However, it had already received its name ‘not to violate the civil laws and not to do any) New Barcelona in 1637, when harm to their fellow men, to discharge the With such mentality there is no chance for meditating and acting in accordance with other duties of the individual, generous, within moral, possibilities, with those in need of moral, cultural or material encouragement. such as the one of being intellectual and economic Those who are not capable of giving aid to their fellow men, without any materialist interest, are not discharging in full the obligations inherent to their condition of members of a civilized society. Nor living up to’ those obligations are those who are indifferent to the cultural aspiration of those who, for lack of economic means or opportunities, cannot fulfill them by themselves. Even without reachin —the highest extreme of nobleness—one can and should do always something to help others, to g the degree of philantropy generously transmit knowledge to those urgently needing it, to offer opportune moral support to those needing it, to give reasonable economic aid to the persons needing it. To win the good will and appreciation of his fellow men, the individual has, necessarily, to do something more than respect civil laws and do not harm anyone. Within the mechanism of society, each one of its members has to be unselfish to certain degree, must feel the satisfaction of being useful, ia other words, it is necessary to be human. : Very regrettable is to see cases of persons with enough economic resources, with intellectual capabil- ities, and including good they leave this world do the community, because friendship with those surrounding them, nor have moral conduct, who, when not leave any vaccum in they have not cultivated they ever done a favor for anyone. Those persons, in spite of their economic resources and intelelctual capabilities, deprive themselves of the moral satisfac- tion, very deep indeed, of having contributed, even jin a small scale, to alleviate suffering, to encourage human aspirations, to be of some generous usefulness to their fellow men. Chilean Foreign Minister in Formosa TAIPEI, April 8 (UP)—Chilean Foreign Minister Osvaldo Sante /Marie arrived here today for a two, day state visit that will include a meeting with Generalissimo Chiang KaiShek. * ‘The 56-year-old Chilean leader is the highest ranking South Ameri ay official ever to visit the Repub ic of China — either on the »Chinese mainland or since the Government moved to Formosa. in 1949.

Sainte-Marie’s group, which in- cludes his wife, is scheduled to jeave for Hongkong Wednesday morning. Juan de Urpin founded a town at the foot of Cerro Santo, a near- by hill. Before this, Cristébal Co- bos founded the town of San Cris- tébal de los Cumanagotos, which was transferred by Juan de Haro in 1591 to a site close to present day Barcelona. Modern Barcelona is Iocated a little over two miles from the sea, at an altitute of 45 feet above sea level. The Neveri River flows through the city, and is navigable by small craft. Barcelona has a population estimated at 50,000, and the climate is hot. Today Barcelo- na, as well as the surrounding ter- ritory and towns, constitute one of the most important oil produc- ing centers of the world. Several U. S. and British companies have concessions which they are success- fully exploiting in nearby El Ti- gre and San Tomé. Barcelona was made famous in Venezukelan history by several im- portant actions which took place in the city and the surrounding territory during the war of Inde- pendence, In 1817, in the Recoletos Convent, which had been turned into a fortress, a handful of Ve- nezuelan patriots under the com- mand of General Pedro Maria Freites, resisted to the death the violent attacks of Spanish troops. The rupnis of this. convent have been converted into a National Monument, and can be inspected by visitors. Barcelona is connected with Ca- racas and other important cities ofthe country by excellent hig- ways. The higway from Car- acas, which is about 350 miles long, passes through San Juan de los Mo- tros and El Sombrero, interesting and important towns of colonial times. This beautiful capital of Anzoategui State has also good air communication with the rest of the nation and has one of the finest airports in the country. There is also an excellent highway. con- necting Barcelona with Ciudad Bo- livar, located on the Orinoco River. San Fernando de Apure, capital of Apure State, was founded in 1789 by Fray Buenaventura de Benaocaz, on the right bank of the Apure River. The town was burned by the patriots during the war of Independence, and later, in 1856, was destroyed again during a civil war. The inhabitants, however, al- ways rebuilt it as quickly as pos- sible, making it even better than before. The geographical position of San Fernando de Apure has made it one of the most important commercial centers of the Vene- zuelan Plains (Llanos). Cattle rais- ing is the main source of income of the region, as well as the one in which most of the inhabitants of San Fernando are engaged. San Fernando de Apure is sur- rounded by immense flatlands covered with abundant grass, and the wide majestic river winding its way through these green plains tends a touch of special beauty to the landscape surrounding the ci- ty. San Fernando is located about 250 feet above sea level, the aver- age temperature is about 72 de- grees Fahrenheit, and the popu- lation is estimated in about 25,000. Spanish Version Page 3 Any?

They originally came from that country, settling near here in the twenties under special arrange- ments with the Government of President Alvaro Obregén. The colony has prospered and its population multiplied. Sect members attribute their exodus to dissatistaction with social se- curity requirements. They said the Federal Government is de- manding $160,000 in social security payments. “We- nave our own clinics, schools, temples and business hou- ses as part of this colony,” a spokes man said, “and we don’t need any of the benefits offered by the So- cial Security System.” The agreement with the Obregén.

ARGENTINA OUTLAWS COMMUNIST PARTY BUENOS AIRES (UP)— Feder- al District electoral judge Amilcar Cardoso cancelled legal recogni- tion of the Communist Party. Cardoso acted on a petition sub- mitted to the Electoral court by Manuel Gomez Carrillo, Jr., re- questing that recognition be with- drawn because the present political party statute requires that active political parties be of a “demo- eratic character.” This is the second time the Com- munist Party’s bid for legal recog- nition under the new political par- ty statue has been rejected by a national electoral judge. Former judge Luis Botet refus- ed legal recognition for the party fast November on the grounds that it acted under “international or- ders.” This ruling was reversed by Fe- deral District Court of Appeals on ee Forty Killed in Brazilian Plane Crash BAGE, Brazil, April 8 (UP)— Forty persons were killed when a Brazilian airliner crashed near this provincial town yesterday.

Be- cause so much of California’s history is linked to the civilization of Latin America, I am sure that all Californians, including our great number of citizens of Latin American descent, will provide them with a hospitable and warm reception.” Western Hemisphere Problems to be Studied by Prominent Committee WASHINGTON, April 8 (UP)— The National Planning Association will undertake a three year study of the Western Hemisphere eco- nomic problems, the cost to be paid with private enterprises funds, The study will be made by’ an Inter American Committee inte- grated by representatives of in- dustry, agriculture and live stock breeding, labor and professionals.

Plaza said in turn that the great er part of the analysis made on the Western Hemisphere Economic Problems has been for a short term and has never considered the over- all picture. He added that this is the first time a study, as this one of the Planning Association, will be undertaken, The ex-President of Ecuador pointed out that, different than other studies made by the Organiza- tion of American States, this one’s cost will be paid, exclusively by private enterprises, and opined that the attempts made, up to now, to solve the Latin American economic problems, have depended, excessi- vely, on the governments.
