(IP) A new constitution for Paraguay, presented as creating "an organic, reformist and na tionalist democracy" and des cribed officially as one of the most advanced in the Western Hemisphere, will be submitted to a nationwide plebiscite Aug. 4. It was promulgated last night by Gen. Jose Felix Estigarribia, president of Paraguay since Aug. IS, 1939, and virtual dic tator since last Feb. 18. It centralizes administration of the country's affairs, pro vides for state regulation of pro duction and protection of work men and government assign ment of public lands to farmers. Public Interests First It decrees that public interests must not be overshadowed by private interests and gives the government a notable increase of power in the social and eco nomic spheres. In supplanting the constitu tion of 1870, adopted after a dis astrous five-year war with Bra zil, Argentina and Uruguay that ended with a majority of the population dead, it creates a state council representing gov ernment, rural industries, fi nance, commerce, education, re ligion and the army and navy. The term of office for the president is changed from four years to five. Members of both chambers of congress also are to serve five years. Formerly the 20 senators were elected for six years and the 40 deputies, four years. Gen. Estigarribia, who suc cessfully reorganized the Para guayan army during the Bolivian-Paraguayan war over the Gran Chaco, proclaimed his vir tual dictatorship last February, after the cabinet and the con gress had resigned. For "Peoples Welfare" He said he took the step to save the country from "a hor rible anarchy" threatened by in ternal disorder and lack of co operation by the opposition Col orado party.

By Fred Bailey Washington (U.R) Expansion of the national forests purchase program to reach 200,000,000 acres by 1950 is planned by the national forest reservation commission.
