Since his brilliant advance in North
Korea turned into boomerang, Gen
eral MacArthur's doing in Korea has
come under close re-examination.
Was it a mere coincidence for him
to jump the gun in sending troops
into Korea before the UN gave him
orders to do so? Or could it be but
part of prearranged plan worked
out with or without White House APP
prevail? He made three costly mill
tary blunders since June oath and
is now calling for help. While flying
almost at will over the Manchuria
border, he misinterpreted Red China s
warning to keep off the border until
it was too late to retreat If he doesn't
know more what is going on in Vladi-
vostok and Khabarosk than he did
about Manchuria, he is in a poor po-
Sition to read the riot act now. AS
he can drop the A-bomb within an
hours notice, so can the Red banner
army in Siberia.
Crystal Ball Gazing
The Stockholm Peace Petition will

settle down to peaceful pursuits. This

patriots who see more money in war.
More and more countries will join
up with the group of Ireland, Sweden
and Switzerland to stay clear of the

Meat packers and two leading
chain store retailers were brought
before the Senate Agricultural Com
mittee in September in an effort to
determine why meat prices have been
soaring.
Both groups said the housewife has
final say in the price of beefsteak,
and that there is no need for price
controls. Committee members were
unable to discover why the price of
sirloin increased from SO cents to
$1.10 during one week in July.
Representative of both APP and
Safeway chain stores said the price
of meat depends upon how we'll they
sell. Popular cuts are expensive, and
slow-moving cuts cheaper.-N. E.

situation.

Tse-Tung and the Reds
Ten years ago Mao Tse-tung and
his followers were classed as bandits
and prize put on their heads. They
were told by Kai-shek: clay down
your arms and join my army and the
past will be forgotten" They were in
a precarious position then, not any
too we'll dressed with only captured
weapons and no Russian backing, yet
they refused the offer to a man.
Would it be logic for them now to pull
out of Korea and then negotiate
peace terms. 1t doesn't make sense.
Pyongyang has been lost and re-
captured by the Reds, only to be
ghost town with public utilities and
electrical installations destroyed and
most of the homes in ashes. To poison
the wells would be contrary to civil
lied warfare, instead women and
children are left to freeze to death
by the thousands. What horrible
joke on civilization.

Including Syngman Rhee) and is now
facing Dunkirk evacuation, which
means goodby to Korea and our hope
for a foothold there. If forced out,
it is not likely we will try to re-oc-
cupy it in the foreseeable future.
We never learned thing in our deal
ings with the Chinese and cannot
reconcile ourselves to the fact that
they are human beings, including the

treated with kindness, but firmness,
like treating children in order to get
good results. To have a commander
tell the U. S. how to treat half the
worlds population is taking in lots
of territory and may not work out
in the end.

My "Two-Bit's Worth"
BY LEVERNE HAMILTON,
Thompson Falls


"Oh, wad some power the giftie
gle us,
T'see ourselves as ithers see u.s."
Bobbie Burns certainly had some
thing in that thought even though
the subject of his ode was only a
louise.
1t might be blessing if Ameri-
cans could pause in their pursuit of
the almighty dollar, or pleasure or
whatever chimera they happen to be
pursuing and take look at the pic
ture we as nation must present to
the other nations OF the world as we
strive to untangle the scrambled mess
which we have made in Korea.
In the first place we as a nation
had no business in Korea. The Japs
had been driven out and had we with
drawn our troops and permitted the
Koreans to settle their own internal
affairs we would have retained the
respect of both the opposing factions.
Instead of following that course how
ever we had to follow up and pro-
tect the investments of American cap
ital, thus the dislike of the proletar-
ian faction especially in North Ko-
rea.
Pursuing our course of protecting
American capital investments, which
by the way do not earn one red cent

By JOSEPH S. SMOLLACK,
Anaconda

Americans are looking for a solu-
ton to the pressing, vital problems
which plague us today. Yet, nowhere
among our national leaders does
there seem to be a definite answer
except resort to war and destruc-
ton. Already in our time we have
engaged in two world wars, without
doing any more than aggravating
the basic trouble. We have succeeded
in getting many thousands of our
people killed; we have deprived our
selves of many good things of life;
we have increased our debts and
wasted our resources wantonly-all
to prolong the Price System, on which
our business enterprise and our po
litical systems are based, and on which
they depend.
However, there is one Organiza-
ton that has a positive answer-an
answer that will enrich our lives and
make them more secure. This organi-
zation is Technocracy. 1t has an i'm
mediate program that will enable
this continent to become strong and
impregnable, and at the same time to
greatly improve the lot of its peo-
pie and ensure their future security.
Technocracy urges that the peo-
pie of North America adopt a pro-
gram of TOTAL CONSUMPTION, as
means of achieving rapid consoli-
dation and high efficiency in the me-
chanics of nation operation. This calls
persons in the United States and
Canada, the CONSUMPTION of all pro-
ductive equipment, the CONSUMPTION

of all money-with national service
from ALL and profits to none. Under
this program, all persons would be
provided the same pay and mainten-
ance as the men and women in the
Armed Forces. "Business-as-usual"
would be suspended, and all debts
and financial obligations would be
"quick frozen" for the duration of
the national emergency.
To illustrate how this would work
out, we can take food as an example.
Under TOTAL CONSUMPTION, the
United States and Canadian govern
ments would be the sole purchasers |
and distributors of food, in the same |
manner as is done on a smaller scale |
in the Armed Forces. The govern
ments would requisition the entire
output of the farms and food-pro-
cessing factories and this food mater
al would be assembled in central
From these, it would go
20 secondary distributing centers, and
from those to the restaurants, COM
nissaries and retail stores. Large
public eating places would be set up
20 serve food to large numbers of
people and high standard of prepa-
alton and service would be required.
All persons engaged in growing,
handling and serving food would be
IN the national payroll, the same as
he men in the Armed Forces and
lone of them would make a cent of
profit. All food would be distributed
o the consumer free, in the same way
hat food is distributed free to the
oldiers and sailors.
Other things-for example, cloth
ng, recreation, housing, tic. -
would be administered in a similar
manner. If national service, with
tut opportunity to make a profit,
