TO dr00C0, IOr UOCn military
and rehabilitation purposes.
The $100,000,000 gift to the
Turks will be used for strictly
military operations. Reaction
of the totalitarian Turkish regime to
passage of the Truman proposal, one
may surmise from UP press reports,
is much the same as that of the
tabled cat licking it's chops after hav-
ing done away with the household
canary.
The Turks, who, for a century have
been known for their breaking treaties
of friendship, and for their treachery
toward erstwhile allies, have made no
bones about their plans for putting
the 500 million American iron men
to work. No stree, on no less author
ity than Dictator Ismet Inonu, they're
going to proceed to build a mighty
middle east military machine, thanks
to the generosity of the American
taxpayer. Known through the ages for
their ability as traders, it may not be
too much to surmise that should
Russia, or any other power, come
along and raise the ante-say to $500
million-that the Turks overnight, or
just as soon as they had collected the
entire 500 million from good old
Uncle Sammy, would become just as
strong an ally to some other major
power, in opposition to the U.S.A
One needs only to recall the history
of World War | in particular, and
World War II to a somewhat lesser
degree, to appreciate how quickly
and ruthlessly the Turks can flop from

one side to the other on the inter
national scene.
So far as checking communism in
Turkey is concerned-that seems an
extremely minor matter-since there
just "ain't' any such animal out of
captivity in the land of the Ottomans.
Reports are, unbelievable as it may
seem, the average Turk has even
less knowledge about what a commu-
mist really is than the average DOGGY
man shy American.
The Greeks Reaction
The Greeks, long known for their
cleverness in the field of information
al diplomacy international treachery,
possibly a better term for it,, are not
quite as frank on how they shall dis
pose of the $500 million so kindly
proffered by an extremely wealthy
uncle in the western hemisphere Re-
ports are, however, that left to their
own devices much of the military por-
ton of the loan will be employed in
a cleansing" operation of a lot of
Greek nationals who have consistent
ly refused to permit themselves par
ticipation in the fruits of 'democ-
racy' as presently practiced by the
Observation-Disclosures government.
Montana Delegation Votes
Party line cleavage on the part of
Montanas congressional delegation
was most apparent in both the senate
and the house. Senator Murray and
representative D'Ewart both voted
against this most ill-advised measure.
Senator Ecton and Representative
Mansfield voted for it.

Appropriations for development of
the west are in danger again.
Isn't it about time that the west
began to submit its development prof.
ects to congress as parts of a plan,
instead of submitting them in barrels?
Ex-Governor Ralph Carr of Colorado
said in appearances against the pro-
posed MVA last year that the only
thing IVA has had better than the
west is a formula for getting large
appropriations.
e. B. Debler of the Bureau of Rec
lamation cracked, after a debate on
MVA, that the only thing IVA has
better than his bureau is its publicity
men.
They were both right, but wrong.
What IVA had land has) is basic,
integrated and intelligent overall plan
for the development of a region, its
resources, economy and human we'll
being That makes it easy for the
publicity men to obtain public under
standing of TWAS purposes. And that
clear understanding made it relatively
easy for IVA to get appropriations to
get it's construction job done in about
II years.
Out here in the west we pitch a
flock of unrelated and unintegrated
plans into two barrels and roll them
ND to congress. The barrels are the
Interior and Army appropriations

Bamboozling the People
"For instance, Congressman Jones,
of Ohio, has declared that
with the unexpended balance avail
able for the Bureau of Reclamation,
the funds appropriated this year will
be sufficient to assure a sound rec
lamation program. Mr.. Jones is sim

will find it extremely difficult
to attach the "red label" to it,
and the features provided in
the resolution definitely max

Canada. Canada will also share

This was agreed to in the Canadian
American agreement effected March
49, 1941, and is part of the Vanden
berg senate resolution.
While it is admitted that construc-

flying against each other. The whole
thing smells of pork.
Pork? Certainly
AS matters now stand, the principle
proponents of western appropriations
are:
1. Bureaucrats, those volume of jobs
and Army brass are at stake
2. Contractors, who launched the
Missouri Valley Development AS
ISOLATION headed by John B.
Quinn of Lincoln, who goes from
one contractors association meet
ing to another promising pork
with gravy if they support his
particular association.
g. Land Spectators, who want to
irrigate large dry land holdings
and make a private killing on
publicly impounded waters.
4. Governors, who rush in when
there is trouble and try to save
some pork pie to exhibit to the
home folks at the next election
5. Finally, a few sincere citizens
who see larger issues and sup
port the appropriations, hoping
that the projects can ultimately
be fitted into a useful, efficient
pattern.
1t was the aforementioned John B.
Quinn who said in Denver last Janu-
ary at the state contractors associa-

F10q6 Relief Cut Unless
Senate Boosts Funds

Unless the Senate adds $282, ,000
to the House appropriation for
grants in assistance to Washington
needy persons on relief will have
their allowances cut 10 per cent
starting in September. an official of
the Board of Public Welfare said
yesterday.
The allowance for those on relief
now is based on the 1912 cost of
living, he pointed out. and there
may be great hardship if an ad-
ditional sum is not granted.
The social work staff of the We'll
fare Department is reviewing the
cases on hand with view to taking
some of the less needy of the re-
lief lists.
In the estimates sent to Congress
the board had asked for $1,999 900
for grants in assistance, but after
protracted hearings the subcommit-
tee reduced this figure to 1894 900
and the House passed the bill with
the cut.
At the meeting of the Board of
Public Welfare last month, Ray
mond F.. Clapp, principal assistant
to the director, was ordered to ask
the Senate to increase the amount
originally asked by $217 900, with the
statement that this was the mini
mum with which they could operate
Some of the items which the We'll
fare Department is considering cut
ting from relief rolls is money for
medical aid and special diets and
extra allowances for rents.
