Sc constituyo hace meses en- Es-
tados Unidos una comisi6n para
estudiar medidas ~destinadas a pro-
teger la industrial nacional del zinc
y del plomo.
Por una Serie de razones, estos
dos m~etales, tanto o mas que ell 20
bre, pasan por n gran crisis en-
Estados Unidos. habiendo sido &C.
rradas, estos uitimos meses, una
serie de minas y de establecimien-
tos con ellos relacionados.
Por una inercia del pensamiento,
comun a todos los paises del or
be, cuando ocurre Ina crisis de es-
ia n~aturaleza, ell primer remedio
que meme a la imagination es &C.
rrar la entrada a %productos simila-
res procedentes del extranjero.
Estados Unidos no ha sido una
exception y la comision a que nos
referimos estudla la posibilidad de
aumentar los derechos de entrada
a los Estados Unidos del zinc y del
plomo de procedencia extranjera,
o bien crear I'LL sistema de Quotas,
o amoas cosas a la vez.
Ocurre, sin embargo, que estos
dos minerales constituyen una sus-
tancial fuente de ingreso para n
serie de paises del mundo. En-
nuestro C~ontinepte, especialmente
para Mexico y Peru.
En- un convention sobre Conner
clio Exterior que Sc celebro recien-
temente en- Nueva York, Ell senior
Prieto Lopez, p%residente de la Con-
federation de Camaras de Indus
tria DC Mexico, que hablo en- nom
bre de toda la America Latina, hizo
una scertada ~referencia, no va al
problema del plomo y del zinc,
sino a la mentalidad hasta cierto
punto provinciana de considerar
los problemas economics desde
ell angulo estrictamente nacional
en- vez de proyectarlos en- ell vasto
escenario, no va del Continente,
sino del mundo.
Mexico dijo, comprs productos
a los Estados Unidos por valor de
300 millones de dolares en- cifras
redondas. Esta6os Unidos compra
a Mexico por I'm valor de 400 mi
Homes de d6lares. La balanza CO.
mercial propiamente dicha de sal
da, asi con un deficit de 400 mi
Homes de doleres para Mexico.
Ahora bien, entire los principles
productos de la exportacion mexi-
cana a los Estados Unidos Sc en-
cuentran ell plomo y ell zinc que
representan, ellos solos, ell 20 por
ciento del total exportado por Me-
xico con una cifra absolute de 80
millones de d6lares. Ell aumento
de los derechos de entrada, o Ell
establecimiento de Quotas para es-
tos dos minerales, tendria una ira
gica repercusion para la economic
mexicana sin mejorar sensible
mente la %situacion global de la
economic de los Estados Unidos.
En- 10 que Sc refiere al Peru,
la situacion es todavia mas tragica.
La exportaci6n de plomo y zinc a
los Estados Un.dos representa- una
suma de As miltones de dolares, ell
Is por ciento de la exportacion to-
tai del Peru. Pero ALI, la situa-
cion Sc complica porque los limites
a estos dos mirerales vienen des-
pues de la grave crisis del cobre GU
va exportacion r~epresentaba para
ell Peru ell 10 pOr ciento de su ex-
portacion total con una cifra de
unos 80 millones de dolares. Es
decir, las medidas que estudia la
comision norteamericana, y que
afectan a SUI economic en- n pro-
porc!on seguramente inferior al l
por ciento, ~interesan a la exporta.

your physician should be con-
suited. While the causes OF dam
druH are not fully understood,
IL Is known that the condition can
develop into more serious intlam-
nation Of the scalp unless def
mite hygienic and therapeutic
measures are taken.
Medical authorities advise the
following rules for good care Of
the hair and scalp:
/. Since cleanliness Is the chief
objective Of all care Of the hair
and scalp, washing az least once
a week tmore often II external
conditions or condition Of the
scalp makes the hair dirty with
simple soap shampoo is recon-
mended. II should be remembered
that no method Of shampoo in
fuences the amount Of oil secret
ed by the scalp, prolongs life
Of existing hair, or makes hair
grow. A good shampoo should do
no more than clean the hair.
2. Combing and brushing are
desirable not only for the sake
Of appearance, but also because
they enhance cleanliness Of the
hair and scalp.
3. Antiseptics and astringents
applied 10 the scalp mainly serve
as good excuse for stimulation
by rubbing, which can just as
well be done without chemical
agents. or the condition Of your
scalp is such that popular chem
zeal remedies" are needed, medi-
cal attention should be sought

or territory to another. This
would free the grant money
apportioned to States not i'm
mediately able to use it. The
money could then be distrib-
uted among other States which
have the cleanup project and
the necessary matching funds
to qualify for Federal aid
money.
Finally, the total authorize
ton over a l0-year period
would be doubled to 81 billion.
Amendment to Pollution Act
The new bill comes in the
form of amendment to the Fed
eral Water Pollution Act of
1856. also offered by Mr.. Blat-
mix. Substantially, the pro-
posed changes would give the
act the strength the Minnesotan
proposed in his original draft
three years ago. Congress then
was willing to settle for only
half the law Mr.. Blatnik offered.
In a speech from the House
floor just before introduction
the amendments, the legislator
pointed out that the present
program even in its limited form
has greatly stimulated waste
disposal works construction all
ovre the country.
Sees Answer in Decade
more States have registered
record construction Of this ma
ture into the last two years
than in any time in the past"
he asserted. He added that
with the added Federal impetus
he proposes I'VE could very well
have solved in 10 years the
serious municipal pollution
menace now contributing al
most half of the total pollution
loads in Americas streams.
Mr.. Blatnik also used the
House forum to take a. belt at
the Eisenhower administration
for its recent urgings to drop
the aid program altogether
This deliberately deceitful ma
newer would set the clock back
80 years, for that's how long
1t has taken to get a truly
effective pollution abatement
program under way" Mr.. Blat-
mix declared.
The Minnesotan's action
capped a growing demand for
expanding the program to save
vital water resources. Leading
conservation, recreation and
municipal organizations Of the
Nation have been clamoring to
/ improve rather than destroy
the legislation and the streams
along with 1t.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1958-03-28

annual grant to indi-
vidual communities also would
be doubled. the bill specifies.
The present limit is $250.000
per project per community each
year.
Another feature is a provision
enabling separate communities
jointly to build mutually bene-
ficial waste disposal works
with the help of a combination
of Federal grants allotted to
each Jurisdiction. At present.
each construction project Is
entitled to only one grant.
This section is designed espe-
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1958-03-28

cially to benefit those bloated
metropolitan completes that
consist Of more than one po-
litical jurisdiction, and to en-
courage area-wide planning
and action for unified waste
disposal systems. Metropolitan
Washington is a perfect ex-
emple of the politically mixed
up urban-suburban complex
that could benefit by this pro-
vision.
The bill further would permit
re-allocation of unobligated
Federal grants from one State
