People Not Asked
In Peron Ousting
Ramon Eduardo Ruiz, Instruc
tor in history, said last night that
force# that overthrew Peron in
Argentina did hot represent the
people. Ruiz wan speaking at
the Browning Room lecture neries
on the topic, "Trouble Spot# in
Latin America."
Ruiz traced the hintory of poli
tics in Argentina. He naid that
in the 1930's a new clans began
to rine, those who were merch
ants interested In the welfare of
Argentina, native industralists,
and urban labor. This class, he
stressed, agitated for a modern,
industrial state.
Ruiz said that Peron was the
expression of this new group.
And when Peron ruled, indus
trialists were encouraged, tariffs
were raised, urban labor wan
supported, and the landless were
given land.
Ruiz maintained that the group
which succeeded Peron is another
totalitarianism, but the new gov
ernment in composed of the forces
of the old landed oligarchy that
ruled Argentina from the early
1800's to 1916 and from 1930 to
1943.
This oligarchy, he said, was
composed of church, landlords
and the military, and wan found
ed on the impetus that meat and
grain are the basis of Argentine
prosperity.
Ruiz said that Argentina is at
a crossroads. It can either pro
gress, if democrats are given ex
pression in daily life and mediums
like the great newspaper. La
Prenza. which is now cloned, is
reopened, or else in Argentina
one dictator has been replaced
with a repressive oligarchy.
Ruiz also touched on the prob
lem of Guatemala where a Com
munist-tinted government was
overthrown last year with U. H.
help. <*
Ruiz said that the present
ruler of Guatemala has doTie
nothing about land reforms or
education, and stressed the im
portance of the United States
recognizing democratic govern
ments in Latin America that face
the need of land distribution and
education.
Ruiz added that the economic
importance of Latin America to
the U. S. is considerable. He
said that of oil imports, 83 per
cent comes from Latin America,
and of U. S. exports of machinery
50 per cent goes to Latin Amer
ica.
Ruiz said Latin America has
a powerful voice in the U.N. Of
the 60 members in that body,
20 are representatives of Latin
American countries.
Enumerating the contributions
of Latin America in art and cul
ture, he cited many great artists,
writers, composers, and conclud
ed with the distinction, "every
Latin American is a poet."

SEE THE FACTS!
University of Oregon Students Will Spend
This report is from the U. S. College
Market of TIME market research, Feb
ruary, 1955, and projected to the Uni
versity of Oregon enrollment of 4800.
$1,160,000
this year on wearing apparel!
It's hard to believe, but according to statistics it's true!
The question Eugene businessmen are asking is "where will they spend this?"
Oregon students are going to spend this money at the stores they have heard of . . ..
the stores they are sure will have the merchandise they want. Students will not spend time
going from store to store hunting for an item. Emerald advertisers will find their advertising
brings student response, because students do read the Emerald and the ads. Of 228 students
interviewed last fall, 57% read the Emerald daily; 75% read the Emerald three times a week
or oftener.
The undergraduate market is a BIG market
^for many products right now . . . and they
are today's best customers for new tastes,
ideas and habits.
