Keeping IN Touch With Washington
Fear Communist Control
OF Asia Food Supply

WASHINGTON, D. C.-In the
eyes of foreign agricultural experts
Of the U. S. department of agricul-
tare, the really terrifying problem
posed by the conflict in Korea is
that communism will take posses
sion of the food supply of Asia.
Reporting on this. Stanley An
drews. director of USDA's Of
fee of foreign agricultural re-
lations. points out that Russia.
since l945. has come into pos
session of the surplus food pro-
ducing areas of central and
western Europe-eastern Ger
many. Poland. east Austria and
the Danube basin.
AS result, nearly so percent of
the dollars which the United States
has contributed to European recov-
cry has been spent for agricultural
products. There has been only a
trickle of food from the Iron Curtain
countries into western Europe dur
ing the past five years.
While this has benefited surplus
food producing areas of the United
States, it is, in the eyes of Andrews.

proportion of our farm prosperity
during the past five years has been
financed indirectly from the United
States treasury"
I'VE have" he said, "been provid-
ing the money with which western
Europe bought much of our farm
products"
But to Andrews the picture in Asia
is different.

to the western world in the creeping
tide of communism threatening to
overrun south and southeast Asia.

the really terrifying problem posed
by the present conflict in Korea and
the Far East is that communism win
overrun and take possession of the
rice bowl of Asia-Burma, Indo-
China and Siam.
''We doubt seriously whether India
and Pakistan with their multimil-
lions, Japan with her teeming
crowded islands, or even the Phil
ippines and the United States of
Indonesia, can resist the pressure
of this drive of communism in the
Far East if the areas from which
they must draw to make up their
food deficits fall into communist
hands,"
Turning to Europe, Andrews said
that if we are to save western Eu-
ropes economic and political sta
bility without continuous drain on
the American treasury we must
establish trade on an honorable and
equal basis so Europe can pay for
what they must buy from us.
Nothing" he declared, 'could be
more disastrous to the political and
economic stability of western Europe
than to have the food deficit nations
of Europe, in order to live, forced
to trade with Russia and her satel-
lites on their terms.
''The same can almost be said for
the new and free sovereign coun-
tries of the Far East"

Much has been said in these
columns and elsewhere about
the attitudes of and toward chill
dren. Today we want to men
ton one of the most forceful fac
tors which impress children
parents.
"As the twig is bent so shall
the tree grow" Children are
most impressionable from birth
to the age of six years. From
six until twelve years the i'm
pressions gained earlier are &C.
mented. It behooves parents to
subjugate themselves - make
sacrifices to give up pleasures
and other rights if need be
to the rearing of their young
ones. Parents should have a
religion and practice it, as this
is one of the best means of
giving children a sense of Sc
curity. They must show at least
a minimum of affection and re-
gard for each other in the pres
ence of children; settle any diff
ferences when the children are
not present. Both must show
love and solicitude for children
by word and action.
With these few basic princi-
pies honestly carried out chill
dren have a wonderful start in
life. To keep on as the children
grow, practice tolerance at
home = tolerance toward your
neighbor who may have a diff
ferent color skin, a religion
other than your own, a political
viewpoint at variance to yours.
Profanity has no place within
the walls of your home; avoid
it. Little pitchers have big
ears" In homes where either or
both parents cannot handle IL
quor it should not be used. 1t
is criminal to neglect children
because of a craving for intoxi,
cants. We hope we have no read
r in that category, but if we
have we suggest now you make
a solemn promise to avoid
liquor. Whatever it takes in will
power will reward you an untold
number of times.
Give the youngsters RESPONSE
bilities within their age limits,

didates campaigning for office?
Certainly in the 1947 campaign
there was not a noticeable furry
shown in Seward by campaign
ers.
Why, do you suppose, has
Seward been beseiged with
politicians of both sides this
year? Why all the sudden inter-
est down here? What is the ex-
element? I'll tell you. Seward
area was suddenly discovered to
have a verified population of
close to 5000 persons. In Seward
alone, a population of 2065, this
being a resident and not a tran
sient community, should produce
at least 900 VOTES. That is the
reason, and the ONLY reason,
for the sudden excited interest
in Seward. 1t is not because we
are nice people, and all the can
didates want to do something
nice, just for us! 1t is only be-
cause there are SO many of us,
and we can PROVE it by the
number of VOTES we cast, re-
gardless of party.
It makes little difference for
Seward HOW you vote, the
VOTE is the thing. Make it your
number one project to get to the
polls next Tuesday. Any vote is
a vote for Seward!
