False Premise Backs
Cradle -to-Grave Plan,
Woodrum Declares
Says Planners Are RoreIy
Concerned With Problem
OF Paying for Dreams
By he Associated Press

BY he Associated Press
Representative Woodrum, Dem
ocrat, Of Virginia charged today
that the National Resources
Planning Boards recent recon-
mendation of cradle to the
grave" postwar security system
was based upon an entirely false
premise"
Il recognize" Representative
Woodrum said in statement, the
urgent necessity for those charged
with the responsibility of Govern
ment to think ahead to see to it, as
far as we can, that we are prepared
to meet problems that will un-
doubtedly occur at the end of the
war.
Il cannot, however, subscribe to
the philosophy embodied in the
cradle to- the grave report.
In the first place. the report
seems to assume that Immediately
upon cessation Of hostilities there
will be vast unemployment due to
demobilization of troops and war
industry In the second place the
report apparently assumes that the
postwar period will be one of great
economic distress and depression
calling for record breaking Federal
support of its citizens. And finally
the report seems to assume that
American citizens have neither the
inclination nor the ability to do
anything for themselves.
The homely old admonitions to
thrift and self reliance, are ignored
and instead the citizen is given
assurance that he has nothing tc
worry about, dear old Uncle Sam
will be there to succor, comfort and
support
Not only is the scheme based
upon false premise, but the plan
ners apparently took no account
whatsoever of the cost Of the under
taking. Such planners rarely are
concerned with the practical prob
lem Of financing or paying for their
Utopian dreams"
Il do not think" he said. I'VE
have the right to assume that with
the cessation Of hostilities our
armed forces are going to be imme-
diately demobilized or that war in
duStry will at once stop
Representative Woodrum foresaU
continued use of large armed forces
here and abroad; continued building
of a large Navy, Merchant Marine
and Air Force, and the like, giving
gradual transition.
so it would seem to me- he said
that when we picture a post wal
America with millions of our citi.
bens unable to care for themselves
incapable Of finding work and forcec
to rely upon the Federal Govern
ment, that We are making an as
sumption that is not only unjustifiec
but that might be considered ar

nish the leadership that will take
