good would it do the United States
| if France sent So billion for lobby
lists, bar flies, Parnel Thomas, to
spend around Washington, or in $50
the day hotels in Florida?
| Now the war scare hoax is becom-
ing transparent. No sane statesman
in Moscow or Washington is ever
going to propose the actual starting
of war. That Gold War has always
been a camouflage, to get rid of the
over-production Tin some manner
besides equal consumption) will soon
be realized by all thoughtful voters.
The Andrew j. Mays and Parnell
Thomases cannot steal it all, even
though they draw fat pensions for
life while in penitentiaries.
The surplus must be channeled off
1t must not be used for valley auth
critics. That would hurt the sacred
power and fertilizer monopolies. 1t
cannot be used for capitalization and
medical care Every father is rich
enough to provide all of that for his
family. 1t cannot be used to reduce
the National debt. Without an over
whelming bond issue, where would
the insurance companies invest their
reserves? They might have to divide
up with policy holders, or reduce
their inordinate premium rates. So
there remains only the plan scorned,
even called chimerical, by the Wash
ington Wiseacres of Is years ago.
PAY THE SURPLUS TO THE
AGED
The proposal forced by the logic
of events, or relentless evolution,
into a phase of capitalism, is to give
every person of or above 65 years
a pension of 500 the month, regard
less of what the person owns or
earns. The United States News es-
Inmates that on the present census
this would cost about $13 billion the

atty Administration" offers us an
alternative The alternative is war
and death.
We read in our papers that "se-
curity" which brings US closer to war
is better than an abundance of peace
time production. Politicians insist
that we say eyes" to a mad profit
splurge. If we don't say Eyes, they
argue, the monopolies will be peeved
If the monopolies are peeved they
won't make arms and munitions, and
we will be destroyed. Ergo profits
and the national interest are one and
the same. Slick, isn't it? Slick, and
thoroughly untrue.
The monopolies wanted an end to
economic controls. Truman obliged.
The press and radio inflict US with
national campaign of vilification di-
rected against the memory of FDR.
We are ordered to believe that
Marshall Plan Europe must rest on
re-Nazified Germany and re-indus-
trialized Ruhr. Atom-mad statesmen
shout that war with Russia is law,
like gravity.
If we disagree? The House
Committee and the Loyalty Boards
are ready to take care of US.
The men of the underground gov
eminent want to curtail our civil
liberties to stop us from speaking
out against the manner in which they
are running the country, for and by
themselves. They want to keep too
much and make too much more.
Therefore criticism is "disloyal''.
Do you remember these two SEN
fences from Sinclair Lewis novel,
cit CAN'T HAPPEN HERE?
For the first time in America, ex-
cept during, the Civil War and the
World War, people were afraid to
say whatever came to their tongues.
On the streets, on trains, at theatres
men looked about to see who might
be listening"
This is an accurate description of
Washington, DC, today. Wall
Street uses fear as fundamental in
gredient of politics.
| have heard that it is "old-fashion-
ed to talk of Wall Street and the
growth of American monopoly. 1t
is, however, the most modern of dis
cussions because it deals with what
is happening today in American life.

CITIZEN OF THE WORLD

CITIZEN or The WORLD
| am a citizen, not of Athens or of Greece, but of the
World were the words of the great Socrates, and though
ne died some twenty-five hundred years ago, today more
than ever man finds himself a Citizen Of the World.
There has been some comment from time to time, as to
why we carry the releases with the activities of the United
Nations in our columns. 1t is our feeling and belief that everv
man should be a good citzen-not only of his country but of
the world and such a person should be informed about
the activities OF an organization with such worldwide influ
ence.
AS Socrates knew it, the world extended only to those
countries which existed on the shores of the Mediterranean
Sea but his words are more true today. Mans progress in
communication and travel has brought the peoples of the
world nearer to each other than when there existed only
those few countries on the Mediterranean. Because of this
contact it has become apparent that the interests, the desires
and the needs Of the different races, colors and creeds are
really the same.
The tyranny, oppression, struggle and conflict which
arises from these desires for Justice in countries where men
preach hatred and war for their own personal profit and ad-
vantage, is a teacher and constant reminder of the impor-
lance of freedom and equality.
The reasons, that this organization was formed, and
what it has done in the last four years, should demand our
interest and participation. This organization came because
of a very great and far-reaching need for it, provided by re-
curing wars, by famine, the spread of disease and by the
spread Of totaitarian and authoritarian rule. This organiza-
ton came about to use the resources of all the world to solve
both national and worldwide problems.
What has world affairs and UN to do with us in these
islands, !? is a question sometimes asked. This brings to mind
the biblical quotation: Am / my brothers keeper" If this is
one world when it comes to the ability of wars to spread, it
is surely one when it comes to the pathways of peace.
A native son, Attorney James A. Bough of ST. Croix, is with
the UN as assistant to the world famous DR.. Ralph Bunche.

He is directly connected with
the committees that control
the affairs of non-self-govem-
ing areas, such as ours. In Or
der to have a fuller realization
Of the benefits, we should
read and think about the U N
organization. Would be critics
would do well to first inform
themselves and discuss these
affairs of public interest and
concern intelligently. Very Of

others to speak for us, because

IN the four years THE Uni
