last night in a Beunos Aires

Mr.. Bravo y Puig said Il have

He added that in the United

from all 81 nations in the Or
ganization Of American States
have congregated at this lonely
seaside resort outside Monte
video to work out the machin-
cry for a hemisphere Alliance
for Progress.
In all discussions both here
and in Washington before
the conference, United States
representatives have empha-
sized that the Alliance for
Progress is a two-way compro-
mise. The United States Gov
ernment, they stress, is pre-
pared to commit itself to a vast
long-range aid plan for Latin
America, but in turn Latin
American countries must COM
nit themselves to drastic eco
nomic and social reforms.
This conference is seen as
the meeting ground for work
ing both these detectives into
concrete programs.
President Kennedy's letter
together with specific proposals
the United States delegation
already have circulated, are
calculated shots in the all-out
campaign to isolate the CubanS
at the meeting.
Before the conference even

been focused on impending
struggle between the United
States and Cubans for Latin
American support.
