Reconversion Policies
Rv r TOMpKJNS
By f. F. TOMPKINS

TTNHE public which is every one of u.s. has some very
Il important reconversion duties to perform.
ITEM NO. do not sell your war savings bonds
unless it is emergently necessary for you to do
To prevent hardships the treasury department will
redeem your bonds at any time.
In order to do so, however the treasury must BOR
borrowed FROM YOU,
A little of this is not very harmful
Much of it would be economically and socially dis
astrous.
IF ANY important portion of these bonds to be
Il turned back before maturity, the government would
have to borrow many billions of dollars from banks and
pay these dollars to the public else print and issue
billions of dollars in money.
The business of bank financing would cause two kinds
of initiation O credit initiation, large increase in
bank deposits would result from the treasury borrowing
and (2 money initiation because of the huge number of
dollars repaid to bond sellers and added to the money
already in circulation.
Credit money, being interchangeable with currency,
might easily aggravate the trend towards disastrous
volume of money in circulation.
New money issued directly from the treasury without
backing would merely be fiat money capable
of producing the kind of initiation that ruined Ger
many under the Weimar republic and brought on the
of nazsm.
IN EITHER case, prices would be tremendously in
creased involving excessively high costs of living and
real wages would be correspondngy decreased the
purchasing power" of money declined. THE MORAL is
DON'T DUMP" YOUR BONDS.
ITEM NO. 2-As consumer goods return to the
market, every will need to do unusual of
buying.
The important thing is to the right money.
This will be accomplished by HOLDING your
bonds and SPENDING out your current income or out
of savings put aside for the purpose
1t is much better also to buy the nstalment plan
and keep your bonds than to sell he bonds and pay
cash for what you buy.
ITEM NO. 3-Do not listen to Socialists and Com
munists
They do not believe in the American system of free
enterprise, although it SAVED the Communist system
Russia and DESTROYED the Nazs and Fascist systems
in Germany and Italy.
DY FOMENTING strikes in industry, by encouraging
I'D public debt and political squandering. and by melting
class and racial conflicts the Communist deology is TO
turn the reconverson period into revolutionary period
in which the American system of free enterprise may be
proclaimed a failure and be undermined
Free enterprise made this the most prosperous and
successful country in the world
And as long AMERICAN ENTERPRISE is free,
the AMERICAN PEOPLE will remain free.

Us. Foreign Policy

and most of the other nations of the
world with colonial holdings or i'm
perialistic records are without aspi-
ration for further territorial
acquisition now or lacking in oppor-
tunity to implement such an aspira-
ton.
THERE is only one exception
among the major nations, as the
President we'll knows-and the ex-
ception is Soviet Russia.
Russia has already imposed gov
ernments by force upon long list
of weak nations, not only without
their consent but against their will.
The list of such nations is
growing.
President Truman was talking
ABOUT Russia when he said there
should be "return of sovereign rights
and self-goUernn,ent to all peoples
who haUe been deprived of them by
force"
He was talking TO Russia when
he said the United States "shalF re-
fuse to recognize any government
imposed upon any nation by the
force of any foreign power."
He was stating the worlds case
AGAINST Russia when he said that
"aL peoples uDho are prepared for
seIf-goUernment should be permitted
to choose their oWn form of goUern-
n1ent by their oDn freely expressed
choice, without interference from
any foreign source"
A THOUGH the NAME of Russia
"A was not spoken by President
Truman in his statement of the
things the United States opposes and
denounces as a matter of permanent
foreign policy, the CRIMES of
Russia were clearly enumerated.
It may be true, as Mr.. Truman
said, that "in some cases it may be
impossible to prevent forceful i'm
position" of unwanted governments
the present situations in Poland
and other Baltic and Balkan coun-
tries being shameful proof of that
fact.
But in any event, in consequence
of his declaration, the United States
will never approve or condone such
crimes against humanity-and Presi-
dent Truman, we believe, has the full
authority of the American people to
make that declaration.
Detroit evening times., 1945-11-05

A MONG the customary and inevi-
4 \ table generalities of President
Truman's declaration of American
foreign policy" in his Navy Day
speech, there were three important
and specific pronouncements.
The first was the Presidents
unequivocal statement of American
intention to maintain impregnable
and invincible defense power, par
ticularly in terms of sea power.
The second was his blunt rejec
tion of the proposal that the United
States and Great Britain divulge the
secret of atomic power to other
nations.
The third was the sharp re-
minder, given with utter finality,
that the government of the United
States still adheres to it's policy Of
nonrecognition of governmental re-
gimes imposed by force upon weak
nations by strong nations.
On all of these points, President
Truman is eminently sound-accord
ing to the vital American interest in
those matters.
ON THE first two of the three
" points, he is virtually without
opposition in his own country-and
he properly ignores whatever oppo-
sition exists, for the small section of
American opinion which would
weaken the navy and at the same
time arm our potential enemies with
the most devastating weapon known
to mankind is surely unworthy of
recognition.
But in the field of usurped sover-
eighty, the President has met an
intense domestic and international
controversy head-on-and has done
so with the utmost courage and
patriotism.
The very fact that the American
policy regarding this matter NEEDS
restatement, in the Presidents opin.
ion, is significant.
He obviously knows that there is
problem of usurped sovereignty in
the world.
He knows that the United States
has not created that problem, and
has no intention of doing so.
He knows that Great Britain and
France and the Netherlands among
our Allies, and Germany and Italy
and Japan among our recent enemies,
