Brazil's President Getulio Vargas found that his country had 1,200 German schools teaching exclusively in German, that 500 of his new Army conscripts spoke no Portuguese (Brazil's national language).

Early in 1940 U. S. Steel Corp. finally drew up a plan for a $35,000,000 project which caused impetuous little President Getulio Vargas to announce that the U.

Yankee imperialism was damned in Latin metaphor and Japan was added to those desiring to bundle up with Brazil...
