our command freedom, in whose
name Americans have died, will
become a catchword for reaction.
Once we grant unconditional
loans to the undemocratic gov
ernmentS of Greece and Turkey,
then, in the name of freedom,
every fascist dictator will know
that he has credit in our bank.
Today it is the governments of
Greece and Turkey. Tomorrow it
may be Peron and Chang Kali

lars, our arsenals will give weap-

people will be asked to give their

The Presidents Executive
Order creates a master index

janitor in the village posboffice
TO the cabinet member. they
are TO be siffed and tested and

Their past and present, the tat
tie and prattle of their neighbors
are all to be recorded. But more
Americans than these are in dan
ger of persecution.
INTOLERANCE has an insati-
able appetite Whom will its in
QUESTION condemn if this drive
continues?
Every American who reads the
wrong books; every American who
thinks the wrong thoughts; every
American who means liberty when
he says liberty; every American
who stands up for civil rights;
every American who speaks out
for one world; every American
who believed in Willkie; every
American who supported Roose-
welt.
Only they who saw shibboleth

violence abroad, hatred and fear

Truman Doctrine. A strong United

THROUGH months of inaction
the Congress strangled the United
Nations Relief and Rehabilitation
Administration.
The President countersigned its
death warrant. Now we are told
that America must act alone in
Greece and Turkey because there
isn't time to create a United Ma
tons Agency for relief and re-
Mobilization.
In the Assembly of the
United Nations. Senators Van
denberg and ConnaIIY said
that nothing could be done to
free the Spanish people be-
cause the United Nations had
no right 10 interfere in the in
ternal affairs of any nation.
BY what right do these same
Americans justify unilateral
interference In the affairs of
Greece and Turkey?
THE administration and its Re-
publican supporters argue that we
must intervene alone in Greece
because the United Nations is too
weak to act. 1 have not forgotten
the appeasement of Hitler.
remember that every betrayal
of world solidarity against Hitler
by Daladier and Chamberlain was
made in the name of the weak
ness of the League of Nations. Let
us not betray the future. Let the
world not destroy the United Ma
tfons as it once destroyed the
Leaguel
There is but one hope for world
peace-the United Nations. The
Greek problem is world prob
lem and must be settled by the
United Nations. If there is Turk
ish problem, it too is the concern
of all members of the United Ma
tons. That is the spirit in which
the charter was signed.
WE ASK that the United Ma
tons face the problem of security
not piecemeal but on a world
wide basis. This means the inter
naturalization of the Dardanelles,
the Suez Canal and the Panama
Canal. It means world disarms-
ment and world control of atomic
energy. 1t means real assurance
against aggression and also ade-
quate provision for peaceful
change.
Let us do for the United Ma
tons what needs to be done to
carry out these tasks.
.
IF THE United Nations is un-
tested, let us test it.
If the United Nations lacks sup
port, let us support it.
If the United Nations is weak,
let us strengthen it.
No one pretends that the United
Nations will meet all needs and
solve all problems overnight.
Patience and toll will not give
us the millennium, but they will
help to make a more decent world
than we have ever known.
If we reject this course the
United Nations will crumble
and mans hope will perish.
Sooner or LATER Humans pro-
gram of unconditional aid 10
anti Soviet governments will
unite the world against Amer
lea and divide America against
. herself.

a disaster rivaling the % temblor
which killed nearly 100000 persons.
The press PROMINENTLY displayed a

that the Kanto area was due for
another quake probably late this
year or early in 1948."
HIS statement, however, W S
challenged by Prof. Takashiro Ha-
kiwara, Imperial university seis-
mologist, who said there was in
sufficient data ON which to base a
responsible prediction.
He agreed with Yamaguchi that
there was warning sign in the
tide differences at the tip of Miu-
ra peninsula, which might herald
a severe quake on Honshu. Obser-
vatory instruments have also re-
corded gradual rise of the pen

Biggest and best event of the

ing Of terminal leave bonds. You
correspondent happened to be In
one Of the big downtown banks on

and what he saw reminded him
Of the chow lines at a reception

time. However, nobody seemed to
mind standing in line once more.
Wonder why?
The initial rush to cash. in the
leave bonds seems to be finished,
and no waiting Is now necessary IN
the banks. In fact, the whole
transaction should take less than
10 minutes. Veterans who desire
to convert their leave bonds are
advised to bring their discharge pa
pers and also other Identification
bearing ones signature. such as
drivers license, Social Security card,
and the like, since the banks are
getting tougher sbout identifica-
ton.
The best advice we can give, how
ever, Is to urge veterans to hold on
their bonds II they possibly can.
That two and one-half per cent In
terest mounts up pretty fast, and
is better than what any savings
bank will pay. From a cold dol
lars and cents viewpoint, therefore,
the vet who doesn't need the money
right away should leave the money

1t Is Time to Act

Senator Taft'S announcement that ne
will vote for the European emergency aid
program in the recommended amount of
$5o7 900, 900 is suggestive of the dilemma
which confronts any intelligent man when
he weighs the merits of this program
against the alternatives that are open
to us.
Senator Taft began, early this month,
by saying that he was unalterably opposed
to the aid program in the amount proposed
by the administration. Later he voted to
reduce the authorized amount to $4O0,-
100000 But now he has come AROUND, and
one has only to read his statement to the
Senate last week to understand why.
The Ohio Senator, like a good many
other people, is troubled with mixed emo
tions in this matter. He thinks that the
policies of the Democratic administration
are partly responsible for the distress in
Europe. He is disturbed by the size of the
advances we have already made for the
relief of Europe. He does not like to place
an additional burden on our own economy
at time when it already is under severe
strain He looks with miSgivingS on the
procedures to be followed in financing the
emergency aid program, and he is skeptical
of both the ability and the willingness of
the European benefciaries to make the
best use of our assistance.
Still, when the long roll of his objections
has been called he cannot bring himself
to oppose the program. Balancing the pic
ture, he recognizes that a bad crop year
has had much to do with the distress in
Europe, and he is sensitive to the human
itarian aspects of the matter But beyond
that, and in his own words: ''If it (the
amount involved) is excessive, I think we
can take that into consideration in con-
nection with consideration of the long
amount of this particular aid is in any
way important as compared to the tre-
mendous effect at this time of assisting
these countries, in view of the present sit
uation existing with Russia"
In those words the Republican leader
gets down to the overriding consideration.
Every dispatch from France and Italy tells
us that the Communists have begun their
offensive. The time of decision in this
struggle between freedom and slavery will
come, not on some remote future day, but
in the next few weeks or months. For us
to daily around and hem and haw at doing
what we know we have to do merely
strengthens the hand of the Communists
and weakens the position of those who are
opposing them in Europe. 1t is time for us
to act-noW.
