Similar types of rs from Oregon sold at 7:07 to 7.83 dollars per box. On May 17, in N.Y., 11.245 boxes of Peck*iam pears were sold at an average of 8.20 per box. | The principal novelty of the pear WASHINGTON (UP)—_ Ship-! ments of fruit from Argentina and Chile to the U.S. during the 1955 *season were greater than last year, and prices were higher, according to reports of the Agriculture De- partment. The majority of the fruit reaches the US. from January to June and therefore the season is reach- ing its end. This trade, which is carried out during the period when the US fruit is out of season, al- ways draws a great deal of atten- tion because of the perennial dis- cussion over its possible expansion.

Argentines Celebrate Anniversary of Pres. Peron’s Surge to Power Peron has brought faith in the Argentine people, Ambassador Hipolito Paz says in Embassy ceremony WASHINGTON (UP)— The Ar- gentine colony in this city obsery- ed the ninth anniversary of Presi. dent Peron’s regime with a cele- bration at the Embassy. The ceremony beg: with the playing of the national anthem fol- lowed by an address by Ambassa: dor Hipolito J, Paz. “This is not just another re- membrance of another date — the Ambassador said. We are reunited today, a day which evokes memo- ries of another more important: that day on which President Peron assumed the Presidency.” Continuing the Amt not capable of doing what un- doubtedly and as facts proved it was capable of doing and doing perfectly well, had to be demon- strated. But all this was done be- cause a new leader had appeared supported by his people. On the new figure arose: that of Peron. One idea dominated him: the gran- deur of the nation. And one pas- gentina.” After the speech the march “Los Muchachos Peronistas” (Peronist Youth) was played and the Ambas- ador said: nicl : : 0 . | “But more important than the sador toasted Peron and Argentina.

Since the new copper law was passed in Chile the government has the right to control the sale of copper the possibility that more copper than what is now being sup- plied coming to the U.S. is remote, while the price remains higher than the U.S. quotation of 36 cents a pound.” “As a result everything indic- cates that U.S. supply of copper will continue scarce during the coming months, perhaps until the end of the year, so long as there are no strikes in the copper con- suming industries.” $25 Million Invested by Krupp in Auto Plant SAO PAULO (UP)—According to commercial circles, the powerful Krupp firm of Germany is about to invest 25,000,000 dollars in the con- struction of a plant which will manufacture locomotives and rail- oad material in the state of Sao Paulo. Governor Janio Quadros has al- ready introduced a bill in the state legislature, asking for approval to cede 56,000 square meters of land at Campo Limpo, — where ware- houses of the old coffee depart- ment are located — for use of the factory. According to the plans, the Krupp firm will begin producing Diesel locomotives, although with- out motor reaching a total of 34,500,000 tons, the greatest increase in the ‘last few years. .The publication added that the increase was achieved in spite of the difficult period through which the nations of Latin America pass- ed because of inflation, the drop in prices of their basic export pro- ducts and the continous payments problems. In Venezuela the average in- rease amounted to 12.5, Brazil 17. Mexico 9.5, Argentina 6 and the rest of Latin America registered an increase of 9.7 per cent. The per capita consumption in Venezuela amounted to 432.9 iiieis, 132.4 in Brazil, 280 in Mexico, 450.4 in Argentina and the rest of the countries had an average of 177.9 liters. Pointing out that the absence of facilities is one of the principal factors that limits the development of the countries of Latin Ameri- ca, Petroleum Press Service says that on the average those nations set aside 8 per cent of the budget for highway construction, although Venezucla, with the great benefits obtained from petroleum, is able to set aside 16 per cent of the budget for the development of the highway network, amounts: of the metai from Chile. This statement was contained in the last report of the metals de- partment of the Bache and Co. brokerage firm; but, at the same time they do not think the step is possible while the world price for copper continues to be a few cents above the U.S. quotation of 36 cents per pound. | The firms says that while produc- tion here averages 100.000 tons per month, consumpticn is 128.500 tons, leaving a 28.500 ton deficit. “The largest part of this deficit — it adds — has been covered with the importation of foreign copper, particularly from Chile. During the first three months of 1955, net im- ports of copper (imports minus ex- ports) reached an average of 22.- 500 tons a month. If these net imports are added to the monthly national production, sup- plies amount to 122.500 tons, com- pared to consumption of 128.500 Basketball ace Tours America WASHINGTON (UP)— The In- ternational Education hange Service of the State Department has announced that Tom Gola, La Salle University basketball ace, will arrive in Guatemala on the twenty seventh of this month to begin a tour through the countries of Lat- in America aimed at improving re- lations among the countries in the athletic sphere.
