Soviet Union The whole picture
presents factors that would make it
unwise for us to do anything in the
Middle East.
AS for the Greeks, in less than two
years since Germany surrendered,
Greece has been given in goods and
money $3.50 million from UNRRA,
and we have been the largest contrib
utors to UNRRA. The Greek govern
ment is corrupt We, democracy,
have no business supporting royal
government imported into Athens
from London. There is "claptrap"
about the Greeks having fought the
Germans The Greeks of the noun
tains are different from the Greeks
of the plains. The Greeks of the
Mountains fought the Germans; the
Greeks of the plains laid down with
out a fight. Now we propose to arm
and train the Greeks of the plains to
resist the men who actually did fight
the Germans
Greece is surrounded by Romania,
Bulgaria, Albania, Yugoslavia, all of
which are now under communistic
government, and probably of their
own choice. To put wedge of few
American officers and $50 million dol
lars in Greece, is simply to consign
those officers to immediate death if
there should be war, and if peace re-
mains, to tax American farmers to
10 will
use it to buy Ukrainian wheat.
The same picture presents itself in
the Orient. There are 100 million
Chinese communists. Should Tru-
mans administration provoke war
with Russia, Russia would arm these
communists, and they would overrun
China as fast as a coolie could lead
a horse cart with food and ammuni-
ton.
A Sensible Place To Begin
The place to fight communism is at
home, by increasing the purchasing
capacity of the working class, by
bringing our government expenditures
down to a sensible budget, and re-
ducing the outstanding currency not
based on gold or silver, or anything
else The price of sensible stocks
has fallen off from an average of 1914
a year ago to an average of 63 week
ago.
Our system is dying by inches.
There is hysteria about Saving
Greece, the cradle of our civilization"
The literature of Homer and the Age I
If Pericles was copied and stolen by
he Romans of the Age of the Anton
mes. The paintings of Zeuxis have
to time; the statuary of
he School of Praxitles a 100 years
lgo was bought or stolen by Lord FL
gin. 1t is in the British museum
Known as the Elgin marbles. Lord
Byron fought for Greece, saw only
reachery; immortalized his disillu-
zion by
"The Isles of Greece, the Isles of
Greece, where burning Sappho loved
and sung, where grew the arts of
war and peace, where DeIos rose
and Phoebe sprung. Eternal sum-
mer glds them yet, but all except

Its toss-up between Shobo Fujii of To-
kuda Drug and Isao Nishmura of Lotus
Troys," replied one ardent Nisei hoop follower
when we asked him who he thought was the
catch of the year.
Shobo and Isao-there is no question about
it--were the two outstanding players in the Nj
sci Community Basketball League.
Shobo is the spectacular one He dribbles,
passes and shoots la Hank Luisetti of Stan
ford University fame He is smooth as any inn
ported japanese silk, and he definitely is a
conner Whether he will surpass his older broth
er, Joe, who still is THE hoopster, is hard to
forecast This much we could be sure of: Shobo
has all the earmarks of belonging in the ranks of
Nisei cage greats.
Isao is the cool, fast-breaking type He is
not a fancy galloper but he is threat each time
he gets his mitts on the melon. He lacks Shobo's
showmanship on the floor, but every Troy mem
Der will swear that he is grade IA in the all-im-
pOrtant matter of plucking shots off the back
board. Because he played on weak quintet
Isao had to cut out huge chunk of work for
himself by supplying both the offensive and de-
fensive punch.
The catch of the year? Shobo is an amazing
lad but Isao is our choice. Who can ignore Isao
who almost singehandedly boosted a shaky
Troy squad into the Northwest Times Invita-
tional Basketball Tournament?

move for about 10 hours yesterday.
On the 45-mile drive to the Hotel

lillian President Dutra, he got a
look at Brazilian agriculture and
occasionally glimpsed oxen furnish
ing motive power for farm equip
ment.
He also covered 30 miles of wicked
mountain roads, with low-hanging
clouds at time making visibility zero,
as his car traversed twisting road
on the edge of precipitous cliffs.
Pauses Briefly for Speech.
He stopped at the conference only
a little longer than the time needed
for the speech, which was made under
circumstances emphasizing anew the
barrier raised in the Americas by
language differences. Few in the
audience understood English and
had to follow the President with
the aid of printed texts translated
into Portuguese, Spanish and
French.
The applause during the reading
was light, but one demonstration
came when Mr.. Truman made an
oblique attack on Russian politics
and said the United States intends
to discharge it's obligations under
the United Nations Charter and
does not intend to let others forget
theirs.
Aboard the battleship Missouri
Mr.. Truman was host to the con-
ference delegates, shook hands with
guests and made a brief speech, with

she commented.
Farmers Pictured as Angry.
Mayor Humphrey of Minneapolis
said the farmers are angry because
the Republican Congress was sab
otaging the Federal farm program
of the Democratic administration.
THE Republican, dominated Con-
gress," he said, has returned to
its old policies of double dealing
with the farmer-plenty of talk and
little action" He said the Repub-
licans had cut the appropriation for
the rural identification program so
that $4,000 farmers. who other
wise would have had electricity this
year, will be without it. And he
added that the Soil Conservation
Service had been hurt by the false
economy program Of the Repub-
LEANS.
Senator Sparkman, a member Of
the Senate committee handling
housing legislation, complained that
the Republicans had done nothing
to help relieve the housing shortage.
President Truman" he said, had
an all-out housing program which
was giving the veterans break.
Building materials were channeled
to 60 into homes for the veterans
instead Of - into office buildings,
bowling alleys and night clubs. But
the real estate lobby didn't like it..
The Republican Congress went
along, and finally the last bit Of
help to the veterans ended in the
phoney rent control bill"
Truman Support Reported.
Senator Myers declared the peo-
pie of Pennsylvania overwhelmingly
approve the policies and programs
of President Truman.
They are for him--they think
he should run in 1948," said Senator
Myers. They say they will vote for
him If he does" Last year, he said

Ninety million people could have
voted in 1946," Mr. Sullivan said.
But nearly 10000, 900 of them failed
to vote. Twenty million votes took
Congress away from the people and
gave il to the Republicans"

.0'NeiI Explains Legion
Refusal 10 Take Stand
On Housing Measure.
By the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 3.-Action of
the American Legion National Con-
vention in Withholding official sup
port of the t-Ellender- Wagner
Housing bill doesn't mean the Le-
gion won't fight for adequate hous-
ing" James F. O'Neil; the Legion s
new commander, says.
Legion delegates refused to take
stand favoring the bill introduced
in the 80th Congress to provide
Federal subsidies for home building
and other aids to housing, although
some State delegations were in
structed to support it.
The Legion action drew criticism
yesterday from Franklin D. Roose-
welt, jr, national housing chairman
of the American Veterans Com
mite, and from Mayor William
ODwyer, a Legionnaire.
Mr.. O'Neil, police chief at Man.
chester, N. H., said he voted for sup
port of the bill in accordance with
the stand taken by his State delega-
ton, but that the convention deci-
sion was arrived at through demo-
cratic processes" and as commander
he would carry out the will of the
majority"
THE convention brought forward
! number of other Chousing) propo-
sails to be studied and acted upon" /"
Mr.. ONeil said at news conference
yesterday. He said veterans housing
was the mo. 2 problem" of the Le-
gion, second only to getting uni
versal military training law through
Congress.
Mayor O'Dwyer told reporters he
was shocked" at the Legion action
on housing.
II love my Legion membership,
but I would have loved to see some
decent thinking come out of the
American Legion convention" the
Mayor said.
Mr.. Roosevelt earlier had issued a
statement declaring that the Legion S
Housing Committee was stacked in
favor of real estate interests"
