U.S. Pushes IncreasedCooperation
Australian Constitution
Based on American Model
conference to study the problem of
coffee surpluses. Previously it had
said that problems of such basic
products were a matter for the
producing countries to handle.
Economic aid to Latin American
nations appears to be moving
along at an accelerated pace. Ar-
gentina received 329 million in
credits, most of it from the United
States government, to help stabil-
ize its currency and economy.
Supply Credits
These credits, announced Dec.'
29, came long aftersome Argen-
tines had isuggested such an aid
program. This suggestion first
came after the 1955 overthrow of
Juan Peron's dictatorship. The
nation was left in economic dis-
tress.
But if the Argentine aid came
late, it seemed to indicate a much
more aggressive policy of financial
cooperation toward Latin America.
The Argentine credit was seen
here as a symbol of what can be
done when both sides are agreed
on the basic issues, and how they
should be met, both in Washing-
ton and in the borrowing country.
Brazil is reported watching the
A r g e n t i n e plan eagerly. And
Chile's new ambassador to Wash-
ington, Walter Muller, has been
instructed to try for some similar
financial assistance.
Supply and Demand
The law of supply and demand
saved the Unted States from one
prolonged headache in Latin
American affairs. Peru, Mexico,
Bolivia and some other countries
were almost outraged at United
States restrictions imposed Sept.
22 on imports of lead and zinc.
But even as some of the countries
protested, the market began to
improve and at the end of the
year Mexico reportedly got more
money for smaller shipments of
the two metals than it would have
at prices prevailing when Wash-
ington was deploring the need for
its restrictions.
A program for sharper curtail-
ment of oil imports continues to
be an irritant in Venezuela.
As 1959 begins, Washington is
pushing for increased. resources
for the World Bank and for the
International Monetary Fund, co-
operating actively in a conference
here to establish the Latin Ameri-
can Development Bank and talk-
ing of increasing government and
private help for under developed
areas in this hemisphere.

Constitution as a guide. Thus it
was inevitable that in the present
supreme law, there are many
similarities to the Constitution of
the United States.
The Australian Constitution dif-
fers from that of the United States
in one principal way. The found-
ing fathers of the "country down
under" didn't believe that a Bill
of Rights was necessary. However
certain of the guarantees found in
our first ten amendments can also
be detected in Australia's Consti-
tution.
Little Change
Cowen said that "the Constitu-
tion has been largely impervious
to change." Since 1901, the coun-
try has approved only four amend-
ments to the Constitution. How-
ever, many judicial changes have
altered the original document.
The Central Government has in-
creased in power decidely since the
end of World War IL Consequently
there has been a noted weakening
in States Rights. "The Growth of
Central Power has been the result
of judicial interpretation and con-
struction of the Constitution,"
Cowen commented.

DEAN ZELMAN COWEN
... discusses constitution
By DAVID BLOOMGARDEN
The Dean of the University of
Melbourne Law School said yester-
day the Australian Constitution
was fashioned to a certain extent
after its American counterpart.
After being constructed and ap-
proved by the people of Australia,
it was sent to the United Kingdom
where it was passed by the English
Parliament. Thus on January 1,
1901, the Federation of Australia
came into being after existing as
;six separate states within the
framework of the British Com-
monwealth, Dean Zelman Cowen
said.
Similar to U.S. Law
In fashioning the state, the Aus-
tralians looked to the American
