FDR, Jr's Wife
Gets Divorce in
Nevada Court
MIND EN,; Nev-- May 21 -T-PV
In a five-rninu'e private hearing
todav Mrs franklin D. Roosevelt.
;r , received a divorce.
She accused the son of th late
president iof extreme mental
cruelty, an accusation he formally
denied.
The former Ehel du Pont, of
the great chemical empire, had
not a word of comment after
Judge Watson signed the decree.
George Sprifigmeyer of Reno,
Mrs. Roosevelt's attorney, brought
the case befr to avo-d r-ublicita'.
'After all." he told reporters in
Reno yesterday. 'Mr Roosevelt
vime day may be president of the
United States ";i
This week Roosevelt was elect
ed to congress from a New York
district. As, to hi eligibility to the
presidency.; the? e is some debate.
He was born in Canada But there
has never been a court ruling to
determine -whether that circum
stance would cloud eligibility to
take this nation's highest office.
Aid to Backward Nations to
Move Slowly in.First Stages
WASHINGTON. May 21 -PV- President Truman's plan to put
American help into backward nations will probably move a great deal
slower than first guesses had it. The stream of American machinery
moving into the more primitive nations will b at mere trickle at first.
It will need a relatively small sum of $90,000,000 for the first year
startinf July I, Here's why;, i
The backward area need to do a
good deal for their peoples before
they will be able to absorb much
modern machinery. The needs are
outlined in a study the Interna
tional Labor Office (ILO) has just
done. It's on Latin America, but
the findings can be applied to al
most any backward area. The ILO
report is betng discussed right now
in Montevideo, Uruguay, where j ,,4 up consume,- goods indus-
the cost of the machinery for the
school rooms. Some American help
in dollars may be allocated to
buying classroom machinery. Much
may go to financing American
teachers.
The ILO report says the gov
ernments should plan first to de
velop their own raw materials.
ILO experts are talking over Latin
America's plans for raising living
standards. The report says the La
tin nations need to fir.d out:
1. Just how many workers they
have. 2. What kinds of Industries
they need, what they can build out
of their own raw materials and
what skills they have to teach their
people to do the job. 3. How they
can best train their workers. Mas
es of them are peons .who ride
into town on burros with no no
tion of how to use a lathe, a drill
press or even a monkey wrench.
4. How to train supervisors to see
that the trained peon does a good
job. 5 How to find the teachers
to train the supervisors. 6. And.
once they have all this, how to
shunt the trained worker to the
job that needs him.
Slow Diagnosis
The ILO is 29 years old and has
approached this diagnosis slowly,
so that much of this advice has al
ready gone out piecemeal and
many Latin governments are al
ready started on some of the pro
grams. For some years now the Un
ited States has loaned technical
men to the southern republics, and
many of the young Latin workers
tries for their own people and
build up both transportation and
power. The report thinks Latin
America may have to wait a while
before it can set us any heavy

Mac Pliearson
Undecided on
Recall Move
CORVALL1S, May JlH-VTalk
of a possible recall movement '
against State Treasurer Walter
Pearson and Secretary of State
Earl T. Newbry was heard here to
day. There was no certainty, how
ever, that there would be such a
move.
Hector Mac Phearson, ex-state
representative and former profes
sor of political science at Oregon
State college, said he had discussed
it with political leaders.
He added that he had not de
cided whether to sponsor a recall.
The possibility arose because of
the recent appointment of repub
lican Ray Smith. Portland and de
mocrat, Robert MacLean. Wild
port, to become state tax commis
sioners. Political opponents said
the two were inexperienced in tax
matters.
They would replace the veteran
commissioners republican Earl Fi
sher and democrat Wallace Wharton.
