...already far behind on its payments. Indeed, the U.S. Government last week suspended new aid to Peru because of a law requiring a cutoff of funds to countries that are more than a year in arrears. But his policy might set a dangerous precedent: if such debtors as Mexico, Brazil and Argentina, which together owe more than $200 billion, were to limit payments to a fraction of export earnings, many large U.S. banks might face a squeeze on profits...
Other disturbing questions were raised by Dr. Ali Z. Hameli, chief medical examiner of the state of Delaware and the forensic expert who identified the six-year-old remains of Nazi Josef Mengele last summer in Brazil.

On the basis of my conversations, I'd say the top three contenders remain Cardinal Dionigi Tettamanzi, the Arcbishop of Milan; Cardinal Claudio Hummes, the Archbishop of Sao Paulo in Brazil; and Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, the head of the Vatican's Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith, who has been John Paul II's chief theological enforcer. Tettamanzi would probably be the leading Italian contender; Hummes would represent a turn to the developing world where the Church continues to grow...
