There was no official United

in American delegates privately
.cenSured the proposal, cir

reception, the Brazilians de-
cided not to submit their plan
to a working committee.
The Brazilian proposal ap-

pedo the United States-backed
plan to create a seven-nation
co-ordinating committee to
pass on aid projects and give
Latin Americans more influ-
ence in overall control of the

The Brazilians repeatedly
had still another maneuver in

has indicated that if the seven

be ratified by the congress of

candidates ran at large, and
the top eight will get seats.

were still to be decided.
Two big prizes were at stake:
