offer no apology Tor speaking
on the subject - What Is Wrong
With the Supreme Court of the
United States?" - because | wish
to expose the fallacy of the nu-
merous articles published in re-
cent months of disparaging ma
ture.
Every student of history knows
that several times during our ma
tiona1 history the Supreme Court
of the United States has been
subjected to attacks by segments
of our population. This has oc-
Cured at least three times during
my lifetime. In recent years, par
ticularly since 1854, many vicious,
and, 7 believe, unfounded attacks
have been made up on the Court
and it's individual members by
various individuals and groups
for the obvious purpose of plac-
ing the Court in public disfavor
and inspiring action by Congress
to limit the Courts power in GER
tain fields of judicial activity.
These attacks relate not only to
the soundness of the decisions OF
the Court but to the character OF
the Individual justices who have
occupied the bench of that great
court. Those of us who believe in
the right Of free discussion well
come constructive criticism of the
Esofficia1 conduct of public officials,
including the judiciary.
1t is an accepted truism that
there are two sides to every case
and criticism of court decision
may be expected from those on
the losing side and their sympa-
thizers. Certainly, no ju d 6 e
worthy of his position, would re-
sent constructive criticism of a
decision rendered by him either
by the litigants involved therein
or the members of the public.
Such criticism is a part of the
American tradition of free dis
cussion and should be welcomed
by our courts.
Vicious, unfounded attacks up
on the character and motives OF
the Justices or judges are quite a
different matter and should be
dealt with by the organized Bar
| Judges cannot defend themselves
against attacks of this character,

FOR HUMAN RIGHTS

The President of the Republic of Costa Rica, Engineer
Jose FlguereS, in an exclusive interview granted to THE
AMERICAS DAILY, published on Feb. 10, advocated in.
tefnatl0nal protection OF Human Rights, on the basis of
solid theological principles and official declarations of the
United Nations Organization and the Organization of
American States.
Human rights are no longer q matter for the exclusive
Jurisdiction of each State, and have become an interna-
tOnal responsibility" declared for THE AMERICAS DAILY
the outstanding Latin American statesman, who, during
the interview, developed the idea with meritOriOuS doe
Urinary reasoning.
Although the concept of international protection for
Human Rights has been making progress for many years,
and has found vigorous support in tranScendental dOcu.
mentS of the N and GAS, it is evident that the fact
that the President of one of the American Republics has
proclaimed it vehemently, gives it an extraordinary i'm
pOrtance which can be reflected soon in the field of prac-
teal reaIizatiOnS.
Perhaps it would be convenient that the Government
of Costa Rica, whose head is ideOlOgically interested in
international protection for Human Rights, submit to the
consideration of the other Governments of America, through
Its Foreign Office, a project tending to create or perfect
the ~juridical instruments, of obligatory international en-
fOrcement, to convert into reality the ideal of the Human
Rights.
1t is well known that this would require a long process
of consultations and serene studies by those who have to
assume the responsibilities of establishing the provisions
and the Inter American inspection for enforcement of the
respect due to Human Rights. In the field of American In
ternatiOnal Law, of course, 1t would be a great step forward,
perhaps of unsupported tranScendence, not only because the
immediate purpose would be achieved, but because the ms.
titutiOnal way would be open, to say the least, to reach other
goals of moral, political, social and economic conquest,
within the modern conception of >interdependence of the
States and, above all, of Inter American solidarity.
No matter how long 1t is required in the process of
consultation and study, and no matter what other technical
procedures may have to be followed to achieve this trans
cendental advance in the field of public law, some day this
creative work of a system of Inter American protection for
Human Rights has to be initiated, and possibly it would be
OppOrtune that the President of the Republic of Costa Rica,
through official channels, make a continental consultation
regarding his opinion on this inspiring and generous matter.

WASHINGTON. (UP). = Mile
Kybal, Director of the Washington
Office of the U.N. Economic Com
mission for Latin America (ECLA)
declared here that several years
will be needed to establish the
common market and to achieve in.
dustrial and agricultural integra.
ton of the 20 Latin American
countries.
Bybal made the statement at a
meeting in the Pan American
Union, attended by high officials
of the Organization of American
States (OAS), as well as diplomats
and Department of State officials.
Bybal reported ON the meeting
held recently in Santiago, Chile,
in which seven Latin American
statesmen prepared fundamental
plans for the establishment of a
Latin American common market,
on the same foundations as the
European common market.
The purpose of the common
market is to allow each country
to raise and manufacture for the
others whatever it can produce
better and cheaper. Brazil, for
instance, would send coffee to Ar.
gentina in exchange for beef and
wheat. The trade would be with
out customs duties and through a
central monetary system.
Kyha said the progress made by
the European common market has
had an encouraging effect in the
Latin American countries. He
warned, however, that there are
still many obstacles to be remov-
ed.
He also said the common market
will help Latin America to indus
trialize faster, pointing out that
for 1875 the Latin American coun-
tries will have a total population
Of some 275 million inhabitants,
Of which 80 million will have to
be employed outside OF agricul-
ture.
