The Truman State
Welfare or Warfare?

Here's breakdown of the federal
budget submitted by President Tru-
man to Congress, in terms of what it
will cost you:
Out of every dollar deducted from
your paycheck for income tax
80 cents would go for ornaments
and military expenditures.
ii cents would go for carrying out
the Bipartisan" foreign policy-an-
other way of saying "cold war"
13 cents would go to pay interest
on the national debt.
IS cents would go to veterans.
% cents would go for miscellaneous
expenditures, chiefly the operation of
the government.
6 cents would go for social welfare.
To allow for increased military ex-
penditures, the per cent allowed for
social welfare was pared down even
below the 7.8 per cent Truman asked
for this item year ago.
Truman called for IL billion dol
lars to be spent for ornaments and
military purposes in 1850, and said
expenditures for foreign military as
sistance should be almost twice as
great in 1851 as it will be in 1850.
All told, 70 per cent of Truman's
budget would go for paying off the
cost of past wars and carrying on the
present "cold war;" THE UNION,
IUMM&SW.

U, S, AIDS FASCISM

The State department, the US
Navy. the House of Representatives,
the Senate, and also the two biggest
newspaper chains, Hearst and How
ard, are aidirg fascism today, as sew
eral of them have in the past. This
time it is Franco.
Newspaper reports from Madrid
agree that the current visit of Amer
lean warships, has done more to boil
ster the fascist regime than any ac-
ton in years.
Following the visit of the fleet, Adj
miral Richard Connolly paid visit
to Franco and the respects of the
US Navy. The US Army was repre-
scented by Major General Harper, the
us Air Force by Brigadier General
Richie.
Will Confer on Loan
Congressman Murphy (NY) of the
House Merchant Marine Committee,
announced as he sailed for Europe
September 6 he would confer with
Franco about loan because of the
strategic position of Spain in the
event of war" Murphy said eight
members of congress would meet with
Franco. Loan for Franco was mar
rowly defeated in Senate last month.
NY Daily Compass reported Aug
ust 26 that Senate subcommittee on
armed services, 10 strong, plans junk
ct to Madrid to aid dictator.-LN

overlords surely can't be so yellow
that they are afraid that this small
group of fine men and women can
overturn the government by force.
Such an assertion is an insult to our
intelligence The real reason for the
persecution is their desire to crush
the political freedom of our nation.
They want to decide just what we
must think. We must use our heads
only as receptacles for hair oils and
kept press propaganda.
Ours is the best kind of govern
mentor parasites-that was ever
concocted, and they want to retain it.
In the near future we must expect
plenty of lies and more and more per-
secutions from the cruel aristocracy
that has got us in its grip.-H.L. Cas-
cade County.

Reader Speaks Forth
In Defense of Members
OF Communist Party

Who are these Communists that
they are everyday throwing slurs at
over the radio and in the kept press?
We know that some of the greatest
scientists and some of the greatest
writers throughout the world are
Communists. We know that many
university professors are Commun-
lists, and the rest of our Commies ap-
pear to be men and women of almost
as high class; people of the type that
any nation which has not lost all
sense of decency, should respect.
They are people with brains enough
to see the right, and backbone enough
to fight for it. There is supposed
to be about 10000 of them-one per-
son out of 2, 143.
They believe that ours is a gov
eminent of the people, by the peo-
pie, and for the people. AS such it is
not only their privilege but their duty
to help make the country a better
place in which to live. They have
been unable to find any place in our
Constitution where it says that they
must entertain only such economic
views as are sanctioned by big bust
ness.
They see a nation ruled by a vic
ious and INSCRIPTIONS gang of super
gangsters who keep themselves in
power by means of propaganda
campaign of lies, innuendo and mis-
- a1.n
allowed no chance to get the truth.
They see a nation with millions of
unemployed and millions being fore
ed into crime. They look at our Ma
tional Capital and see graft, corrup-
ton. legislative inefficiency, ignor-
ance of economics, and an abject sub
seryience to the dictates of big bust
ness.
With their analytical minds they
can see that it is the unpurchasable
surplus which is an memorable con-
comitant of the Capitalistic econ
omies, that is forcing these nations
into bankruptcy. They have seen
these nations wage wars, in which
millions have been butchered, in their
desperate efforts to find markets for
their SURPRISES, and they know that
a socialistic economy would be an eff
fective remedy for the problems due
to the SURPRISES.
They can see that such countries
are not only financially bankrupt,
out also morally bankrupt, as clearly
shown by their political prosecutions.
The persecution on triumph up char
res, of this pitifully small group of |
nigh class men and women who are
calamity and unselfishly striving to
make this a better nation for US to
i've in, is so rotten that it is ma
ional disgrace. Our Wall Street |

By LOWNDES MAURY

The United States News, owned by
David Lawrence, Republican pub
Usher and editor, somewhat independ-
ent, and not as some such, that are
so given to mendacity, that they
choose to lie even when the truth
would serve their purpose better,
reached, on February 10th, a point
in public intelligence that the Peoples
Voice had gained almost two years
ago. The News said:
Truman doctrine, containment of
Russia is joke.
From the same weekly it appears
that the Soviet production for 1949
compared with 194S showed gains IN
1949-coal, up Is per cent; oil, up
Ia per cent; cotton fabrics, up IA per
cent; electric power, up Is per cent;
machine tools up 10 per cent; leather
shoes, up % per cent; steel, up 25
percent, tractors, up 55 per cent.
Six months ago Britain bought of
Russia 100000 tons of grain. That
would indicate a large increase in
Soviet crops. The cattle stock has
not yet recovered from the German
invasion.
The same foreign journalist who
predicted seven months ahead that
the Soviets would in September de-
tomato an Atom bomb in their work
of turning the Oh and Yenisei Rivers
from Arctic tundras on to the par
ched plains near the Caspian and
Aral Seas, now announces that the
Russians already have the Hydrogen
Bomb. This journalist claims to have
reliable information from Moscow.
The method of making Hydrogen
Bomb has been quite well and widely
known for some years.
"Wishful Thinkers"
Mr.. Truman and his advisers are
wishful thinkers. They are not rea-
lists. They do not face facts bravely
as the Kremlin does. AS far as 'con-
tanning Communism" goes, all the !
$40 billion, stript from farm and |
factory in America, dumped in China,
Japan, Greece, Turkey, Western
Europe, Britain, is money not just |
wasted. 1t has caused half the World |
to hate and laugh at America.
The Vatican last Fall in its official
newspaper, Osservatore Romano said
that armament races invariably lead
to war. That writer was viewing only
past world events. War is now too |
deadly. l think this maxim should |
be modified. Armament races newt
ably lead to war, or an economic
breakdown, government bankruptcy.
The only danger of a general wars
breaking out is that the Kremlin or
may become insane. AS
the U. S. News says last week, and as
the Peoples Voice has said months
ago, not nation in Europe would
Join US in a Soviet war. Every mem
Der of the Atlantic Pact, except
Canada, would announce neutrality
IN two hours. The Atlantic Pact for

it is only clever ruse for getting
our money.
While our need for foreign mar
kets is increasing to the point of
causing a depression, and our money
is going to build up British output
of factory products, Britain has rec
ognized Communist China and is
flooding China with merchandise,
building up her old China trade.
Britain is probably selling Communist
China gunboats to invade Formosa.
We are sending planes and tanks and
bombs to Chang to defend the
Island. At the same time, Chiang's
pirates are firing on American mer-
chant ships trying to enter Shang-
hal.
We claim that we respect the United
Nations and would help make it a
world power, the Parliament of Man.
We still fight to maintain the seat of
Chiang's stragglers there speaking
for China. This conduct on our part
shows the outside world that the
United Nations has become little more
than a propaganda organ for Wash
ington. Is it sane to pretend that the
United Nations is a world power,
when we exclude all representation
of $50 million people seeking to
enter? And these are people that
for a thousand years have not left
their own country to wage war. We
howl about Communist China treat
ing our consuls with indignity. Two
years ago we were where we had no
business supplying American planes
and pilots to bomb these Communists.
Britain had brains enough not to
enter that war, nor bet on a spawned
horses. No British consuls seem un-
welcome nowadays in China.
We Need FDR's Faith
Mr.. Roosevelt and Premier Stain
both believed and said that Com
munism and Capitalism can exist
at peace in the same world.
Our press has built up a belief
in our people that we are a superior
race, that the Russians and Poles
and Czechs are our interiors in cul-
5ure and intelligence.
The Asiatics in the Soviet Union
are still backward peoples. But that
is not true of the Russian people in
Europe.
Our own Northern culture stems
from, is based largely on, the culture
IF Western Europe. 1t has been fed
for generations by a steady stream
If immigrants. (The Southern United |
States culture is English). For two
hundred years European Russians
lave been in as close contact with !
he culture of Western Europe as
ourselves. German, French, Czech,
Italian tutors taught the youth of the
and owners under the Cars. These
antilles usually spoke to each French,
russian to their servants or serfs.

so | cannot give fair Judgment on
whether, on the wide front, we are
decadent or advancing. There are
symptoms of decadence.
Great iteratures, poetry, drama,
novels have sprung up just after
nations have won great wars. The
conquest of Troy inspired the still
living poems of Homer. The dramas
of Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides,
followed fast the victories of Greeks
over Persia. Read once more the
victory song of Deborah in Holy Writ
Judges W The works of Marlowe,
Ben Johnson, Shakespeare followed
the sinking of the Spanish Armada.
After Waterloo came Byron, Shelley,
Keats, Burns and the Scott, Dickens,
Thackery.
So far, since our recent victory,
nothing has appeared in American
Literature to thrill us much, or arrest
attention elsewhere. "Gone With the
Wind" came out in 1886. I'm our
fashion of hurrying to get nowhere,
its author was killed by a drunken
cab driver, who had previously been
corrected, but not stopped).
Mediocrity is enthroned.
Our claim to world prestige rests
only on our arms and our wealth.
The only man in public life with valid
claim to greatness, or even outlook
on the world, is excluded from nation
al councils: Henry Wallace, of course.
In the days when Athens was the
home of the supreme culture of all
time and place, and also ruling the
Mediterranean world, Pericles 'who
found it of brick, and left it of
marble" reminded his fellow citizens
"Not in her ships, nor in her walls,
but in her men lies the glory of
Athens"
Parnell Thomas, before he was
caught stealing from the Treasury,
got more flattery from the Press
than Mr.. Justice Holmes ever re-
ceived.
Our rulers see ghosts, hear burglars
under the bed, ferret out witches, be-
cause they know around the corner
from Their folly turks a breakdown.
That this, the most powerful, richest
nation in the world has ever known,
cannot long endure the drain of
their fantastic waste and foreign
folly.

My people in Virginia thought that

Nothing but hatred, ridicule, con-

And now, just as a million earnest
americans are struggling in vain to

bad accident.
She was following them on the

path of an oncoming trailer-truck.
