...Brazil's Jânio Quadros, leading exponent of mediation before the Cuban defeat, was reported to be in favor of some form of OAS sanctions. Known to be deeply shocked at Castro's blatant Communism, Quadros last week issued a joint statement with Argentine President Arturo Frondizi, calling on Latin American nations to repel "any direct or indirect interference of extracontinental forces...
...Stevenson went on. "But in the course of 1959, Castro began the anti-American, anti-United States campaign that in recent months has risen to so strident a crescendo."

President Frondizi's chances of survival to the end of his six-year term, once considered unlikely in the extreme, are now a better-than-even-money proposition.
