Historical literature has traced US efforts to bring Latin American countriesover to the side of the Allies in WWII. Following a period of hesitation andnegotiation with the US and Germany, the Brazilian government aligned itselfwith the US. What remains virtually unknown is the involvement of scientists inthese diplomatic arrangements. Recently unearthed material has shown thatArthur Compton's 1941 trip to a scientific conference on cosmic rays in Brazilwas linked to efforts led by the Office for Inter-American Affairs under NelsonRockefeller.
