Spa is a picturesquely lo-
cated town in eastern Bel-
gium famed for its mineral
springs and baths. The name
“spa” has become synonym-
ous with health resorts
which have mineral baths,
The World Almanac notes.
Spa was the most fashiona-
ble health resort in Europe
during the 1700s.
WASHINGTON (NEA)
With the world taking fright over its capacity to sustain
itself through vital resources, it’s a pleasure to report on the
determined opening up of Brazil, one of its great yet hitherto
largely untapped storehouses.
The story has many facets. This huge Latin land, a bit
bigger than the United States, has immense stocks of iron
ore, barely touched. It is presumed to have other extensive
mineral reserves, unknown still as to kind and real size.
Manufacturing is growing apace. A new, brief Brookings
Institution report devoted fundamentally to the “trading
greats,” meaning North America, Europe and Japan, made
passing reference to Brazil as an example of a nation grow-
ing through the building of its exports.
To speed its development, Brazilians are cutting long new
swaths of highway through previously “impenetrable” jun-
gles — one even traversing the sprawling Amazon river bas-
in from east to west.
But let’s dwell here on just a piece of the story. Soybeans.
Big in this country now for animal feeds and oils, and a high
cash-value crop longer than many Americans realize. In
demand elsewhere, too, particularly in Japan, where soy-
beans spell food and they’ve depended on us for 90 per cent of
their consumption.
When President Nixon for a while slapped export limits on
our soybean output, he hit the Japanese where they live. And
suddenly Brazil popped into the picture, as Japan let loose
the word it’s been eyeing that Latin country as a new and
possibly, in time, sizable alternative supply source.

It turns out that, though far back, Brazil is already the
third largest soybean producer after the U.S. and China.
More important, it’s hot for expansion in this field. The
product grows well in the country’s higher, somewhat drier
southern regions.
Wheat farmers there, disappointed over recent poor out-
put, are switching to soybeans, despite the fact Brazil right
now has to import part of its wheat needs and doesn’t want
to become too dependent on imports.
Still, providing the pursuit of this new big-seller doesn’t
get too feverish, Brazilian authorities want to encourage
what’s happening. This year they estimate they may export
$600 million worth of soybeans as they produce perhaps three
million tons.
In 1974, they say exports of this product may surpass $1
billion, with production possibly reaching five million tons. If
that occurs, it may be the first time in the country’s history
that coffee slips from its historic perch as Brazil’s top ex-
port.
This doesn’t mean coffee is falling from favor. Demand is
stable, and the world market price high. Brazil wants to hold
its place in this lucrative field.
Nevertheless, the soybean export push is symbolic of its
wish to find more and more of the means required for major
economic uplift which will truly unlock the big storehouse.
Naturally enough, Brazilians are thinking of themselves.
Their annual per capita income is $30, as against oil-rich
Venezuela’s $950 and Argentina’s $880. Brazilians want to be
industrialized, independent, and playing a role that matches
their size and resources. *
Never mind that. It will benefit a good part of the world if
they bring it off (and of course the problems are many).
Anyway, just for a change, there’s a nice helping of good
news.

EDITORIAL COMMENTS
This Is Big United Month
While some of the earlier aspects of theGreater Ennis United Fund Campaign
were put under way earlier - in September - October is the month for most of
the canvassing in this sizable and important and needed task for the commu-
nity.
There necessarily will be a considerable number of people engaged in this
drive for charitable agencies.
Many have already been contacted and others will be contacted right away
now.
Drive Chairman JimTemplin and his staff are hopeful that as many of those
requested to work in the drive as are able to do so, will "say yes," for the very
good reason that the campaign is expected to be wound up this month.
It's going to take a lot of work. But it's for a fine cause!
