La DemOcracia de

yes de parte de las tres die

del Caribe, han disminuido
inmensamente.

Con los nuevos rumbos de

poner que la conspiraci6n de

THE INTERNATIONAL LAW OF THE SPACE

sin view of the advancements achieved lately
by science in the conquest of space, following
is 4 reproduction of our editorial of April 8,
1888, which at this moment acquires special
interest:
If there is any science wherein permanent dynamic con.
stitutes an essential element, that is international Law, because
it is matter Of daily recourse, so to speak, with every new
stuati0n faced by the countries, by the people and by science,
and in the different existing conditions. international Law is
not like a body of dead water, nor is it of the static kind. The
LaWsOf the Seas had to be gathered here and there and had to
accommodate gradually to the new needs created by the
steamship, or by modern warships or submarines. Later came
the international Law Of the Air, with the conquer of air by man.
In this atomic era it is no longer a fantasy to say that man
Is insthe Threshold Of the conquer of space. The United States
aSdsRussia have launched man-made satellites that now circle
the globe; and interplanetary travel, starting with the trip to
the Natural satellite Of the earth, seems to be far nearer to
realization than the human mind could conceive a few years
back Thus, in this era, when man is almost on the verge of
establishing physical contact with space regions that before
seemed to be pieces of abstract mathematics, the human forces
wiIlshave to cope with the problem of regulating the conduct
Of the States and of the people in the face of these new
everything be encouraged through instruments meaning broader
progress for humanity and to destroy every possibility Of those
new instruments ever being used from the open spaces to
dominate the earth.
1t is a case similar to that of the atomic energy, which
together with the incalculable benefits its discovery and conquer
represent for humanity, it can also be the source Of unthinkable
horrors when in the hands of mental devlates who aspire to
world domination.
A few days ago, this paper published an article by George
Marden on the Regulation of Space Control, saying that Russia
is trying to negotiate an arrangement with the United States
on The regulation Of space control, on condition that the United
States abandon their military bases overseas. A dangerous
preposition this is, to set a matter of pure war strategy as a
condition prior to an agreement on laws that have already
become a necessity. Precisely for the contrary, to prevent that
any@nation may try to control our planet from the spaces above,
of mace politics that the problem must be COPIED with. Ample
diseussions in the United Nations, where the most outstanding
International jurists may study this u Hndei a E topic rr iron an !
sensible solution.
Such discussions may lead to the laying Of the fundamental
principles of the international Law of the Space.

Democracy IN Central
America

Surely, with the ousting of
Cuba's dictatorial regime, Cen
trail American democracy
has received an invigorating
breath of life. 1t is at least
logical to presume that the
threats to the republican gov
eminent of Ramon Villeda
Morales, serious threats, in
deed, on the part of the three
relationships that existed in
the Caribbean area before
January LIST, have lessened
immensely.
AS is known, the Govern
ment of Honduras officially
denounced the existence of
a strong revolutionary move
ment against it, backed by the
Managua regime an ally of
the one overthrown in Havana
on Juanary LIST informing
that there were six hundred
men in Nicaraguan territory
under the command of Col.
Armando Velazquez, a Hondu.
ran enemy of Villeda Morales
government, and that on Nj
caraguan soil operated the
radio station that every day
insulted, and still insults, Hon.
duran President Villeda Mora
les, who assembled to the Pres
idency through a clean demo-
cratic process, as witnessed by
the people of Honduras and
by the nations of America.
With the new orientation
taken by continental politics
in favor of solidarious democ-
racy in America, it is logical
to suppose that the conspiracy
of the international alliance
of swords against the govern
ment of Villeda Morales has
suffered a blow, because the
environment in America is
not propitious at this mo-
ment for such an attempt
against Honduran republi-
canism.
Thus, democracy in Central
America has achieved a posi-
tive triumph with the downfall
of the Havana dictatorship, as
this event substantially debili-
tates the efforts intended to
GUST the democratic and au-
thentically popular regime
headed by Ramon Villeda Mo-
rales.
