There are many reasons to

American liberals must there

INTER AMERICAN DEMOCRATIC AND
ECONOMIC COOPERATION

49,
During the last few months, on different committees
the United States Congress, there have been debates on
the problem presented by the Soviet policy of infitratiOn
in Latin America, which is being carried out in a large
scale through Russian promises of economic cooperation
with the Latin American countries.
1t is evident that the Kremljn has great interest in the
nations of Latin America. /. is also evident that lately the
Moscow Government has intensified official negotiations
with some of the Latin American countries, with the obvious
and logical intention of penetrating there and gain pOiti-
cal influence.
This fact, no doubt must concern all the peoples and
governments of America, in particular the United States,
whose security would be seriously affected with the con-
%SOlidatiOn of a certain degree OF Soviet influence In any
country or countries of the Continent.
Against that Russian maneuVer, two fundamental
forces must be opposed. First, the reality OF authentic
democracy, and, second, Inter American economic
cooperation.
When these matters are discussed, there are always
some voices that unanimously give emphasis to economic
cooperation, which, of course, is OF vital Importance for
the elimination of the Weighty problems of material order
which affect several Latin American nations and which
create a %prOpitOuS atmosphere to communist demagOguery.
However, it would be q very serious error to believe
that economic cooperation alone is the antidOte for the
threat of communist infiltratiOn in Latin America. 1t is
necessary to promote also, and In a serious, decisive man.
ner, Inter American democratic cooperation, so that each
one of the peoples of our Continent may be convinced
that democracy is a reality for all, not only for the United
States and for many of the Latin American countries which
are enjoying it. 1t is necessary to think also about the
countries where the people are suffering an accute lack of
freedom, where there are multiple cases of political des-
peratiOn that may result in the formation of an atmosphere
favorable to communism, If those people do not have faith
in democracy, the red infiltratiOn, Shillfully directed from
Moscow, may achieve more than we can imagine.

TARIFF COMMISSION
VOTES FOR INCREASE
IN LEAD, ZINC DUTIES

WASHINGTON, April "A. (UP).
The United States Tariff Commits.
sion reported unanimously to pre-
sident Eisenhower today that lead
and zinc are being imported into
the U. S. in such increased guam
titles as to cause serious injury to
the domestic industries producing
these eomodities.
The commission split, however,
on the remedy which they felt
necessary for the injury.
Three of the commissioners re-
commended enforcement of the
maximum import duties; namely
for lead bearing ores, n and four
fifths cents a pound on the lead
content; on lead pigs and bars two
and eleven twentieths cents a
pound on the lead content; on zinc
bearing ores one and four fifths
cents a pound on the zinc content
and on blocks pigs or slags two
and one tenth cents a pound.
They also recommended annual
quotas of 221, 700 short tons of
unamanufactured lead and $685.
800 short tons of manufactured
zinc.
Three other commissioners, re-
commended that the import duties
be merely restored to what they
were under the 1880 tariff act and
they opposed any kind Of quota
limitations.

gust on the new dispositions of

ers to be used for harvesting the

Reciprocal Trade Act Fate
Worries State Department

The US. State Departments po-
icy planners r mapping moves
of vital interest to Latin America
these days. This is reflected in va
rious dispatches from Washington
which have made front-page news
in many leading US. newspapers.
Specifically, the State Depart
ment is worried about the fate OF
the reciprocal trade program in
Congress and is considering sever
al courses of action which might
make it more palatable to u. S.
businessmen and their representa-
tives in Congress.
One OF these courses OF action
is the reported current discus
sion among State Department ex-
perts Of the feasibility of an inter-
national coffee commodity agree
ment which Would, some feel, do
much to relieve the serious situa-
ton being faced by Brazilian and
Colombian coffee producers and
then governments. The feeling
among these experts is that a cot
fee agreement among all the
worlds producers would insure
stability in the market, and pro-
vide an equitable way of avoid.

are damaging to the economies of
the producing nations.
Coffee is what . leading Brazil

"a neuralgia point" in inter-Ame-

sons:
Brazil Colombia and other Lat
in American republics obtain 80
per cent Of their revenues from

their sales of coffee has been drop

half.
Hurting the Latin American
coffee market particularly in Eu-
rope have been the French and
British coffee producing territor-
les of Africa.
AT the same time, the Soviet
Union has launched a major trade
drive in Latin America, a factor
which the State Department is
weighing carefully. The thinking
of the experts OF the Department
who favor an international coffee
agreement runs pretty much
along these lines:
The threat OF communist inroads
in the Americas through expanded
Soviet and Iron Curtain trade is a
very real one,
