AMERICA San Francisco (UP) The United States can overcome the so-called Nazi infiltration of South America by an energetic influx of North American tech nicians and a large-scale inter change of students and profes sors, according to Dr. Gustav Egloff, world-famous petroleum and explosives expert. Dr. Egloff, director of research for a Chicago oil products firm, recently returned from a survey trip to South America as one of a group of 21 American special ists in their field. The p"rip was sponsored by the Nelson Rocke feller Pan American committee. "What I saw in South America was enough to convince me South American countries not only have an abundance of natu ral resources needed for their own industrialization but also the latent talent to grasp prob lems involved and develop them to their fullest extent," Dr. Eg loff said. Latin Americans are tempera mentally fitted to develop these talents among their nationals he said, but need instruction from the outside, chiefly from the United States, to develop their own technical schools. Dr. Egloff advocated United States action to launch this edu cational program. What is need ed is an exchange of students and professors by the tens of thousands with South American countries at U. S. government expense, he said. At the same time, he said, South American children from kindergarten on should receive instruction calculated to develop a natural bent for technical sub jects. The Germans long ago began tl.is sort of education and the stu dent and professor exchange plan at government expense, but Dr. Egloff feels Americans can do a better job.

Klamath Soldier HeldA.W.O.L.Here Robert L. White, 20. Klamath Falls, was being held in the county jail today pending ar rival of a military guard to take him back to Fort Lewis, Wash.

In support of Its conten tion, the association cited the views of the state's attorney gen eral and derisions of high courts. The principle of the punch board is essentially a gamble and Is morally wrong," the statement said. In general discussion, the Rev. Mr. Coleman said the dis trict attorney (George W. Neil son) was unable to find any court decisions holding punch boards to be legal. Control Needed Mayor H. S. Deuel pointed out that regardless of any gov erning state laws the punch boards were in operation and hence it was preferable to have some control over them through license fees. Councilmen Larry Schade and J. C. Collins ex pressed similar views, Mr. Col lins saying the fees would cut down the profits and thus re tard the accumulation of punch board money in hands that might become "too powerful.-' Mayor Deuel said he appre ciated the stand of the minister ial association which "cannot compromise with what you think is wrong."
