JUi Evidence off Communist
Change "in Objectives
Seen
(Continued from Pag One)
I see no evidence that the
Communists have changed
their objective of ultimate
world domination. They now
challenge u s economically
and politically as well as mil
itarily. Of course, we have no
choice but to meet these chal
lenges. Yet we ought never
to allow ourselves to be in
timidated to the extent that
we lose hope of ever inducing
the Communists to cooperate
genuinely with us in ways
of peace. But we must be sure
not to lend ourselves to a
compromise that would recog
nize Russia's domain over her
satellites, and the surrender
of those people to her per
manent control.
We need but to remember
Khrushchev's recent brazen
explanation for the Soviet
Union's intervention during
the Hungarian revolt.
Evidence of Maneuvering
I see growing evidence of
Khrushchev's maneuvering
for position where he would
compromise some issues with
the West in return for the
maintenance of the status quo.
We were smiled into a sum
mit meeting at Geneva with
Bulganin and Khrushchev
and we were then led to be-
Brazil Capital May Move
To New Location by Spring
Rio De Janeiro-IUPD-Presi
dent Juscelino Kubitschek
has vowed that come what
may he will move the capital
of Brazil to its new inland
location by next spring
The government is pushing
construction of the new city
of Brasilia on a crash sched
ule. More than 20,000 men
are working day and night to
get the capital ready for oc
cupancy by the target date
of April 21, 1960.
Here in the present capital,
the House of Deputies has
voted to create a commission
to investigate the project,
which has been called a nest
of waste, corruption, nepo
tism and plain stupidity.
Deputy Elias A d a i m e
charged that friends of the
administration are being let
in on lucrative land buys
which if not crooked are mor
ally dishonest. Land values at
Brasilia have skyrocketed in
the past two and a half years.
Speculators are making as
much as 400 per cent profit
on quick real estate turn
overs. Kubitschek denies that Bra
silia is a bottomless pit into
which he is pouring public
funds. He says he regards the
foundation of the new capital
as the major accomplishment
of his administration.
Too Late to Stop
Even opponents of the pro
ject admit it is too late to
turn back. About $45 million
already has been spent on
construction that was origin
ally estimated to run $100
million. Critics claim the fin
al cost will be three times
that figure.
Brasilia is rising out of the
Goias highland about 70p
miles from the Atlantic
Ocean. Shifting the capital in
land has been discussed in
Brazil since colonial days
when Rio de Janeiro was re
garded as too vulnerable to
raids by pirates and foreign
forces. The move is being car
ried out today to speed settle
ment and development of
Brazil's vast hinterland.
Population Grows
When Kubitschek signed
the decree launching the Bra-f
silia project he noted that 85
per cent of Brazil's 62 million
population still lives along
the coast. He said there are
nearly four million square
miles of undeveloped terri
tory in the interior.
Since ground was broken
for the new capital in 1956,
Brasilia has grown to a pop
ulation of 71,500. Buildings
completed include the presi
dential residence, the big Pal
ace Hotel and 500 low-cost
homes. New roads link the
ctiy with Belo Horizonte, An
apolis, Sao Paulo, Corumba,
Barreiros and Belem. Planes
use a 10,725-foot airport
which is the only one in Bra
zil equipped to accommodate
international jet airliners.
Heavy equipment is now
trucked into Brasilia but
plans call for extending two
railroads to the city. The only
communication services are a
telegraph run by the Com
munnications Ministry, an
Army radio station nd a radio-telephone
connecting the
project headquarters with the
capitol in Rio.
The workers? quarters on
. the outskirts of Brasilia re
semble a 19th century Amer
ican boom town, complete
with wooden sidewalks and
clapboard buildings. A dusty
street is lined with bars that
?-e crowded after a work-day
tii-t averages 12 hours.
Several bawdy houses do a
l-.-isk business, and workers
v-ho shun such places can vis
a sing?e movie house, go
hunting on the nearby prair
ies or fish in the three rivers
- that border the city.
Planners and builders say
Brasilia will be the most sci
entifically laid out city in
the world. Built according to
a prize-winning plan by ar
chitect Lucio Costa, it will
eventually cover about 95
square miles in the form of a
soaring eagle.
There will be 67 miles of
spacious tree-bordered ave
nues, and no slums. Green
parks will dot the city.
The site was chosen by
Donald J. Belcher Associates.
American planning consult
ants, after a study of 8,000
aerial photographs and sur
vey reports. A tract of 3,625
square miles was ceded to
the Federal government by
the state of Goias, and the ter
ritory will become the future
Federal District.
Crab Fishermen,
Firm, in Agreement
Astoria - (UPD - Crab fisher

agreement, it has been announced.
The settlement calls for the

lieve that a new climate for
peace was being created to
discover that we were in for
a period of new betrayals,
new threats and new crises.
We learned during the days
of Munich that you cannot
consign people to designing
dictatorships as their' price
for a temporary peace, and I
was glad to see the President,
in keeping with our tradition,
reiterate in his speeches dur
ing his recent trip the necessi
ty of freedom with peace.
Acclaim Heartening
The acclaim accorded to
the President by the people
of Asia and Europe was as
welcome as it was heartening.
For over and above the trib
ute paid to the person of the
President, it was a significant
affirmation by the millions of
people that they have not
changed their idea of the
United States.
It was recognition of the
contribution of the American
people to the welfare of
other peoples. And I am glad
to see that these people were
not taken in by Communist
propaganda which had cease
lessly bombarded the world
with falsehoods about our
true aims.
For this reason we must
continue to do everything we
can in our foreign assistance
program.
I must be frank to say that
the present administration in
recent years has not done all
it should have done to reach
and hold the minds and the
hearts of many millions of
people desperately hungry for
peace and who are seeking to
adjust themselves to new eco
nomic freedoms and the eter
nal human aspirations for
equality and dignity.
Task Often Forgotten
I hope the President's trip
has reminded some people
here and abroad what our
task is-a task which has often
been forgotten through inac
tion arid complacency and a
reluctance to make sacrifices
necessary to maintain our
strength and freedom.
The Soviets are now stress
ing the need for peaceful co
existence and peaceful com
petition. That is no problem

for the free nations of the
world since this is their norm
al way of like.
But peaceful coexistence to
the Communists means a chal
lenge to survival, with ascen
dancy for one and extinction
for the other, a condition we
could never accept.
What we need is coopera
tion ' for peace cooperation
for peace on a world plan
which would include the Rus
sian people, and in time the
Chinese people of all political
shades. This plan requires in
part, effective disarmament,
subject to international in
spection and control. There
can be no peaceful coopera
tion without disarmament un
der United Nations supervis
ion. But of equal importance
for the success of a plan for
peaceful cooperation is that
all nations join in the devel
opment and use and exchange
of the world's resources for
the benefit of the people
themselves instead of coloni
alism, ancient style or mod
ern. There can be no enduring
peace without this kind of
world economic cooperation.

wants to learn from interested
parties information which
may lead to formulation of

years of research by top scien
tists and the use of intricate
and delicate machines to build
a wheelless car that would
float on air.
Craig W. Vetter, 17, an aver
age American high school stu
dent with average grades,
spent $4, a little spare time
and a conglomeration of junk,
including a chain saw engine,
an old tractor radiator fan
and some plywood, to do the
same thing.
Both Succeeded
The amazing thing is that
both succeeded.
Curtiss-Wright recently put
its car of the future on display
in New York's Rockefeller
Center. It rose on furious jets
of air, swirled leaves around
it and truly was a sight to
behold and a credit to Ameri
can industry.
Young Vetter's infernal ma
chine is a tremendous compli
ment to the ingenuity of
American youth in the young
state of Alaska.
Vetter became interested in
the air car, called a Ground
Effect Machine (GEM), when
he read an article in a science
journal on the possibility of
using such a device in the
army of the future.
Need in Alaska
"I figured there was a real
need for such an invention in
Alaska," Craig told United
Press International. "It would
be near perfect since it can
skim over the lightest of snow
and even ice."
