But one of the most brilliant achievements of World War II was the speed and effectiveness with which the United States Government developed a synthetic substitute for rubber. Our real dependence for raw materials. outside our country. should encourage us to step up the proportion of help we give Latin Ameria. But Latin America has been the stepchild of foreign aid since it was started. Representative WALTER told the story of how Congress appropriated money to help Latin American countries receive some of the Italians and others. who wished to emigrate from Europe. But Representative WALTER said the State Department spent only $1 million out of the $15 million Congress appropriated. Equally specious is the argument that foreign aid spending helps business and makes jobs.
