I Poptum is an area without hign
.ways, approachable only by trails
; and air. Former President Jaun
(joe Arevalo had grand plans for
i converting the section into a model
agricultural colony. Millions of
di liars were spent on buildings,
machinery and livestock. But a
projected highway was never com
pleted. The socialist dream faded
out and the administration of Ja
cobo Arbenz Guzman liquidated
the assets and declared the experi
ment a failure. F.xiles sent there
find only houses in ruin and rust
ing farm machinery, desolation
similar to a deserted mining towa
in the Rockies.
