Uruguay Only Country Not Expected To
Ask Eisenhower for Economic Assistance
Editor's note: One South Ameri
man country is not likely to ask
President Eisenhower for U. S.
economic aid on his forthcoming
hemisphere tour. This is Uruguay,
last of the four nations the Presi
dent will visit. In the following
dispatch, the fifth and last of a
series, U. S. Latin American editor
Francis L. McCarthy of UPI
sketches Uruguay and its problems
and outlines the reception Ike is
likely to get in the smallest but
most progressive of South Ameri
can countries.
By FRANCIS L. McCARTHY
Here is a Latin American
paradox:
The hemisphere's smallest
country about the size of
South Dakota has one of its
highest standards of living. It
is a nation where sheep out
number humans in the popu
lation count by 11 to 1.
Such a country is Uruguay
where President Eisenhower
formally closes out his four
nation. 10-day air tour of
South America. He arrives in
Montevideo March 2 and
leaves March 3.
Even more paradoxical: De
spite its diminutiveness, Uru
guay is probably the only one
of the countries Eisenhower
will visit which is not likely
to ask him for direct Ameri
can aid.
Resell Surplus Crops
Uruguay's economy is based
on livestock. But its present
relative economic stability is
attributable to U.S. crop sur
.pluses, principally wheat,
which it has resold and, from
the profits, offset drought
inflicted losses of the past
year.
Not only is Uruguay para
doxical - it is a study in
political contrast.
It is regarded as South
America's first "welfare
state." It pioneered old - age
assistance, the eight - hour
work day and free medical
services. Yet it is one of the
most conservative and stable
of the American republics.
In 1951, the people placed
the executive power in the
hands of a nine-man National
Council of Government to pre
vent the develop m e n t of
dictatorship.
Yet, conversely, Uruguay
has backed the admission of
Red China in the United Na
tions; it is one of only three
Latin American countries
with formal diplomatic rela
tions with Soviet Russia - and
between 10 per cent and 12
per cent of all of its trade
is with Communist countries.
Assured Warm Welcome
There are no outstanding
problems at present between
Uruguay and the United
States. Ike is assured of a
warm welcome. ' If the Trot
skyist element in Uruguay
makes itself heard in opposi
tion to his visit, it will be
because this is a nation famed
for tolerance when it comes
to public expression of politi
cal opinion.
Uruguay's 2.8 million popu
lation is 90 per cent of Euro
pean descent. From the ranks
of these immigrants came
Jose Battle Y Ordonez, one
of the hemisphere's all-time
intellectual greats and the
"father of his country" in
progressive thought, i
Uruguay may want U. S.
financial aid at some time in
the future. But this topic will
not be an important item on
the agenda of Ike's brief state
visit.
Rather, the tiny country's
principal complaint will be
that Eisenhower is devoting
such a brief span of time to
his stay in beautiful Monte
video, city of more than a
million population and hub of
all Uruguayan business ' and
industrial development, 'v
Korean Orphan at McMinnville Gets
Fondest Wish; Hell Attend School
Portland - (UPD - It took a
while, but Ricky Johnson
found out how old he is and
can now have his fondest
wish.
Ricky, a Korean orphan
brought to the United States
under the Harry Holt Baby
lift program, was adopted by
Mr. and Mrs. Norman Johnson
of McMinnville. -
The parents were told that
Ricky was 4J2 years old - too
young for school. .
Boy Grew Sad
But Ricky grew sad as he
watched his brother go off to
school.
So, doctors at the Univer
sity of Oregon Medical School
hospital here began an ex
haustive series of tests to de
termine his actual age. Ricky's
growth patterns seemed to be
of an older boy.
Doctors finally found out
that he is 654 years old - old
enough to go to school.
The tests were difficult be
cause there were not set
growth patterns known for
Korean children.
Dr. Bhim Savara, head of
growth and development re
search at the University of
Oregon Dental School said, in

Octopus Died from Effects
Of a Nervous Breakdown
For any creature so uni
versally recognized as mon
strous and hideous, the octo
pus is exceedingly delicate.
One of them that I knew per
sonally proved that an animal
actually could become so
nervous as to die of fright.
This one had two names.
We called him, "Blob-17" for
he was the seventeenth we
had tried to keep in captivity.
All 16 of his predecessors last
ed only a few days, but in
their dying we learned some
thing of the habits of these
eight - armed blobs of living
flesh called octopi.
We were exceedingly care
ful when we found this one in
the trap. He was resting on
the bottom screen looking
calm and serene. Carefully we
raised the cage. While it was
still under the water we slid
a large tub underneath. Then
we raised the entire outfit.
Never for a single minute was
the octopus out of its natural
elements. Neither was it once
touched bv a human hand.
Reversed Process
We carried tub, cage and
water to the large tank where
we hoped Blob-17 would live
a long and drab existence. Ar
riving at the tank we reversed
the lifting out process, we
sank the tub containing the
octopus into the tank, opened
the door and waited until
Blob-17 decided to move out.
Very slowly, with extreme
deliberation, he crawled from
the cage into the tub and over
its rim into the large tank.
As he crawled, or to be
more correct, "flowed" over
the tub' rim he saw the large
pile of rocks that formed one
side of the big tank. He gatlv
ered his eight arms into a
tight budle and siphoned his
way rapidly to the shelter of
the rock pile.
While en route we could
see him plainly. He was a big
octopus, his body nearly as
large as a football, and some
of his arms were better than
two and a half feet long.
The second day after Blob
17 was installed in the big
tank he ate a fish. There
seemed no reason in the world
why he shouldn't live to a
ripe old age. He was an un
usual attraction; few people
ever had a chance to observe
ones of these creatures close
up. But watching him, at the
same time crowds of people
were also watching, we could
see the waves of color that
flowed over his soft body.
Waves of Color .
Waves of deep purple, pink
and various shades of blue
came and went in rapid suc
cession. One color ran into
another; at the same time the
body would alternately swell
and deflate, like the lungs of
an animal when its owner
takes one deep breath after
another. ;
To the casual observer it
looked rather pretty, but
Blob-17 was actually suffer
ing from a high state of ner
vous excitement. His nervous
system was building up to an
explosion. The "top-blowing"
procedure came before the
end of the second week. Blob
17 died with a full stomach.
He was organically sound and
healthy, but he, like most of
his kind, had a temperament
too "high-strung." By the end
Vienna Famous
For Glass Firms
Vienna - (UPD - This central
European capital has acquir
ed world reputation for its
happy-go-lucky life, its music
and waltzes, its beautiful
women - but also for its glass.
World famous glass firms,
dating back for more than a
century, have produced ex
quisite glass products here.
The Hapsburg emperors,
Balkan kings and members of
the Austrian aristocracy once
were the chief customers.
Diplomats, Arabian oil mag
nates and Western industrial
ists today purchase the prod
ucts of the famous glass firms,
all of them situated on the
swank thoroughfares of down
town Vienna.
The fashion and style of
glassware may have changed
with the times, but the first
class craftsmanship has re
mained a "must" for Vienna
glasswares. The firms proud
ly refuse to deal with mass
products; they specialize in
individual glassware. Their
creattions are works of art
and produced only once and
for one customer only.
