	TIME.com: Turn to the Front -- Dec. 24, 1965 -- Page 1
		He is Alberto Lleras Camargo, the longtime Liberal leader (and distant cousin of Lleras Restrepo) who served ably from 1958 to 1962 as the front's first President, then retired to Manhattan and a job as editorial chairman of Visión, Latin America's leading Spanish-language newsmagazine.
		The likelihood is that Lleras Restrepo will win the presidency against a divided opposition next May. He might even be able to do something for Colombia—if he gets the chance.
		Though he has none of the personal appeal of Lleras Camargo, he is a respected economist and former Finance Minister who knows the hard things he must do to reduce Colombia's spiraling cost of living (up 64% in three years) and soaring foreign debt (up 100%, to $750 million).

	Colombia in the UN. Prologue
		BY ALVARO TIRADO MEJIA Y CARLOS HOLGUÍN HOLGUÍN. The principles that inspired the United Nations are the heritage of today´s Western civilization.
		Peaceful settlement of conflicts, observance of the precepts of international law, mediation, respect for the principle of equal rights, international cooperation and the system of protection and defense of human rights constitute a conquest that the entire human race can rightly be proud of.
		They therefore demand a redefinition of the United Nations in order to provide it with the ideal necessary instrument to be able to assume and overcome the complexities of this stage of history which carries us toward the dawning of the 21st century.

		The Colombian president must seek support from two political systems: one, the classical or conservative; the other, pragmatic and industrial, concerned with economic development.
		The actions of President Carlos Lleras Restrepo in his handling of the Colombian foreign exchange crisis and in his dealing with the International Monetary Fund are examined from the perspective imposed by these conflicting political systems.
		Lleras' skillful exploitation of a disagreement with the IMF has succeeded in arousing public support for his economic development program that will assist him in avoiding the restraints and compromises imposed by the traditional party politicians in Congress who helped to elect him to the presidency.

	Colombia - Post-National Front Political Developments
		The PL supporters of Julio César Turbay, who was closely linked to López Michelsen (1974-78), received more than 1.5 million votes, as compared with 800,000 for supporters of Carlos Lleras Restrepo, a highly respected former Liberal president (in office 1966-70).
		Turbay narrowly defeated the Conservative candidate Betancur in the June 1978 presidential elections, in which only 39 percent of the electorate voted.
		His election was helped not only by endorsements from four former Liberal presidents--Alberto Lleras Camargo (1945-46; 1958-62), Lleras Restrepo, López Michelsen, and Turbay--but also by fears of a spread in public violence following Betancur's failure to pacify the country's guerrilla movements and his liberal reforms of the penal system.
