Retort Discourteous. What sparked the Brazil-Soviet break was a rude affront to touchy national honor. Last fortnight Moscow's Izvestia said, in a generally churlish editorial on Brazil, that President Eurico Caspar Dutra was "surprisingly colorless even for a country where the generals are made, not on the battlefield, but on coffee plantations." The Brazilian Army fumed. A Foreign Office demand for an apology went unanswered. Last week the Brazilian Ambassador in Moscow was instructed to tell the Kremlin that 2½ years of edgy fraternity (but no trade) were all over...
Washington Luiz returned to a Brazil that could report progress under her year-old democratic Constitution. The fact of the Constitution itself was significant. "That," said a Brazilian, "gives us something to respect." President Eurico Caspar Dutra and Brazil's army had followed constitutional procedure when they suppressed the Communist party (TIME, May 19), and had acted only after obtaining the approval of the courts...
Paper Blizzards. After landing at Galeao airport, the presidential party was taken across the bay in a Brazilian naval launch. At the Touring Club dock, Harry Truman hopped out briskly, strode up the red-carpeted gangplank to greet Brazil's President Eurico Caspar Dutra and his wife "Dona Santinha." Sitting side by side, the two Presidents drove for six miles along the flag-lined streets between long lines of Brazilian soldiery. Cheering crowds lined every inch of the way. Blizzards of paper fell from the taller buildings. Standing up in the car, Harry Truman waved amiably to yells...
Black Ties. There were Argentine lunches, Panamanian drinks, and Mexican decoration ceremonies. There was the opera, with Gigli singing in La Tosca and tiaras sparkling from the boxes. One night Brazil's President Eurico Caspar Dutra gave a state dinner in the palm-lined patio of the neoclassic Itamarati Palace. While a company of 120-the men in black ties and the women in low-cut gowns-nibbled pheasant and sipped champagne, swans glided in a candlelit pool and ballet dancers whirled on a special stage. Ignoring the rain, the ladies seized a lifetime's chance and swept...
...speeches he is to deliver this week at the closing session of Rio's Inter-American Defense Conference and the joint session of the Brazilian Congress, and get set for a round of official festivities unmatched in Brazilian history (see LATIN AMERICA). At the request of Brazilian President Eurico Gaspar Dutra, he would extend his stay from five to seven days, to help celebrate Brazil's 125th Independence Day. The big fiesta would be a pleasure for Harry Truman, who always has a wonderful time and does a wonderful good-will job on trips abroad...
