IT'S WONDERFUL:
Long Time Peace

Announcing the immediate aboH-
ton of capital punishment in Rus
sia, Soviet authorities explained the
move on the grounds that it was
made possible by Russia's growing
strength, the peoples patriotism
and the certainty of peace ''for
long time.'
Said the Moscow radio: 1.-The in
ternational situation during the
time after Germany's capitulation
and Japanis capitulation shows that
the cause of peace can be consid-
cred secure for long time in spite
of attempts by aggressive elements
to provoke war;
Meanwhile, H e r. b ert Hoover
looked on the other side of the mask
to charge Russia with attempting
to bleed the United States through
relief channels and blaming her for
the economic paralysis of japan
and Germany.
He declared that futher relief will
remain necessary as long as the
Soviets continue their obstructionist
tactics and demands for repara-
tions, thus blocking peace treaties
with the two countries and keeping
their economies paralyzed.

the reduction directs a sharp cut
at the interests of the American
farm family and the general well
fare" Anderson said that the
greatest harm" would be to the
soil conservation program, the
farm price support program and
programs designed to help veterans
and low income families become
better established.
The 80 per cent cut would elimi-
nate the Agriculture Adjustment
administration by July 1, 1948. Cur
rently, the AAA is carrying on its
basic program of promoting soil
conservation on 3,500,000 cooperat-
ing farms by paying farmers for
following practices intended to in
crease soil fertility and, hence, to
increase production. The proposed
fund slash would mean that farm
ers this year would be paid about
so per cent Of what they previously
had been promised.
In answering the criticism, the
house appropriations committee
said that its recommended cuts are
"selective" and reasonable-based
on actual farm needs.

HOUSING:
UnfOunded Hope

Popular belief that any substan-
tial reductions in the cost Of new
housing will occur in the near fu-
ture is not founded on realities.
That assertion was made by
James c. Downs Jr., president Of
the Real Estate Research corpora
ton, who explained that besides
being geared to high national
debt, housing costs, like prices Of
other hard goods, are directly af-
fected by the large demand for
American capital and production by
other countries.
1.-The housing shortage today is
worse than year ago." he said,
"and it will continue to grow pro-
gressively worse for some time"
He pointed out that increased
earning power has put a greater
number in the market for new
homes, but at the same time build
ers are afraid to start new con-
struction because of high costs. The
theory that prices would drop kept
many persons from buying or build
ing homes last year, Downs said.

Controls Necessary in Food Crisis
Export-Import Regulations
Vital for Curing World Ills
BY BAUKHAGE
NetOs Analyst and Commentator.

culties. 1t is impossible to estimate
the destruction in terms Of what
has happened to social and political
values.
AS to point two, that becomes
concrete issue which ought to be
in, debate before these lines are
printed; namely, the question of ex-
tending certain wartime controls
over exports and imports.
Briefly, if export controls go off.
foreign nations can bid against each
other for food. Wheat, for example.
That will send the price Of wheat
skyrocketing. What does that
mean? In the first place it means
the country with the most money
gets the most wheat. regardless Of
it's need. Others go hungry. 1t
means the American taxpayer will
have tc pay a fancy price for the
wheat the government buys. It
means extra American dol ar s
which coued be used to buy other
American products, which would
encourage production, will be
sucked cat of foreign pockets and
world trade will be stultified by just
that mdch. That is on argument
for extending controls on exports.
Fortunately there are also lot Of
"selfish-interest" reasons for con-
trolling some exports. It's this way:
The man who extracts oil from soy
beans, although he is quite willing
to have his oil exported. probably
can sell it here anyway. But he
doesn't want beans from which he
gets the oil sent out Of the country.
The man who refines the oil doesn't
mind having his refined product ex-
ported but he doesn't want the un-
refined oil (his raw materiaD,
which he has to buy, exported; the
man who uses that refined oil to
make margarine doesn't want to
compete with foreigners for it, al
though he's quite willing to have
foreigners buy his margarine.
These mixed motives don't add up
to very good argument for con-
gress, because the only controls de-
sired are for the other fellow. It
doesn't generate too much pressure
because there are enough "agins"
to balance the ''furs."
But when it comes to imports, it's
a different story. Take fertilizer.
Britain and the United States,
straining to increase production,
now are using twice as much fer
tilizer as in prewar years. That is
all right. But the destitute Euro
pean countries with their very tired
soil need every ounce they can get
and if there were no import con-
trolls they would get less-the rich
buyers would get more. The pres
sure on congress is all against limit
ing importation of fertilizer.
Some imports into America are,
of course, highly desirable-to get
those American dollars abroad in
order that foreign nations may buy
raw materials and other things. But
if we are to keep the rest Of the
markets alive until they can feed
themselves, what we give out and
what we take in will have to be
made to fit the needs of the situation,
not the desires of the American busi-
nessman who doesn't realize that if
he is given too free a hand he'll be
cutting off his own nose with it.

Humanity Is at the Crossroads

It has been shown that animals,
when they master technology. tend
to form a perfectly regimented, to-
talitarian state. Take the ants and
the bees. They long ago were able
to do what Hitler planned and had
begun to practice-change the ma
ture of species, not only by creating
a special environment for the young
but also by feeding it certain foods.
The bees carefully segregate
tlee babies (the eggs) and by
feeding them three different
menus produce three different
classes, the workers, the drOnes
and the queen. Hitler had we'll
worked-out theories for produc-
ing a slave-class by feeding the
children certain vitamins, with
holding others, wedding out all
those undesired by the Nazi
state, feeding and training .
ruling class (Fuehrerprinzip).
And now, the followers Of Marxist.
Leninism are set up to carry out the
principle.

ly was he back from the Golden
Gate when he was ordered to Pots
dam. He already has become our
''fyingest'' chief executive. The
Mexican trip was scarcely over
when he was called to the wearying
vigil at his mothers bedside.
Meanwhile he has conducted
White House business without en-
countering too much criticism for
being absent without leave. In fact,
his popularity with the public has
grown.
But at this writing some OF his
followers are growing little res
tive about what they call his appar-
ent neglect of certain issues which
ought to be brought emphatically
before the public.
What was considered a crisis in
world affairs was met successfully
by overwhelming congressional
support for the post-UNRRA relief
and Greek-Turkish aid bills. Al
though at times it has balanced
upon a rather thin edge, the Solidar-
ity of bipartisan foreign policy has
been maintained. But there is an
other matter which those most
concerned declare has not been
brought home to the public - the'
world food situation.
There are two important facts:
L. Two years have passed
since the end of the war and
the world food situation is no
better.
2. Although congress (the peo-
ple) has been willing to vote
huge funds for relief, it appears
unwilling to continue certain
controls on business, without
which the machinery for help
ing the stricken countries to
their feet will break down.
The first job is to bring home the
seriousness of point one. The second
job (Which has been dumped into
the Presidents lap) is to convince
congress of the importance of point
two.
Press and radio have been asked
to help with the first job. They are
trying. Here's one small contribu-
ton: In terms of dollars the de-
struction caused by World War II
was seven times that of World War
l., Recovery is, therefore, at least
seven times as hard. Economic diff
ficulties are multiplied more than

TRAVEL PAY:

10 per cent increase in basic pas

The change will boost one-way
passenger rates from % to rs

increase of about IS per cent in

In granting the increase, ICC

Two reports in the news recently
caused some interesting comments
in Washington on the international
situation.
Charles Reese, extension aplarlst
of University Of Ohio, recently re-
ported that because of the late sea-
son and resultant scarcity Of pollen
on which bees feed, many Of the
drones (who do not work and are
preserved for social purposes only)
have been pushed out of the hives
by the workers. Picket lines have
been formed and the drones are not
allowed to re-enter. They die in the
damp and cold.
Theirs (the bees') is not very
pleasant society,"" says aplarlst
Reese. Hive activity is communls-
tic and utterly ruthless.

official comment. Visson said:
1.-THE world has indeed entered
into a contest between American
ism and Communism"
This pearl Of wisdom laid beside
the dispatch from Columbus moved
a certain inengineer-economist-philos-
opher to the observations which
follow:
For the first time, this pundit
pointed out, the human race is
really at the crossroads. Life has
followed two paths, one taken by
the animals, another by those who
have in them something that dis
tinguishes them from the beast. One
path has been clearly visible to ma
terialistic philosophers, Nietzsche,
Hegel, Marx and the monster who
was created out of their theories,
Hitler. The other is the one illu-
mined by the thought and action OF
