Mayor Backs Down; Name Street for Herzl RIO DE JANEIRO, (JTA)— A campaign by the press and the public in this Brazilian capital city has convinced Mayor Alim Pedro to with- draw his veto and sign - a de- cree passed by the City Council to rename one of Rio de Janeiro's streets for Dr. Theodor Herzl. Mayor Pedro, who is of Lebanese descent, said that Dr. Herzl was an "unknown name." Therefore he would not agree to the renaming of the street in his honor. However, continued criticism in the press and a campaign sparked by several members of the City Council, including the sponsor of the original motion to honor the founder of modern Zionism, forced Mayor Pedro's change of heart.
