EDITORIAL THANKSGIVING DAY The United States celebrates today a holiday of deep spiritual significance, which has its roots in the very history of the country. Thanksgiving Day represents for the people of the United States | a grandiose date of great moral significance. Today | the most powerful Nation on earth stops the rhythm | of its usual activities to thank God for the blessings | received. Officially, the State interprets the popular | feeling, and respects and exalts this religious motive of gratitude. When the country lives, as at this moment, difficult times because of the serious in-| ternational crisis, Thanksgiving Day assumes} greater intensity, which is fully explained in the) fervent desire of a peaceful people who approaches | ‘God, asking for his benediction, and to express to} Him their gratitude for His innumerable blessings. This eminently spiritual celebration lends) prestige to the people of the United States, a celebra-| tion which has in the church and in the home the) best and most beautiful manifestations. The holiday coincides today with the arrival in the United States of several planes bringing refugees from Hungary, with people from that European country where they are suffering today violent perse- cution from materialism functioning as a Govern- ment. Those families land in the United States when celebration of Thanksgiving Day is taking place, and those human beings, who have fled from the commu- nist terror, will certainly understand immediately the significance of justice of that holiday of Thanks to God by a people who invoke Him to pay Him| humble tribute of gratitude and to implore for His} blessings in the future. The United States has much to thank God for, having attained the immense moral and material progress this country enjoys. Confronting the spectacle of political persecutions in other countries, the unleashing of passions and violences, its people necessarily have to realize the goodness of their life, which develops within norms of peace,*not the one imposed by force, but the one which blossoms as the logical consequence of justice, of democratic order, of administrative honesty and of political freedom, all within an adequate balance of social and economic well-being. THE AMERICAS DAILY offers respectful homage to God in this great day, humbly asking Him, as everybody in the United States, for His magnificent kindness of His necessary blessings.

S.A. It is the northernmost part of the Re= public of México, has a coastal line of 1,860 miles, is 187 miles wide at its widest part, and looks like a finger jutting out into th Pacific Ocean, The Pacific bounds it on the west and south, the Gulf of California, also called “Sea of Cor- tés” or “Vermillion Sea,” for the bright red sunsets reflected in these waters, bathes its eastern shores, The Colorado River runs along a short section of the morth- eastern boundary, below Yuma, Arizona, and flows into the Gulf of California. Baja California is divided into two parts: the north is a State and uses Pacific Standard time: the south is a Territory and follows Central Standard time. The line of division is just about in the middle of the peninsula. At the very southern part of the Territory, near the finger’s tip, is the line of the Tropic of Cancer. The north- admitted not long ago to the Unit- | ed States of México. | The capital of this comparatively | new state is Ensenada, 65 miles be- low Tijuana, on the International Border. This is a magnificent city, overlooking Todos los Santos Bay. There is an active fishing industry in the city, as well as many other industries. Ensenada has all the modern conveniences, combined with a charming old-world atmo- sphere. It is an ideal vacation spot, because of its beautiful beaches and fishing posibilities. There are many enchanting spots in the neighborhood of Ensenada, easily reached- by car over very good roads. Among these are many pic- turesque and healthful mineral | springs. | Mexicali, located in the north- east of Baja’ California, is the se- cond most important city in the north. Its name was compounded | from México and California. It is | on the border with the United States, across from Calexico, whose | name was compounded from Cali- | fornia and México. The gigantic | Mexicali Valley is part of the Co-| lorado River delta, and of the great Salton sink. This is a great cotton- growing region. Mexicali is a mod- ern, attractive city, with hospitals, theatres, smart shops, good hotels, ete. About 45 miles east of Mexi- cali, is where the Colorado river cuts across Baja California and joins the Gulf of California. Tijuana is a border city, much visited by Americans. It is mainly a commercial center, but offers | many attractions, such as_bull-| fights, jai alai, and excellent night | clubs. It has excellent stores, good | hotels and restaurants. About three miles outside of Tijuana is Agua Calienté, whith is the real attrac- tion in the northwest corner of México. It is a mineral springs | resort, with fine hotels, race track, | golf club, all sports and convenien- | ces, Hot Springs is another mineral | bath resort, a few miles from Ti- juana. The water is fine for the | skin. Jacumba, between Tijuana | and Mexicali, on a good highway, is an excellent bathing place with all services; sulphur water is good for treating rheumatism, and Cerro Blanco, 18 miles east of Rocky Point, has alkaline springs, good for treatment of stomach and liver | ailments. San Borja, 30 miles east | of Rocky Point, has sulphurous wa- | ter, good for the skin, and Aguaji- to, in the Municipality of Mulegé, in the Territory, has hot sulphur springs, for skin and blood ail-| ments. Other towns with sulphur, medicinal springs are: Punta Ban- da, on the outskirts of Ensenada; La Grulla, in the Municipality of Ensenada; Real del Castillo, a very short distance from Ensenada, Va- He de la Trinidad, 24 miles south- east of El Alamo and not far from Ensenada; Las Huertas, 30 miles south of Ensenada; Misién Vieja, a little over one mile from San Mi- guel, in the Municipality of Ense- nada, and Escalerillas, southeast of Ensenada and near El Alamo, all have very healtful sulphur spring.

UNITED NATIONS, Noy. 21 — (UP)— Twenty Latin American nations have given their strong sup- port to the resolution submitted to the United Nations by the Cu- ban delegate, Dr. Emilio Nufiez Portuondo, which “requests the Government of the Soviet Union and the Hungarian authorities to take immediate cease deportations of Hungarian citizens, and “to return immediate- ly to their homes those who have been taken by force outside the territory of Hungary.” Venezuelan Foreign Minister José Loreto Arismendi, in support- ing the Cuban proposition, declar- ed: “The specific case to which this proposition refers, the deportation to the Soviet Union of great mas- ses of Hungarians, cannot be look- ed upon with indiference by this organization, which, for that rea- son, has to use all the means at her disposal, not only to put a stop to such a clear attempt agaist. the sovereignty of the Hungarian State | by the Soviet State, but to retura those masses to their fatherland where they have a right to live. |For that reason, the Venezuelan delegation, with the same em-| phasys it has condemned the So- viet intervention in Hungary, sup- | ports the proposition, in the be-| lief that the essential aim is to} make more effective the guaran- tees to the member states against attempts to their political indepen- dence and territorial integrity~in the part of any foreign state. “Venezuela —- he added — has | always been caréful to defend with the greatest zeal the principle of non-intervention. And this is the case here, because the aim of this Assembly is have other that to have | that principle respected for the be- \nefit of the Hungarian people. In Hungary, in effect, regular troops of a foreign State are openly in- measures” to| N. Assembly tervening against the political in- dependence of that nation. ..The representative of the Soviet Union does not deny that fact, although he pretends to excuse it when he says’ the Kadar Governemtn ap- pealed to the Soviet Union for aid to repel the fascist forces and re- store order and normalcy in — the country.’ If this supposed explana- tion of the Soviet Government is studied, it ‘results that the facts with which it tries to support it are, on the contrary, reasons that destroy it.” Arismendi, at the end of his talk, announced that the Presi- dent of Venezuela, “as a demons- tration of sympathy and support for the heroic Hungarian people, has ordered that «steps be taken to receive in Venezuela a good number of refugees.” Dr. Victor Andrés Belaunde, of Pert, praised the propostion of Nufiez Portuondo, and referred with indignation to the “victims of Soviet force, which the agressor ae- cuses of fascism.” “The Soviet Union, in order to continue the use of that term, has even applied it to Tito and those who with him defend the so-called national communism.” Admiral Anibal Olivieri, of Ar- gentina, said that Hungary, “the noble and heroic victim continues. to be alone in this drama, certain- ly Dantesc, to which her love of freedom and a sense of dignity in life carried her.” Dr. Hernando Nayia Barén, of Colombia, said: “Considering that the Cuban pro- position faithfully interprets the vehement desire of the people and ° constitutes a wise, opportune and effective voice to prevent greater conflicts and more accute crisés, it merits the warm aplause and sup- port of the great majority of the mations represented in this As sembly.” U.S. Increases Again Sugar Quota WASHINGTON, Nov. 21—(UP) The Deparment of Agriculture in- | creased by 100,000 tons the com- mercialization 1956 sugar quota, raising it to 8,875,000 tons.

According to the Sugar Law, the Department is empowered to re- gulate the commercialization in ar- der to stabilize the supply and pri- ces. ; The Department declared that several recent events made the in- crease of the commercialization quota convenient, mentioning the port workers strike, greater de- mands of holds and the increase in maritime freight rates, the higher sugar prices in the world markets and the fact that the future pri- ces of the new North-American crop rose to the level of the im- mediate delivery quotations. “It seems convenient — the De- partment said — to increase the quotas with the purpose of having a greater feedom to confront the market immediate needs. The new quotas for the year are: United States Beet Sugar, 1,927,333 tons; United States Cane Sugar, 593,059; Hawaii, 1.075.640; Puerto Rico, 1, 124,718; Virgin Islands, 12,000; Phillipines, 980,000; Cuba, Latin American News in Brief TROOPS FOR UN RIO DE JANEIRO—(UP)— Aft- er a session which lasted all night, the Chamber of Dpputies approved by 145 votes against 91, to send Brazilian troops to form part of the United Nations Forces.
