promises freedom from Worry, l0ant
as many freedoms as you lOish,
EXCEPT FREEDOM FROM THE
STATE ITSELF" says Friedrich
Hayek in his epochal book, "The
Road to Serfdom." F."
1t is behind the lulling opiate of
"the welfare state" that state social
ism, the final step toward all-out
communism, is being put over in this
country
All seven socialistic bills now be-
fore Congress-the most radical of
which is the "full employment" bill
are cooed into the ears of the
people as welfare" legislation.
The greatest real "welfare state"
ever known in history was instituted
in 1889.
1t is known as the UNITED
STATES OF AMERICA.
This country since that date has
done more for the physical, mental
and financial "welfare" of more
people than any other state on earth.
THE core of this true welfare
l. state" established by the found
ing fathers was PERSONAL LIB
ERTY, COMPETITIVE RIVALRY
and FREE ENTERPRISE.
The whole world - almost - set
sail or wanted to set sail for the great
western welfare state" where the
only GUARANTEES were, not full
employment" and cradle to grave
security, but EQUALITY BEFORE
THE Law, RELIGIOUS FREE
DOM and LARGE FINANCIAL
REWARDS for the thrifty, the in
dustrious, the venturesome and the
resourceful.
That was the "welfare state"
known as the U. S. A. until few
years ago, when an idea imported
from Russia under the name of the
welfare state" took possession of
the administration then in power.
John M Hancock, CO author with
Bernard NJ Baruch of the two re-
ports on postwar policies, outlined
the menace that is upon us in the fol
lowing from a recent address deliv-
cred before the American Manage.
ment Association in New York City.
In the last decade We haze seen
many steps taken in the direction of
a planned economy and state social

ism. We are asked to accept tor
ourselves What has been tried by
many countries in Europe to their
own economic and social injury.
Didn't We fight this latest Dar
to destroy this same idea in the
minds of our enemies, and aren't lOe
notU insisting in our terms of peace
that this same idea be rooted out
throughout the world? Doesn't it
seem a strange thing that tUe should
say that idea is Uorth trial by us?
Yet that is the purpose being adUo-
Gated in much of the legislation be-
fore Congress.
"Such legislation is frankly
aimed at progress tolDard state So
cialisn1 and strong federal goUern-
ment, ething abhorred in
America since its first colony Was
founded"
THAT this welfare state" idea
Il (model 1888 -1945) comes from
slave state Russia Mr.. Hancock also
sees plainly enough. He said further
in his address:
"Could it be that the idea that
the government rOill guarantee jobs
for all tUho Uant them came directly
from Nicolai Lenin, Uho pointed out
many years ago that the Way to de-
stroy our type of self government
lDould be to create a public belief
that government could permanently
supply all of the people Yith jobs?
"He pointed out that the certain
result rDould be such clamor for
jobs that no free government could
withstand the demand and remain
financially stable. And Lenin prob.
ably didn't see hoU soft a goUern-
nent could be regarding pay rates,
for, of course, ii does no good for
the state to guarantee man a job
unless it sets rates of pay and the
kind of a job that tOiH satisfy him as
a Uoter."
In fact, the "welfare state" idea,
as promulgated today by Commu-
nists, Socialists and their fellow
travellers, is designed to do just what
Lenin wanted it to do - that is
BREAK DOWN THE FREE GOV
ERNMENT OF THE UNITED
STATES and substitute for it the
Russian penitentiary state, where
there is "full employment" at the
point of gun.

THE ROAD
To TOKYO
BY James R,
Young

THE full story of the depart
Il ment of states negotiations
leading up 10 the Pearl Har-
Dor catastrophe was not COW
cred by the army and navy
courts of inquiry. but the more
that is known about the deba-
cite the worse the wreekaee
smells from the Washington
side.
The fault for Pearl Harbor
lies 80 per cent in Washington
and as far as Adm. Husband F..
Kimmel is involved, he is being
prosecuted.
On the basis of a recent in
terview in Tokyo by newspaper
writer's with Navy Capt. Mitsue
Fuchida, who commanded the
six aircraft carriers which
struck AT our bottied-up fleet,
/ note an important date which
ties in with an equally impor-
tant ultimatum which the Japa-
neSe gave TO the u. s. embassy
in Tokyo in September, 1941.
Capt. Fuchida says that his
carriers, which were accom-
panied by two battleships, three
cruisers, four destroyer flotillas
of four ships each. and eight
tankers, sailed from their bases
Nov. 26. 1911, en- route 10
point 200 miles from Pearl

Clipper ship was held for ku-
ruSu who, in a recent interview
AT a mountain resort in Japan,
says that ne took no specific
proposals 10 Washington. This
explanation fits in with my be-
lief that the then navy minister,
Adm. Shigetaro Shlmada, now
held AS war criminal. was
counting on kurGSu to prolong
the Washington conversations
with our cautious and timid
protocol agents.
I DO not believe that KuruSu
L was familiar with details Of
the exact location or date OF
the attack. but thorough
Pearl Harbor investigation can
prove, by decoded messages
which were available at the
White House and in the state
department, that Adm KichiSa-
bu . Nomura, the Jap ambaSSa-
dor TO Washington. and Kurusu
were instructed by Tokyo TO
N a in tain the conversations
daily, obviously until Capt.
Fuchida's carrier planes could
take off.
This available information is
part of a bulky package Of
enemy messages. as well as
our own, now threatened with
special coverinG-up legislation
sponsored by the war depart
ment and handled in the Sem
ate by Senator Ebert y.
Thomas Cd of Utah. The
purpose is TO keep from the
public the contents of inter-
ceptcd, decoded or cipher mes
sages.
The Roberts commission and
other investigators have not
revealed the basic truths. This
is evident from the fact that no
official trial action has ever
been taken on the basis OF their
reports.
