reSs of human society. In
many instances the causes of
the disorders in the world
are deep seated, emotional,
economic, racial and reli-
gious. The problems are COM
pleX. and do not yield to
simple solutions. particular
ly since, as stated above, we
are committed to the princi-
piles of self determination
and intervention.
The goal of the Soviet Un-
ion is in sharp contrast to
our desires to promote world
peace and human progress.
The Reds are not concerned
about solving the problems of
the Middle East, nor of Cuba,
nor of the Congo In fact,
they do not desire the prob
lens to be solved. Their goal
is to foment discord, promote
violence and to destroy the
normal processes of govern
ment. Intervention, either
overtly or covertly, is one of
their accepted techniques.
When one realizes, there
fore. that atheistic, mate
rialistic. aggressive interna-
tional communism is deliber-
ately attempting to prevent
solutions, the real nature of
the problem of our foreign
relations becomes apparent.
Nevertheless. if commu-
nism were to disappear from
the world tomorrow, sub
stantial problems would re-
main to challenge the best
minds working in harmony
to seek solutions.
Actually, it is a modern
day version of the conflict
between the builder and the
destroyer. A genius can de-
vote his life to the creation
of a masterpiece which a
careless child could smash to
bits in temper tantrum.
The only reassuring ele-

that throughout the history

builders triumph and the &C.

Castro's grandstand move
to a Harlem hotel was not,
as some surmised, a play to
the Negro population in that
area. 1t was done with an eye
to attracting Puerto Ricans.
It's. major objective was to
stimulate the small group of
Puerto Rican nationalists
who not too long ago gave
their own government trou-

against former President

We. and Puerto Rico, may

Zens from that country now

Fidel. The state of affairs in

have had the problems of all
minorities arriving in this
country-the Italians, Irish,
and others. Their success is
pleasing.
Puerto RicanS are well
based in small businesses, in
trades, and in the profess
sions. There are lawyers, doc
tors. dentists. Leaders of
their community organiza-
tionS are responsible men
and women with an appro-
pirate pride in themselves
and their accomplishments.
IN the field of services it is
the Puerto Ricans who en-
able the economy of New
York to function.
About a year ago the less
responsible elements Of the
city's mass media, and that
of the Nation as we'll, did
Puerto Ricans an injustice in
the period when an outbreak
of juvenile delinquency got
out of hand. The delinquents
of Puerto Rican ancestry
were merely a part of the
overall problem. 1t was over
emphasized. Once proper
methods were applied, the
outbreak was contained. Real
progress has been made in
this field.
AS the newest of groups to
come to this country, the
Puerto RicanS have had the
further handicap of a Ian
guage barrier. Schools and
social agencies have not yet
beer able fully to cope with
it, but tremendous advances
have been made.
Meanwhile, every day sees
