Belgium's Troubles
Washington Post


 The rapidity with which Belgium staged an eco- homie comeback after the surprised the world and made that country the envy of its less fortunate neghbors This speedy recovery was due in part to possession of economic resources enabling. Belgium forge ahead under her with limited interim assistance without Industrial progress was also facilitated by rigorous deflation program that re- moved of the major deterrans to increased pro- duction
 However Belgium's budding prosperity is currently threatened by that universal compaint-dolar short age Since Belgium industry is heavily dependent upon imported materials and former nondoar sources of supply unavailable, imports from the United States have to be relied upon to fill the gap As the bulk of Belgium exports shipped to non- dollar countries the result is large adverse trade balance with this country, draining away much need ed dollars Under normal conditions, with foreign currenciesespecialy sterling-freely convertible into gold dollars, Belgium would be self sustaining basis As matters stand she seriously embarrassed Moreover, large volume of sterling balances be- longing to Belgium, representing the proceeds of ex port sales in blocked accounts and be used 70 pay for essential imports.
 Begiums plight emphasizes the importance of put also preservatve of the economic gains that put also preservative of the econmic gains that countries in Belgums position have already achieved For until Europe is enancipated from her present abnormal dependence upon imported goods that have to be paid for in United States dollars, no single European country hope to enjoy sustained ,overy from the damages inflicted by the war

OUR COMMUNISTS

The people of Seattle continue to be amazed at the number of University of Washington professors former State legislators labor leaders and others who are being exposed members of the Communist Party by the Cantwell legislative committee on un- American activities, holding hearings in Seattle
 Among those named is Jesse Epstein of the Fed eral Housing Authority who has visited Alaska several times in connection with public housing And there is no question but what there are good many Con- rnunists within Alaska who ought to be exposed We are informed that not single CIO union in Alaska been able to qualify under the Taft-Hartley law because of Communist domination or leadership Un- doubtedly the FBI is keeping track of the fellow travellers in Alaska but it would be good idea to expose them to their fellow Alaskans for what they are
 Witnesses heard in Seattle told of how Soviet Russia has sent large of money to agents in the United States for the purpose of fostering the growth of the Communists who longer be laughed off as crackpots but who must be recognized fifth columniss" serving Soviet Russia.
 The next Territorial Legislature should certainly set up committee to uncover and expose the Com munists in Alaska

BROKERS SUSPICIOUS

If your investigators check care fully, I think you will find that III February, 1946, Dyke Cullum proposed opening an account under Farm Products Co., with Merrill Lynch, Fenner and Beane. The brokers, however, were suspicious that it was a blind for Senator Thomas end queried Cullum closely. He replied that he wanted to use the account for himself Ralph Moore and one other.
 The brokers told him they would ask their New York office whether the account was acceptable. They also examined him closely as to why he wanted separate ac- count under Farm Products Go. when he was already trading heav- fly under his own name, while Ralph Moore was trading heav- fly under his own name.
 Suspicious, Merrill Lynch, Fenner and Beane finally turned down the Farm Products Co.," account, though later, on October p. I946, by accident they accepted it. On Oct. 26, however, they asked Gull lum to take the account elsewhere.
 Ralph Moore, who has used the offices of both Senator Thomas and Senator Pappy ODaniel of Texas, is now under investigation by the Justice Department.
 Incidentally, it might be worth while also to examine the &C., counts of Xxi Cullum. and Dyke Cullum, Jr. These are Cullum's children, but l suspect that their father handles the accounts for them
 tThese are a few leads which I hope may be useful to your com mitteeD

Money Crop
LCincinnati Fnnllire,

Cincinnati Enquirer
 Burley tobacco, chief money crop of the region around and south of us, is commanding sensatonaly high prices at the current looseleaf sales General market averages have headed above $50 hundred highest since World War L And when tobacco goes across the breaks at 30 cents pound, it means a great many millions of dollars to the growers of the Burley Belt
 This years crop evidently is unusually good in quality especially the cigarette tobacco grades The total poundage sizabe, having been estimated by the Department of Agriculture at 525,000000 pounds.
 As a matter of fact, the surprising thing about the notably high market averages this year is that they are being attained despite tremendous carry over At the outset of the sales hurley stocks stood 941 100000 pounds. Acreage quotas for next year had been reduced 10 per cent by the Secretary of Agriculture in the of this accumulation-which comes close to being two years normal consumption. The export market for the leaf also expected to suffer because of the various dollar difficulties of foreign lands.
 As in the case of food crops, however the Fed guaranteed flooring under tobacco averages has increased automatically in keeping with the inflated cost of living. Then, too, burley consumption is at record levels and while tobacco buyers mus antic pate their requirements for years there is every indication that cigarette will continue at record rate

an amendment % the WPA-Relief Appropriation Bill directing the Secretary of the Treasury to buy silver at the rate of 50,000, 900 ounces a month until one-fourth of our total metallic reserve was silver instead Of gold
 To check on the Senator's early commodity market transactions, look in an cid warehouse at SIS Gravier Street, New Orleans, La. where the records of Fenner and Eeane are stored To check on some o1 his other silver transact ions, look up the records of Harriss and Vose, 60 Beaver Street, New York, though these may have been destroyed
 In other words the Senator from Oklahoma seems to have been in the stock and commodity markets during practically all of his long career.
 Regarding more recent opera tions, it might be interesting to check the account listed under Farm Products O." with Bache and Company and also for a short time with Merrill Lynch, Fenner and Beane. This account was handled by Dyke Cullum, about whom Senator Thomas recently said: Prem time to time I have turned money over to Dyke Gull lum and asked him to invest in cotton for me"

FATHER couGHLIN's ADVISER

Going back to 1883, 1884 and 1855, l believe you will find that at about the time Senator Thomas was speculating in silver, he was also making speeches calculated to increase the price of silver. He was, for instance. an active mem Der of Senator Key Pitman's silver bloc, and also described himself as silver adviser to Father Cough lin in attacking the Federal Re- serve Act. Coughlin later turned out to be the biggest individual buyer thrOugh his secretary of silver in the United States.
 In speech after speech Thomas urged passage of his silver buying bill. the remonetization ol silver and the payment of soldier bonuses from silver. But he said nothing to the public about the fact that he himself had been buying up silver

employed by the o-d stock broker age firm of Fenner and Beane at it's Oklahoma City office, while the Senator traded through the firms Washington office.
 During the summer of 1883 you will find that Thomas was active in the silver market, in fact had bought considerable quantity of silver on margin. and when the silver bubble burst in July, Thomas was caught short John Mother shed, then manager of Fenner and Beans Washington office, called on him for more collateral which the Senator did not put up. Accord ingly, he was sold out at a heavy loss.
 think you Will find that the next day July 19, 1883, Senator Thomas then sent two blistering telegrams to the presidents of the New York Stock Exchange and the Chicago Board of Trade de- rlanding stricter regulation. The two telegrams read in part TO days activity in your exchange demonstrates absolute necessity for immediate adoption of rule limit ing the amount of loss on any stock during any one session
 It is interesting that the Sena- ter himself did not reveal that he himself was caught short. He put his protest on the high moral plane of protecting the investing public It is also interesting that some years later, in the spring of l946 when the OPA urged stricter control of the cotton market, Thomas took exactly the opposite view and opposed those controls. At that time he and his wife were long on cotton and gambling on continued rise in prices. The Senator didn't want OPA controls to interfere with such a rise.
