Economic Council Decides Today on
Problem Of U. S. Lead, Zinc Tariffs

WASHINGTON, Feb. IL (UP)-
The Inter American Economic and
Social Council will decide tomorrow
on action to be taken about
complaint presented by Mexico,
Peru and Bolivia about restric.
tons against American importats
of lead and zinc.
These three countries asked the
Organization of American States
to submit to the United States the
investigations and reports about
lead and zinc they have presented
to the United Nations, in order
that their concern about the res
trictive measures of the bill,
appear in record.
The request was submitted to
secret vote of the Basic Products
Committe of the GAS.
The Committee decided to ask
the Inter American Economic and
Social Council to transfer the
matter of lead and zinc to the
full OAS' Council.
In that way it will be at liberty
to decide whether the information
obtained on the lead and zinc
problem shall be given to the
United States government, or to
some international Agency.
However, in an additional report,
the Committee points out that the
resolution 33 of the Inter Amer
lean Economic Conference of Bue-
nos Aires recommends action bet
ween the Basic Products Com
mittee and the corresponding
Committee of the United Nations,
which is considered as a suggestion
to enable the Council to make use
of Resolution SO in the matter of
lead and zinc.
Diario las Américas., 1958-02-13

Although the Committee didn't
criticize in a direct way the bill
for increasing tariff rates and
assignment of quotas by the United
States, the documents received by
the Council contain abundant
warning that in case such measures
are enacted it will affect the eco
nomic situation of Latin American
countries involved.
1t was the purpose of Mexico,
Bolivia and Peru to have the
government of the United States
understand the Importance this
means to them.
The restrictive measures are
being studied by the Tariff Com
mission of the United States, which
will make the necessary recomen-
dationS to President Eisenhower
for his consideration.

MEXICO CITY (UP)- The Co

The party said it is presently

very unlikely tnat the communists

For one thing, observers point
out, neither the communist nor the

mum of $4,000 votes to qualify as
political parties.
For another, these two groups to-

BOLIVIAN CONFISCATION
ASSAILED BY CELLER

WASHINGTON (UP)- Chair
mar Emanuel Celler of the House
Judiciary Committee charged in a
house speech that US. State De.
partment policy has served to aid
Bolivia in its illegal co~nfiscation of
private property.
CeIler said protection against
confiscation of property is vital
if the United States is to succeed
in opposing the Soviet drive to
win underdeveloped areas of the
world.
He called for US. participation
in an international Court of Ar
bitration to establishment specific
rules for the security of private
investment in Latin America, Asia
and Africa and said there should
be an investigation of us. policy
toward Bolivia which "confiscated
the major tin properties of foreign
investors in 1852 and has evaded
all efforts to bring about a final
valuation and method of compen-
sation."

Figures. Echandi, taIder0n
Guardia and OrIich Equally
Victorious

Even if the victory attained
in the elections recently held in
Costa RIGA was really the victory
of the Costa Rican people as a
whole, in reducing it to proper
names due mention comes to
President Figueres, Mario
Echandi, Rafael Angel Calder6n
Guardia and Francisco Orlich.
Figueres is mentioned because
he had the honor of presiding
truly honest elections. which as.
sures him a prominent place in
the history of the republican ms
titution of Costa RIGA and Anne
RIGA. Any political errors he
may have made as a leader and
as a ruler will always be oblit-
Grated or compensated by his
respect of the democratic princi-
pies and of the political sover-
eighty of the Costa Rican nation,
Echandi running on the op-
position side must naturally
be mentioned because he was
the candidate who obtained the
largest number of votes and be.
cause he won the next eonstitu-
tional term to the Presidency of
the Republic through the demo-
cratic process.
Rafael Angel Calder6n Guar.
dia also achieved an important
victory, inasmuch as after more
than eight highly adverse years
during which he had no part in
the Government, these free cleo
tons gave his party a good num-
Der of seats in the Assembly,
which gives political actuality to
Calderon Guardia and his CO.
party members. AS everybody
knows, his party did not pre-
sent any candidate to the Presi-
dency of the Republic, but it
did present aSpirants to seats in
the Legislative Power.
To the loser in the presiden-
tial race, Francisco Orlich, the
candidate backed by Figueres'
party, credit is due because he
was a good loser, in the best
display of republican dignity.
Besides, he had the satisfaction
of obtaining a considerably
large number of votes, which re-
presents the great faith his
countrymen have deposited in
him. After ballot counting, Mr..
Orlich, who could be described
as the official candidate without
being forced on the people by
the Government, tactfully recog-
nized the victory of his oppo-
nent. enhancing the prestige of
democracy and strengthening
the operation of the republican
institutions.
Through free elections, in an
environment of order and peace
compatible with national deco
rum, it is very easy for a nation
and its leaders to achieve poll
teal victories such as this and
the moral satisfaction that comes
with them.
