MEXICAN PLANTERS ARE
AGAINST COMMON MARKET

MEXICO CITY CUP)- The
Mexican Association of Planters
(cosecheros) went on record to-
day stating that the Economic
Commission for Latin America
ought t, devote itself to the i'm
mediate and practical solution of
the most urgent problems con-
fronting member nations instead
of wasting time with romantic
projects such as a "Mercado Co.
nun Lat.nGamericano".
The Association contended that
among virtually insuperable obsta-
clcs to such a common market
are: the wide diversity in economic
and financial systems among the
countries of Latin America; the
absence Of practical bases for ex-
tensive commerce between c0un-
tries as far apart as Mexico and
Argentina: and the lack of COM
mon political interests.
1t conceded, however, that some
advances might be made toward
the establishment of more limited
regional markets among countries
within the same economic and geo.
graphic zones, but not on the
scale envisioned by Chilean foreign
relations minister Alberto Sepulve.

HORNY QUESTION
Are Lawmakers influenced?

racy, seeks the help of that portion
of the Federal Government which
is closest and most responsive to
him-his Congressman.
Harris Provides Example
1t was this sort of situation
which Representative Oren Harris,
Democrat of Arkansas, chairman
of the House Commerce Commit
tee, confronted few months ago.
A citizen of his State was in
terested in a pending application
for radio license in Pine Bluff,
Ark. Mr.. Harris obliged by writ
ing to the Federal Communica-
tons Commission concerning the
matter. And he vigorously denies
that he acted either improperly or
imprudently.
Perhaps the case of Representa-
tive Harris was an exceptional one.
He is, after all, head of the very
committee to which FEC person.
mel are beholden. His simple re-
quest for information might be
considered a demand for prefer
entail treatment.
This, however, cannot be the
whole answer, unless one is pre-
pared to contend that a person
with an influential Congressman
has fewer rights than one who is
represented by a nonentity.
1t is possible that Bernard
Goldfine would declare that he,
too, should not be penalized
merely because his friends are
important.
The difference, however, is plain:
Congressman Harris constituent
in Arkansas asked the help of the
man who is supposed to represent
him; Mr.. Goldflne, on the other
hand, enlisted the aid of the man
who is supposed to represent the
President of the United States.
The position outlined above
would, Of course. have no rele-
vance If a member of Congress
interceded with a Federal agency
in return for-or in expectation of
"a material reward. For, in that
event, he would be acting not as
a representative but as a bought
and-paid-for agent.
But as long as the Congress
mans intercession is disinteresteds
it may indeed fall into a different
category than a telephone call
from the White House.
The distinction is perhaps fine
one. Most members Of Congress,
however. insist that it is highly
significant.
And they are fully resolved to
resist the efforts Of those who
ignore 1t.

sit on our piazzas in the evening
or on Sunday, or for hours on
the bank Of the creek watching
the float on the quiet water. We
are the people who pause on the
busy street to pass the time of
day. or in our Offices push our
work aside TO chat with a friend,
perhaps even a stranger, during
business hours. Within this basic
quiet lies the power to solve our
problems. Recollecting ourselves,
we shall face even the race prob
lem with a certain detachment.
1t hasn't been long since 1t was
bad form to suggest that there was
a race problem. No one brings
that up now, though there is still
considerable opinion that if we left
it alone it would solve itself. May
be so. But it won't be left alone
in the world we live in; and we
have to live in that world. There
fore, with our politicians still
standing upon the battlements and
shouting defiance to the vague
hosts they see approaching, it
might be well for us to try to de-
termine what we are defending,
what we can defend. what we want
to defend. Let us avoid the mis-
take our fathers made in 81. BY
their own admiSsion-this was GER
tainly true of the leading State,
South Carolina-they went to war
to defend slavery. Before the four
bitter years we're done, they we're
cursing slavery and sometimes,
unfortunately, the slaves. Today's
battlements are metaphorical;
there are no fire-eating Rhetts
and Yanceys any more. But the
politicians like to imagine them
selves in the midst of a struggle,
and indeed they are, but fortu-
nately for them, a bloodlesS one.
While they shout on, then, con-
cerned Of course to save not only
the South but also their jobs, let
us pause for a moment to under
stand the shouting, and so make
the struggle as reasonable and its
event as desirable as we can.

Betrayed by Friends
Victimized by friends and be-
trayed by spoilsmen, Gen. Grant
himself was apparently an honest
man. He accepted countless gifts,
but on at least one occasion he
foiled a great public swindle.
The event centered on the 1869

President and persuading him not
to let the United States Treasury

The scheme, which involved
Gen. Grants brother-in-law,
Abel Rathbone Corbin. a New
York stock speculator, was no less
than an audacious attempt to
corner the gold market.
But while Fisk ran up the price
of gold from 1877 to 1862. President
Grant quietly ordered the Treas
ury to sell. The Gould-Fisk
bubble exploded.
Later a furious storm broke
around the Grant administration

the Credit Mobilier scandals dis

Congressman in the give-away of
nearly 100000 square miles of
