Hio Do Janeiro. Brazil
Twelve hundred miles north
of Rio's mosaic streets and
the white beaches and luxury
hotels of the C o p a c a bana,
Severino Luiz da Silva cuts
sugar cane nine months of the
year for less than 25 cents a , to come to Brazil. Luiz da S'A-
day.
Mis home is in the village
of Portarice, 30 miles from
Recife, in Brazil's perennially
p o v e r t y-stricken northeast
where communism has its
strongest hold.
Luis da Silva is one of
nearly 20 million landless
"campesinos" in Brazil s
northeast who are being goad
ed by extreme nationalist and
left-wing politicians into the
violence which almost daily
hits the sugar plantations and
the cattle ranches.
If full-scale revolution Is
w will be among its reasons.
and perhaps give Moscow its
greatest prize.
Destiny Not Determined
Brazil is a nation rushing
headlong toward a destiny
which still must be deter
mined. Its politicians range
from the extreme right to le
extreme left. It has the pov
erty of the northeast and it
has the city of Sao Paulo in
the south where a booming
industry has built a standard
of living that has improved
constantly despite Brazil's ap
palling inflation almost SO
per cent last year alone.
It has Its new inland capi
tal of Brasilia, designed to be
the world's most modern but
its completion now slowed by
tightened credits.
And it has Rio where a SO
per cent government-imposed
salary increase and a "13th
month" of extra pay has en
abled construction worker
Jose Silva to buy new work
shoes, carry beans, meat and
rice in his lunch pail and
drink the white and powerful
"leite da onca."
Brazil this year is scheduled
to receive $410 million from
the United States to help bol
ster its failing credits and to
forward the Alliance for Prog
res program of new schools,
housing and water supplies
and of aid to agriculture and
small industry.
A new three-year program
looks forward to slashing
Brazil's inflation rate to 10
per cent by 1965.
Semblance of Stability
Under President Joao Gou
lart Brazil has achieved a
semblance of government sta
bility after, the uncertainty
and chaos verging on civil war
which followed the resigna
tion of President Janio Qua
dros in August, 1961.
By the end of the century,
Brazil, South America's most
industrialized and populous
nation with 70 million inhabi
tants, could be among the
world's major powers.
But on the debit side are
her national debt of more
than $2 billion and another
$900 million deficit in her
budget this year.
Against her also are the
promises made but repeatedly
broken to halt inflation, sta
bilize the cruzcro and to insti
tute land reform.
A mounting nationalism is
anti-Yankee, inflicts severe
restrictions on foreign invest
ments and demands national
ization of industry. To meet
her goals, Brazil needs $500
million this year in private
and public investments.
U. S. Investors Frightened
But in 1962, frightened U.S.
investors, with more than a
billion dollars already tied up
in Brazil, increased that figure
by only $8 million. In 1960, it
had been $28 million.
And, finally there is In
creasing uncertainty as to the
direction Brazil's politicians
are leading her.
Luis Da Silva is caught in
the vise of a social revolution
in which lines are tightly
drawn.
On the one side are the pol
iticians and union organizers
who urge him to violence if
necessary to obtain his rights.
On the other are the big
plantation owners who tradi
tionally have held him in a
peonage virtually amounting
to slavery and who today
plead declining sugnr prices
to resist a minimum wage of
$1 per day.

Between the two there Is no
meeting at minds and the
threat of revolution mounts.
In the nine stales which
compose Brazil's poverty,
stricken northeast, the United
States has pledged aid under
the Alliance for Progress to
tailing more than $134 mil
lion.
In Pcrnambuco, it includes
a housing project outside Re
cifc, school building projects,
colonization to settle the peo
ple on their own land, water
supplies and an artificial rub
ber plant to consume alcohol
from the sugar refineries. But
the United States gets little
credit.
Luis Da Silva, for example,
never heard of it.
