Calls Reds Claims False.
The President condemned COM
munism for its false" claim that
it satisfies 1.-THE universal desire
for q better life"
Instead, he said. it lures men
by false promises back to tyranny
and slavery"
The President made no refer
ence to the plight Of Communist
controlled China. A new Ameri-
can policy concerning that coun-
try is in course OF study at the
State Department.
But, he said. the Philippines
and Korea. the two young repubA
lies in the Far East. need mill
tary assistance If they are to
maintain their national security"
While most Of the aid sought
in the arms program would go
to the Atlantic Treaty countries,
he said the Philippines and Korea
will share like others whose Sc
curity is important to world
peace"
I'VE must continue our aid to
Greece and Turkey" Mr.. Truman
said. I'VE should help Iran
maintain its firm stand against
Soviet pressure"
Mr.. Truman said military aid
is part and parcel" Of the policy
of helping European economic re-
covery. He conceded it was costly.
but said ut represents an invest
ment in security that will be worth
many times its cost" And he
said it is part Of the cost Of
peace"
Unless the democracies stand
together to weld q defense struc-
ture strong enough to prevent
another conflict. he said, they can

Contrasting United States ef-
forts to aid other countries with
those Of Russia. the President cited
support Of the United
Nations, and its aid to Greece and
Turkey in 1947 which preserved
the integrity Of both countries"
He said the Marshall Plan re-
covery program prevented general
collapse in Europe.
The President applauded the
signing Of the pact of Rio de
Janeiro binding North and South
America together in defense
alliance and compared this with
the North Atlantic defense pact.
THE next task" he said, "is to
back up this principle with milt-
tary assistance to European ma

wisely drawn to permit these re.
gional defense pacts and other col.
lective security arrangements which
are consistent with the great prin.
ciples of the Charter. The military
assistance program will help the
United Nations to cooperate more
effectively by increasing the collec.
tive as well as the individual ability
of free countries to resist aggres.
sion.
Military, Economic Policies Linked.
The Military Assistance Program
and the European Recovery Pro.
gram are part and parcel of the
same policy. There Is the closest
relationship between economic re.
covery and military defense. Or
the one hand, economic recovery
will lag If the haunting fear Of
military aggression is widespread
Such fear will prevent new invest
ments from being made and new
industries from being established
On the other hand. If protection
against aggression is assured, eco
nomic recovery will move forward
more rapidly. Sound economic re.
covery and adequate military de-
fense must be carried forward
together in balance. That is exactly
what we propose to do.
Great progress has been made in
economic recovery in Europe. The
production of the Western nations
OF Europe has been rising steadily
To continue the momentum of this
economic advance it Is necessary
now to remove the obstacles created
by the fear of military aggression
We should therefore undertake
a program of military assistance
without delay. The cost of such a
program is considerable, but il
represents an investment in secur-
ity that will be worth many times
it's cost. It is part Of the price OF
peace.
Peace with freedom and justice
cannot be bought cneaply. Nc
single program can bring 1t about
nor can any single nation 1t can
only be assured by the combined
efforts of the multitudes Of people
throughout the world who want 8
secure peace They are our friends
and they are friends worth having
We must keep them our friends
If the world is to be decent place
for our children and their children
to live in.
We must face the fact that we
have forever put behind us the
false security Of isolationism. We
have done so because we have
learned-learned the hard way
that, in the world Of today, isola-
tionism Is q futile and vulnerable
shield. We have learned that the
defense of the United States and the
defense of other freedom-loving ma
tions are indivisible. We have
learned that we can serve our coun-
try best by joining in the common
defense Of the rights Of all man
kind.
The Congress of the United States
in noble words has set out certain
purposes of the Veterans of For
eign Wars. Our organization is
pledged:
ITO maintain true allegiance to
the Government Of the United
States of America, and fidelity to
Its Constitution and laws; to foster
true patriotism; to maintain and
extend the institutions Of Ameri-
can freedom: to preserve and de-
fend the United States from all
her enemies ''''> 49,
In the fulfillment Of these high
purposes, I enlist your support to
the end that we may persevere in
the ways of peace with the same
vigor and determination with which
We fought our country's wars.

|Ching Requests Talks
In U. 5. on Settling
|0f Hawaiian Strike
By the Assocjotsd Press

The Government today asked
representatives of opposing sides
in the 1i4-day-old Hawaiian dock
strike to come to Washington OF
New York for mediation talks.
Cyrus s. Ching, director Of the
United States Cancellation Serv-
ice, cabled the striking union and
Hawaiian stevedoring negotiating
committee in Honolulu that he
would "be happy" to meet with
them in either city.
Mr.. Ching said the pressure of
other labor disputes make 1t i'm
possible for him to 60 to Hawaii
now as union and management
negotiators had asked.
He also asked participants in
the negotiations to make a new
try at settling the dispute on their
own in Hawaii. He said II they
are again unsuccessful at reach
ing an agreement they could come
to the States and meet with him
and other Government mediators
any time they choose.
The strike has seriously crippled
the economy of Hawaii. 1t has
brought export Of vast quantities
Of sugar, pineapples and other
island products to a standstill.
Also import Of vital food stocks
has been stalled.
The strike involves the CIO
International Longshoremen's and
Warehousemen's union and seven
stevedoring firms. The walkout
began May /.
The strikers are demanding a
32-cent raise in their $1.40-an-
hour wage. The stevedoring COM
panies have expressed willingness
to 60 as high as 14-cent hourly
increase.
Mr.. Chings cablegram today
was in answer to an appeal from
Hawaiian officials, and from the
union and management to go to
Honolulu to help out in the crisis.

LONDON. Aug. 22.-The British
customs Office said today it has
broken up a racket under which
smugglers. using food parcels as

600 pairs of nylon stockings from

Nylon stockings bring three to

Joycees Open
Drive To
Pay off Debt

Richland Jaycees launched a
program this week to- pay off
about $1,000 in debts incurred
when the 1913 Atomic Frontier
days celebration went into the
red.
At a meeting Thursday night,
the club announced that a sale
of notes would begin to pay off
the debts and at the same time
get funds to begin more money
making projects.
Tom Purton, chairman of the
committee, said the goal of the
project is to get the debts paid
off by July 1, 1850. Approximate
ly $1,000 in applications for
notes has already been receiv-
ed, he said.
Purton explained that the
notes would be paid off by the
club through money-making
projects.
Members of Purton's commit
tee are David E. Haley, Bruce
Anderson, Paul Beardsley, Bob
Hopkins and Bill Watts.
Purton explained that sales
of most notes would be to club
members, but anyone else who
wanted to help out would be
welcome to.
I'VE feel that this is the best
way we can fulfill our obliga'
lions and continue our work in
supporting community activi'
ties" he said.
