US Said Favoring
Atomic Power Pool
By J. M. ROBERTS
Associated Press News Analyst
The United States is now re
ported to favor an Allied pool of
atomic power in the North At
lantic Treaty Organization in the
hope of persuading France not to
press development of her own
nuclear striking force on the out
side.
France, on the other hand, is
determined to go ahead with a
national force even if the Polaris
force should be integrated into
NATO.
The United States fears this
will produce division in NATO
and nuclear arms race among its
members.
There is also the impact on the
spirit of Western European Un
ion itself, under which West Ger
man rearmament is integrated in
to NATO under controls, includ
ing a commitment not to produce
nuclear weapons.
A strong display of national
ism, such as France’s is bound to
be felt in a structure which was
designed primarily to submerge
such.
France, on the other hand, in
sists that the nuclear force would
merely put her in the same posi
tion, with regard to the alliance,
which Britain and the United
States already occupy. She in
sists on an equal voice on wheth
er nuclear weapons would be used
in an emergency, and how. She
points out that Britain and U. S.
reservation of the right to sup
ply and command NATO’s nu
clear deterrent in effect leaves
two national forces just a$
France’s would be a third.
A week ago the United States
said reports that she had agreed
to make NATO a nuclear power
were not true or at least pre
mature.
Since then the French General
Assembly has approved the plan
of French President Charles de
Gaulle and President Eisenhower
is reported considering a trip to
Paris during the NATO meeting
in December in support of an
American poll offer.
France, in the last week, like
wise has denied that her policy is
in any way based on fear that
the United States might event-
ualy withdraw from Europe.

(Editor’s note: This begins a
series of articles on South Am
erican countries writtes by stu
dents on the campus represent
ing their respective lands.
The preliminary article on Co
lombia was written by two stu
dents from that country, Alvaro
Restrepo and Rafael Chagin. Res-
trepo is a freshman this year,
and Chagin will graduate in 1962.
The series has been encouraged
by the Pan American Club, where
students from all over South Am-
merica have united for social ac
tivities and services to the col
lege. It is intended that each
South American country be repre
sented in the series.)
By ALVARO RESTREPO
and RAFAEL CHAGIN
Colombia, the nearest South
American country to the United
States is an exciting vacationland
located on the northernmost part
of South America, east of the
Panama Canal and west of the
oil-rich country of Venezuela.
The country is essentially agri
cultural: it has plenty of beauti
ful qnd soil-rich valleys, abun
dant water and a great variety
of climates.
The livestock industry is grow
ing rapidly and it has been esti
mated the 66.2 million acres are
devoted to this purpose. Coffee
is the main agricultural product
but the exploding increase in pop
ulation and the decline in coffee
prices have made the people to
start relying on diversified type
of agriculture.
A great number of facilities are
given by the government to im
prove agriculture in every way.
Each day, the Stockman’s Nation
al Bank in Bogota and through
out the country assist many
farm and ranchers who need cap
ital to sow grain, to reap a har
vest or to buy cattle.
There is plenty of uncultivated
land, and this is most important
part of all; you can get land
without money; all you can fence.
The government will allow you
homestead land on the condition
that you add improvements each
year for twenty years.
The only difficulty for Colom
bians is that they lack the know
how or technical knowledge in all
phases of agriculture. The ex
panding demand for consumer
goods is slightly met because of
primitive methods .of production'
in agriculture. On the other hand,
faces of the economy such as

petroleum, chemials, textiles, fer

struction works encounter the
same situation.
The total population of Colom
bia is 14 million, of what about
59 percent is of mixed European
and Indian stock. 20 per cent
pure European, 5 per cent pure
negro and 2 per cent pure Indian.
Colombia has had a long and
honored tradition of democratic
liberalism smeared a few years
ago by a dictatorship which last
ed only three years.
Under the democratic adminis
tration of President Alberto
Lleras the country is enjoying a
relatively high level of prosper
ity.
