c. F. pete" SMITH AND JOE BOYD
ARE THE LOGICAL CANDIDATES FOR
THE LATIN AMERICANS

In our endeavor to better serve the interests of our
Latin American community, we have been trying to
analyZe the platforms presented for the consideration
of the voters by the aspirants to different public posts.
Naturally, our interest lies very specially on the points
they emphasize and which directly refer to the interests
of the one hundred thousand Spanish speaking residents
of Dade County.
In his platform C. F. "Pete' Smith specially dedi.
Gates a point to the Latin American interests, which we
consider of transcendental Importance: The conquest
of greater Latin American markets by guaranteeing
without discrimination the space necessary for pas
senger routing as well as for storage facilities to all the
Latin American airlines connecting at the Miami Inter.
national Airport. Equal treatment for all, for the sake
of a better spiritual understanding and of more air traffic
between Miami and the rest of the Western Hemisphere.
We believe that such position satisfies a legitimate aspira.
ton of the Latin American community residing in the
Greater Miami area and that, therefore, should have
its support.
&e Boyd favors the idea of continuing with the
use of Spanish and English in all the signs displayed by
the public services of the County. Mr.. Boyd has to his
credit the fact that he was one of the ~initiators Of that
magnificent system in Hialeah, which is a sector of
Dade County where traffic accidents are less as a result
Of the %bilingual traffic signs displayed in its streets.
Besides being beneficial to all, such recognition of the
strong Spanish sector that cannot speak well the English
language constitutes one more attraction in favor of
the good relations of Miami with Latin America.

The Political Topic Among
Latin Americans

1t seems strange to some
people that the Latin Ameri-
cans show so much interest in
political problems.
1t is evident that this is
due largely to temperamental
qualities, but that is not in
deed the only reason.
The main motive behind
this attitude is that the Latin
Americans have suffered i'm
mensely as a result of politics
an they owe it many of their
problems and their stagnation.
Generally, they have been
balancing between unfruitful
cheap demagoguery and de-
structively cruel tyranny.
There are exceptions, and
it is hoped these exceptions
become more common, of ma
tions that have achieved posi-
tive progress, Kidding of the
wrongs of domestic dictator
ship and of the overanxious
demagogues who make a mess
of things and are also a dis
credit to democracy.
Of course, for obvious req
sons speaking in general
terms the Latin American
gets more excited when talk
ing about relationships, a
scourge that weighs most
heavily in the history of our
countries, and he condemns
them with civic vehemence
because he knows they violate
the democratic principles "a
reason of theological morali-
ty- and also because analyz-
ing deep down the reality Of
our nations, he knows that in
general they are the roots of
the painful problems haras-
sing our peoples.
1t should not be strange
then why the Latin Ameri-
cans display such keen inter-
est when discussing politics.
1t is because for them the top.
ic has contours of great sig
nificance in their lives which
are the cause Of excitement,
more than what normally hap
pens among people whose
political life develops in a
civilized level Of that human
activity.
