As Common Problem in South America
Mltor'a note: What kind of a
inception will President Eisenhow
er get on his forthcominc tour of
South America? What problems will
he discuss with hemisphere neigh
bors? What sort of persons will he
meet? Here, in the first of a series
f dispatches. UPI's U. S. Latin
American editor, surveys the peo
ples and problems Eisenhower will
meet next week.
Br FRANCIS L. MCCARTHY
A deeper understanding
nd economic aid.
In brief, these will be the
themes, with variations, of
President Eisenhower's talks
with the heads of Argentina,
Brazil, Chile and Uruguay, the
four South American coun
tries he is to visit soon.
The Eisenhower timetable:
Leaves Washington, Feb. 22;
arrives Brazil, Feb. 23, leaves
Brazil, Feb. 26; arrives Ar
gentina, Feb. 26, leaves Ar
gentina, Feb. 29; arrives Chile,
Feb. 29, leaves Chile, March
2; arrives Uruguay, March 2,
leaves Uruguay, March 3, ar
rives Puerto Rico, March 3,
enroute to Washington.
In 10 days President Eisen
hower will have visited an
area roughly the size of the
United States, but with half
as many people.
Hay Common Problem
All four countries have a
common problem - galloping
inflation. All are in sore need
of more extensive United
States economic aid.
But the principal theme of
Eisenhower's talks with the
heads of the nations he visits
will be the thorny subject of
North American understand
ing of South American prob
lems. For many years, a common
complaint of hemisphere na
tions has been that the Anglo
Saxon mind does not grasp
fully the importance of continent-wide
amity and support
based on mutual understand
ing and respect. The cry has i
been that the United States I
has concentrated its attention I
on Old World problems while
ignoring a neighborly New
World beset by poverty.
An example of this feeling
is the recent demand of Cu
ban Prime Minister Fidel Cas
tro, voiced at a Buenos Aires
meeting of continental states
men, for 30 billions of dollars
of U. S. aid to the nations of
Latin American to help them
achieve economic indepen
dence. The sum suggested rep
resents a U. S. grant of about
$200 to every man, woman
and child in the Western
Hemisphere, outside of the
United States and Canada.
Fortunately, however, Pres
ident Eisenhower will find in
the statesmen with whom he
talks a more realistic appre
ciation of United States eco
nomic possibilities in the field
of hemispheric aid and as
sistance. These men are Presidents
Arturo Frondizi of Argentina,
Jorge Alessandri of Chile, Ju
scelino Kubitschek of Brazil
and Uruguayan Senator Be
nito Nardone, who will be
head of the National Council
of Government there at that
time.
The Uruguayan Council
presidency currently held by I
Martin R. Echegoyen will
change on March 1, the day
before President Eisenhower's
scheduled arrival in Montevi
deo. The presidency is rotated
each year among the first four
council membe j elected.
In at least three of the four
countries he visits Brazil,
Chile and Argentina - the
President's popular reception
will be influenced by the par
ty line laid out from Moscow.
These three nations have
large local Communist par
ties whose political thinking
on international affairs is
guided from the Kremlin.

Tests You Can Mak
To See If Fish It Fresh
Freshness in seafood is not
so much a requirement as it
is a necessity. There are some
sea creatures that can, under
certain conditions, become
actually poisonous if they die
too long before they are cook
ed for human food.
The lobster, crawfish and
some of their relatives deter
iorate very rapidly after
death; it is a wise housewife
who can definitely tell just
when these foods are safely
fresh. Recently, the fishermen
who make their living catch
ing and selling lobsters per
fected a method of packing
them alive, with a cushion of
seaweed and cracked ice. By
this arrangement the animals
reached the consumer alive
and in a semi-active state
even after a long trip.
If you see a lobster or a
crawfish move, you know for
sure the creature is alive and
therefore fresh. But what, you
may ask, about those that are
brought to the table already
cooked? Even here there is a
pretty accurate way to deter
mine the freshness. If it has
an odor like ammonia, the
chances are pretty good that
the poor critter died some
time before he was plunged
into hot water.
Check the Eyes
The appearance of the eyes
is another clue. Usually, deep
set eyes indicate the fish has
been out of its natural ele-

rtient for some little time.
Some tfolks say, too, that the
eyes of a fish long dead have
a pronounced "glassy" stare
even more so than the natur
ally fishy eye of all fish.
The bsst method, however,
would seem to be the "finger
test." Press the fish's body
firmly with the tip of one
finger and watch how rapidly
the depression returns to nor
mal when the pressure of the
finger is reunoved. The quick
er this happens the fresher
the fish, provided, of course,
the fish is not frozen so hard
the finger leaves no depres
sion. Seafood is a beneficial and
healthful food, probably very
necessary to ( t he continued
well-being of all of us. Seafood
contains elements not found
in vegetables or meat and con
tributes a large share of vita
mins and minerals that go to
make up a well-balanced diet.
However, the old belief that
fish is brain food is more su
perstition than fact.
Idea Has Persisted
If this were troie, the por
poise, sea lion, sea gull and
pelican, should become intel
lectual giants. We certainly
wouldn't want any auch thing
to happen; if would deal our
human ego such a wallop we
would never. get over it.
But nevertheless the brain
food idea in connection with
eating fish has persisted, and
there are a great many people
who still believe in the idea.
Generous amounts of seafood-eaten
fresh, either cook
ed or raw-will never tate the
place of a high school educa
tion; but if it is fresh it. will
contribute a delightful taste
thrill and lend its bid to . the
healthful building of your
body.

Warned on 'Peace'
NO HEART-BREAKER

Jesse H. Hutchens
of the El Cajon Valley Union

to spare youngsters who
couldn't afford to buy val

would rather prohibit hearts

said.
Washington-(UPD-The House
communittee on Un-American
activities has warned govern
ment policy makers and U.S.
citizens not to be deceived by
Communist use of the word
"peace."
The committee indirectly
warned President Eisenhower
of the dangers involved in an
exchange of visits with Soviet
Premier Nikita S. Khru
shchev. The President and
party will visit Russia June
10-19.
Peace, or peaceful coexist
ence to free peoples means
the absence of conflict, but to
the Communist, the commit
tee warned, it means elimina
tion of conflict because of the
"domination of the world by
Communism."
Published in Report
The warning was published
in the committee's annual re
port for 1959.
It said "the security of this
nation depends in large meas
ure upon the degree to which
the American public, its elect
ed officials, and policymak
ers know how to interpret
Communist statements."
"If they take the words of
the Communists at face
value," it said, "the results
could be disastrous."
It said Khrushchev's visit
to the United States last year
"succeeded in influencing a
significant number of Ameri
cans to believe that he can be
trusted when he speaks of his
desire for peaceful coexistence."
Also that "he was telling
the truth, for example, when
he explained that by his
threat to 'bury' the United
States he merely meant that
Communism would succeed
capitalism . . ."
The visit, the committee
said, was looked upon by
Communists as a "tremendous
victory" for them which per
mits them to have a greater
hand in forcing "further
shifts" in U.S. foreign policy,

New York -(UPD- The admin
istration's drive to balance
the budget has finally revers
ed the uptrend in interest
rates, says Prentice-Hall.
Easing money pressure,
mainly reflecting reduced fed
eral needs for funds, has led
to a rise in bond prices, the
firm pointed out in its weekly
report on business. '
The government's "balance-the-budget'"
philosophy, says
Prentice-Hall, has also meant
a continued squeeze on de
fense spending.
"The current Washington
debate on missiles and other
defense issues seems to be vir
tually a verbatim replica of
the similar squabble one year
ago. " That's a disheartening
sign of how slow U.S. prog
ress on missiles has been dur
ing that period."
Hornblower & Weeks notes
American Insurance Co.
should - participate relatively
well in the expected industry
upturn. Its S1.30 dividend
yields 5 per cent, the firm
points out.
Walter G. Bernthal of Filor,
Bullard & Smyth offers the
following opinion; "Addition
al work must be done to build
up a base from which a more
permanent rally can take
place. I think this will take
another week or so, and thus
at the moment would consid
er the market a trading affair.
I would use strength to sell
stocks, and buy them during
periods of weakness."
