 This does not mean that condi- tions are good in Italy, but if peo- pie have the money they can buy goods. Money makes no difference in England, the goods just aren't available.
 The Marshall plan for Europe will be a life-saver for England. It will help other willing countries as well, and it is good to know that the United States is not for getting its friends. Much Ameri- can money has been sunk in:o Italy, Romania and Bulgaria, all former enemy nations. A great amount, especially through UNR- RIA, has gone into Yugoslavia and Poland-countries which have proven ungrateful and unfriendly. In the United Nations and in the world press these nations, now turned Communist, are waging po- litical warfare against the democ- racies. They suffered from the war, but not more than Britain, and now Britain is being attacked by them as a fascist and warmon- ger nation.
 . Ii is good that the United States has developed the Marshall plan, and it is good that she has includ- ed the nations which fought by her side on the list of countries deserving of aid.

That's That
 By BRUCE GUSTIN

The United States would be dumb indeed to fall for the Soviet suggestion that both this country and Russia withdraw their troops from Korea and leave the Koreans to set up their own government. Such proposal from Moscow makes it certain the Russians are convinced they have so thorough ly organized the part of Korea they now occupy that any Korean government would be under their control. Russian troops, pulled back across the border, could move into Korea at any time. American forces, withdrawn across the Pacific, would be too far away to counter any hostile move.
 How can anyone enthuse over the plea of Chancellor Hutchins of the University of Chicago for "world government" If the United Nations experiment can't be made to work, there is no more chance of international unity on such a scheme. The Russians have their own notion about world government" and it is a Commun- ist dictatorship. That is an insur- mountable barrier to any plan for unifying all the nations of the earth.
 Henry Wallace wants to stop American farmers from feeding wheat to livestock so more wheat can be sent to Europe. The surest way to do this, he says in the New Republic, which he edits, "is for Congress to pass a law that will give the Commodity Credit corpo- ration the right to take over wheat from any farmer or grain dealer in the U. s. at not more than the price on Oct. 1, l947." He says there should also be law to pro- hibit the feeding of any except low grade wheat to livestock"
 It would be good idea for Wal lace to read the Constitution of the United States and try to find, If he can, where any such power Is vested in Congress. This isn't Soviet Russia. When Russian farmers baked at compliance with government decrees requiring them to turn their grain over to the government, those who didn't yield to Communist persuasion were shot. Such policy couldn't be employed in the United States

Slaves Of "DemOcracy''
(By Palmer Hoyt)


 A NEW MAP of terror has just been published It is map prepared by the editors of Plain Talk magazine, depicting slave labor camps in the Soviet Union
 The map and its accompanying text prepared from nearly OOO affdavits and crude drawings most of them made by Polish slave laborers who were re- leased the Russians in their scheme to swallow Poland The editors claim IA million persons are in Soviet slave labor camps under the administration of GULAG charactrzed Slavery, Inc They say that since the end of the war million Japanese war prisoners one million Germans and million repatriated Russian prs- oners have been added to GULAGs pile of flesh They state that all territory controlled by GULAG were to be consolidated it would make an area exceeding the size of all western Europe.
 In these camps which dot Rusia like the foul bloches of eprosy the inmates perortedy die at the of 12 per cent each year Disgraced Russian generals ques- tonlng lnteigentsia and Communist expatrateS rub fleshes shoulders with Japanese and German prisoners The editors say the documents file to prove this picture of horror The western mind may find this hard to grasp but hard to believe the story of the Nazi concentration camps, hard to believe Belsen and Dachau
 We know these facts: Well over a million Japanese prisoners somewhere in the Soviet Union. Nearly million Germans still somewhere in Russia. There is to believe that this picture not substan- taly true, either from the disappearance of these the general practices of the Soviets
 And while the Soviets keep millions fettered work ing and starving they prate of the Soviet democ to slave and die While they practice slavery they talk about terrible conditions in Mississippi about violation of national sovereignty and violation of the human right to live.
 The authors say the map is understatement Even if it is gross exaggeraon the simple existence of slave labor camps challenges the Soviet right sit table and discuss democracy or human rights.

mander wouldn't agree and the air forces top had third idea Result-three loggerheaded programs to accomplish objective and tremendous increase in cost.
 On one occasion an army commander wanted to move some of his troops from island to another. He ferred with the naval head Plans were made to begin the transfer specific date At the last minute the another field of operations The ground troops left stranded Through forest of military red tape which stretched all the way to Washington the troops eventually moved The delay costly both in money and morale.
 In other instances the air forces and ground troops were to blame As long the various commands equal and divided there no hope for full coopera- ton. Tradition of pride in each outfit too great. But supreme commander put stop to all that nonsense And the record of General Twinng indicates he is just the type of officer who will to it after uni
 caton is given every chance to succeed in his theater General Twning will make his headquarters at An chorage, where Alaskan wartime operations defense headquarters set up Naval headquarters at Kod- ak at the head of the Aleutian chain will be maintained but under the supreme command of the air forces three star general.
 For months now, units of the famed B29 Superforts and other outfits, have moved in relays to Alaska. Ground forces, too, have trained in Operation W- waw and other But it is the air forces pro- gram which getting the most attention from Washing {, ton.
 Washington could have designated ground forces general or an admiral as supreme Alaskan commander Instead, an AAF man named. The significance of that is obvious. The air is the first line of defense today just the navy in the centuries before.
 With too little money and too few men, the air forces backed up by the ground troops and navy preparing | this nations northern line of defense
