not only law but good humor and tolerance During the last decade of his life his son Bellamy was his partner and closest associate and mo-t of the incidents in this volume are told Just as he heard

Whitaker The Macmillan Company New York $250 By LANCE ZAVITZ LI ERE is the most comprehen- 1 sive and lucid discussion of Latin-American problems as they relate to the United States that has come from the presses of any publisher in a considerable length of time The author indulges in no romantic discussions of Pan-Americanism He recites facts names dates and places He tells his readers what happened in Argentina in Brazil in Chile and without pulling his punches he explains in simple straightforward English why it happened He explains why Bolivia and Paraguay fought for the "green hell" of the Gran Chaco until the manpower of both nations was almost wiped out When he blames the Standard Oil Company for events in South American countries he advances historical arguments which virtually compel his readers to accept his views But he is equally vigorous in defending the oil interests when the facts as he reviews them indicate that the great corporation should be given a clean bill of health Pungent bits of description form a refreshing background against which the author presents the modem problem of economic penetration by the totalitarian states 1 Spanish Beauty Covers Japanese Sales Talks "Coming suddenly into the Plaza de Armas in Arequipa a 400-year-old oasis town high in the Andean desert 'in Peru you are struck by the beauty of a place more Spanish than anything in Spain Ard the people are more Spanish wrinkled slate skins little tiny hands and feet and deep eyes burning with the sadness that comes out of Extremadura And then when you look under the Portales that surround the square and tear your heart with memories of austere stone in Avila or sunshine splattering the stones of Pamplona you find that every store is Japanese" Wherever possible Mr Whitaker has translated the politics of these Latin-American states into terms of personalities There is the story of Don Pedro Aguirre Cerda the millionaire landowner who heads the radical party of Chile and who became president by grace of Gen Carlos Ibanez who ordered his followers to vote for Aguirre while he himself was detained in prison on a charge of inciting an unsuccessful revolution Mr Whitaker has a pointed word to say about the trade situation with respect to Argentina which recently reduced its imports from the United States by 40 per cent "Nothing short of a mracle ran keep Germany from replacing the United States in 1939 as the second exporter to Argentina after Great Britain" he says An American League Is Tart of Program Out of what he has seen ard heard in South America Mr Whitaker has developed what he regards as the four essentials of American foreign policy: "1 The repulse of any attack upon any American republic as an attack upon our own mainland "2 The rreatior of a board of national strategy "3 The furtherance of trade relations in an effort to unite all the Americas in one great free-trade area The establishment of an American League of Working along these lines he holds the United States can obtain the co-operation of Latin America in creating "a law-abiding community of Failing to pursue such a course the United States may find that the Latin-American stales have become "the economic vassals the colonies or the allies of Germany Italy and But this disaster can occur savs Mr Whitaker in conclusion "only if our people ape the ostrich and our government plays the fool" true It remains one of my favor- ite parts By the dawn of the New we stayed up all night had tiie role letter perfect Right on top of icaine the most aurpnsmR offer
