Johnson Expected
ToInitiate Shakeup
Of Latin Alliance
Reorganization
Program May
Gust Moscoso
BY the Associated Press

President Johnson is re-
ported to be planning a sweep
ing reorganization of the Al
lance for Progress in a broad
move to develop more dynamic
and effective United States
relations with Latin America.
A well informed congress
sional source predicted a COM
plete reorganization and real
shakeup" with changes in it's
top echelon and in the al
hance's methods of operation.
At the White House, Press
Secretary Pierre Salinger told
reporters that Mr.. johnson is
looking over the entire range
of governmental operations to
see how they could be i'm
proved. Mr.. Salinger declined
to discuss the alliance prob
lens specifically.
Asked whether a reorganiza-
ton would mean the replace
ment of Teodoro Moscoso as
co-ordinator of the alliance
operation, Mr.. Salinger said
he did not believe that Mr..
johnson had had time during
his brief weeks in the White
House to decide on the effec-
tiveneSs Of Mr.. Moscoso's Of
flee.
No Decision Made
The congressional informant
indicated that no decision had
yet been made on Mr.. Mos
coso's position, but he sug-
gested that Mr.. Moscoso might
be asked to take some new as
signment such as replacing
Ambassador deLeSSep S. Nor
rison, who recently resigned as
United States Ambassador to
the Organization of American
States.
Or. he said, Mr.. MoScoso
might become United States
member of the newly projected
Inter American Committee to
coordinate Alliance programs
among the Western Hemisphere
of nations.
There is widespread specu-
lation in diplomatic quarters
that Mr.. johnson may name
Thomas c. Mann. 81, United
States Ambassador to Mexico,
to some new high-level position
with broad authority over the
whole range of United States
policies and operations in Latin
America.
Now in Washington
Mr.. Mann, who has had long
experience in Latin American
affairs as a career diplomat,
was an Assistant Secretary of
State for Inter-American At
fairs before he became Am
basSador To Mexico in 1861. He
is now in Washington, having
come here three days ago to
testify before a Senate COM
mittee on apending treaty con-
cernirg the border between the
United States and Mexico.

More important, the quality of the

exciting.
INTENSIVE COMMUNITY
PLANNING
The exhibition came about
through the determined effort and
intensive planning of various COM
munity members. There was reali-
zation that the Indian must be
removed from the mental and
spiritual Preservation" on which
he had been placed and that he must
be allowed to participate in all
areas ofAmericana artistic endeav-
ors, rather than simply the tradi-
tional ones common to most Indian
exhibitions. The organizing COM
mittee also recognized that, if an
Indian contribution to the whole
field of American arts and crafts
is to be made, tribal barriers would
have to be removed.

of responsibility for the foreign
policy of the United States that
the Congress is suggesting the
President reduce future u. S. con-
tributions to the United Nations
or its agencies. in the event such
contributions will be used for as
sistance to Cuba.
''The action of the United

the agricultural assistance pro-

travention of United States foreign
policy toward Cuba. The United
States, along with the rest of the
western hemisphere, has decalred
itself the enemy Of Castro govern

ing Castro's economic and poll
tical position in order to open
the way for the establishment of
a democratic government in Cuba.
The United Nations action. de-
signed to improve Castro's
agricultural sector, if successful,
would strengthen rather weaken
Castro's position and is there
fore in direct opposition to the
avowed policy of the United States
toward Cuba. If the United States
succumbs quietly to the United
Nations position, we are letting
the United Nations make our
foreign policy for us--and foreign
policy which, in this case, is far
different from that which we have
time and again stated we are pur-

polite of the United Nations to
overlook the fact that the United
States is contributing 40 percent
of the total contributions to the
