inquish the opportunity to carry the punitive expeo-
ton against the North Koreans into the iaters own
territory the UN may well wonder whether 1t has set
punitive precedent strong enough to discourage tu-
ture aggression.

will I'm forces follow them with view to destroying
their offensive power and SO preventing the posi-
bitv of another Red invasion of South Korea? VIII
I'm forces go beyond the 18th parallel even in the
event regular Russian forces have in the meantime
reoccuped North Korea? No one seems to know the
answers.
1t might on the surface in these trying days OF
American setbacks in South Korea, appear more i'm
porant to concentrate on repelling the Red invader
than to worry the questions that will arise from
the hoped-for Communist defeat. The tendency to
rnuddle through is natural one.
But the post-World War 1 has shown that
muddlng though is not enough. 1t was muddlng

Plight of Cotton Farmer

South Cardinals Senator Burnet
Maybank, chairman of the powerful
Senate Banking Committee spoke
up sharply about the plight of the
cotton farmer at closed-door
meeting with the Agriculture De-
partment's commodity boss Ralph
Trigg.
This whole cotton deal is dis
tinctly misunderstood, and I am
sick and tired of it," snorted May
bank. Nov, you produced $685.
0OO bales approximately last year,
did you not?"
THAT is correct" agreed Trigg.
And you have got the lowest
acreage on record for long, long
time, and you have had terribly
bad year with boil weevil infest-
ation,' continued the South Caro-
line Senator.
THAT is correct" Trigg nodded
again.
And if you rolled the price of
cotton back to June Is, it would
not be worth picking, and the
farmer would in some instances
have only a fourth of the crop, is
that right?" demanded Maybank,

POLICY NEEDED

An APP dispatch of recent date reports the pos
sibility that Russia in conjunction with Communist
China, may reoccupy that part of Korea which lies
north of the 18th parallel and which in the immediate
postwar period was under Russian occupation.
If Russia should carry out such a reoccupation
and if the tide of should turn in favor OF the
UN forces, the United Nations will be confronted
with the need for weighty decision. If they pursue
the North Korean aggressor into his own territory
beyond the 33th parallel, they will have to fight the
Russian occupation army in that area If they re-

Iron Curtain Chaff


Concrete evidence that the Chin
csc Communists are openly support
ing North Korea is contained in a
message from Chinese Communist
leader Mao tse-Tung to Korean
Prime Minister Kim II Sung. The
people in the just war against U. S.
imperialist aggression" wrote Mao
Political observers attach sig
nificance to reports from the Chin
csc capital indicating that Mao
-Tung left Peking on August IL
for an "unannounced destination. y
This could mean Moscow or
somewhere in Korea. The prestige
of the United Nations is still troubl-
ing Communist leaders, judging by
the fact that Americans are fighting
their propaganda efforts to conceal
the fact Americans are fighting
in Korea under the UN flag. ].
No reference is ever made to
United Nations authorization of
American action in Korea. .Des-
pite careful censorship, reports are
trickling through the Iron Curtain
that Communist officials must re-
sort to desperate measures to make
labor toe the mark. For example, in
Rumania, a recent law has made
illegal appropriation and negli-
gence at work" punishable by the
death penalty.

Economy Cut

President Truman won't take the
proposed 10 per cent, across-the-
board slash in government spending
with his bat on his shoulder
At a recent meeting with Federal
agency chiefs, Truman strongly in
dicated that he might send a special
message to Congress if the two
houses don't reconsider the 10 per
cent reduction.
This so-called economy cut is
one way to destroy government
agencies without outright abolition .

cripple an agency so badly by chop

not do the job. This is a grave
situation"

that his agency was engaged in

Chairman of the Federal Power
