SUMMARY
Thesis: Times have changed, more than most realize or politicians acknowledge. The military, Pan-American "community", and economic reasons for our approach to Latin America have declined importantly. 1) we have little security problem; the bases are insignificant except as psychological warfare. Very little current need for the region's strategic materials and our tankers and carrier-centered naval groups cannot use the Canal. 2) The Pan-American community is a myth; only Grenada agreed with the US in the US last year more than half the time. 3) Investment and imports from the region account for only about 13% of our total.SPEAKER'S AFFILIATION

Letter from the women representatives of Jersey Homesteads' co-operative clothing factory to Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt
Jersey Homesteads (later Roosevelt) was established in the 1930s as an agro-industrial cooperative community. It was established specifically for urban, Jewish garment workers, many of whom had emigrated from Europe. Women representatives of Jersey Homestead's co-operative garment industry wrote a letter to Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt as the Jersey Homestead community was on the brink of failure. They explained that although the community was successful in attracting private industry to locate in the Jersey Homesteads factory, the Farm Security Administration's leasing conditions made the company unwilling to sign. The women ask her to intercede on their behalf to the Farm Security Administration, so that they might be able to earn a living
