Samuel Shapiro, former pro- fessor of history at Michigan State University at Oakland, who also was a Fulbright pro- fessor in Argentina, in "In- visible Latin America," pub- lished by Beacon Press, urges the U. S. to recognize Latin American independence and to "deal with Latin nations on the basis of equality." Declaring that "the decade of dollar diplomacy, of the Monroe Doctrine and the Big Stick, the years when an American Secre- tary of State could behave to- ward Latin American sheep as a shepherd—or a wolf—are over," Dr. Shapiro offers 17 sugges- tions for action by our Govern- ment in dealing with Latin American situations. He proposes that "we ought to stop talking about free trade and begin practicing it." He urges that we arrive "at reason- able prices for Latin American commodity exports." Dr. Shapiro declares that "we need better diplomatic representatives in Latin America—in President Ken- nedy's words, 'the best men available.' " He endorses Milton Eisen- hower's 1958 slogan of "a hand- shake for dictators and an abrazzo for democratically elect- ed rulers," and declares "it is immoral to supply Latin dicta- tors with United States tanks, machine guns, and training mis- sions so that they can 'fight communism.' " He is as critical of the Kennedy administration in dealing with Castro as he is of the preceding one. Dr. Shapiro urges U. S. aid in Latin American educational ef- forts as well as their economic programs and the channeling of aid as much as possible to rural areas. He encourages support of agrarian reform programs, of giving high priority to massive birth control campaigns. He ad- vises the slowing down of the flight of private capital from Latin America. He also urges encourage- ment for a Latin American version of the Common Mar- ket, that U. S. aid should be channeled through UN and OAS. Latin American independence, he declares, should be recog- nized and Latin nations should be dealt with on the basis of real equality. Soine form of socialism must be recognized in that area, he states. He condemns American advertising tactics in dealing with Latin America and states that changes must be effected in U. S. foreign policy. JWV Activities DETROIT POST 135 will meet 8:30 p.m. Monday at the JWV Memorial Home, 4095 W. Davison. A resolution rescind- ing the by-laws of the past will be discussed.
