GUATEMALA, Aug. 18 (AP).
Government employees who
have mistresses will be fired,
President Miguel Ydigoras said
yesterday in an order which
startled this Central American
nation. Nothing like this ever
happened here before.
In his order to all govern

"The public is murmuring,
and rightly. because many

employees not only have mis-

Alliance With Lotins Leaves
PubIic-Privote Issue Vague

PUNTA DEL ESTE, Uruguay,
Aug. 15 (AP).-The United
States and Latin America have
launched a $50 billion attack
on poverty and social injustice,
but one aspect Of the program
has been left a little vague.
That is the question Of
whether public as well as pri-
vate sectors of Latin Americas
economy will get some of the
money.
1t made a difference to the
Cuban delegate at the Inter-
American Social and Economic
Conference here - Ernesto
(Che) Guevara, a MarxiSt rep
reSenting a state-controlled
economy.
1t also meant something to
the chief United States dele
gate. Treasury Secretary Doug
las Dillon. Public versus private
enterprise in such things as
power generation is an explo-
Sive issue in the United States.
Guevara Move Fails
Mr.. Guevara tried hard to
change the conferences final
declaration to read that funds
would be applied to all sectors
Of a nations economy under
President Kennedy's Alliance
for Progress program.
Mr.. Dillon resisted this,
arguing the American people
would not understand any
pledge that failed to support
private enterprise.
The final declaration said
the program aims 'to stimulate
private enterprise in order to
encourage the development Of
Latin American countries at a
rate which will help them pro-
vide jobs for their growing
populations, to eliminate un-
employment and to take their
place among the modern in
dustrialized nations Of the
world"
However, 1t seems certain
that some government enter
p-ses, similar to the United
Suites Tennessee Valley Au-
>Iority, will benefit from the
program and undoubtedly will
emerge as individual Latin
American nations shape up
their development projects.
insufficient Funds Seen
Many Latin American nations
contend their private capital
resources are insufficient to
meet development needs and
have formed development cor
porationS to establish and
operate industries. Some are
strictly government-run and
others are operated in COM
bination with private interests.
Chile, Mexico and Venezuela
are nations that have long
established government devel-
opment corporations.
The conferences final dec
laration appeared to have left
room for these government cor
porationS to get some Of the
$40 billion.
It says the money will be
spread out over the next decade
and that "the countries of
Latin America agree to devote

SchoeIIer Thinks
DroP-Out Problem

Arne Schoeller, School Board
candidate, said today that the
Board should take the initiative II
necessary in promoting study and
action on a through overhaul of
our city tax structure 50 that ade-
quate funds will be available to
provide for the expanding needs
Of public education and of the
city. Property tax rates in Min
neapolis are ''uncomfortably high
and there must be a new tax
source"
Schoeller said, cor our schools
and city win suffer" The heavy
responsibility Of the School Board
under the Special Independent
School District for seeing that we
have the funds necessary for the
soundest and best education we
can afford makes it necessary for
the Board to take action in the
area of tax reform" the 81 year
old attorney claimed. He spoke at
a coffee party at the home Of Mrs
Ralph Muller, 1872 West Rustic
Lodge.
Schoeller also expanded on a.
theme he first introduced into the
campaign at the Holsey Memorial
CINE. Church on May 21st when
he recommended study and action
on the drop out problem among
high school students in parts Of
the city. In addition to suggesting
vocational training facilities IN
addition to those at Vocational
High School to teach slCIlls which
can help young people get jobs,
"Schoeller asked that special at
tention to delinquency problems be
considered He also favored spec

ments and other added aids to
schools in blghted areas, ''includ-
ing some Of those where our Ne

Arthur Naftalin, DFL and ULC
endorsed nominee for mayor. said
Friday night that national Iegis-
lation dealing with important lib
eral programs cannot be effective
unless they are vigorously and m
telhgently supported at the local
level"
Speaking before about TOO sup
porters at a Hlmrhrey-Nafta
rally at he Pick-Nicollet Hotel,
Nsftalin said. 1T is at the local
level that services, issues and pro-
jects intimately touch the people,
and today we find almost three
fOurths Of the people in the nation
living in our cities.
Thus It Is IN the cities Of Amer
lea that government and politics
have their greatest Importance, !"
he said. "and this fact points to
the great need for effective local
leadership to work hand-in-hand
with our national administration. !"
Naftalin continued, I'm my door
to-door campaigning I have visit
ed with people about their prob
lemS-being out Of job, worry
ing about educating their children,
and general concern about increas-
ing taxes, the prospect Of being
displaced by the freeway, and
changing neighborhood conditions,
such as the movement of Migrants
into Nicollet Island.
People are not apathetic about
these and other problems" Nafta-
lin said. They want good law en-
forcement, a wholesome and clean
water supply, proper schools and
safe living conditions.
But in order to actively follow
through on this sort Of concern,
the people need responsible and
positive leadership. BY themselves
they can't propose and administer
programs. They look to their elect
ed officials to set the course, and
II I am elected mayor Of Mime
apolis June Is, I plan to set the
course for immediate and positive
action which viii steer our city
to safer, healthier and happier Hy-
