were denied.
The result is a muddle Of much
talk, little action, and disillusion-
ment among sincere Iranians at
the failure of United States lead
ership in a critical time.
Many Western observers COM
pare the combination of Iranian
corruption and American inde-
cision with what happened In
China. The State Department
they say fearing congressional
criticism, hesitated to spend more
money in Iran. For want OF
genuine United States assistance
Iran began drifting away from
the West and into a weak neutral
Iity.
Iran simply can't be neutral y
said one Western diplomat. "She
/ is too valuable a prize. The way
things are going. neutrality will
turn into cooperation with Russia
any time she raises her voice."
Better conditions for Trans II
million people-about 80 per cent
illiterate and poverty stricken
are needed to bolster the nation
against the Communist blandish-
lments. But in the past five years
conditions worsened.
Only the Russians profit. Their
strategy now seems to be to lull
Iran with soft words of friendship
waiting for the day when the
masses will welcome communism
as a promise of relief from grind
ing poverty.
The strategy seems effective
Last fall, the Soviets offered q
$40 million trade pact on a barter
basis. Iranians whooped with re-
lief. Leftists said this proved Rus.

Uoice Of Ms People
To Voters of the Port Clinton
School District:

! To Voters of the Port Clinton
School District:
When you go to the polls or
November sixth you will be calico
upon to decide an issue of vita
importance to your local schoo
system.
Your Board has carefully stud
led the 1852 budget and we arc
convinced that if we arc to pro
vide the type of education thai
we believe yot' want for your chill
dren it will be necessary to ash
for more money.
1t has been the policy of the
Board to spend as wisely and ju.
dicially as possible without low
cring the quality of education of
fered. This l believe is Substanti-
ated by the fact that the average
cost of education in the exempted
villages of Ohio for 195O-1951 was
$16704. and in the cities $184 AZ
per child enrolled. The cost in
the Port Clinton System was
$16129 per child.
Let us remember that educa-
ton is vital and important busi-
ness in our community To Sc
cure our help, our teachers, main
tenancc men and laborerS we find
ourselves in direct competition
with industry. Unless we can
compete with industry we car
not expect to have teachers in oul
class rooms or maintenance mon
for our buildings and grounds.
The problem of financing edu
cation is not only a local problem
nor is it only state problem. but
it is national in scope. This yeal
more than ever voters will hc
called upon to provide additional
revenue for the maintenance and
support of their schools.
When you go to the polls or.
November sixth you will have the
opportunity to vote upon schoo'
levy of five mills for five years
Please remember that three mill}
are renewal, only two mills ad
ditional.
We know we can count upor
your support if the problem fac
ing us is thoroughly understood
Watch the local papers and schoo
bulletins for further information

Actually. OPS has made some
headway in curbing the upward
price Spiral. The upward trend Of
prices. based on the greatest mar.
gins of profits in history. has at
least been halted. And the hope of
OPS is that the price index gradu-
ally will be rolled back to some-
where near pre-Korean levels.
However because of several fac
tors, mainly the tremendous in
crease in the national income and a
higher standard Of living, this may
not be possible.
II must be remembered that OPS
Is only one factor in curbing prices.
Several other operations are In
volved. One Is directly up to con.
gress itself to drain off excess pur-
chasing power in higher taxes. An
other is the function of the federal
board in curbing inflationary cred
its such as installment credits and
charge accounts. Another is up to
the treasury. in draining off more
purchasing power in the sale Of
defense bonds.
And the most important Of all Is
the self-discipline of the American
people themselves in a time of
national emergency. For without
this self-imposed restraint. the pro-
grams of none of these government
, c9encies set up TO protect the peo-
pie VIM -"cceed.

whenever any augmentation Is
brought into play there are roper
cussions all along the line and
from every section Of the country.
But there are times, there have
been times of emergency in our
history when the people have given
up some Of their personal freedoms
for q limited period in order to
protect greater and overall free
Idoms. One of those times is now,
when the nation faces a grave peril.
The current stress and crisis has
been responsible for passage by the
congress of the National Production
Act of 1850, an act which expires
June 80 and the extension of which
congress now is in the process OF
debating.
Title 4 of the National Production
Act sets up a system CT emergency
wage and price controls. Under
provisions of this section, the Office
of Price Sterilization was inaugu-
rated by presidential order as pro-
vided in the act. Chosen to head up
