AID CASH:
And Politics

Although its funds were still in
state of confusion as a result OF
combination Of congressional econ
omy and COP political machina-
tons, the economic cooperation
administration nevertheless man.
aged to toss off the biggest bundle
of foreign relief cash so far.
Paul G. Hoffman, ECA admin
istrator, approved the assignment
of $95,610,605 for 10 European coun-
tries, including Trieste, and China.
The action brought total Marshall
plan authorizations from available
funds to 1898, 737,029.
Countries sharing in the new ap.
prevails were Great Britain, The
Netherlands, France, French zone
of Germany, Austria, Denmark,
Italy, Norway, Greece, Trieste and
China.
The assignment Of almost SO mil
lion dollars in foreign aid funds
served to point up the squabble set
off in congress when the house
voted to spread the recovery funds
over Is months instead of IL, there
by producing the effect Of slashing
aid appropriations by one to two
billion dollars.
While the senate restored the ap-
preparations cut, many us. leaders
were gravely worried about another
possible significance of the house
action.
Theory was that the house, by
cutting ECA appropriations, demon
strated that Republican organiza'
ton bosses are determined to fight,
and reverse If possible, the line Of
foreign policy represented by the
Marshall plan.
It was thought to be part Of
larger plan to gain control Of the
Republican party and to defeat the
new postwar COP leaders-Van-
denberg, Dewey, Stassen and War
ren-by chipping away the corner
stone Of the foreign policy they all
profess.
The situation had the outward
appearance Of chaos, but behind 1t
lurked the business of playing cleo
ton year politics while permitting
the rest of the world to 60 hang.

MIDDLE INCOME:
That's So, 92O

Any American family which could
add up the wages it received in
1947 and get 5000 for the total had
earned middle income" accord
ing to the way the federal reserve
board has it figured out.
That middle income" up $500
from 1916, incidentally, means that
half of all the AZ million us. fani-
lies made more than that while the
other half made less.
About SO per cent or 28,980,000
families had a joint income Of
$4,000 or more last year. By con-
trast, in the mid-1930s fewer than
Sc million families had incomes at
that level. But dollar bought con-
siderably more then than it does
now.
Twenty-one out of each 100 fam
lilies rated incomes above $4,000 In
1947, while eight Of that group got
more than $500 a year.
However, not all were in the top
money. OF each 100 families Is had
incomes under 81 1000 and another IS
earned between $1,000 and $4,000.
But even many Of the well-to-do
were unhappy about the whole
thing. They felt that they were be-
coming worse off financially be-
cause Of the high cost of living.
According to the federal reserve
boards sample survey, those per-
sons who own their own business or
manage somebody else's earn the
most money. Middle income for
families headed by "a managerial
or self-employed person" was
$4,000.
Next on the list were professional
workers with a middle income OF
$4,000. Skilled and semi-skilled
workers followed with $4,000. clerks
and salespeople with $4,000 and I'M
skilled workers with $1,000.
On cash basis, the middle in
come Of farmers was only $1,000,
but the survey pointed out that
farmers have substantial" nom
money income, like the food they
produce.

HOLD FIRE
Still No Peace

For little while the dove of
peace drifted over Palestine on
frayed and weary wing as Arab and
Israeli armies were observing,
more or less loosely, a four-week
truce in the war for possession of
the Holy Land.
At best the United Nations-super-
vised truce agreement was fret
full and uneasy affair. Before the
four-week mediation period was
two days old both Arabs and Jews
had begun charging each other
with violations of the pact.
Count Folke Bernadotte, U.N.
truce negotiator, was investigating
the accusations, but it looked very
much as though another security
council cease-fire order might go
unloved, unhonored and unobeyed.
Actually, it is difficult to see how
any synthetically imposed truce
could succeed in Palestine. There
are no basic grounds upon which
a genuine interruption of hostilities
could rest. Both sides profess mill
tary proficiency and the ability to
keep on fighting and winning.
And, more important, each side is
fanatically opposed to modifying its
demands: Israel is determined to
retain it's sovereignty and to have
unlimited immigration of Jews into
the state. The Arabs are just as
determined to erase the state of
Israel from the map.
Thus, there is little confidence in
the security councils truce plan
and its power to effect peace. And
that pessimism was heightened by
the knowledge that no U.N. cease
fire edict has worked yet.
Aside from the seriousness Of the
struggle for Palestine itself, deep
est significance of the affair lay in
the fact that it is raising once more
the old question of whether any
world peace organization of nations
ever can succeed in the task it sets
for itself-the maintenance of peace
and order on earth.
Pressure of world opinion-Which
Is all the UN. security council can
bring to bear, lacking both military
teeth and the power to bring eco
nomic sanctions against offending
nations-apparently is not going to
be enough, at least in the case of
Palestine.
One inference which may be
drawn Is that the UN. will need
more power of one kind or another
before it can prevail against the
fetish Of blind, militant nationalism
that has hurled the world into two
major wars already in this century.

 FIint's Statement
 William H. Flint, President of the Juneau IVA local. said:
 ."I regret that the sawmill work CTS have been forced to cross a picket line to preserve the economic security of this community My union has been entangled Tor the past few months in one of the most difficult situations that a union can find itself. No one can say that my union has not tried to settle this dispute favorably to all parties. It has simply come to a point where We had to act to preserve our own local.
 IT wish to say that I am proud Of my members for going back to work as a union and not individually.
 Freeman Schultz, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Juneau Spruce, said that he was pleased to see that so many men wanted to return to work. He issued an invitation to any others who are interested. Schultz predicted that the sawmill will begin actual opera tions about July 19 as it will take that much time to get it in shape again after the long closed period.
 In the meantime, ILWU pickets continued to march in front of the mill. There were no disorders this morning when the IVA returned to work. The Juneau Police Depart ment was present to keep the peace but was not called upon. Several other members of the ILWU were also present to list the names of men crossing their picket line but tock no other action.
