Foreigr- Aid and Its Effects

rOTe1SI- AlQ ana It's 6HeCtS
An understanding Of human ma.
ture will tell us that when we stop
giving aid to European nations,
most OF the countries there will be-
come angry at us. The more aid you
give to an individual and the longer
you give it, the more disgruntled he
becomes when you stop. This seems
to be true Of nations. Naturally, now
that we have limited at little less
liberaGty toward Europe, some
have yelled selfish and "unsym-
pathetic" at us.
The more VIC give and the longer
we give it, the greater will grow
this scorn toward the giver. When
finally we have to stop the flow of
our money toward Europe, anger
will be the reaction. That was true
after World War I. America had
been very liberal, but when aid was
halted, up went the tariff barriers.
England campaigned: Buy Within
the Empire" Depression followed.
What Results:
Following World War II, America
again has been extremely liberal.
We have spent some 10 billion dol
lars during each Of the past two
years. Help we gave to England
during the war and since will total
nearly 40 billion dollars. We have
not been stingy with our food, our
goods. nor our dollars, although this
drain on our resources has helped
to make things tougher for the aver
age American breadwinner.
All the Lend-Leasc, all the UN-
MIRA relief, all the goods, all the
dollars-what are the results? Eng
land is not even on her feet, much
less Europe. The crises seem to
mount, with England right now fac
ing her greatest crisis since the
war. All of these facts must lead us
to re-study our aid to Europe and
the possible effect of continuing
handouts to so many outstretched
palms.
Europe's Problem
Obviously, we cannot keep on Civ
ing at the rate OF 10 billion dollars q
year to Europe for the next ten,
twenty, or thirty years. Then what
can we do? 1t is plain common
sense that the best thing we can do
is to help Europe figure out how she
can help herself. We must help Eu-
rope to get up on her own feet and
off the necks of American taxpay-
ers. That is the only kind of aid that
will ever be worth much to Europe.
The sooner We get Europe to
thinking in terms Of helping herself,
the better it will be for all of US. We
might send her food and money till
doomsday, but it would only make
America poor and would not make
Europe rich. Europe must under
stand that the problem of rehabili-
tation is har own problem, first Of
all, and not entirely ours. We must
try to re-educate Europe in the prin-
ciples Of American enterprise and
initiative. Hard work and self-de.
pendence are among those first
principles.
Europe needs production. We can
supply machinery ON the basis that
1t may be paid for with goods pro-
duced. We can keep down our trade
barriers and buy from Europe. Only
in that way can those nations get on
their feet and buy from us. There
are definite ways to help war-torn
Europe without imposing the seri-
Gus injury Of continued, outright
aid. The sooner our help gets on this
basis, the better for everybody.

UCC Paid Nearly SO
Million In Benefits
To Unemployed

Nearly nine million dollars found
its way into Montana trade channels
during 1916 through civilian and vet
eran unemployed and self-employed
payments. Although S7,850,00O of the
amount was paid through the Unem-
ployment Compensation Commission
of Montana, only $1,015, 900 or roughly
one out of every nine dollars was paid
from the Montana unemployment
trust fund created from the state tax
on employers.
Mostly Federal Funds
The Commission acting as admins
trative agent for the Veterans Admin
istration paid to veterans $6,796OO0,
all of which was reimbursed by fed
eral funls. Of the amount $2,892603
went to self-employed veterans whose
enterprises showed net earnings of
less than 500 per month during each
month for which they were compen-
stated and unemployed veterans re-
ceived $3,9O3,42O during the year
Other States Contribute
In addition an estimated $1,040,000
was paid to Montana unemployed
from the trust funds of other states
(mostly California Oregon, Utah and
Washington. Most of these payments
went to Montanans who worked in
war industries in those states and
then returned to Montana to re-estab- |

Federal Land Bank
In Spokane Open
Thirty Years
More Than $500 Loans Have
Been Made During
Period

Thirty years ago today March "a,
1917, the Federal Land Bank of Spo-
kane opened its doors for business.
During this 30-year period the bank
has closed around 76500 loans for a
total of more than S290,000000. In
Montana its loan volume has exceeded
$62 100000, according to r. E. Brown,
president.
Born during World war I and
boomtime Invitations and depression
Universities, the bank has taken all
obstacles in stride and has emerged
from the second World war period in
the strongest financial position in its
history said Brown. "As of March
1, 1947 the banks capital stock, owned
by its borrowers through II local CO.
operative national farm loan associa-
tions in Idaho, Montana. Oregon and
Washington, stood at $2,959,000, while
its surplus and reserves exceeded $1O,-
100000.
The federal land bank system was
created under the federal farm loan
act of 1916, Brown explained. This
act, passed by congress after many
years of study and investigation, came
at time when American agriculture |
was clamoring for a source of depend
able and adaptable credit.
All Government Money
Repaid In Full
Although the Spokane bank was
originally capitalized by the federal
government and the government con-
tributed to its surplus during the de-
preston of the early thirties, every
dime of government money has been
repaid in full" said Brown. "In addi-
ton to providing a source of depend
able credit and having an established
policy of assisting worthy borrowers
through lean crop years, the bank has
pioneered lower interest rates, small
annual and semi-annual repayments,
liberal prepayment privileges and fu-
ture payment reserves"
