SENATOR URGES U.S. OF LATIN AMERICA
By OTTO JANSSEN
United Prose Staff Corrospondent.
WASHINGTON, OCTOBER 31 (UP).—A SUGGESTION THAT THE NA- TIONS OF LATIN AMERICA GIVE REALITY TO THE LONG-CHERISHED DREAM OF SIMON BOLIVAR BY FORMING ONE OR TWO GREAT POLI- TICAL UNIONS WAS VOICED BY SENATOR ALEXANDER WILEY OF WISCONSIN IN AN INTERVIEW WITH THE UNITED_PRESS.
Senator Wiley, a member of the Republican Party and a member of the Judiciary Committee, suggested that the United States could encourage such a move with some of the $500,000,000 (M) recently voted by Congress for loans to Latin American coun- tries through the Export-Import Bank.
The senator originally made his proposal during a speech
in the Senate on the Export-Import Bank Bill,
Expanding his views in an interview, Senator Wiley held that the 20 American republiça, acting independently, have little possibility of resisting the economic and political advances of the totalitarian states.
"The fate of the Scandinavian
countries and the smaller states Army Soccer
of the European continent stands as an object lesson for the republics of the New World," the statesman said.
"If the leaders of the other American republics would get together they could build one or two great states, as did the 13 American colonies, that would be and invulnerable militarily, powerful economically and poli- fically.
