Crisis in Korea

lQe iOng-mOuutlnR IIOuUleS III
the American-occupied zone Of
Southern Korea have reached a
pitch which betokens not merely a
local crisis but another test Of
Soviet relations. There
Is strong suspicion that the wave OF
Communist agitation, sabotage, and
open violence in the American zone
has Soviet support and is directed
from Northern Korea.
The immediate aim of the Com
munists, led by what our occupa-
tional authorities euphemistically
term vicious agitators from out
side" is to produce such chaotic
confusion that the native provi-
sional government slated for inau-
guration in our zone cannot func-
ton. Already our commander, Gen.
eral Hodge, has been obliged to pro-
claim martial law over the extreme
southern region where the recent
uprisings took place, with curfew
ordered throughout our zone for
both our soldiers and civilian per-
sonnel for their protection. Mean
while, the economic life of the zone
is half -paralyzed by an epidemic of
politically inspired strikes.
The long range Communist aims
are to discredit our administration
in native eyes, increase the costs of
our occupation-which was nearly
$3.50, ,O00,0 900 the first year-and per-
haps sicken our public opinion at
home with a venture which pans
out so badly and runs the risk of
precipitating clash between Amer
lea and the Soviet Union.
That Moscow appears bent on
eventually gaining control Of all
Korea becomes apparent with the
entire pattern of Soviet policy ever
since the original Soviet-American
agreement made at the close of the
war with Japan. Under that agree
ment, Korea was bisected into Soviet
and American occupation zones, the
demarcation line being the 38th
parallel of latitude, which gave
Russia the industrial north and
America the agricultural south.
This arrangement was supposed to
be PROVISIONAL; prelude to the
establishment of a joint trusteeship
of the entire country in preparation
for native independence on a demo-
cratic basis. But Moscow has shown
no willingness to cooperate in car
rying out the spirit and the letter
of that agreement. The demarca-
ton line remains an "iron curtain"
and now our zone is being thrown
into chaotic turmoil by anti-Ameri-
can agitation.
Obviously, such situation can
not endure indefinitely. Sooner or
later we must face showdown with
Moscow over Korea or withdraw.
The latter course would have dis
astrous results on our position in
both China and Japan. We have,
in other words, another bear by the
tail.

way to counter the potential spread
OF Communism would seem to re-
quire not merely vigilance against
the Communists themselves but also,
and perhaps more Importantly. a
far-reaching educational program to
promote a mass awareness Of the
fact that the Soviet idea and the
idea Of liberty are mutually exclu-
sive.

Report on Communism

To the extent that the problem Is
serious enough to merit the close
attention of the American people,
the United States Chamber of Com
merce has done a useful thing in
issuing a special report on Commu-
mist infiltration in this country.
Drawn up by the chambers Com
mittee on Socialism and Commu-
nism, the report has the virtue of
showing in simple language how the
Communists in the United States
can injure American interests by
promoting the Moscow party line
In several subtle and not-so-subtle
ways. They can do it directly
through their own propaganda in
struments, and indirectly through
the echoing segment of the left
wing press. They can do it, too,
through their fellow travellers" and
their front" organizations, and by
winning control of key labor unions
and planting themselves or their
sympathizers in positions of trust in
the Government.
In citing the danger implicit in
this, the chambers report renders
distinct service, and some of its
recommendations are self-evidently
sound. That said, however, it new
ertheless displays certain serious
weaknesses, not the least of them
being an inadequate recognition of
the historical forces behind the
growth of statism. It emphasizes
that it is accurate and dispassion-
ate," but in more than a few places
it is neither It cautions against the
loose use of terms, but it speaks of
fellow travellers" in way that
might include many good Ameri-
can who may happen to disagree
fundamentally with the chamber on
some isSues-for instance, with the
chambers grossly distorted view that
the Yalta and Potsdam agreements
"sprang" in large measure from
Communist Vaccinations, "aided by
the strongly pro-Soviet group" in
the State Department Similarly, it
calls for the searchlight of publicity
on any disloyal individual or organ
ization, but it is itself careful not
to name names when 1t suggests
that "a prominent and highly re-
spected metropolitan newspaper" has
beenIdeliberately following the Mos
cow line in cts reporting and edi-
torials on foreign affairs"
This sort of thing is typical of
what has discredited past efforts to
deal with the problem of Communist
infiltration: Names ought to be
named if the evidence is clear. and
If the evidence is mostly presump-
ton, loose charges ought not to be
flung about. There is good reason
to campaign against Communism in
America, but as the Chamber of
Commerce itself points out, the
campaign will be self defeating if it
does not discriminate between those
who are really disloyal and those
who are merely dissenters from the
general view.
Our own democratic principles
and standards of fairness and JUS
tice demand such discrimination,
but it is a difficult thing to achieve

Wants Freedom From OPA

Wants Freedom From OPA
To the Editor Of The Star:
: OPA equals the unpopularity of pro-
hibition in its noble experiment. The
country is in bad condition today due
to Government forced controls which
have cut production and material which
the people desire. A great many lead
ing industrialists are showing deficit
in their financial reports on account of
these unpopular controls, with little pro-
duction as result.
The Treasury of the United States
naturally will feel the chaotic condi-
ton financially which will not help to
reduce the high taxes the people are
paying.
The meat situation is only one exam
pie of how controls by OPA are affect
ing production in cars, homes, etc.,
which in due time would come down to
the popular price level.
The Government also would benefit
by income taxes after the country goes
into full production and an era 81 un-
precedented business prosperity IN
orally should follow.
OPA has outliyed its usefulness NC,
and God grant US early deliverance.
