Russians throughout the world,
may result in net increase of $40
billion in our budget. But this con-
dition is not an all-out war, and it
may last for ten years, as long as
the Russians foment minor ag-
greSsion or even threaten it.
In economic terms, this means
the spending by the Federal
Government of perhaps $50 bill
lion plus per year instead of $40
billion. This new status, while it
is not an all-Out war, does re-
Quire some sacrifice of civilian
progress and standards of living.
WHILE the new expenditures
" are heavy, they can be paid
for out of taxes and handled on a
pay-as-you-go basis. That is the
first step to prevent initiation. 1t
has been repeatedly proved by ex-
perience that the government can
not borrow vast sums of money
and then hope by the imposition
of controls to prevent for long the
inevitable inf1ationary effects. II
we want to stop initiation, we have
to stop it at the source. This is par
ticularly true when we already
have a huge debt of $257 billion.
1 suggest therefore that we
should D economize on all do
mestic expenditures; (2) levy
taxes to cover all contemplated
expenditures and levy them at
once, no matter how burden
; some they appear; (3) impose
controls on the increase of pri-
vate credit.
I am fully in favor of giving the
Federal Reserve Board power to
limit consumer credit. Nothing
would more rapidly reduce the de-
mand for steel.
With such a program, / believe
IL is unnecessary to grant any such

know and love today.
It is a government that has
been developing for hundreds OF
years, and shall develop for
hundreds more; government
that has outgrown an initial
stage wherein it served the cit
izens of Greece-citizens who
did not include the underprivil-
eyed and the captive and who
constituted but a fraction of the
population. 1t is a government
that has weathered the time
when land-laden Polish baron
frowned upon it, thinking of his
foreign serfs, tilling their for
eign fields for his benefit alone.
He worried little, for he could
dispose of them at his pleasure
if he found one who thought in
their number.
It is a government that has
grown great since that medieval
year when England's people first
had representatives before their
king-the first representatives
before authority a people ever
had.
1t won a place for itself dur
ing the bitter civil war of France
when people were hungry and
angered with the extravagant
caprices of those who ruled it
thru heritage, and it found
home in the New World when
honest colonists learned to de-
mand rule by their own choice.
1t has grown from privilege
of the few to right of the COM
mon, risen from a prosecuted
idea to a mighty ideal upheld in
safety by millions. It has devel-
oped into a system whose inn
perfections can be remedied and
whose virtues are a God-given
right.
For this democracy is natur-
al system. Men were created
equal in their rights and their
responsibilities. And is not in
telligent participation in govern
ling among them? Men were CIV
en- individual minds and desires.
Ought not they have right to
voice them?
Democracy is system with
flaws, because thru the ages men
have erred and do err, and a
democracy is only as right as its
people. Democracy is able to
abolish its principles by its own
excess.
A cynic spoke the truth about
! it when he said that democracy
can make each man his own OPP
pressor. Yet, / believe that great
er men have said truer thing
about democracy; that the

The standard of living achieved
by the people of the United
States is far above that of any
other country in the world. Our
annual consumption of food is a
reliable index to our prosperity.
Annually, each person consumes,
on an average, sixty-two pounds
of beef, seventy-one pounds of
pork, three hundred and eighty
one eggs, seven hundred and fif-
ty pounds of milk, one hundred
and eighteen pounds of fresh
fruits, two hundred and fifty
pounds of fresh vegetables, nine
ty-six pounds of sugar, ten
pounds of butter and one hun
dred and thirty-eight pounds OF
bread and wheat products.
Our annual production of con-
sumner goods in many categories
is far above the total production
for all the rest of the world. This
year approximately ten million
automobiles and trucks will be
produced. We are producing six
million refrigerators, five mil
lion washing machines, three and
one-half million vacuum cleaners
eleven million radios, seven mil
lion television sets, two hundred
and sixty-seven million dresses,
four hundred and fifty-five mil
lion pairs of shoes, twenty -one
million mems suits and six hun
dred and twenty-five million
pairs of nylon stockings. The re-
armament program is expected
to cut production of all the above
items, except clothing.

arbitrary and dictatorial powers
over industry as are proposed in
the Presidents bill. While it omits
those controls which might be con-
sidered unpopular in an election
year, price control, wage controls
and consumer rationing, in every
other field it gives completely ar
bitrary power over the operation
of industry, commerce and agri-
culture. 1t gives the power to
requisition any property in the
United States, to loan money to
anyone to go into any business the
government chooses to 60 into
The whole Brannan Plan could be
put into effect under this bill.
1t seems to me that the only
new powers needed are the pow
ers to control credit and those
direct powers necessary to Sc
cure the manufacture of muni-
tions and supplies of the armed
forces. The other powers, as well
as price control, wage control
and rati0ning, might well be
part of a general grant in case
of all-Out war. We could work
on the draft of a statute which
could be agreed to and prompt
ly enacted in case such war
occurred.
A RBITRARY government con-
troll is not a cure for imitation,
We fool ourselves if we think that
these controls prevent imitation
They attempt to prevent the re-
suits without striking at the cause
The way to prevent imitation is to
go on a pay-as- you-go basis.
We face a new status of
semi-garrison state, forced on us
by the Russian threat. However
we got there, now we have to
pay for it.
Let's not fool ourselves by think
ing we can borrow the money and
go on enjoying ourselves to the
full on a domestic spree. We have
to give up some of our purchasing
power heretofore available for do
mestic purposes in the form of tax
alton so it can be spent for war
purposes. We cannot have some
thing for nothing. In the end, we
would pay for it much more vio-
lently in money and increased
prices.
Whatever the situation is
brought about by Russian aggres-
sion and administrative policy, il
ought to be faced now and ought
not to be hidden and concealed
until after November z.

social work has been enthusiasts

dent of the Filipino Community d
Seattle, has done his level best d
serve his constituents, and hs
called upon the best available tai
ent in the community, irrespective
of their private, political, social d

If Sarusal has not done all thai
we expected of him, at least he has
done the best he could with thu

with those willing to help. And So
as 1850 comes to a close, Sarusall

Phoenix Residents Shower
Gifts on Starving Children
By the Associoted Press

PHOENIX, Ariz.. Mar. 10
Phoenix residents opened their
hearts today for the relief of a
migratory workers camp where
100 children were reported starv-
ing earlier in the week.
Juvenile officers, working un-
der direction of Superior Judge
Thomas j. Croaff, operated q
pickup and delivery service to
distribute the gifts in the area Il
miles west of her.
Judge Croaff ordered the con-
tinued use of his Juvenile Court
funds where needed as all official
attempts to aid the camp ap-
peared to be breaking down.
The Arizona attorney generals
Office reported it would be impos-
sible to declare the situation an
emergency, and thereby tap spe-
cial relief funds reserved for use
by Gov. Dan E. Garvey.
Gov. Garvey said he was taking
steps to secure Federal aid, but
said he feared that might take
lengthy negotiations.

ployed for many weeks. Cotton

But that is kid stuff compared to
the methods that we are up
against. There has never in the
history Of the world been an i'm
perialist system that compares
with what the Soviet Union has
at its disposal. He have seen it

The arsenal of the Communists

detail the uses which they make
of force, threats, infiltration,
planned chaos, despair and con-
fusion. and the enslavement of the
people they dominate by a shrewd
use of informers.

Against this threat, we must
have. a foreign policy with two
inter-related branches.
First, We must be prepared to
meet wherever possible all thrusts
Of the Soviet Union. ." In the
case of Greece and Turkey we
were able to meet that thrust
effectively because the Greeks and
the Turks were determined to
maintain their independence.
In the case of China. the Com
munist thrust succeeded because
the Chinese people were not con-
vinced that the National Govern
merit was concerned with their
welfare. I do not think that this
thrust could have been prevented

Acheson Calls for Total Diplomacy Against Russia

with the Russians. We will not
have to keep our ears to the
ground in order to know when the
Russians are prepared to recognize
that they cannot exploit situa-
ton to their own benefit. . ="
Only Russians Would Benefit.
No good would come from our
taking the initiative in calling
for conversations at this point.
Such an effort on our part would
raise false hopes among some
people and fears among others.
The Russians would know that
there was a public expectancy of
results of some kind and those
results could only be achieved by
dangerous concessions on our
part. Only the Russians would
benefit from such a step.
The Russians know that we are
ready, always have been ready,
always will be ready. to discuss
with them any outstanding issue.
We have discussed with them all
important outstanding issues, not
once but many times. It is clear
that the Russians do not want to
settle those issues as long as they
feel there is any possibility they
can exploit them for their own
objectives of world domination.
It is only when they come to the
conclusion that they cannot so
exploit them that they will make
agreements and they will let it
be known when they have reached
that decision.
These are some of the things
that I meant when I referred to
total diplomacy" 1t means that
all branches of the Government
must work closely together.
And so it is with business, agri-
culture and labor, with the press
conference and with all of our
great national organizations. We
must agree voluntarily, to con-
cert our efforts to this one over
riding task.

Newspaper Official
Admits Refusing Ads
Of Radio Patronizers
BY the Assoeiaisd Press

CLEVELAND. Mar. 10. The
business manager of the Lorain
Journal conceded yesterday he re-
fused space in the newspaper to
advertisers who patronized radio
station WEOL in nearby Elyria.
D. P. Self, one of the four
Journal executives named as de-
PENDANTS in the Federal antitrust
suit against the daily, was asked
by the chief government attorney
in the case, Victor Kramer:
did you tell any Lorain Jour-
nal advertisers that they could
not continue to advertise in the
newspaper if they advertised over
WEOL (of Elyria and Lorain) ?"
The Journal executive replied,
eve did"
Mr.. Self twice had attempted
to qualify his answer, but Federal
Judge Emerich B. Freed insisted
that the question had been asked
definitely and directly" and de-
manded a direct answer.
Subsequent questions failed to
determine how many advertisers
were told of the policy. Earlier.
however, the Government put on
the stand more than 20 witnesses
who complained of an advertising
boycott" in the Journal If they
used radio commercials.
After the Government rested its
case yesterday, Parker Fulton,

to dismiss the Government COM
