A $5 million credit has been approved by the International Development Association, an affilate of the World Bank, to help finance a population project in Egypt. The project provides for the construction, equipping and furnishing of 22 general health centers, 12 polyclinics, 3 centers for training nursing teachers and 3 centers for in service training. 100 and 50 multipurpose vehicles will be provided to improve mobility of family planning services. Also included are a study on the maintenance of health facilities, 3 evaluation studies of family planning acceptors, an experimental home visiting program to inform and motivate people on family planning, and assistance in the production of health education material useful for family planning information and motivation. Simple demographic facts illustrate the seriousness of the population problem in Egypt. The current population of 35 million will be double by the year 2000 if the present 2.5% annual increase continues. This will put strains on a country whose population density quadrupled during the last century, and which stands to day at 950 persons per square kilometer of habitable land, a density rivalled by only 2 or 3 other countries in the world. The IDA credit will cover about 1/2 of the project's expense. The Egyptian government will finance the local costs.

Brazil's 1st program for the community based distribution of contraceptives is successfully in 30 municipalities in Rio Grande do Norte, a state in Brazil's arid Northeast. Already, over 5000 women have been reached by the program, which is operated by the State Secretariat of Health with technical assistance provided by BEMFAM, and IPPF affiliate, under an agreement signed by the governor of Rio Grande do Norte and BEMFAM. In December, several newspapers reported that the program was in possible violation of a law prohibiting distribution of contraceptives without a prescription. After conferring with the secretary of health and local BEMFAM personnel in Rio Grande do Norte, Dr. Walter Rodrigues, executive director of BEMFAM, declared: "There has been no violation of the law for the simple reason that the program was carried out by the Public Health Secretariat's Department of Maternal and Child Care and under the responsibility of its own doctors." He added that BEMFAM had provided both training and technical assistance. According to Dr. Rodrigues, the matter arose when certain well known groups that oppose family planning took advantage of an opportunity to hinder the development of the program. He also pointed out that the nurses and midwives who dispense the pill obtain a prescription for their patients from a local doctor. Many mayors of the 150 municipalities in Rio Grande do Norte have requested the governor and secretary of health to start the program in their municipality. However, expansion of the new distribution program to additional areas will take place gradually as the number of trained personnel and resources increase. Brazil's President elect General Ernesto Geisel takes office in March. The new president, a Lutheran, will be the 1st Protestant to lead Brazil.
