VENEZUELA HAS BEEN MA
DE he most prosperous nation
in Latin America from 80 per-
cent of the profits of foreign oil
companies, mostly American,
operating there. But its Con
gress is about to finalize what
is called "Hydrocarbon Rever-
sion Law”, which shifts the
ground rules from concessions
granted oil companies in 1943
Under present Venezuelan law,
concessions were granted to run
40 ytars or until 1983. At the
expiration of this term no com-
pensation would have to be paid
to the companies for their ppro-
duction. The concessions would
revert to the Venezuelan Gov-
ern ment but under the law,
which repports indicate is al-
most certain, all assets of the
companies would also be taken
over—rigs, pipelines, real estate
j buildings and even the bowling
alleys. The companies will be
required to post a bond on their
yearly profits to insure their
good behavior.

embavrassment of his wife, who
decided to cure him of the habit.

we have only protested and re-

Their operations are important

COULD IT BE THAT Because
the United States has so eroded
its own credibility as a major
