Brazil Homes Largest Source Of Japanese Outside of Orient
By Gary J. Neeleman United Press International
SAO PAULO, Brazil — Fifty-six years ago 165 Japanese families walked down the gangplank of the Kasadomaru liner in the port city of Santos to begin a new life in the
rolling hinterlands of Brazil's Sao Paulo state.
There are 600,000 Japanese and
Today, the state has the biggest concentration of Japanese citizens and their descendants in the world, outside of Japan.
Diplomat Thinks Red Split Started in 1948 by Slavs

In Vienna, earlier this month, a United States diplomat with long years of service both inside and on the fringe of the iron curtain, was speculating on the date when it might be said the first cracks appeared in the structure of world communism.
This correspondent had just returned to Vienna from a brief visit to Budapest, Hungary, and had suggested that one such date might be the 1956 Hungarian Revolution.
The American diplomat made it much earlier, placing it instead at June, 1948, when Joseph Stalin expelled Yugoslavia from the cominform for hostility toward the Soviet Union and deviation from Marxism-Leninism.
Soviet efforts later to turn the tide and to restore total Moscow authority, as in the Soviet attempt to isolate Albania, failed.
AND THIS, finally, brings us to the events surrounding Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev's celebration last week of his 70th birthday.
TWO CONCLUSIONS may be drawn.
One is that the satellites oppose an open break with the Red Chinese because of the factionalism it would encourage within their own parties.
The other is that, despite his own great power, Khrushchev is not entirely a free agent either within the Soviet Union or within that portion of world Communism which sides with him against the Chinese.
Mao, as leader of the world's most populous Communist nation and a veteran revolutionary, regards himself as the logical interpreter of Leninism.
And as of today there are three kinds of Communism — the kind practiced by the Soviet Union, the kind advocated by the Red Chinese and the Nationalist Communism rising in the western satellites.
Japanese-Brazilians living in this country — South America's biggest nation. Only about 160,000 were actually born in Japan. More than 400,000 live in Sao Paulo state, many of them in a district of this industrial city known as "The Japanese gardens."
There are about 30 Japanese-financed industries in Brazil with a total investment of about $50 million, producing everything from fishing tackle to heavy equipment.
There are tour Japanese banks, nine export-import companies, 15 representation firms, several insurance companies, three Japanese language newspapers, one Japanese language radio station, three Japanese movie theaters, and 30 Japanese restaurants — some complete with teahouses, geisha girls and oriental music.
Subcontinent Seeks Peace
Before a cheering throng of 50,000 in Srinagar, capital of disputed Kashmir, a Kashmiri politician voiced words to which the United States could utter a fervent "amen."
It is a goal urgently sought by statesmen of the United States, Britain and the United Nations over 17 years but one which constantly eludes them, keeping India and Pakistan at the brink of war and poisoning U.S. relationships with both.
The speaker was Mirza Mohammed Afzal Beg, in Kashmir politics second only to the man beside him on the platform, Sheik Mohammed Abdullah, the "Lion of Kashmir."
"We will not have peace or security in the subcontinent," he said, "until the problem of Kashmir is settled and India and Pakistan live in friendship."
BOTH MEN just had been released from prison where they spent more than 10 years for advocating self-determination for Kashmir against the will of India.
THE JAPANESE COLONY plays an important part in Brazil's agricultural economy. The two Japanese farm cooperatives here are among the largest in South America. "Cotia," the biggest Japanese farm co-op, has 6,600 families. The other, "Cooperative Agricola Sul Brasil," has 3,000. These farms produce the majority of Sao Paulo state's green vegetables, strawberries, tomatoes and potatoes and all of its tea.

For Indian Prime Minister Jawharlal Nehru, Abdullah's release had been a calculated risk but one that apparently had gone wrong.

Bargain with Life For a Penny?
"You'd be surprised how many 22- year-olds are more interested in our retirement plan then in anything else we have to offer. The thing I can't understand is why should young people these days be so ultra-conservative, so narrow in their view of the future."
You'd be surprised how many people sell themselves short — self-depreciation. Instead ask yourself what are your chief assets. Then think in terms of how much you can accomplish using these assets.
Recently we talked with a recruiting specialist whose main job is visiting the college campuses to recruit graduating seniors. His remarks indicated he was very discouraged about many of the attitudes of the young men he talked with.
Think big. Remember what the mind can conceive can be achieved.
See what can be achieved, not just what is. Stretch your vision—grow big by thinking big.
I bargained with life for a penny,
And life would pay no more.
However, I begged at evening when
I counted my scanty score.
For life is a just employer, it gives you what you ask,
But once you have set the wages,
Why, you must bear the task.
I worked for a menial hire, only to learn, dismayed,
That any wage I had asked of life,
Life would have willingly paid.
