UPI Foreign News Analys


In Sac Paulo University's
new recreation center the atti-
tude of assembled Latin Amer
leans at the end of two years
of the Alliance for Progress
was p%essimistic, if not hostile.
For its part, the United
States, which initiated the $40
billion program to aid the de-
velopment of Latin America
and lift the living standards of
its 200 million inhabitants, had
lived up fully to its promises.
In q months it had allocated
$2.3 billion for projects ranging
from roads to power projects,
from thousands Of homes and
school rooms to hundreds of
health clinics and from Food for
Peace to construction of new
industries.
Yet other elements, both in
ternal and external among the
10 participating Latin Ameri-
can nations, contributed to an
overall air of disappointment.
When the Alliance for Pro-
gresS came into existence it
had, for its goals ~ besides
economic development - social
reforms and peaceful evolution
as opposed to violent revolu-
ton.
Yet in two years it had seen
military revolts in Ecuador,
Peru, Guatemala, Honduras
and the Dominican Republic.

huge inequities between the
very rich and the very poor.
Land reform, with the natable

Witness Says
Mrs. Thompson
Knew Of Rival

MINNEAPOLIS, MINI. CUPID
Carol Thompson, the victim

case, knew the name Of her

confided it to a neighbor.
This was told Wednesday in
the 18th day of the trial of
Carols husband, T. Eugene

reminding a plot which ended
with her bludgeon-stab Staying
in her home on the morning of
March 6.
The neighbor, Mrs. Merilyn
ErikSon, said she heard the
name Of Jackie Olesen ''some-
time around Christmas, 1862"

darkly attractive divorce who
has told from the witness stand
of her longstanding romance
with Cotton Thompson and of
his plea to "give me II
months" until he could get
enough money to support his
mistress and family.
Thompson, IS, accumulated
more than 81 million in acciden-
tai death insurance on his wife.
A blonde, middle-aged wom-
an, Mrs. Erikson testified she
lived just next door, to the east,
to the 21a story Thompson home
at 1920 Hillcrest Ave. in the ex-
elusive Highland Park section
Of st. Paul.

The purpose of buoys is to
