A recent item in Stars and

that "she may be small. but is a

she packs more power than any
other ship her size and weight and
twice as much as any modern de-
stroyer" The 43 celebrated her
first birthday on October 81. 1945.

months during the war because her

any damage.

TO feel that false pride and bonn
bast have more than a little TO do
with the ugly situation. The union
arrOgantly demands that the Cen
eral Motors corporation shall an

ration haughtily replies that il will
answer four days later-and is
too supereilious TO add that the
deadline does not give it time TO
discuss its answer thoroughly.
The union could easily have
said. We request an answer with
in "a hours" And the corporation
could SO easily have replied. we
regret that we are unable TO give
our answer within that time but
will DO so by Friday" As usual.
neither the corporation nor the
union was sufficiently interested in
the American public TO thus sacri-
flee their false pride.
The union declares. If the cor
loration can show that IL is i'm
possible TO pay 30 per cent higher
wage rates without increasing
prices and at the same time TO
continue TO pay substantial profits
TO its stockholders. We will scale
down our demands TO the point the
arithmetic of the case requires.
This seems a fair demand-and
would be were IL not for the quail

verting an undue portion of their cur
rent and prospective output from
workers, farmers and their families.
THE exhausted and war devastated
L countries of Europe constitute an
economic laboratory for revealing
the dangers of printing money with
out regard to the availability of con-
sumable goods and services.
The breakdown of the money Sys
tenn in frustrated belligerent nations
has resulted in the temporary use of
cigarets as a medium of exchange
and a standard of value.
In face of the danger at home,
complacency should be replaced by a
resolute determination to exercise
self discipline and restraint.
The folks back home in the grass
roots, seeing the handwriting on the
wall, should write to their senators

Americas capacity to serve it's

the treasury can become the unsung

Detroit evening times., 1945-12-01

THE new national goal should be a
L balanced budget.
This should be achieved at the
earliest feasible moment-if possible,
by the year of 1947.
If federal expenditures are to be
held within receipts it will no longer
suffice to disguise spendthrift budg-
etary items by glamorous labels, such
as providing milk for the HotentotS.
Every proposed expenditure must
be Judged in light of the emergency
fiscal situation.
This is accordingly no time for
.embarking on new and additional
spending schemes such as federally
financed medical care.
IF SOCIAL chaos and backslldlng
L are to be averted, the government
must learn how to pull in it's belt.
The ordering of S5,000,000,000
tax cut in 1916 makes the need for
economy in expenditures more acute
than ever.
Fiscal solvency will pay huge
dividends.
It will stop the threat of Contisca
ton of the accumulated nest eggs of
thrifty citizens.

THE public statement which &C
i companted the resignation of Ma.
Gen. Patrick j. Hurley as American
ambassador to China brings into the
open much of what is WRONG with
American foreign policy.
1t remains TO be seen what effect
the statement will have IN COR
RECTING what IS wrong.
Gen. Hurley has refused to 60
back to China because, III spite OF the
fact that he approves of and has at
tempted to implement the principles
of American foreign policy officially
promulgated, he has found himself
consistently and discouragngiy trus
trated and defeated.
He has found, he reports, that
what the highest officials Of the
American government SAY is the
foreign policy of the United States
is not what we DO in practice.
"The astonishing feature of our
TO, eiRn po!i,y. he says, is the uOide
DIS CREPANCY betDeen our
ANNOUNCED policies and our
CONDUCT OF international rela-
tions."
EOR instance, Gen. Hurley recalls,
L we went into the late war openly
and honestly committed to the prin-
ciples of democracy.
But we came out of it, as he says,
furnishing lend-lease supplies and
using all our reputation to UNDER
MINE DEMOCRACY end to Boil
SER IMPERIALISM AND COM
MUNISM."
The manner in which this amaz-
ing situation came to pass is perfectly
illustrated by Gen. Hurley's expert
ence in China.
He had been SENT to China to
assist in the unifcation of the coun-
try under the Nationalist govern
ment, that objective being considered
of the utmost Importance to the
American government as the Presi-
dent and the secretary of state
Judged the matter.
But there was a different judg
ment of the matter in the mysterious
inner circles of the state department,
with which Gen. Hurley quickly
found himself at odds
"The professional foreign service
men," according to his report, sided
rOith the Chinese COMMUNIST

Der, 1915 issue of REVIEW OF WORLD AFFAIRS

COMMENTATORS all over the world now admit the
y fact. Nearly everything must be set in Russian
context. Just few years ago It set IN German
context. And in the context of a Russia IN crisis.
Stolrn is very i'll. Many commentators and states
men now find themselves in a very awkward position AS
the of Germany the of Russia there has
been steady refusal to face facts and big propaganda
of positive concealment. During one of the most
significant stretches Of contemporary history any news
which did conform to what the British and American
governments wished the public believe rubbed out
Where this not possible the errng commentator was
hunted from post to pillar
Detroit evening times., 1945-12-01

WHEN these saboteurs of Ameri-
w can policy were dismissed by
Gen Hurley from diplomatic posts IN
China over which he had power, he
discovered that their influence in
Washington was so potent that they
soon TURNED UP AGAIN as
''adUisors to the supreme COM
plaHder in Asia" rOhere they haze
eUer since continued to side uOith
the COMMUNIST ARMED PARTY
against American policy"
In short, concludes Gen. Hurley,
despite the fact that we have fought
and won a great war for the survival
of democratic principles:
"A considerable section OF our
state department is endeaUoring to
SUPPORT COMMUNISM GEN
ERALLY, as weti as specifically in
China"
Consequently, Gen. Hurley has
reflected upon the dangerous situa-
tion in which the President and the
secretary of state are themselves
being frustrated and undermined in
matters of foreign policy and has
decided that he owes it "to them as
tUeH as to the country to point out
the reasons for the failure OF the
American foreign poiicy in reaching
the objectiUes for rOhich We said tOe
Uere fighting the War."
DRESIDENT TRUMAN and Sec
Il retary of State Byrnes quite
obviously BELIEVE Gen Hurley
and know he is RIGHT, or else they
would not have offered him re-
appointment.
Why, then, do not the President
and the secretary CORRECT the
things he has so clearly and cour
ageously shown to be WRONG?
Plainly, there are insidious and
vicious elements in the American
state department conniving at COM
MUNIST SUPREMACY not alone
in China, but all over the world.
And as Gen. Hurley says: Amer
icn's strength should not be allied
Dith ANY PREDATORY IDE-
OLOGY."
