—a— iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii mu mi mi TN:16511 Date: 11/21/2017 1:47:31 PM Communists Plan Brazilian Aid Try RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil, (/P>— World Communist leaders recently decided to offer Soviet aid to Brazil to make it a spearhead of £atin American hostility to the United States, a high government source said yesterday. ^ The official said the Brazilian Foreign Office has prepared a secret report showing the plan was outlined at the November meeting of Communist leaders in Moscow. The source says the report shows the Foreign Office has proof- minutes of meetings held in Mos cow- that a new tactic was adopted against the West whereby Brazil would serve as a spearhead for a hostile policy against the United States. This was interpreted as meaning the Soviet Union would launch a ^campaign to create political mis understandings between the United States and Latin American coun tries, with offers of aid as the opening wedge. Dr. Bridges Gives \r In Illinois Papei Dr. C. H. Bridges, associate pro fessor of veterinary pathology, Texas A. and M. College, present ed a paper at the annual seminar <of the American College of Veter inary Pathologists at Northwest ern University, Evanston, Illinois, •recently. '* The seminar reviewed the prob lem cases that were presented to certified Veterinary Pathologists of the U. S. during the past year. He also attended the conference for Research in Animal Diseases which was held concurrently with the seminar. Richardson Gets Agronomy Award Richard Richardson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Richardson of Mexia, has been chosen to receive the John I. Bowling Awai-d of $600. Richardson is a junior student in agronomy, married and resides at 203-A Fairview, College Station. He has made an outstanding rec ord at A&M in agronomy. He is “farming” his way through col lege by operating the family’s home •farm near Mexia, where he is de veloping a registered Hereford herd and growing feed for his cattle. Latin American Communists helped draw up the plan, said the government official who disclosed the report. The Russians have offered oil equipment and other technical as sistance to Brazil and are seek ing to renew cultural and diplo matic relations, which were sev ered in 1947. Brazil has seemed to be reluctant to respond to the Soviet overtures. Foreign Minister Jose Carlos de Macedo Soares has said Presi dent Juscelino Kubitschek will lay down Brazil’s policy on relations with Russia within the next few weeks. The Foreign Office docu ment may be a large factor in Kubitschek’s decision. Argentina recently announced plans to send a trade mission to the Soviet Union and the satellite countries. Argentine credits have been building up in the Communist countries because she has been sell ing more than she has been buying there. > Army Eases Rules On Reserve Plan Local commanders of Army Re serve units have been advised that recruiting restrictions have been eased, permitting the enlist ment of persons with no prior ser vice time.

Is it full of feeble lifers and drooping drummers? Well, this musical slowdown may be traceable to lack of Luckies. Better give your band a break—and make it a Lucky one! A Lucky, you see, is a light smoke—the right smoke for everyone. It’s all cigarette—all naturally light, wonderfully good-tasting tobacco. And Luckies’ fine to bacco is toasted to taste even better. Now then, what’s a marching band that never gets a Lucky break? Why, it’s a Sore Corps! (Wasn’t that cymbal?) STUCK FOR DOUGH? START STICKLING! MAKE $23 We’ll pay $25 for every Stickler we print—and for hundreds more that never get used! So start Stickling—they’re so easy you can think of dozens in seconds! Sticklers are simple riddles with two-word rhyming answers. Both words must Lav the same number of syllables. (Don’t do drawings.)
