Machado, my conclusion was

spect." ,
Criticism Osiitiett o
Porter id reports that
some or the pr is cem-munist-controlled
seemed ver
ified by the fact that his TV
speech about the danger of
communism was reported in
one newspaper without "a
line of my criticism of communism."
In his House speech, Port-j
r suefiested that the u.5. i
could be most helpful to Vene
zuela in this critical post
revolutionary period by mak
ing clear "the opposition to
tyrannies and love for de
mocracies felt by its citizens"
and by promoting more ex
changes of students, leaders,
artists and ideas. He also
urged "a reduction of arma
ments among Latin American
nations" and "an inter- par
liamentary conference of the
o
countries of the western hem
isphere learn more about
translating the will of the
people into law."
Although Porter's visit got
nooe of the fanfare attached
to that of Nixon, it received
favorable notice from two
eastern newspapers which
co'ver the Latin American
scene more completely than
most, the New York Times
and Christian Science Moni
tor. The Times entitled its
editorial "t h e ambassador
from Oregon" and said:
"There is an obvious les
son to be drawn from the dif
ferent receptions given by
Venezuelans in Caracas to
Vice President Nixon in May
and to Rep. Porter . . . The
reason could not be more
simple and Vice President
Nixon himself put his finger
upon it immediately when he
suffered his ordeal. The Vene
zuelans had nothing against
him, as he realized; they were
reacting to 10 years of exces
sive American friendliness to
the hated and brutal dictator
ship of Gen. Perez Jimenez.
Enemy of Dictators
"Congressman Porter has
gained fame as an enemy of
dictators and for that he is
being honored. He is unique in
the House of Representatives
for having a special interest
in Latin American affairs.
There -are a few senators, like
Wayne Morse, also of Oregon,
and George Smathers, of
Florida, who have any know
ledge and concern in hemis
pheric affairs, but they 'are
few, indeed.
"Porter's dislike for the
tyrannies in the Dominican
Republic, Cuba, and previous
ly in Venezuela and Colombia,
is genuine. His recent criti
cism of the Ernst report on
the Galindez-Murphy case
was a notable piece of in
vestigation. No doubt his own
career as a congressman is
being helped by what he is
doing in the Latin American
field, but his sincerity cannot
be questioned and there is no
doubt that he is serving the
best interests of the United
States."

Art Said Valuable
Psychiatric Help
Chicago (UPI) Art has
become a valuable psychiatric
help in several Illinois Veter
ans Administration hospitals.
Hospitals at Downey, Dan
ville, and Hines say they have
found painting an aid in treat
ment of mental patients. Doc
tors feel a few hours with the
paint brush gives patients a
means of self-expression, with
consequent release from built
up tensions.,
. The finished work is studied
not only from an artistic point
of view, but also in the search
for what is going on in the
patient's mind.
About ,100 patients have
benefited from the art clinics.
The studios resemble easy-going,
pleasant hobby rooms
where the patient can relax
and draw or paint when he
wishes. The patients are al
lowed to choose their own
subjects, styles of painting,
and colors. Instructors are on
hand to help and encourage
them.
WATER SHORTAGE
Springfield, S.D. (UPI)
Southern State Teachers col
lege has a laundry problem.
The soft water well on the
campus will not pump suf
ficient water to supply enough
for the various buildings and
laundry so the laundry must
be shut down for a few days
at a time. W. W. Ludeman,
college president, said the .in
stitution is considering re
questing funds from the state
emergency fund to drill an
other well.
