Something being new under the Caribbean sun is the West Indies Associated States, a grouping of seven British-owned islands
upgraded politically from territorial status to states in association with Great Britain. Statehood day for St. Kitts*
Nevis-Anguilla is Feb. 27, for Dominica and St. Lucia March 1 and for Grenada March 3. Total area is 970 square miles
and population about 350,000. The islands' economies are based on tourism and agriculture. Principal crops are sugar,
bananas, citrus fruits, cocoa, cotton and spices.
Ky Declares He’s

CHRISTCHURCH, New Zea
land (UPI) —South Vietnamese
Premier Nguyen Cao Ky flew
here from Australia today and
declared “I am not a puppet of
the United States or of any
other government.”
Ky heatedly made the reply
at a news conference when
asked about Sen. J. William
Fulbright’s (D-Ark.) statement
the United States should replace
Ky if he refused to negotiate
with the Viet Cong.
“I repeat again what I have
said many times,” Ky said.
“Only the Vietnamese have the
right to decide the destiny of
Vietnam.”
A crowd of more than 500 on
the terminal roof gave Ky a
clapping, cheering welcome
when he arrived at Christchurch
International Airport. He strode
over to shake hands with
several crowd members.
A crowd of 300 outside Ky’s
hotel was also friendly with

Things were fairly simple in
the old days when doctors refer
red to all types of kidney disea
se as nephritis or Bright’s dis
ease. The catch was that the
treatment used wasn’t equally
effective In all patients. Although
this may be true of any disease,
it Is especially true when three
or four diseases are lumped to
gether under an umbrella diag
nosis.
Years of patient study have
revealed that In addition to se
veral types of true nephritis,
which are fairly closely related,
there are two types of kidney
disease which are quite differ
ent — nephrosis and nephroscle
rosis.
The term nephrosis covers a
group of diseases in which the
urine is loaded with albumin, the
albumin level of the blood is
markedly subnormal and there
is waterlogging of the tissues.
The underlying kidney damage
may be due to an allergy, poi
son ivy, Insect stings, an Infec
tion, lupus erythematosus or
poisoning with heavy metal com
pounds, such as those of mer
cury, gold or bismuth. The first
symptom is often puffiness of
the face. There may also b«f
an accumulation of fluid in the
abdominal cavity, loss of appe

Nephrosis is seen in children
more often than In adults but Is

Nephrosclerosis Is a compli

United Press International
ATLANTA (UPI) — Georgia’s
new governor looks upon his
election and first few days In

“Now that they (people) see

Maddox said he has never

thing they have seen so far.
“I surely feel I am on the,

I’m encouraged to believe this
more so because of the support
of so many people.
“I haven’t heard of one per

It would be a mistake to think that interest in religion is at
a low ebb on the college campus.
A survey among the day students at one large big-city col

Some 67 per cent of the students had discussed religion
within the past week, 63 per cent with a person of a different
religion.
In a full third of the discussions, the aim was to share re

the discussions were aimed at building new friendships. Only
5 per cent were attempts to prove the other man wrong.

Venezuela, riding successfully through desperation-phase
terrorism by Castroite Communists in Caracas, is strongly
placed now to take the leader role in the 1967 Latin-Ameri
can summit meeting—tentatively set for April.
The late-1966 Red outbreaks gave a misleading impression
of resurgent Castroite strength.
Earlier in the year, guerrilla bands roving the Venezuelan
hinterland had been virtually destroyed as an organized
force. Terroristic remnants, taking refuge in Caracas, picked
up their old bombs-and-bullets routine in a last-gasp effort
to discredit President Raul Leoni’s viable democratic regime.
The undertaking was worse than futile. Leoni clamped
down hard. He dared what no previous Venezuelan leader
would do: He eliminated the Central University’s status as %
political (and terrorist) sanctuary, unearthing a rich cache of
arms and arresting hundreds. He emerged stronger than be
fore the bombs were thrown.
This course of events illustrates again the capacity of Com
munists to outflank themselves. They long ago targeted Ven
ezuela’s budding democracy as the ripest, most vulnerable
spot for assault on the South American mainland. The net of
their efforts has been to strengthen it.
Yet it would also be misleading to suggest that, Leoni hav
ing carried the day with widespread popular support, Vene
zuela (not to mention the rest of Latin America) is henceforth
safe from Red depredations. An undercurrent of grave men
ace remains.
In Today’s the final Latin-American population exceeds 200 million.
third of this century it is destined to triple. Tre
mendous economic growth rates will be needed to lift pres
ently Latin low living standards prevailing generally throughout
lands. Normally good growth rates—4 to 5 per cent per
year—will barely enable these nations to hold their own
against the population tide.
The underlying idea is simple enough—to get a really
mammoth plosion overwhelms undertaking fully rolling before the population ex
Latin America and opens it far wider
than today to the threat of Communist inroads.
The Alliance for Progress is hailed as offering great prom
ise, largely unfulfilled. With leadership from the hopeful de
