Priest Plans Peace Effort By Driving Peace Corps Car
Jesuit Father Charles Prendergast, longtime missionary in Yoro Honduras, plans to drive a Peace Corps car to Honduras this month to improve U S Latin American relations. He says Latin Americans respect nations using power but warns Americans are seen as aloof in the region. He notes few Americans visit the working class or the embassy and views the Peace Corps as a hopeful though gradual step.
