Realistic Frenchman

Not long ago a big French cham pagne producer asked friend Of mine:
 What's America going to do to defend France?"
 What's France going to do to defend itself?" replied my friend.
 Nothing" was the Frenchmans reply.
 He was both accurate and real istic.
 France has made important gains under the Marshall Plan. But the man in the street doesn't realize it. He doesn't realize that most oi the bread he eats comes from the the LISA, or that much of the

 In it's most recent publication on American tor- o;o, rorcv the Department of State makes point bout the conflict between the peoples of the West and the East
 "The deepening division between the Soviet-doml- mated boc and the free world is not, as some people wrongly think a conflict between capitalism and Communism says this document
 .The conflict is really between a power-hungry ,orrmen+ that is bent on spreading it's power by force terror and every other means, and the com unitv of free nations which refuses to be conquered or dominated or to stand by and see its members swallowed up.'
 It is point of view worth rememDerlhg. Su' ., foot that Communism is the vehicle the power brngrv. government employs is something not to be forpotten in anybody's calculations.

current French prosperity comes from Uncle Sam. He is not un- friendly to the U.S.A.-just cynical and fed up with talk of war. He has fought too many times, and when the next war comes, he plans to sit it out. The Marshall Plan, he feels, was great thing for the factory owner and the government. It rebuilt the big war plants and helped his boss. But what did 1t do for his wages? They are still low. Actually the Marshall Plan has accomplished it's main glol. Without it all western Europe would have gone Communist long ago. But in countries which have not tasted Communist rule, some people think the Communist eXper- iment might be worth trying. They don't know what happened Ill Czechoslovakia.
 Elsewhere in Europe conditions are about the same. .The two countries working hardest to help themselves are the Dutch and Nor wegians. But the Norwegian mln- ister Of defense says prlvately {: "We are now spending four to five percent of our budget on armament. If we increase to p percent, as the United States wants us to, we undo all the good effects of the Marshall Plan. We reduce our standard of living back to what it was before ECA. In brief, if we have to in- crease armament as you want us to. it may mean that Norway pulls out of the North Atlantic Pact. We adopted it by a narrow margin anyway" sentiment is similar in other European countries. This is bad news, but it is better to know it now than later.
 Prosperous Belgium has become the envy of Europe. This is the worst thing that could happen to the U.S.A., for Belgium did not fight. When the enemy approached, King Leopold surrendered. Now Belgium, with no reconstruction problem, blooms like a rose. Other nations, watching Belgium

That is the new and official name

Complaints from at home and
