SHEER NONSENSE

Not all statehood advocates are urging the i'm
mediate passage of the Alaska statehood bill because
of the threat of and the consequent need for
defenses in Alaska.
Most honest people will agree with Senator But
er,s statement and Admiral Woods - that grant
ing statehood to Alaska has nothing to do with the
question of preparedness" ss-
One of the foremost proponents of statehood in
has called the plan to push statehood through
in hurry because of the confagration in Korea,
sheer nonsense
We think he is right.

war purposes. To us, war can
bring no benefits. The past two
wars in which we have engaged
have brought to our people an
altered economic and political sys-

To Soviet Russia, peace means
something altogether different. To

Since 1917 Soviet Russia has
been moving steadily in one direc-

country, there are Marxists who
sincerely believe that the monolith-

cause for lifelong devotion. If we
question their sincerity, we mis-
understand their conduct and the
intensity of their affiliation. Also,
we underestimate the strength of
their effort

good to generation weary of war.
he did not realize that what the
russians meant by one world was
4 Marxist world, achieved by force.
And So when Mr.. Truman made
MS off-the-cuff remarks about a
Red herring, he did not grasp that
5he ultimate conquest of the Uni
ed States by Marxism is not only
an objective but has been more
than 80 years in the making.
1t was largely as part of that
objective that when the Harold
Ware group was organized in 1884
to infiltrate high offices in gov
eminent, the training ground was
the A.A.A. and the Nye committee,
and then the Communists concen-
trated in three areas: The State
Department, The Treasury and The
CLIO.
In the State Department and the
Treasury, these Communists de-
voted themselves largely to the
China problem. Their object was
to eliminate the Nationalist Gov
eminent of China and to subsr.-
tute for it Soviet China, headed
by Russian trained Chinese Com
munlsts.
Within the United States, they
devoted themselves to giving Chang
Kai-Shek a bad name, particularly
as the head of a corrupt clique in
capable Of action. They termed
the Chinese Communists "Agrar-
ian Reformers.' Corruption of
public officials in China is norm
al condition, existing throughout
China's history. In fact, the sal
ary-scale for officials and the
method of collecting taxes has
always been based on the assump-
ton that squeeze" exists. There
fore, the opponents to the Ma
tionalists had plenty of material
for their accusations.
At any rate, they succeeded in
| turning American opinion away
from Chang Kai-Shek in spite OF
his heroic resistance to Commun7
ism. Until little more than "a
week ago, it remained American
policy to oppose Nationalist China
President Truman changed that

Nationalist China, which asked for
none of our sons, but only for
arms, munitions, supplies, money, in
1945, we should not today be fight

For five years, this column has

Korean War Capsules

Korean War Capsules
Truman's Cabinet Lunch-Presi-
dent Truman held an important
lunch with his cabinet last week
at which he expressed very frank
fears about the current situation
especially what Korea might do
to the American economy. He was
particularly worried about initiation
and expressed the hope that no
panic-buying or boarding of scarce
materials should take place among
industry or consumers. Truman
has ordered the National Security
Resources Board to go about in
planning what must be done i'm
mediately if it looks like Korea
would develop into world war.
Britain Wakes Up-Up to last
week end the British Foreign Office
was putting heavy pressure on
France and Egypt to agree TO seat
the Chinese Communists in the
United Nations. Bevin thought
this would bring Moscow back into
the U. N. and help compose the
worlds differences. However the
British Foreign Office is now ex-
pected to abandon its misplaced
efforts, and withdraw recognition
from Red China altogether
Begged Down In China-Some of
Americas top diplomats are Sec
reilly fearful that the real motive
behind the Communist attack on
Korea is Moscow's hope to in
volve the United States in a mil
itary campaign against the Chinese
Communists Moscow is re-
ported to believe that a war be-
tween the U. S. and China would
last for generation, would sap AM
erica's strength to the point where
we could not resist Russian ad-
yances in other parts of the world
This was one reason Chang
Kai-Shek's offer to send troops to
South Korea was promptly vetoed.
