RUSSIAN COMPLEX

Senator Claude Pepper denies he has
performed an "about-face" regarding the
Marshall Plan He points out that in June
he said he would vote for the plan when
it comes up in the senate, and me has not
changed his decision.
But, he adds, he fav0rs giving aid to
Russia and her "so-called satellites"
Pepper has been in Russia, and it is
hard for The Citizen to understand his
benign attitude toward that, country He
knows that the press is not free in Russia,
lheiknbWs that free speech is muzzled, he
knows that if Russian newspaper dared
to criticize Stain, as papers sometimes in
the United States take President Truman
to task, everybody in the Russian newspa-
per yoffice who had anything to do with
attacking Stain would be thrown into Jail,
or probably sent to a prison camp in 81
IBERIA or executed.
Pepper knows that the way of life in
Russia is not in accord with the doctrine
of freedom as we understand it in this
country. Russians are afraid of their own
shadows, so far as their talking about
their dictatorial government is concerned.
They know that the Kremln strikes often
and strikes hard against anybody who
dares to challenge its authority.
The r. ussian Iron Curtain is not
mere. figure of speech. Russia wants to
know what is going ON elsewhere in the
world but keeps the outside world from
learning anything about Russia. Russian
Representatives in the United Nations, par
|aieularly Vishinsky, have lied about high
officials in the United States, and Pepper
knows they lied.
In the face of those and other truths
about the sneaky, scheming Russian lead
ers, The Citizen is unable to determine
why Pepper is so concerned about Russia
and her satellites.

THREE ACRES PER PERSON

Since it requires about three acres of
good land to provide each person with
food and clothing Eat an average" stand
ard of living, the agricultural economists
are wondering whether the people of the
United States appreciate the importance
of maintaining soil fertility.
The latest census figures place the
population of the nation at 144,239. 900
persons. The Soil Conservation Service
says there are only about 100000, 900
acres of good crop land left in the coun-
try. This leaves present reserve of about
81, 000, 900 acres of land that will not be
damaged by continuous use provided good
farming methods are practiced.
The population experts believe h a. t
the nation will have I47,5OO,0OO persons
by 1850 and this means, if our farmlands
are depleted by erosion and over-use that.
mf 1850, for the first time, the available
good crop land will fall below the AVERAGE
OF three acres per person.
While it is highly important for the
nation to make every effort to sustain its
agriculture, which is basic to prosperity
in time of peace and abundance in time
of war, the development of a peaceful
world will make it possible for future
residents of the United States to import
whatever food they may require.

sEcRETARY KRuG ON RESOURCES

/ The Secretary of the Interior admits
that he is more than ever impressed with
the extraordinary difficulty of reviewing
the problem of national resources and for
eign aid In proper perspective" He OBJ
serves that 'the need for the conservation
of our raw material sources is greater
than ever before
His Rersonal and official views seem
to be very sintelligently expressed, and
while he favors aid to foreign nations he
does not skip what he believes to be his
duty in calling attention to some of the
vital questions that are involved. in the
United States policy. He said: "It lis self.
evident that even a country as wealthy in
resources As the United States can not
long undsrwrite the material deficits of
other nations sywithopt. serious impacts
upon its economy and its resources"

CORPORATION PROFITS ,BooMIkt

Corporation profits, during the first
half of l947, swere more than those of the
last quarter sof 1916. This is the report of
the Commerce Department, which de-
clared that current rates of profits, after
taxes. are ':.mnch higher sin relation to to-
tai income than during the war years,
when they were held down by the since
repealed Excess Profits Tax.
In addition, profits before taxes repre-
sent about the same proportion of total
income now las in the booming year of
1929, after elimination of inventory profit.
BY inventory profits one means the dollar
value increase in stocks on hand as a. re-
suit of rising prices.
The corporate profit picture is not uni
form, however, with some industries not
sharing the rosy prospects of most manu-.
featuring companies, whose profits 's.tend.
] ed to, move sup in the first halt, of this
!. year" compared with the last quarter OF
/. 1946. Railroad profits are far below the
war years, air transportation took a loss
general merchandise corporations had {
profit decline and profits of the telephon.
industry and food and kindred products
\ showed substantial decline from the
first quarter sof this year.

gers are all but thrown from
, the car, but somehow they man
age to hang on, and screaming
and yelling they hit the high
i way.
/ A few minutes later, a quiet
residential section is disturbed
by screaming sirens. Ambulan-
ces and police cars are on their
| way to another accident. A
crowd is gathering around an
other wreck. Injured are being
PLAYED on stretchers. Police are
taking names of witnesses.
| It all happened SO quick, and
no one seems able to tell just
what did occur. A man in a
shiny new car had just gotten
a green light and started across
the intersection. AT that mo-
ment an old jalopy, packed with
kids came carening down the
street. The boy at the wheel,
either did not see the light
lchange or he thought he could
beat it.
Two automobiles were tang
led mass of wreckage. Four
people-two girls, boy and
Dad were in the hospital. Bill
was in the norgue. Five fami-
lies We're stricken by this tragic
occurrence. Hospital bills. morti-
clans fees, doctor bills, garage
charges and lawyers fees piled
up. The personal and financial
loss of everyone involved was
staggering.
So what - it was just another
accident. They happen evs.rv'
day. But they always happen to
OTHER people, you say. Don't
be too sure. 1t CAN happen to
you.
The new Motor Vehicle Res
possibility Law will help re-
duce accidents. More frequent
inspections of cars hould be
required. Every motorist should
have his car fully insured and
every motorist should be- legal
ly responsible for his acts. Re
member OTHER people have all
the accidents, and YOU are
"other people" to the rest of the
world when you have yours,
Drive. carefully.

Mr.. C. VanLeuven managed the
plant on behalf of The Whitney
interests.
"It is a fact that a fine grade
of fibre was manufactured for up
holstry purposes, and the mating
was considered useful, as well as
attractive in appearance, but the
enterprise was abandoned be-
cause of the high cost of produc-
ton.
"These products were made OF
needles from Long Leaf Pine trees,
and were treated with a soda solu-
ton in order to reduce the needles
to a fibre. 1t is not known to me
what eventually became of the
machinery, which consisted of
watts, carders, spinners and looms.
Zone interesting feature of the
plant is that it was electrically
lighted as early as the 1905. The
operation was a source of interest
among manufacturers throughout
the country because it was the
only one of its kind in existence.
Incidentally, my father de-
veloped much of the machinery
used in manufacturing these pro-
ducts, and patent rights were in
his name"
