Searching for Solvency
By Raym ond NJ Obey

information about the financial prob
lens of Government.
This whole effort toward sound A.
nance has certain characteristics which
are worth noting in these days of in
ternal conflicts. It has no enemies, for
every one or nearly every one favors
economy and lower taxes. Labor. man
agement. farmers, all can agree that
there will be more for every one If
governments cost less. II high level
OF production is attained, there will be
high level Of employment, and the
burden Of taxes will be lighter. The
encouragement given by a balanced
budget to people who invest in produc-
ton activities is obvious to every one.
1t is also clear that the ideal of all
parties and factions is. that jobs should
come through private employment, not
through Government doles or made
work. Presidents Roosevelt and Truman
have both said that. And even the now
badly battered full employment bill
asserts that fact.
An unprecedented national debt has
given every American the haunting
fear that we shall never find the way
to solvency. But with reasonable agree
ment on all sides on number of
simple tax and spending principles, we
can, perhaps within year. carry the
debt and pay for our Government with
out borrowing more. The Tax Founda-
ton is trying to get the facts necessary
to such an agreement over to all the
people who, in the last analysis, pay the
bills

This Changing World
By Constantine Brown

The demonstration staged by the
Communist party OF Washington In
front Of the State Department, insisting
on the withdrawal OF American troops
from China, interests diplomatic OBJ
servers here as an example Of the way
In which the international Communist
movement is being used as a tool Of the
Russian Foreign ONCE.
And the sudden transition Of the
Communist party in the United States
from an agency which went all out" in
its propaganda in behalf of the Allied
cause to a purely subservient instru-
ment Of Moscow has naturally given
rise to speculation as to its future posi-
ton In the United States.
In this connection a historical glance
may be interesting. During the period
between the German invasion OF Poland
which followed by less than a month
the signing Of German-Russian nom
aggression pact-the Communist party
in this country put out q constant
stream Of propaganda against American
entrance into the war. The Daily Work
er, the official Communist newspaper
in the United States, from day to day
harped on the theme that the battles
in Europe were part of an "imperialis-
tic war" in which the United States
should take no part.
*x*
THE Yanks aren't coming" was the
constant slogan OF both The Daily
Worker and various demonstrat lions
staged by the Communists in American
cities, including Washington.
This writer recently went through the
files of The Daily Worker in the Con-
gressional Library for the war period.
and some of its editorials are most IL
Illuminating. For example, for the week
preceding the German invasion of
Russia on June 81, 194l, the Communist
organ printed series of articles and
editorials severely criticizing the "capi-
talistic press" for war mongering" be-
cause some writer's had predicted that
Germany would attack the Soviet
Union.
That was certainly no secret in Wash
ington. For at least six months before
the invasion, the State Department had
known that Hitler planned to 20 into
Russia, and the former Under Secretary
Of State, Sumner Welles, had warned

socialism at Britain, and Is so impov-
erished and destroyed that it is likely
to be a relief burden rather than any
thing else for years to come-not only
because of the destructiveneSs of war,
but because of the political and eco
nomic atomiZation, to which our crazy
postwar policies are notably contribut-
ing.
This happens to be pertinent to Brit
ish credits. For unless Europe can be
nationally reconstructed, both politically
and economically, Britain cannot re-
cover even with our loans. British trade
essential to British economic existence
has been almost equally divided into
three parts: Cd With the Empire and
Commonwealth, where the terms of the
credits now restrict Empire preference,
t2> with continental Europe. and 80
with the rest Of the world. The outlook
for prosperous commerce with Asia is
very dark for the time being. and con-
tinental Europe is out of the picture
altogether, and will be until policies are
revised.
1t Is a great mistake for the United
States to believe that it can dragon
the social systems of countries by finan-
cial blackmail, or that dependency on
America-and on American terms-is
the only way out for the rest Of the
world. In extremes all countries have
alternatives to becoming financial COL
onies or perishing.
Germany, under Hitler, operated a
barter economy at great advantage to
herself and great disadvantage to us.
There is always more than one way of
skinning a cat.
The Soviet Union which has extended
her totalitarian economy. for which bar
ter is eminently fitted, to include greater
Poland with the German Slesian in
dustries, highly industrialized Czecho-
slovakia, and Yugosiavia and Romania
with their rich resources, can offer any
European country. II pushed too far,
ways out, however distasteful they may
be.
The idea of dragooning left-of-center
governments, like the British-or the
ecently overthrow Italian Parri gov
,rnment-rightwards by financial pres
ures is likely to have just the opposite
fleet. in the long ruin Both Fascism
md Communism raised the slogan OF
the have-nots against the HAYES, and of
subservience to plutocratic powers. The
only country that can possibly be so
described today needs to watch its steps,
and operate with vision and generosity
beyond the ordinary counting room.

Publicity Would Help

The Council OF Social Agencies
study of welfare work in Washing
ton will include the Board of Public
Welfare and will perhaps present
facts to support amendment of the
legislation under which the board
functions. Such amendment may
be desirable. The board seems to
be in hot water most of the time.
But amendment of legislation should
be based on study of why a system
which works very we'll in running
the public schools exhibits so many
curious weaknesses when applied to
the field of public welfare.
One fundamental difference be-
tween the Board of Education and
the Board of Public Welfare-both
boards being composed of volunteer
citizens-is the attitude toward pub
licity. The Board of Education
functions in public, with the excep-
ton OF some matters relating to per-
sonnet. If member of the Board
of Education FISHES to exhibit his
vagaries, he does so in open meet
Ing, with the reporters there to de-
scribe the spectacle. A member of
the board very quickly reveals him.
self as an asset or liability in wise
supervision of the public schools.
The Board of Public Welfare, on
the other hand, operates in a mys-
ferrous secrecy. It's meetings are
closed to the press. It's director of
public welfare is full of mumbo-
jumbo concerning the sanctity of its
proceedings, its plans, its accom-
Observation-Disclosures all of these
are the business of the public. The
secrecy is invoked, it is said, in order
to protect the personal affairs of
underprivileged citizens with whom
the board deals. But full publicity
on policies, open meetings and open
discussion of board actions need not
expose the affairs of any ward of the
board. These could be adequately
protected by common sense rule,
In the enforcement of which the
press would gladly Cooperate.
The truth of the matter is that
the board has been injured by the
policy of secrecy and the public has
suffered in consequence. Public
meetings would do more to fix per-
sonal responsibility and require COM
petent performance of duty on the
part of its members than any other
single reform. If the board does
not welcome such publicity, it is
merely another sign of weakness
and goes far to explain the origin
OF some of its difficulties with public
opinion

Hurd Facts
Bv David Laurence
From the GLASGOW Herald.

from the GLASGOW herAl0.
Whatever the outcome of the present
discussions there are hard facts in the
British economic situation which the
public at home cannot escape. Even
before the war much lower proper
ton Of annual output than desirable
was devoted TO improvement of indus
trial equipment, and with the wartime
deterioration noted elsewhere the whole
productive organization of the country
stands in urgent need Of modernization.
Without such moderniza tion-which in
wolves maximum savings and their In
vestment IN new plant-a foremost place
in competitive world trade cannot be
secured, and in the absence of success
In that sphere all the plans for full
employment and high standard of life
will be in distinct danger. Little as IT
will be disposed to do so after six years
OF wartime austerity, the country must
therefore resign itself to a further
period OF sacrifice both as regards hard
work and restraint In buying.

Vital Statistics

The infant and maternity mortal
ity rate in America still runs high,
and much can be done to reduce it
substantially. Nevertheless. as the
Children's Bureau of the Labor De-
partment has just disclosed in spe-
cial study. gratifying progress was
made on this front in the decade of
1933-1943.
Thus, in 1888, there were So deaths
in every 1000 live births, but by 1913
the rate was down to 40 per 1000, a
drop of more than 80 per cent.
Similarly, during the same period,
in every 10000 live births, the NOR
tality rate among mothers declined
from 81 to "a, a drop of more than
60 per cent. From a record low in
1888, moreover, the Nations birth
rate showed 80 per cent increase
by 1943, when there was an all-time
numerical high Of 100000 newborn.
These figures, especially those
covering the mortality rate, obvi-
ously represent a marked trend for
the better. According to DR.. Martha
M. Eliot of the Children's Bureau,
major credit belongs to the doctors,
in private practice and public serv-
ice, "for the work they have done in
their care of women during preg-
nancy and the improved care they
are able to give at childbirth and
after delivery" Other important
factors include better hospitaliza-
ton, the extension of maternal and
child-health services under the social
security program, and improvement
in the economic status of many
families during the last decade
an improvement reflected in more
wholesome diets for prospective
mothers and in the fact that as
against only about IS per cent in
1888, some "a per cent of the Ma
TONS births now take place in hos
pitfalls, "the safest place for baby
to be born"
But though excellent gains have
been made since 1888, 1t is still a
fact, as DR.. Eliot declares, that about
$4,000 babies and 1000 mothers die
