LaTex / PDF export doesn't hyphenate

LaTex / PDF export doesn't hyphenate

ENVIRONMENT:  Using Mac OS X Mountain Lion, Emacs 24.3, Org-mode 7.9.1.

PROBLEM:  When I export to LaTex, there's no hyphenation.

The problem exists even when I manually insert hyphenation points with \-
as shown below.

This problem exists when I process a book manuscript, and also when I
process a tiny file such as the following:

=begin quote=

#+LATEX_CLASS: book

** Affiliate

a) One individual or organization ("Person") is an Affiliate of another
Per\-son if, either directly or indirectly via one or more intermediaries,
the first Person controls, or is controlled by, or is under common
con\-trol with, the other Person.

b) For this purpose, a\nbsp{}Person controls an organization if the Person
has voting control\nbsp{}--- via legal, beneficial or equitable ownership;
a\nbsp{}voting agreement; or otherwise\nbsp{}--- of securities of (or other
interest in) the organization having more than the Minimum Voting
Percentage (51% if the Agreement does not specify otherwise) of the
aggregate right to vote for the organization's board of directors or
comparable governing body.

c) A\nbsp{}Person also controls an organization if the Person has a
legally-enforceable right to select, or to prevent the selection, of
a\nbsp{}majority of the members of that board or other body.

=end quote=


INVESTIGATION:  I looked at the buffer *Org PDF LaTex Output*; the only
occurrences of any "hyphen"-related string are:

=begin quote=

=end quote=

EXPERIMENTS:  In the course of a lot of Google-searching, I've tried,
without success, the following:

#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage[english]{babel}


and

#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage[english=hyphenation]{babel}


All suggestions gratefully received.

It works here (though on different OS and Org-mode version); it even
hyphenates things not marked by \-.  Can you paste the generated LaTeX
file and the whole .log file?  Also, try to put a line saying
\showhyphens{agreement} and search for things like "Underfull \hbox";
shortly thereafter, you should see something like "agree-ment".

Best,
