development of power, reclamation
and so forth. These will take a
nickel Of the tax dollar. The largest
single item in the category, Incl
dentally, is for the Atomic Energy
Commission. $725,O 100000, more than
a third of the whole. Since most of
our thinking concerning atomic en-
ergy has to do with defensive or
offensive warfare, this item might
properly be considered part of the
war cost.
Finally, there is what is called the
general cost of government, includ-
ing the executive, legislative and
judicial branches. Thirteen out of
a hundred cents is spent in this
manner. There is hope that the
Hoover Commission will indicate
ways of reducing this somewhat.
We come then to where our money
really goes. 1t goes for past wars,
the present cold war, and prepared
ness for possible future wars. The
Budget Bureau divides this remain
der of our dollar in this manner:
National defense, "a cents; in
ternational, 16 cents; veterans
program, 13 cents; interest on debt,
13 cents" Total, rs cents.
Some of this cost, such as interest
on debt, cannot be reduced, and
there is little disposition to reduce
any Of the rest. In fact, economizers
will have a hard time holding the
line against increases In the de-
fense program. For example, more
war planes than the budget provides
already are being demanded And
universal military training still Is
in the offing.
How to pay for all this is the
problem of Congress, and Congress
will study the tax question as never

Western movie - until something
like the Pearl Harbor attack hits us
This American psychology is well
known abroad and there is no ques-
ton that our only enemy in the
world today-the U. S. S. R.-is
taking full advantage of it.
The disaster in China is being
headlined as disaster for the Kuo-
mintang, when in fact it not only
places now under Moscow control
the most important portions OF
China, but also enables the Polit-
buro to extend its sphere of activity
to the Indian Ocean.
Question of Security.
The American people showed as
much interest in the spectacular
defeat of Generalissimo Chang
Kai-shek as they would have shown
in the eruption of a volcano which
took heavy toll of life. Some shook
their heads and said 1t was too bad
for Gen. Chang to be so badly
defeated. Others found consolation
in the charge that he was thoroughly
corrupt and venal, anyhow.
Il Those in positions of responsibility
at home and abroad take a serious
view of the disaster. They are not
particularly interested in Gen
Chang or the Kuomintang, or for
that matter in the Chinese them
selves. but they are interested in the
security of the United States and
the effect of the Nationalist disaster
on our position in the Pacific, and
particularly in Japan.
1t may be of little interest to
the average reader to hear that in
the last few weeks the japanese
Communist Party has made i'm
portant strides and has doubled its
membership, which now is estimated
at nearly 100000. Our loss of face
in China, intelligently exploited by
the japanese Communists, has had
much to do with this growth of
the party in Japan.
There are other considerations,
however, which make American ad-

ministrators in Japan worry about
the future. The idea that Russia
is the only power to which Japan
can tie itself is being spread by
tens of thousands of soldiers who
have been sent back to their home
land after having been held in
Siberia for the last three years.
These soldiers were members of the
japanese Kwantung army, which
surrendered to the Russians and was
taken to Siberia.
Some of those men who remained
adamant in their loyalty to the
Emperor were sent to the mines and
labor camps. How many are still
alive is not known. Others who
enthusiastically adopted Communist
tenets now comprise military force
which some day may grow into a
Japanese army Of liberation"
Advance Guard of Soviet.
A number of lower commissioned
and noncommissioned japanese Of
f1cers were repatriated and have
become the active advance guard of
the U. S S. r. These men we're thor
oughly indoctrinated in various
special schools in Siberia. The most
promising were sent to the Lenin
School in Baku-the highest insti-
tuition for Russian training Of for
eign subversive agents-to learn to
become future leaders of the Com
munist movement in their home
land.
These men, who cannot be ex-
cluded as aliens since they are bona
fide Japanese prisoners, now are
extremely active in telling their fel-
low citizens what a happy life
the masses enjoy in Russia. Since
SO per cent of the Japanese con-
slider themselves oppressed. the
propaganda Of these thousands of
well-selected agents is hitting the
mark.
They are being backed by sub
stantial amounts OF money from un-
disclosed sources, according to Of
fetal reports which avoid Identify
ing Moscow as the source. They are
making such strides that Supreme
Allied headquarters in Tokyo has
become genuinely concerned for the
first time.
The first Red step, according to
reports from Japan, will be fight
to win a large number of seats in
the Diet, taking advantage of demo-
cratic rights. But that campaign is
only a red herring. Communism
has never been introduced into any
ccuntry-including the U. S. S. R.
by democratic electoral processes.
After a country is taken over by
means Of a coup and the usual
purges, the people give a so per
cent majority vote to the new
regime.
What worries our authorities is
that within a reasonably short time
we may witness some dramatic &C

Where Theories Conflict.
All will agree that only great and
sustained prosperity will make it
possible to meet the bill and that
the tax program must be one to
promote prosperity. But at this
point disagreement will begin, with
the advocates of q trickle-down
theory in conflict with advocates of
a trickle-up theory.
The trickle-downers were listened
to by the 80th Congress. We got a
tax bill designed to relieve the big
incomes. This was supposed to
release lot of capital for business
and industrial expansion and so to
make lot Of jobs, which would
mean increased purchasing power
and general prosperity. An advisory
group of so-called big business tax

Now comes a group Of CIO experts

Business and industry could pay in

business and industry.
These are the extremes offered

year. The reverse should be true.
When q woman enters an elevator
where there is man or men rid
ing she should pop off her bonnet.
The same goes for the tipping of the
hat on the street. There is no rea-
son why this burden should fall to
the weaker sex.
Suckers for Many Years.
Now that Mr.. Lawton has proved
that women are the stronger sex, 1t
becomes clear that men have been
awful suckers for many, many years.
No longer will men feel obliged to
stop their cars when they see car
with a fiat tire, occupied by women,
pulled up alongside the road. They
can whiz on by, secure in the knowl-
edge that to stop not only would
shorten their lives but that their
offer to help would only slow down
matters, the women being stronger
and much more able to replace the
fiat tire with a spare. Indeed, we
may soon have the sight of two men,
standing disconsolately by the road,
waiting for gal to come along and
flx the fiat. Those will be happy
days, men, happy days.
Another thing that undoubtedly
has shortened the life of the Amer
ican man is always having had to
reach out and pick up the check
whenever he dined and wined with
a woman. No exact figures are
available, but I would guess that
men reach millions of miles a year
for checks Often this reaching for
checks is not only physical, but a
mental strain. Half the time the
check includes the edibles and po-
tables consumed by some woman

Won't Make Wife Widow.
I don't know about the rest of
you men, but starting today I am
going to try to see to it that my
wife does not become a widow be-
cause of my doing things for her
that she should do for me, the
weaker animal
From now on, when we cross a !
crowded street it will be her arm
on mine, not mine on hers, that
will do the guiding. In the future,
when it rains, she can very well hold
the umbrella over me to see that
I don't get wet, catch cold, and
threaten her with early widowhood.

Era of Good Feeling
Personalities of Truman and Barkley
Felt Throughout Nation and World

a little uncommon IN modern poll
tics.
The little unremembered acts of
kindness and Of love, Of which the
Marshall call Is an example, are
almost In the luxury class for Pres
idents. They take time and his is
so valuable. So many people want
so much from q President, he tends
to develop q cynicism in human
relations, If he as not already &C
quired it on his way up the ladder
to high Office. But the luxury Of
simple friendliness Is one this Pres
ident is apparently determined to
keep.
Barkley Has It, Too.
The sincerity which is so marked
in Mr.. Truman is also a character
istic of the Vice-President-elect,
Senator Barley. 1t is extraordinary
that the Senator could hang on to
1t through the vicissitudes Of a po-
litical career which began nearly
so years ago when he was elected
prosecutor of McCracken County,
Kentucky But hardened Senators
agree he has done it and it is not
small part of the reason for his
success as Senate leader.
Both President and Vice President
have been somewhat nonplussed by
the fact that so many people ap-
parently want to see them inaugu-
rated. Major General Vaughan, the
Presidents military aide, was in
discreet but he spoke by the book
when he said that present elaborate
inaugural plans had gone far be-
yond what the President originally
intended.
The die Is cast, however, and
both men have accepted staggering
schedules In an effort to let as many
people as possible see them. Their
aides are fretting but to no avail;
their bosses won't disappoint any
body If they can help it.
1t is of course too much to hope
that because Harry Truman and
Alben Barkley are such nice people,
their administration can launch an
era of good feeling in troubled
times like these. Yet to some de-
gree their personalities are felt in
the Nation and the world, an in
tangible asset that cannot be count
ed as without value.

efforts will be made to trim the
figure and it is not difficult to fore
cast where most of the efforts will be
made. They will be aimed at some
of the items which give the Presi-
dents program the character OF q
continuing New Deal-now re-
named the Fair Deal. In this list
will be found housing, health in
surance, aid to education and in
creased social security.
These services will cost money.
Together with those already in op-
Grafton they will take six cents of
