Lowry presented a program on Latin America to the members of the Wednesday Study club at their meeting Jan uary 17th. This Is one of a series planned to give a wider knowl edge and better understanding of various countries with which the United States has been brought in closer contact by the conditions of war. Mrs. Wortman'a paper stressed the need of western hemispher ical solidarity for this country as well as our neighbors to the north and south. The monetary help given by the United States to Latin American Republics has brought to us a much needed source of supplies, both for war and civilian use, Mrs. Wortman stated. Mrs. Lowry's talk highlighted some of the political and eco nomic differences between our countries, and told of the incep tion of the Monroe Doctrine a definite declaration of foreign policy that has stood the test of time. After the Latin Americas gained their freedom from for eign rule, only the enforcement of that policy by the United States government protected the South Americas from coloniza tion by European powers, Mrs Lowry stated. Our policy of non intervention in. the internal af fairs of other nations, especially in Mexico, has done much to bring about more amicable rela tions, the speaker said. Mrs. Lowry's talk was based on the book "The Americas and Tomor row" by Edna Prewitt Mrs. J. W. Brown, whose hus band, the son of Mr. and Mrs. H. L. Brown, is with the allied forces somewhere in France, was a guest for the afternoon, and Mrs. E. A. Moore was welcomed on her return as a member of the club.
