Brazil may have worst behind it, Fed's Kelley says

HOUSTON, Oct 29 (Reuters) - Federal Reserve Governor Edward Kelley said on Thursday Brazil was still facing a
difficult path getting over its economic crisis but speculated the worst may be over for the Latin American country.

''I think that Brazil has every chance of getting through this perilous period that they're in...I am confident that that
country is not going to implode,'' he told reporters after giving a speech on the Year 2000 computer problem.

Asked if the threat of a devaluation of Brazil's currency had receded, he replied: ''I have no notion that it's all over
with and in the past, but I would hope that perhaps the most worrisome part may be getting behind us now.''

Brazil on Wednesday unveiled a three-year $84 billion austerity plan aimed at getting its ailing economy back on track and laying the foundations for a widely
expected multi-billion dollar international assistance package.
