SummaryResumen

The Evening Star reported on U.S. wartime cooperation and mutual aid programs established across Latin America. Cooperative health programs to control malaria were launched in eighteen nations, including the Dominican Republic and Haiti, to sustain the production of vital war materials. The article emphasized that these initiatives, along with agricultural and technical assistance, were mutually beneficial cooperative efforts rather than unilateral handouts.

El *Evening Star* abordó los planes cooperativos y de auxilio mutuo desplegados por Estados Unidos en Hispanoamérica en el contexto bélico. Se estructuraron programas sanitarios mixtos para el control del paludismo en dieciocho Estados, incluidas la República Dominicana y Haití, con el fin de asegurar el rendimiento continuo en la extracción de insumos estratégicos para la contienda. El informe recalcó que estos planes, junto al respaldo técnico y agrícola, obedecían a esquemas bilaterales equitativos de beneficio común y no a dádivas discrecionales unilaterales.

Miranda explains, “but aid, fifty-fifty aid.”

During the past five years, our government,

as much because of the war as anything else,

has supplied just that. Health programs were

established in 18 countries because, without

controlling malaria, workers in Paraguay and

Uruguay, the Dominican Republic and Haiti

could never have been able to produce goods

and materials needed for the war. Our men

helped establish food-supply programs in

Costa Rica, Panama, Honduras and elsewhere

for the same reason, and to help supply

our own troops and civilian workers at air and

naval bases.

Vocational education, to cite only one ex

ample, helped provide a pool of skilled Latin

American manpower for the emergency.

When we couldn’t send rolling stock needed

by Mexican railroads, we did find Spanish

speaking experts who showed how twice as

much freight could be carried with the same

equipment and got Mexican workers to

help pick crops in manpower-short areas.

None of this was a handout; it helped both

ourselves and the Latin Americans.

Many of these programs are war babies.
