness with which
you express yourselves In the editorial which
appeared recently in The Star. entitled
"Costa Rica Returns to Normal" is source
of qualification to US.
There is SO much misunderstanding OF the
political and economic problems OF Latin
America among the general public IN this
country that it is heartening to see en-
liehtened Journalism endeavor to EDUCATE
its readers.
The unprecedented appointment Of an
Assistant Secretary Of State as the prin-
cipal member Of the United States Delega-
ton to the Inauguration Of President Otilo
Ulate as demonstration OF the satisfaction
with which the American Government views
the return to constitutional government IN
Costa Rica should serve to enlighten the
American people with respect to my country,
as well as to encourage other Latin American
peoples to follow the democratic way OF LIE.

To the Editor Of The Star:

should sell us value and not disappointment.
At the matinee of the Sadlers Wels
Ballet, not one Of their stars" appeared
even for five minutes-not Margot Fonteyn'
nor MORA shearer, nor Robert Helpmann,
nor Michael Somes.
Disappointment ran over the vast au-
dience as we became aware that We were
to see none Of the artists we had heard
about; and dissatisfaction was openly voiced
on all sides after the performance. we
witnessed an adequate" ballet with sincere
nerforn,ers. but it was not what most Of
us had paid to see.
People wonder why we haven't enough
money to build an opera house. But !
shouldn't think the British would be puzzled
as to where our dollars have gone. I think
