Background Information on the Superintendency
for the Development of the Northeast (SUDENE)
SUDENE was created in 1959 to promote, plan and coordinate economic development in Northeastern Brazil, one of the largest underdeveroped areas in the world and the largest in the Western Hemishpere, (1)
SUDENE decided to carry out its work through means of three year plans. The First and Second Master Plans, respectively, have covered the periods of 1960-1962 and 1963-1965. SUDENE's Third Master Plan has now been approved covering the period 1966-1968. By the end of 1965, SUDENE had made investments in the Northeast of Cr$ 5il-.5 billion. Since its formation, SUDENE has had three Superintendents. The first was Celso Furtado, who was dismissed after the Revolu• tion of April 1961|.. General Expedite Sarapaio directed the orga• nization until the arrival of the present Superintendent, Joao Gonqalves de Souza, in July 1961).,
The Superintendent of SUDENE reports to General Cord'eiro de Farias, Minister for Coordination of Regional Agencies, SUDENE is directed by a Conselho Deliberative (Deliberative Council) composed of the governors of the states and territory within the region and representatives of various federal organi• zations and entities operating within SUDENE's area of juris diction. The development activities of foreign countries and inter• national agencies are coordinated within SUDENE by ACI (Assessoria de CooperaQao Internacional-Advisory Office of International Cooperation), headed by Cicero de Oliveira Salles,
(1) The Northeast is considered by SUDENE to include the^states of Maranhao, Piaui, Ceara, Rio Grande do Norte, Paraiba, Pernambuco, Alagoas, Sergipe, Bahia; and, for programming purposes, part of the state of Minas Gerais included in ' the Drought Polygon and the Territory of Fernando Noronha.

Background Information on media in the States of
Pernambuco and Rio Grande do Norte
I NEWSPAPERS a, Pernambuco
Three newspapers are published in Recife six days a week. There is one weekly newspaper. In addition, many of the papers from Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo ahe available on the local newsstands throughout the Northeast,
The independent Jornal do Commercio is Northeast Brazil's largest newspaper (circulation 15 to' 20,000 weekdays, 30 to 35,000 Sundays), The paper is moderately conservative, pro- government, and the most influential paper in Northeast Brazil, The Diario de Pernambuco owned by the Diarios Associados Chain (operated by Assis Chateaubriand) is Latin America's oldest newspaper. The Diario is Recife's second paper In cir• culation X'jith about 8000 weekdays and 15,000 on Sundays, It is conservative and pro-government. The Diario da Noite, owned by the Jornal do Commercio, is the evening paper, with n circulation of about dOOO, It is moderately conservative to liberal, pro-government and aimed at a less educated audience,
b. Rio Grande do Norte The principal dailies are Diario de Natal (Diarios Associad Chain), Tribuna do Norto, (owned by the present governor of the state, Aluizio Alves), Jornal do Commercio, Gorreio do Povo (owned' by defeated gubernatorial candidate Dinarte Mariz) and A Ordem (diocesan paper). All newspapers favor the present government.
II RADIO Radio is undoubtedly the most widely used medium in the Northeast, Of the estimated (June 1965) 1089 "stations"(defined as an installation broadcasting on one frequency) in Brazil, 125 were in the Northeast. There are no regular netv;orks with coaxial cables. However, all stations are required to make arrangements to rebroadcast the "Hora do Brasil" (news of the federal government's and Congress) from 7 pm to 8 pm daily. In this area, as in most others, the young tend to listen to the radio raoro than older groups.
Both states h'avo § number of radio stations, usually with limited facilities. Radio Jornal do Commercio is easily the top station in Recife, listened to by twice as many people as any other station. Other stations include Radio Clube de Per• nambuco (Diarios Associados )j Radio Continent
III TELEVISION Of the forty television stations in Brazil, seven are located in the North and Northeast, A conservative estimate of the number of television homes in Brazil for 196,5 is 2,500,000. According to estimates of the television industry the entire North and Northeast, including Bahia, had only 200,000 television sets in late 1961}.,
Recife has tx^jo television stations xyjhich through 'means of repeater stations also reach Rio Grande do Norte, TV Jornal do Commercio (Channel 2) (same- ownership as the newspaper) is the most xwidely viewed stations. Recife's second station is TV Radi'- Clube (Channel 6) owned by the Diarios Associados. TV Jornal do Commercio's facilities are new and the station is one of the best equipped in Latin America. Daily programming on both stations is from about i).:30 pm to midnight.
IV INTERNATIONAL NEVJS AGENCIES In addition to the bureaus of the national newspapers and magazines, the following international nox^s agencies have officeo, correspondents in Recife:
United Tiro"ss International Associated Press Reuters Agence Prance Press Climate 3.n the Northeast
The Brazilian Revolution, hf March/April 1961; was relatively quiet in the Northeast of Brazil. The rumored uprisings of the Peasant Leagues did not materialize nor did other- manifestations in favor of the former government and its leaders. Inspired agitation in the r.anks of labor, rural workers and students virtually ceased and, with few exceptions, has not been resumed. The majority of the press supported tho revolution as did the other media, Recife's Ultima Hora, a paper which supported forme President Goulart and Pernambuco's leftist Governor Arraes was closed shortly after the revolution and has not reopened its offices' here, although it continues to be published in Rio de J-aneiro, Since April 1961;, the Northeast's pbpers have supported the actions of the Castelo Branco government. Opposition to the government's policies was found in universities and some intel• lectual circles. Several events during the past six months have led to specvL- lation in the press and privately the revolution was losin.e control before it had had an opportunity to achieve the goals established by the revolutionary leaders. One of the significant events xvas the gubernatorial elections of October 3» 1965 (although the revolution was not directly an issue and although supporters -^'f the revolution xj-ere elected in five of the eleven states, tho loss by pro-revolutionary candidates in the key states of Guanabara and Minas Gerais w.ns interpreted by some observers as an indication of the Government's lack of popular support). Another event was the return of former President Juscelino Kubitschek, whose political rights had been cancelled by the revolution. Earlier Miguel Arraes and Francisco -Juliao, leader of the Peasant Leagues, were released from prison, Tho government also had difficulty in obtaining the majority it needed in Congress to pass a constitutional amendment and a bill respectively giving it greater authority to intervene in the states' and greater control over those who had lost their politica rights.
There was general surprise when President Castelo Branco on October 27, 1965 decreed "The Second 'Institutional Act" despi'L" rumors in the press th.at it was imminent. Press reaction in this area has been favorable to the decree. The gox'-ernors 'of Pernam• buco, Alagoas, Paraiba and Rio Grande do Norte immediate'ly indorsed the act, as did a nxiraber of other organizations.
The general reaction amongst liberals has been, "¥e don't like it, but what was the alternative? We don't like to see increased centralization of powers, but we do see the advantage this brings in increased economic stability and the lessening of the social-economic crises which have wracked the Northeast for years."
