0As Council Approves Scholarships
Among Hemisphere Nations

WASHINGTON, Jan. Is (UP)-
The Council of the Organization
of American States, (OAS), unani-
mouSly approved. a resolution about
the establishment of a scholarship
exchange among American coun-
tries.
This resolution, which was pre-
sented by Panamanian Ambassad-
or Ricardo Arias, authorizes an
annual grant of 500 scholarships
among the American states and
stipulates other details of the pro-
gram.
The programs aim is to "expe-
dite and speed up social, economic,
scientific, and cultural develop
ment in the organizations mem
Der states"
The program, whose cost is
$250,000 a year, would become eff
fective on the 1st of July, of this
year. The American Presidential
Representatives Committee recon-
mended the adoption of this pro-
gram in their meeting which was
held last April in Washington.

ministration Of the program

Lopez is a candidate of the In.
stitutional Revolutionary Party for
the Presidency, which has not lost
a single election for 40 years. The
elections will take place on the 7th
of June.
Lopez added that the Inter Amer
lean economic conferences have
not as yet resolved anything and
that they can not do so until the
U. S. changes her policies in that
which relates to commerce with
Latin America.
He suggested that the U. S.
should try to better understand
the Latin American countries and
try to- strengthen her friendly re-
lations with them.
He later said that Vice-President
NixonS visit to Latin America in
1855, was a complete success"
but that, in his way of thinking,
these visits are too seldom and at
too prolonged intervals.
In referring to Hemisphere de-
tense against foreign political and
military aggression, Lopez Mateos
said that it will depend more on
economic stability than on arma-
ment. He added that Mexico could
defend herself without U. S. aid
and said that Latin America
needs more economical power and
not more military strength"
Speaking of communism, he said
that it finds the best breeding
ground in hunger but he thought
that there was no communist
threat in mGxico.
"There is no communist agita-
ton in any of the Mexican labor
unions and all of the extremists
are we'll known and carefully
watched" From his stand point,
the major danger of communist
penetration is in the U. S. LET us
let the U. S. take care of herself,
and we will take car of ourselves"
If he were elected, he said, there
would be no changes in Mexican
Foreign policies, and promised to
maintain intact the economic poll
cies of free exchange and COM
merce.
\ Speaking of the Mexican oil in.
duStry, he said that he dod not see
the need for investments of foreign
capital at this time.

PUBLIC MORALS

Very regrettable is the fact that some commercial
establishments, where persons of all ages go to do business,
are allowed to sell books and magazines containing pOrnO,
graphic articles and photographs.
1t is absurd, to say the least, that in the United States
there are some laws tending to eliminate vice through
severe prosecution, which in some cases even intervene
in details which escape public scandal, and that, on the
other hand, there are no established measures, strict and
effective, to combat the free and easy sale Of pictures and
written material Incompatible with the most elementary
nOrmS of morality, even when they try to disguise them as
works of scientific, technical or artistic type. In those
publications and pictures, the main result is incitatiOn of
the senses, and OutburStS of passion, as well as the exaltatiOn
of all that which encourages delinquency.
Any person may have proof of this regrettable real
ity, only by visiting the above mentioned centerS, in which
they may see, in the section corresponding to books and
magazines, that kind Of material which is so destructive
of ethical values of society, in particular when it is placed
within the reach Of children and minors.
1t would be very convenient that the authorities In
charge of enforcing measures to preserve public morality,
increase their efforts to destroy once and for all this evil,
so harmful for society, in that which should be its main
foundation, morality.
OF course, by reason of their hierarchy and spiritual
mission. religious leaders have to hold an important role
in this labor of moral cleansing, as they are doing in most
cases.
In order to fight juvenile delinquency it is necessary
to strengthen, first of all, the foundation OF public morals,
and the evils must be cut off at their roots, and one OF
them, surely, is the type of literature to which we nave
referred In this short editorial note.
That pornographic material, which, for reasons of
monetary gain or decentralization, some insist on calling
scientific" or "artistic" material, must not be left within
the reach of children Or %teenagers.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16 (UP)-
The Executive Committee of the
inter American Regional Organiza-
ton of Workers (ORIT) ended a
three-day meeting today by pass
ing a strong-worded resolution
condemning the regime of Presi-
dent Fulgencic BatiSta of Cuba
for being a military dictatorship.
The text of this resolution will
be made public later by Serafino

for Inter American Affairs and a
member of the ORIT Executive
Committee. 1t was learned, how
ever, that the Executive Commit

'CorreO," the magazine of the
United Nations Organization for
education, science, and culture,
has dedicated part of its Decem.
Der issue to a detailed report about
Magyar murals found at Bonampak,
Mexico.
The murals, painted during the
flourishing era of the Maya civiIiz-
alton in Yucatan, and Guatemala
from the 4th to the 10th century
of the Christian era, were discover
ed in 1916 by a photographer who
was making a documentary picture
of the life of an Indian tribe in
the Chiapas State jungles, near
the Guatemalan border.
UNESCO stresses, among other
things, that it has been proven
that some archaeological opinions
about the Mayas were unfounded.
Before it was thought, for example
that the Mayas did not make hu.
man sacrifices and were not war
like.
"The murals says "Correo" -
prove all to the contrary"
At the same time they reveal
that women held 3 more important
position in that civilization than
was formerly believed.

He explained that the main ad.
vantages of trade with the Soviets

1. The Russians accept payment
in cruzeiros.
2. A trade pact would permit the
Soviets to buy more Brazilian pro-
ducts.
3. The Russians are ready to sell

4. Direct trade would eliminate

nounced the first shipment of a
new type of Diesel locomotive for
all types of work, to the Argentine
State Railroads.
Alec, which is the largest export
er of Diesel locomotives in the
world, added that, out of an or
der for 1870 DL-540 locomotives, 16

the U. S. the DL-701, which has
been in use in this country for two
years. Both have the famous Alec

The first 30 of the DL.540's will
be put into use on the D. V. Sar-
miento railroad as part of a long
term plan by the Argentine gov

try'S railroads. Later deliveries of
the engines will cover IS units for
the General Mitre Railroad and
As for the Genral San Martin Rail-
road, which will be sent to Argen-
tina during this year.
The locomotives have the dri-
ver'S seat at the left, which is in
accord with the type of railroad

the British in Argentina.
