In Europe the problem is COM

Japan, however, cannot resist a

Gen. Macarthur strongly de-
sires that a fair, just peace treaty
shall be obtained as soon as pos

Aided bv RFC in Hoover Days

in that earlier history. First, that
the natural impulse then was to
move first to relief of banks, busi-
ness and industry, which repre-
sented an attitude generally &C
cepted In Government. Second,
that during those years the
people became so
security y-conscious from the grim
experience of unemployment and
hunger that the Roosevelt ad-
ministration was impelled to move
naturally to provide protection IN
their jobs and in old age. among
other things, to readjust our
economy. That was q new atti-
tude.
It still persists today in an un-
certain world. It has Influenced
every election since, including that
of last November 8. 1t is an in
disputable fact of modern ma
chine-age civilization and its
politics. We all might as well
begin to live with 1t.
Can Be Overdone.
So today the welfare" en-
bodied in the Truman program Is
that for rank and file citizens
relating to better living conditions
and protection against sickness,
unemployment and old age for
those not yet included. It can,
Of course, be overdone at the ex-
pense of the health Of our general
economy. But the purpose Is
sound. And anybody who has
watched Congress over a long
period is not really concerned
that Congress will let 1t get be-
yond bounds. In this field, as
recent history shows, Congress
has served as quite a checks-and-
balances force, only relenting last
session, after ten years, to move
forward slowly again on the social
welfare front.
This has created all the uproar.
An OLD reporter recognizes among
those sardonic clamorers against
the welfare state" the familiar
faces Of some who came rushing
down here in that earlier era to
get some welfare" In the shape
Of RFC loans.
Instead of getting red in the
face mounting the new slogans, 1t
would seem the sensible thing to
do is to sit down and see how
much Of these things we can do
with other demands on our econ
omy, as, for example, q very re-
spected Republican leader, Senator
Taft Of Ohio, announces he now
is ready to do in regard to expan-
sion of our social security system.
He advocates q thorough study by
the Senate Finance Committee
early next session Of the social
security expansion bill passed last
session by the House, to see
whether the Senate should accept
that, do less, or do more.

upon the country with the New
York stock market crash. Whose
welfare" was the first official
concern then? Well, those OF us
who worked day and night
through those times here can tell
you. It was banks, business and
industry. They were quick to call
for relief and they got it when
Congress, at the request of Presi-
dent Hoover, set up the giant Re-
construction Finance Corp. for
loans to banks, businesses and in
dustries.
The idea was to save them by
bolstering up their capital struc-
lures and, as regards the general
situation in the country, the
theory was that this would keep
them going and thus provide con-
tinued employment. It was re-
lief from the top. It didn't do
the job. Unemployment continued
to mount into millions.
Resisted Federal Relief.
While President Hoover also set
up q committee here to do some
thing about unemployment on a
voluntary basis with industry. he
resisted direct Federal relief on
the principle that the Federal
Government c should not enter this
field, as he thought that many
dangerous things might follow
that system. Eventually he did
consent to loans from the RFC to
States - $500, ,000, 900 altogether
l. for them to provide direct re-
lief themselves, a compromise
with the principle, which Con-
gress sanctioned. Subsequently
all those loans were cancelled.
None was ever paid back.
President Roosevelt, his success
sor, did go to direct relief, but
reluctantly. and only after find
ing out the States had no funds
to do 1t.

ally to Assistant Secretary Voor-
hees on economic developments
there.
The considerable rightist ele-
ments in the japanese govern
ment, he explained to Mr.. Voor-
hees, are attempting to make eco
nomic recovery an excuse to
weaken the occupations fair
trade practice laws and re-estab-
lish the monopolies and combines.
What is needed, he thinks, is a
stern public warning that these
efforts must cease, that there is
no conflict between economic re-
covery and private competition.
japanese Encouraged.
The Japanese now seeking to
ditch the basic economic reforms
of the occupation have been en-
couraged by several factors. One
is the shift in emphasis to eco
nomic recovery. as expressed by
the rising demand in Congress
that we must take the occupied
countries of the backs Of the
American taxpayers.
Another is the fact that peace
treaty for Japan is in the works
which is bound to loosen both the
actual and moral controls now ex-
ercised by the occupation. Jap
anese politicians, aware that con-
siderably more freedom to run
things to suit themselves is just
around the corner, are stalling
while business interests quietly
prepare to remake some Of their
old arrangements.
Mr.. Welsh asserts strongly that
the japanese will do no more to
democratize their economy along
free-enterprise lines than the oc-
cupation demands. He has had
long experience with them; it was
under his direction that the oc-
cupation smashed the Mitsui, Nit
subishi and other holding COM
panies which became familiar to
America In the 'thirties when they
dumped Japanese goods indis-
criminately in order to get dollars
for scrap iron to make war.

prevent the normalization Of offi-
|cial American-Spanish economic
and diplomatic intercourse.
The first obstacle. according to
Spanish and American observers,
could be ironed out without diff
Guilty If the American people were
made aware that many reports OF
interference have been exag-
gerated, and if the Spanish gov
ernment, realizing that there is
no effort on our part to coerce 1t
in domestic matters, became more
liberal in granting the requests of
American Protestant clergymen.
There was a request, for in
stance, from Baptist minister to
permit the building Of a new
chapel in Barcelona. The request
was not turned down: it was
merely ignored. Considering the
very small number Of Baptists in
that city, the Spanish authorities
apparently consider that two
chapels are sufficient. At home
this attitude is interpreted as
fragrant violation Of the right OF
religious freedom.
Religious matters play an i'm
portant role in this Catholic coun-
try, as they do in America. Some
members of the Catholic hierarchy
here unquestionably put pressure
on the lay authorities, pointing out
that regardless Of how much the
laws of religious freedom have
been liberalized, the United States
persists in its hostile attitude to-
ward the present regime. AS soon
as more concessions are made. the
members of the hierarchy say,
other demands will be forthcom-
ing, without any change in Wash
ington's attitude toward Madrid.
Needs Church Support.
The Franco government, which
cannot count on any friends
among the principal Western Eur
opean governments, needs the sup
port OF even the most conservative
members of the national church.
It's position might become serious
ly jeopardized If it does not yield
to these elements without a coun-
terpart of good will from America.
But all this could change If Wash
ington and Madrid approached the
existing problem in a friendly
spirit Of mutual give and take.
The question of British influ-
ence in Washington against re-
sumption of normal relations with
Spain is a much more difficult
matter, however. The Spaniards
are convinced that the United
States Government will do moth
ing to embarrass the British Labor
government. The British elections
are not far off and the Labor
government, which has been hos
tile to Spain ever since 1t came to
power, feels that its chances OF
winning might diminish If Amer

lea resumes normal ties with
Spain.
So long as Clement Attlee re-
mains Prime Minister no real i'm
provement in political relations
between Britain and Spain can be
expected. In the files of the Span
ish government is a photograph
which. it says, speaks for itself. 1t
shows Mr.. Attlee surrounded by
Communist leaders reviewing the
British section of the Interna-
tional Brigade in Madrid in 1887.
He also was giving the clenched
fist salute.
In the same files. which are
made available to all who want to
see them, there is also the original
message from Mr.. Attlee, who was
then a member Of Parliament, to
the British section Of the Brigade.
The message extends the con-
gratulations Of Mr.. Attlee's coun-
trymen and his expression Of pride
at the good work the Britons were
doing. 1t ends with the Marxist
slogan, workers Of the World
Unite"
This may have been an act of
exuberance by the then more
youthful Attlee, who may not
have expected to become the
highest ranking dignitary in the
United Kingdom. It may have
been intended to add a number of
votes to the Labor Party. which
had not yet become as powerful
as it is today. But it is difficult
to convince any Spaniard that in
a democracy words and gestures
do not always represent deep con-
victions.
The argument frequently used
here by foreigners is that II the
British Prime Minister still holds
the feelings he held in 1887 he
certainly would not have permit
ted his government to sign a
$200, 100000 trade agreement
with Spain, thus giving the
Franco regime a breathing spell.
Business Comes First.
To these logical arguments the
reply is that the British have
never mixed business with poll
tics and that business always
comes first. In the 1949-50 agree
ment the British certainly are not
the losers. Moreover. they know
that as soon as the American
Government decides to withdraw
the present political and economic
boycott of Spain, British and
French interests may suffer, mas
much as they will no longer be
able to dump into Spain leftover
Marshall Plan goods.
AS an additional argument that
the British Prime Minister and
his colleagues sometimes use un-
savory methods to undermine the
Spanish regime and create chaos
here, a recent incident is brought
to the public's attention.
A gang Of forgers was discov-
cred in Brussels this month. They
specialized in manufacturing
Spanish currency. One OF the
leaders of the ring was arrested
and confessed to the Belgian Sc
curity police that he had been ad-
vised and assisted in his work by
British intelligence agents
there are about dozen OF them
in Madrid.
The story, which was published
in Spanish and Belgian papers,
was never denied. Currency sa-
botage is harmful. The Spaniards
believe that similar sabotage is
taking place in Washington,
where a number Of politicians
would consider the defeat Of the
British Labor Party next year as
q threat to the fabric Of the Eco
nomic Cooperation Administra-
ton, the Atlantic pact and the
military aid program.

Red armies knocked on the door of Chungking, Chinese Nationalist capital, today. Chinese commun- ist spearheads smashed to within 20 miles of the isolated mountain stronghold. Japanese forces were never able to Wrest it from Chiang Kai-Shek in World War II.
 The U. s. state department, meantime, announced that a new communist deportation order for Americans in China probably meant that Consul General Angus Ward and his vice consul, William N. Stokes, would soon be en route home. Both men were recently re- leased from a Red prison.
 The United States demanded to- day that the Uited Nations appeal to all countries-including Russia ito keep hands off China and let the Chinese settle ther town prob lens.
 The American proposal was laid before the 59-nation political com- mittee of the general assembly by U. s. ambassadors large Philip C. JeSsup. It did not mention Rus sia by name out Jessup spoke at length on Nationalist China's charges of Soviet interference.
 Jessup, speaking in calm voice, expressed regret at the de- cision of Soviet foreign minister Andrei Y. Vishinsky not to partic- ipate in the debate on China's charges against Russia.
 Vishinsky himself continued to boycott the discussions, leaving only loW-ranking members of the Soviet delegation at the table.
 The American proposal is much more mildly Worded than a reso- lution introduced by China Satur- day calling on all countries to re- frain from recognizing the com munist regime of Mao Tze-Tung
