Alfaro has urged that the Or
ganization of American States
withhold recognition from any
government which comes to
power as a result Of a military
coup. Recognition would be
given only after free and fair
election to determine public
preference.
The ambitions of political
and military leaders, the inter-
vention Of Central American
countries in the internal affairs
of their neighbors and some
Communist influence are fac
tors in the constant turmoil.
But more pressing are the So
cial and economic factors that
have led to revolt.
The United States has taken
the lead In lettering conditions
in the Caribbean. Some prog
ress has been reported already.
But observers see little hope for
stability and for a real trial OF
democratic principles until So
cial and economic measures
succeed.

Demagogues find it relatively
easy to fan nationalisrp and
group hatreds. The law Of the
sword has prevailed, because
there is little respect for legal
and political solutions to prob
lens of government. Misery
forms a background Of Central
American strife, as 1t does in
other Latin American lands
where militarism and opportu-
mites have led to revolution.
A peaceful solution to con-
f1icts in and between states IN
Central America is now being
sought within the framework
of the Rio pact. An Inter-
American Peace Commission is
investigating the causes of un-
rest. The peace commission
functions within the Organiza-
ton of American States.

American states have new con-
stitutions and call themselves
"democracies," they have been

amounting to as much as 80 per
cent of the development cost Of
the project" he said. 1T also
will contract with the local au-
thority to pay annual cash sub
sides toward the operation of the
housing. Since the housing is to
be rented to low-income families
at rents they can afford to pay.
the rental revenue from the prof.
ects will not be enough to pay all
the costs of operating it and pay
ing off the capital Indebtedness.
The purpose Of the annual SUBJ
sidy is to bridge the gap between
rental income and the expense Of
operating the housing, including
debt payment. This subsidy. to-
gether with local tax exemption,
makes it possible to charge low
rents
Applications 'Evaluated'
Under the public housing bill.
the Federal Government agreed to
subsidize the $4,000 units at a
maximum annual rate of $685.
100000 a year for a total of 40
years.
PHA's instructions to local COM
munities provide that in order to
make application for reservation
of certain number Of dwelling
units from the national program.
data be submitted on the present
housing supply in the community,
including information on the ex-
tent of "substandard" housing,
and evidence of the extent of "un-
met demand" for housing from
low-income families.
Since a definition Of exactly
what constitutes proof Of this
kind of qualifying information s
somewhat flexible, probably lew
communities in the country would
be barred from properly support
ing applications for a reasonable
number of such dwellings. After
applications are submitted. PHA
"evaluates" the request. 1.-The
information on the local need for
the program will be carefully an
alyzed because the law requires
that Federal aid be made avail
able only when the local authority
demonstrates that its locality has
a need for low-rent housing for
low-income families that is not
being met by private enterprise"
PHA explained.
Up to now, about three quarters
of the communities which have
sought to reserve dwellings under
the program have also applied for
preliminary loans. PHA says that
in order to qualify for such loans,
a housing authority must first
have it's plan approved by the local
city governing body within 80 days
after the dwelling reservation is
issued by PEIA. Then the con-
tract fc-' the preliminary loan
must be APP. C, ed by the / resi-
dent.
With such a loan and a pro.
gram reservation, an authority
then can go ahead to prepare the
project plans in detail, enter into
a contract with PHA for further
loan, sew up the site, find q
builder and go ahead with the job.

This is likewise a group of three
islands about 500 miles north

curious tumble of national
jurisdictions just east Of Puerto

nations co-exist side by side.

Virgin Islands to us a genera

islands are Saba, st. Eustatius

dots on the broad surface of
the Caribbean Sea, with mere
handfuls of inhabitants.
Such are the Netherlands
West Indies. Until relatively
recent times they were crown
colonies, authority resting with
the Dutch governors and his
officials. Later on there were
advisory councils. but elected
by a suffrage so limited that
they represented chiefly the
resident Dutch element. In
Surinam. for instance, there
were only 5000 qualified voters,
while in the islands there were
less than 5000. Under the old
law, the vote was available only
to males who had paid a Ger

education equal to at least six
years of primary schooling.

SEATTLE.-A University OF
Washington educator, in quest OF
a simple universal language
thinks he has one.
1t is an adaptation of English
He calls it Model English" But
after taking a look at it. the aver
age American or Englishman
might vote that pidgin English
would be simpler.
The man who devised the new
English in the hope that it may
serve as a medium for all peoples
is DR.. Stuart c. Dodd, director OF
the university's public opinion
laboratory.
II you wanted to write This

be: this bi o stori Of o nu

The ''bi' is DR.. Dodd's substi-
tute for be-" which is used in
stead of "is." You probably catch
the rest of the sentence without
difficulty. -.
Easier to Learn
The "be" is one Of the tricks of
the new tongue. It eliminates the
multiple versions of a verb.
Remember the grade-school or
deal of memorizing the conjuga-
ton Of irregular verbs7 DR.. Dodd's
new language Is designed to
eliminate the irregularities, among
other things.
1.-THE peoples of the world need
increasingly one international
auxiliary language" DR.. Dodd
says. 1T should be the most
familiar to the largest number OF
people, involve the least learning
and least resistance to adoption. I"
His study convinced him Eng
lish fills the bill better than any
other language. He says 1t is
spoken by one-seventh Of the
worlds population and that prob
ably more people can read and
write English than any other
tongue.
But English has its difficult
angles, and he says experiments
have shown that the new Model

In making his decision in favor

He describes his Model Eng
lish' as "regularized or rule -obey-
ing"
Sentences have one word order
only and no idioms; words have
one meaning, one pronunciation
and one spelling.
He eliminated capitals to do
away with different forms of in
dividual letters. Standardized
pronunciation and phonetic SPELL
