SO. AMERICAN LINKS
THROUGH ATTACHES
WASHINGTON. Nov. 20. (AP)
The war department will aak con
gress. It was learned today to double
the number of United States military
attaches In South America.
The action will provide anothor
link in inter-American protective
bonds. It follows a steady Increase
In Latin American military and avia
tion attaches in Washington, and In
the number, of special military and
naval missions being sent from the
United States to neighboring repub
lics. Because of lack of funds, the war
department now maintains only six
military attnehes below the Rio
Grande. They are on duty at the
embassies and legations In Argentina.
Cuba, Mexico, Brazil, Chile and
Costa Rica.
Some of these attaches are accred
ited to four or five countries, often
widely scattered. They have little op
portunity to remain long in any one
place and thus familiarize them
selves with military work in those
countries.
The war department wants to In
crease the number of attaches &o no
single officer will have to visit more
than two countries.
