Died. Oswaldo Euclydes de Souza Aranha, 65, Brazilian rancher and statesman who gained enough experience from revolutionary clashes of the 1920s to captain the forces that installed Strongman Getulio Vargas as Brazil's President, went on to be Vargas' Ambassador to Washington (1934-38) and Foreign Minister 1938-44), established close relations with the U.S. (though in later years he became disillusioned by U.S. hard-money policies), persuaded other Latin American countries to sever diplomatic relations with the Axis, brought Brazil into the war on the side of the U.S. over the reluctance of his chief and even...

Another Brazilian of distinction who will work for the Ex-Im loan is Rio's new ambassador, to Washington, Ernani do Amaral Peixoto, who arrived in New York last week with his wife Alzira, daughter of the late President Getulio Vargas. Amaral Peixoto took a leave of absence as chief of Brazil's top political party, the Social Democrats, to accept the post. With Kubitschek, Amaral Peixoto and Lopes all working on an already well-disposed Eisenhower Administration, it is likely that the Brazilians will get much of what they...
