European Relief
Seattle Post-Intelligencer)

Seattle Post-Intelligencer)
 THE ECONOMIC SURVEY conducted in Austria by former President Hoover shows the relief needs of that war-blighed country are desperately urgent It also diScloSes the real of the tragic situation
 Although the victorious Allied nations, including Rus sia had agreed at PotSdam that only actual German properties in Austria to be held subject to repara ions seizure the unhappy country has been rendered industrially and agriculturally destitute.
 The true picture in Austria is of Russia enrchng herself at the expense of the Austrian people, leaving the hapess population to starve to be sustained by foreign relieargely of course at the expense of the United States.
 Hence, in sustaining the impoverished Austrans the United States is simply paying separations to Russia
 In Austria, reports MT. Hoover, the Russians "have not only requstOned large amount of fertile land but great number of industrial plants with the result that he full of American is being brought into play which increases the burden upon taxpay ers."
 Similarly in Germany the Russian policy of punder and despoaton has been pursued ultimately and prn- cipaly at American expense.
 In Italy, the separations finally agreed upon for the benefit of Russia established the major part the relief burden which the American people must carry and pay for.
 Even in other countries, such as Greece and Turkey where the Russians have lacked the opportunity to drain off resources separations, they have medded in pol- tics brazeny and menacingy that American relief seems necessary and perhaps mandatory.
 Russia Is shrewdly and ruthlessly making middlemen out of the hungry and destitute people of Europe for enemies and allies ake-pathetic and tragic peo- pes standing the middle between Russian spoliaton on the one hand and American mercy on the other
 There can be real solution, Mir Hoover says ddly and almost despairingly, until there is peace treaty which entirely frees Austrian economy to pro- duce and export
 How can there be a solution anywhere in Europe as long Russia puts freedom punder above interna tiOnal sovereignty and human welfare?

 posed upon their country. Since
 the beginning of time, people have
 been blaming everybody but them selves for the consequences of
 their own acts. Adams alibi for eating the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden was that Eve gave # to him. And her excuse was that the serpent beguiled me"
 There is an interesting contrast
 in the division of separations ex- acted by the Allies from Hitler's satellites under the peace terms | imposed on Italy, Bulgaria, Hun gary, Romania and Finland. Of the one billion 330 million dollars which these five countries are called upon to pay, Soviet Russia is to get 900 millions. The United States winch was the arsenal, gran ary and treasury for the Allies gets nothing.
 The compromise proposed by Senators Millikin of Colorado and Vandenberg of Michigan, and ac- cepted by the state department, should avert serious tariff fight in the present Congress. Under this plan, an escape clause" will be written into future trade agree ments. It will provide for cancella- ton by either government of any tariff concesson which results in serious injury to domestic produc- CTS. That seems fair enough. The principal reason for tariff is pro- lection of home industry. Where tariff reductions can be made with out hurting domestic production, they should be granted to promote international trade.
 It is to the credit of many Demo- cratic Congressmen that they have joined with House Republicans in voting to restore the name of for mer President Hoover to the dam on the Colorado river. The action of former secretary of interior Ickes in ordering that the dam be called Boulder dam" instead }of Hoover dam" was a lowdown, de- spicable trick.
 There never was any excuse flor the name Boulder dam" after the structure was built. When the prtoj- ect was being debated in Congr4ss, the dam usually was referred tq as Boulder" or Boulder Cahon dam." That was because it first was thought the dam would Noe built in Boulder canon. But it 1as constructed in Black canon. A{nd
 in recognition of the import3 mi
 role played by Hoover Congress-
 in five appropriation bills, referre&
 to the dam as Hoover dam."
 When Franklin D. Roosevelt ac-
 cepted the first Democratic nomin-
 ation for the Presidency in 1882.
 he told the American people that
 "government-federal and state
 and local-costs too much" Gov-,
 ernment then was costing about 13
 billion dollars a year. Local govj
 ernment cost little less than (
 and one-half millions; state, tw
 and one-fourth billions; and fed I
 eral, less than 4 and one-half bI l
 lions. In l946, the American 'peo,. pie paid out more than 46 billionS
 in taxes of which local govern
 ment got billions, the states 4 and
