kthe words of those Congress
! men who hove Just returned
from personnel investigations
there.
One Congressman - on the
special Hcrter committee which
IS now about ready to report its
findings to the regular Foreign
Affairs cOmmittee-said that if
the United States doesn't stand
by these countries, in the mex t
year Communism would advance
to the English Channel. Such a
development would be a grave
turn toward the darker side for
this country. Exports would GER
talnly be reduced and the entire
continent would surely be con-
,rOlled by the Reds in Moscow.
Therefore it is probably ac
curate to say that most Con-
greSSmen favor the Marshill
Plan in some form. There were
exceptions, such as Mr.. Taber
and others, but there were five
favorlng aid to one who didn't.
And while many people joked at
the number of lawmakers head
ing for Europe this summer, it
is probably a good thing they
went.
Had someone tried to ram the
Marshall Plan down Congress
collective throats without the
personal knowledge they now
possess, it could easily have
been failing proposal. Most
Congressman back home now
have expressed their belief that
the Voice OF America brOadcasts
should be stepped up instead of
Curtailed as most OF them for
merly believed.
They saw the dangers of Com
munism first-hand, and are in
the mood to back the Voice of
America as our greatest hope of
penetrating the curtain of dark
ness IN eastern Europe The
various tours of our Congress-
men no doubt cost the taXpay-
ers plenty, but if the Marshall
Plan could not have succeeded
other wise, and if the Voice of
America would also have been
left to wilt otherwise, the money
was probably well spent.

ATTEMPTING THE IMPOSSIBLE

Pleading for greater economic unity in
&, of the Treasury of Mexico, says that every
country in the Americas is attempting the
impossible in trying to sell but not to buy
This brings to mind the recent declara-
ton of several prominent Americans,
representing labor, industry and agricul-
: ture stressing the Importance of healthy,
> balanced world trade and insisting that an
!. increase in imports is necessary to stimu-
: late economic recovery.
Among the speakers was Edward A.
ONeal, veteran president of the Amer
lean Farm Bureau Federation, who
pointed out that 'the farmers stake in
foreign trade is very great simply because
this nation cannot consume all the food
and fiber that our farmers are capable
of producing"
While admitting that some tariff pro.
lection might be needed against unfair
competition, Mr.. O'Neal declared that of
3O6 items that farmers buy, ranging from
clothing to fencing, 23O are protected by
duties and only 76 are free of levy. He
said that the farmer has arrived at a real
istic view and no longer believes that high
protective tariffs lead to high wages
Another speaker Mr. George NJ. Har-
risOn, vice president of the American
Federation of Labor, warned that with
out imports, our economy would come to
a standstll," and urged that we begin
planning, while production and employ
ment continue at high levels, for a larger
volume of imports. particularly strategic
raw materials. Unless we are prepared to
increase our imports, he said, our pres
ent large volume of exports, employment
based upon exports cannot long be main
tanned. If We do not accept imports, we
can continue to export only by giving
away cur goods to the rest of the world
indefinitely. -
Something of the same idea came from
George w. Wolfe, president of the U. S.
Steel Export Company, who warned that
if we continued the expenditure of our
productive and national wealth at the cur
rent rate, giving to foreign nations without
importing in return, we will come to
economic bankruptcy and exhaustion"
Realizing that the United States must ex-
tend assistance to other countries, Mr..
Wolfe said that we must either import or
else furnish dollar credits to countries
j. which want to buy our goods. That is

what we are doing now and he warns
that because of our failure and lack of
desire to import" we will end up minus
the dollars and minus the goods.
1t is very apparent, if the economy of
the world is to be revived, that there
must be freer system of credit between
the nations. The United States vitality re-
quires certain strategic raw material i'm

stockpiled by the government. In addi-

Chavez Proposes Canal
Across Mexico's Waist

A new Atlantic-P Pacific canal across
the waistline of Mexico was pro-
posed yesterday by Senator Chavez,
Democrat. of New Mexico.
American lawmakers, disquieted
by Panamas refusal to extend leases
on war time bases, have begun dis
cussing the feasibility of digging
new inter-oceanic ditch some
where else than Panama. Mica
ragua and Columbia were among
the suggested sites.
Senator Chavez, however, said the
new channel ought to be across the
isthmus of Tehuantepec, from
Salina Cruz on the Pacific to
Puerto Mexico on the Atlantic.
The negotiations should be based
upon a strict understanding that
the sovereignty of Mexico would be
respected and that what is being
done Is unselfish from all stand
points," Senator Chavez said.
IT believe it can be accomplished
II it is approached on intelligent,
sound and unselfish grounds"
