Bethlehem is already feeding its
furnaces at Sparrows Point in
Baltimore Harbor. The spot is
known as Ell Pao, and was dis
covered in 1925 by a native pro-
ISpector. Bethlehem acquired the
concessions in 1888. A railroad
was built from the mine to the
river, where barges are loaded.
The barges are towed to Puerto
de Hero, Bethlehem's port of
iron" 230 miles downstream, which
can be reached by ocean-going
vessels.
Construction was started in Feb
ruary. 1941, but Pearl Harbor put
an end to it until after the war.
The iron port was not completed
until year ago.
Ell Pao is an open-pit opera

electric shovels and loaded into
30-ton diesel trailer trucks. The
trucks take the ore about a mile

! At the end Of the railroad, which

In spite of the meager economic
assistance we are giving the
Latin American countries, COM
pared to the billions in money,
materials and other aid ad-
vanced to the European and
Asiatic nations in the past three
years, our neighbors have made
considerable advances toward be-
coming the future arsenal Of raw
materials for the American world.
Washington has granted some
sizable loans for the building Of
steel plants in Brazil, Chile and
Peru, and has provided credits for
building and irrigation prof.
ects. It has supplied technicians
in the mining, agricultural and
other fields to assist In developing
new products and new crops.
Most Of this assistance in build
ing new industries and developing
the great natural resources of our
sister republics is coming from
private United States investors.
The production of oil, iron ore.
aluminium, manganese, copper,
tungsten. and other major prod
ucts, Is being made possible al
most wholly by private United
States capital. An easing Of ex-
treme nationalistic laws and reg

beneficial process.
