10 -THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, May 5, 1964 FLASH REVOLT BRINGS CHANGE Brazil Rights Herself After Economy Crisis By EDGAR MILLER RIO DE JANEIRO (AP)--A month ago Brazil was teetering on the brink of economic disas- ter and a possible takeover by Communist: elements. Today it is making strides toward whip- = its tangled web of prob-je: lems. The lightning revolution that drove Joao Goulart from the'! presidency has brought many changes in Latin America's largest nation--and more are in sight. ' Inflation has been doubling the country's cost of living every year. Obviously the revo- Jution alone could not solve this accompanying debt prob- lems. But it has brought a cli- mate of confidence unknown for) . three years. The cruzeiro, Bra- Brazil's monetary unit, has strengthened in relation to the dollar, and the stack market had a surge. Food lines causefl by phoney . shortages have disappepared Rio's daily blackouts, caused by and alleged power shortage ended. Wheat has. begun arriv- ing from the United States to avert a threatened bread short- age. PRICES LEVEL OFF Prices have levelled off some- what, thanks mainly to state ac- tion temporarily freezing prices on many products. Guanabara State says food prices. for the} first time in years, showed a slight decline over the 30-day period. The government has moved to follow up its initial advantages) with measures aimed at} streamlining Brazil's tax struc- ture, solying supply which caused food shortages, purging governmental dead- wood, and eliminating some of the basic causes of the inflation- ary spiral Brief Urges More Aid For Deaf Children | KITCHENER (CP)--A five- poiat brief urging greater pro- vingial aid toward the education of deaf children is to be for- warded to Education Minister Davis by the Ontario Parents' Council of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing. The brief was approved Sat- urday at a council conference attended by 29 delegates. The points urged by the brief are: --A starting age of two years} for training children _-- hearing handicaps; --Establishment of classe 5| wherever there are at least| six children eligible; --Operation of classes either by local school boards or, where a parents' association now is operating such classes, donation of special grants; --Only fully-trained teachers to conduct the classes; --Programs to include a com- pulsory parent education pro- gram and training in the de- velopment of the senses, speech, lip - reading and, | where possible, hearing. Officers include Howard Ed- monds, Niagara district, sec-| retary and Frank Colosimon, North Bay, director. problems | Goulart tried some of the same measures but they failec as he gave in to first one ther another pressure group ad- versely affected. President Humberto Castello Branco, armed with a packet 0! extraordinary powers plus the firm backing of the ~ military forces which ousted Goulart, seems immune to most of these pressures. Many Brazilians, imbued with the idea that the military's place is in the background, took a dim view of the armed forces' postrevolutionary action, al-| though they said firm measures | were needed, Castello Branco, a highly re- spected military man who rose) from private to supreme com-| mand of his nation's armed! forces, has 21 months to clean house on his own terms, He has picked a team of bas- ically nonpartisan ea ogee as| cabinet ministers, They -- promised to start the. basic forms, including land ref for | that Goulart talked about.

Focal point of the campaign is the department (state) of To- lima, where "'the violence," as the undeclared civil war has come to be known, has claimed some of its most savage tolls.
