He paid a $20 fine ay. listeria on the giant United Fruit Co, In negotiations to revise the firm's concession in Costa Rica. Don Pepe wants a 50-50 split In the Costa Rican profits. But, he says, talks are being handled in a way to demonstrate his country's "sense of responsibility" to the West. "We don't want to give the Rus sians any propaganda weapons," Don Pepe said in an interview. He declined to discuss expropria tion of United Fruit Co. land by the Communist-dominated govern ment of Guatemala, but made clear he didn't believe expropria tion was any way to settle problems. Leader of a revolution In 1948 which kicked organized commu nism out of Costa Rica, Figueres has been blasted by the Reds from one side, and Latin-American con servatives from the other. The reason for the dislike from both sides is that he has repeatedly said Latin-American nations must give the United States their fullest support in the cold war. And he has declared many times that 'militarism, fascism and corrup tion" are even bigger threats to Latin-American well-being than communism. Depending on where you sit. Figueres is a New Deal reformer, or an impractical Socialist. Ask him Just what he is politically, and he replies, "I'm a democrat." He says he has studied socialism a good deal, but I don't believe In socialization." Figueres has bid for U.S. support in bringing what he calls "social justice" on an international scale to the southern republics. He doesn't think that foreign capital, nermanentlv settled, is good tor underdeveloped nations, oiten It is a drRin on a small nation, he believes. Aid can come by loans and tem porary Investments, he contends, but the loans should be repaid, the temporary investments liquidated on equitable terms, and tne "per, manent" type of investments re patriated under agreements satis- factory to both sides. "Our peoples," he says, "should not be forced by the weight of the larger economies to sell their work and their natural resources rela tively cheap while they buy the products of industrial countries relatively dear. They should not be exposed to the opening and closing of markets, to controlled prices in time of war and scarcity, and free prices in times of peace and plenty." He believes technical assistance should be continued and expanded because Latin-America can make the most of her resources only through technical knowledge. Costa Rica Itself has no grave political problems. Figueres esti mates the per capita income of his people is from 150 to 200 dollars a year. That looks good in some areas of Latin-America, but to Figueres the national income is appallingly low, "Costa Rican democracy suf fered from social injustice; too many poor and too few rich," says Figueres, "too many people work ing inefficiently; too few savings and too little accumulation of cap ital equipment; too few engineers and too many politicians." The program of U. S. educated Figueres he attended Massacnu- setts Institute of Technology has a wide appeal in Costa Rica, which elected him to the presidency by a big majority and gave him the biggest margin in Congress .any chief executive has had in this country. But his opponents, and some of his friends, fear his big majority in Congress may cause him to push reforms too last. ODD LOT FAMOUS FREEMAN SHOES .
