...background of this crusader deserved some attention. Joe's father was a man who had studied for the ministry, gave it up after he read Robert Ingersoll, married a Kentuckian, studied law but never practiced, taught school, sold textbooks, became a Bull Mooser and a Woodrow Wilson internationalist. Joe, the sixth of seven children, was born in Crookston, Minn., in 1905. Joe played football at high school, worked as a farmhand and went to Antioch College.

Initiator of last week's talks: Jose Gustavo Guerrero, president of the International Court of Justice and Central America's leading internationalist. To his home in Santa Ana, El Salvador, he invited the heads of the five Central American countries to discuss reunion now. Only two came.
