Even though this topic was examined, this task was not carried out during the project. Without said information, it is not feasible to apply any assessment methodology with the purpose of quantifying economically the effects of the measures designed in the Plan.
Unfortunately, such evaluations cannot be made in Uruguay due to the lack of sufficient information. Despite the efforts made within the framework of the project to gather information or estimate a part thereof, those efforts were unsuccessful. The absence of information or systematisation has been recognised as one of the biggest obstacles to make an economic analysis of the project. Nevertheless, considering Uruguay has ratified the Convention; it is deemed that the socioeconomic analysis does not become essential since the objectives of the policies have already been set in said Convention.
However, the instrument becomes adequate to evaluate different alternatives or to learn about the number of benefits of the implementation from a quantitative point of view. As a result of the analysis in Section 6 a conceptual framework of a project for the development of the socioeconomic evaluation tool, is introduced in parallel to begin implementing P2, P3; P4 and P5 programmes.
Annex IV includes the report issued by the expert in the economic area covering the following aspects: Sworn translator graduated at the University of the Republic in Uruguay.

An excited little boy watches. At depots across America, the scene was repeated countless times as fathers and sons and husbands returned from battle. Implicit in the joy of each homecoming was the understanding that more than a quarter of a million families grieved for soldiers who would not come home. Post-war America loved the automobile; one of the people collected souped-up luxury cars and another died in a car crash. Post-war America viewed cigarettes as glamorous; two of the people died from smoking-related cancer.

In post-war America, shops closed in small towns as people left for bigger towns and cities and suburbs; the Moore family drugstore went broke and all four of the people moved away from Villisca. Post-war America liked to unwind with a drink or two or more; alcoholism brought pain to each of the four. Through whatever heartaches the family faced, their lives reflected the pride and perseverance of post-war America. This is their story and in many ways the story of the country they loved and served. This is where a story about a boy who grew up in rural Iowa should tell about happy, wholesome small-town life, about fishing in farm ponds and sipping sodas at the corner drugstore.
The corner drugstore indeed was central to the life of Robert Ross Moore, the second of three sons of Ross and Jessie Moore. Ross owned a drugstore on the town square of Villisca, about 75 miles southeast of Omaha. His sons tended the soda counter. During the night on June 10, , when Bob was 7, someone took an ax and killed his uncle, aunt, four cousins and two visiting children. A suspect was acquitted. A detective hired by Ross Moore accused the local state senator, F.
Jones, of hiring the killer. Jones sued for slander. Folks in town picked sides and pointed fingers. Children from one camp were told not to play with those in the other, and adults would not patronize merchants in opposing camps. Fear endured in the town and the family. Bob Moore told of a visitor who stayed out late one night. The guest let himself in quietly, hoping not to disturb anyone, and was met by Ross Moore, wielding his shotgun. Bob Moore was profoundly affected by the murders of his playmates.
In his youth, he attended one of the three trials resulting from the murders. Though he talked with his children about them, he was critical of continuing public discussion of the murders. As much as the ax murders divided Villisca, the Army National Guard united it, and Moore was always glad to talk about the Guard. Dennis Neal, a lifelong friend who died last week, recalled recently that in a training exercise Moore expressed the leadership style he followed throughout his four-decade Guard and Army career: She divorced him after three years, on grounds of cruelty. Little is known about the marriage, which produced no children.
Coming from a time when divorce was considered a scandal, Moore never spoke of his first wife. His son, Robert Moore Jr. A year later, Ross Moore died, and his second and third sons, Bob and Bill, took over the drugstore. The children in the famed photo were born as Iowa struggled through the Great Depression and German and Japanese aggression pushed the world into war.
During training and through the war, townsfolk kept up on their servicemen through reports written for the Villisca Review and the Adams County Free Press in Corning by Sgt. Moore insisted that his men keep in touch with their families. Don Patton recalls being summoned to the headquarters tent at Camp Claiborne. In May , the troops left for Europe. Ed Croxdale, a doctor, was sent to the Pacific with the Americal Division. Moore and his family back home kept in touch through regular letters. I wish you were home to play with me.
Company F moved to Scotland, and yes, Daddy did send something, Scottish tartan fabric. Dorothy made Nancy a kilt, held together in the front by a large safety pin. A generation later, Nancy bought a similar skirt for her own daughter. Moore also sent home the Dick Tracy comic and some new comic books, exhorting his daughter to read: Soon after that letter, Company F was on shipboard, heading for a landing in Algeria on Nov. Moore, a major and executive officer of a battalion, earned a Silver Star for gallantry in the Algerian landing.
Though not in command of a unit, he rallied some scattered men and directed a flanking action that destroyed a machine gun nest. The commander of the 2nd Battalion was wounded at Sened Station and Moore assumed command. The battalion was assigned to protect a key lookout post on the mountain of Djebel Lessouda. American troops below, though, were captured or forced to retreat, leaving the mountain surrounded by Nazis the evening of Feb. Shelled, dive-bombed and tank attack. Unless help from air and army comes immediately … infantry will lose immeasurably.
But in a digital story today, I would include a photo of the toilet-paper message. You are to withdraw to position to road west of Blid Ghegas where guides will meet you. Bring everything you can. To fight their way past the German tanks would have been suicide. And the noose of Nazi forces showed no gaps through which Americans might sneak. A captured German officer told Moore he was heavily outnumbered and should surrender. Moore decided that the best way to save the lives of his men was to march right through Nazi lines.
Under cover of darkness, the Americans set out to march past the enemy. Near the spot where they were to meet the American troops, Moore heard voices from a clump of bushes and walked ahead to meet them. A man speaking German stepped from the bushes, and Moore turned and walked away.
The Germans opened fire. They escaped without casualties, though some previously wounded men and a chaplain who had stayed behind with them were captured. I decided to bring it along if it was the last thing I ever did. Moore also endured a tirade from legendary Gen. Patton , whose son-in-law was among the many troops taken prisoner at Faid Pass. Moore returned to battle soon after the escape from Lessouda, and a bomb exploded 15 feet from him on April 9, causing a concussion that made him lose his eyesight for several days.
The Army was learning costly lessons in the desert battlefields and needed to teach those lessons to new troops training back in the States.

The family received word that he would be arriving in Villisca at 9: Banners and flags welcomed the hero home. An arch of all the flags of the allied nations was assembled in the street in front of the Moore Bros. A crowd gathered at the depot. Bob Moore, officer-hero of this town of 2,, came home from Africa Thursday. Nancy, his daughter, ran across the platform, arms out.
The bag, the helmet, the blanket, thumped to the planking. She nestled there for the first time in 16 months, her tiny face against his tropical sun-darkened cheek. So did her mother, who had come over. The townspeople rushed to Moore not only to welcome him, but also to ask about those still at the war. He offered encouragement to a mother whose son was fine, comfort to a father whose son was captured.
Moore stayed briefly in Villisca, traveling to neighboring towns to speak at luncheons and update the home folk on how their boys were doing at the front. He made a point to call on the families of men who had been killed or captured. Soon Moore was sent to Fort Benning , Ga.
They taught more than tactics, as a press release from the Infantry School at Fort Benning explained:. The last of those — hate — he names as the most important. Without it, he says, the Americans suffer unnecessary deaths. Moore told of a Villisca sergeant, Monty Storm, who left the hospital to join his unit in battle.
He was instantly killed, mowed down by a burst of fire from the Germans who were raising the white flag. That taught the platoon hate. From that point on, they had the spirit and determination to kill every German they saw. Moore later told about psychiatrists from Washington who came to listen to his lectures and told him he was all wrong about hating the enemy. That ended the argument right there. While at Fort Benning, the Moore family grew to four with the birth, just a day after the Japanese signed surrender terms, of Robert R.
He is still Bobby to family and friends who knew both Bobs when he was growing up in Villisca. But the military was winding down after the war, and Moore wanted to get back home, to be near his mother and to run the family store. He did, though, return to the National Guard, retiring in as a brigadier general.
Admiration for Moore was not universal. Some resented him, either because of the lingering bitterness over the ax murders or because of wartime issues — his strong leadership style, his early return from the battlefield or the glory he received when other local troops were taken prisoner.

But to most in town, Moore was friendly and outgoing. He was an accomplished storyteller and a light-hearted practical joker. He was intense and enthusiastic in working with children as a Little League baseball coach and a Sunday school teacher. He would hold an ice cream cone out to a young customer, then suddenly pull it down a few inches as the child reached for the cone, leaving the kid with a handful of ice cream. They would both laugh and Moore would make a fresh cone.
Moore would put the tip of his thumb into his mouth and blow hard, slowly flexing his powerful biceps as if it was inflating. Dorothy Moore helped her mother-in-law run the drugstore while Bob was at the war, and helped out at the store after Bob and Bill returned from the war to run it.
But mostly she was content taking care of her family and her house. She liked to chat on the phone with other ladies around town or settle in front of the TV to watch Lawrence Welk or game shows. When she went out, she always wore a nice dress, with her hair perfectly styled, and she was almost always smiling. She would sit in a drugstore booth with Nancy and her friends and listen to their stories and troubles, no matter how trivial.
The Moores bought a home just down the alley from the drugstore and remodeled it, putting in a sun room and a dining table that was like a large restaurant booth. Above the piano in the living room hung a large painted portrait of Nancy as a little girl, her dark hair in braids, her hands folded demurely in her lap. She sang with the glee club and other choral groups and made the all-state chorus.
They became engaged at Christmas in In spring of , they graduated from high school and Watt flew to California for Air Force basic training. He came back on a day leave, and Moore walked Nancy down the aisle for her wedding on Aug. They had three children, Debbie, Patrick and Michael.
Small towns were changing. The GI Bill paid for soldiers to go off to college and many never moved back home. And with agricultural technology improving rapidly, farmers could manage, and had to manage, ever larger farms. That left fewer rural families driving into town to buy prescriptions and the other staples of drugstores — greeting cards, gifts, paint, wallpaper and, of course, sodas.
Villisca, which supported four drugstores when Moore was born, could no longer support two. Jim Honeyman, who owned the competing store, said he had some built-in advantages over the Moore brothers. So they had to hire a pharmacist. As collateral, they pledged the business and their equipment, including a couple of Hamilton Beach mixers, a foot electric soda fountain, a Hallmark card case, a wallpaper trimmer and eight booth tables. The brothers closed shop and declared bankruptcy in , when Moore was Again, the bankruptcy records would be included in a photo gallery or embedded with the story if I were doing it today.
The loss was more than financial. Moore found a job as city clerk in Red Oak, the county seat 15 miles northwest of Villisca. The Moores sold their Villisca home and moved to an apartment in Red Oak.

Eventually, Moore became a bailiff at the Montgomery County Courthouse, a job he held into his 80s. Moore loved the variety of people he would meet at the courthouse, from felons to judges. One convict the old bailiff befriended invited the Moores to his wedding. Dorothy also got involved in their new community, volunteering on Republican committees, working at the polls on election day and cooking meals for inmates at the jail.
Moore became known as a friendly and colorful courthouse character. Bobby, who graduated from Villisca High School in , enlisted in the Army after receiving his draft notice. After serving a hitch in Vietnam, he went to Officer Candidate School at Fort Benning, attending a modern version of the leadership course his father had started. He returned to Vietnam as an officer, but his military career was cut short by a Viet Cong booby trap that seriously injured his left leg. Renander, the Red Oak editor, remembers that Moore disapproved of the courts-martial that followed the My Lai massacre , in which hundreds of civilians were slaughtered by American troops.
She had an aneurysm at the base of her brain and needed brain surgery, the doctor said in a grim meeting with the family at the hospital. Dorothy came out of the coma, asking for a cigarette. She had no memory and little mental ability. How are the kids? In the s, Nancy developed multiple sclerosis , a disease that attacks the nervous system.
At first, when she started falling down for no apparent reason, she thought she was just clumsy. The disease progressed, though, until she sometimes had difficulty getting around without a walker. Jim bought a wheelchair to help Nancy get around at the car shows and an adult tricycle to ride around their suburban Kansas City neighborhood. They had a car outfitted with hand controls, so she could keep driving. As much as possible, Nancy tried to live unaffected by the disease, making dinner nightly, doing her housework and enjoying as many activities as she could, especially when the MS was in remission.
She walked on her own whenever possible. She tried every treatment that promised hope. She spent two weeks in Miami, taking shots of cobra venom. While Nancy battled MS in the early s, her mother battled cancer. First Dorothy had jaw cancer, forcing the removal of half her jaw. Then she developed cancer of the esophagus. Her decline was excruciating for the family. But Dorothy never complained of the pain.
