LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

ed to you for help whenever he was in
any kind of trouble, and you are forced
to say: Son, maybe you wouldn't be
here like this if your Dad had had the
CUTS to speak up and fight to save you
from this dreadful fate while there
was still time"
Every person who heard him was
deeply moved, I am sure. With lad
of our own barely two short and God
knows how troubled years away from
that fatal command: Report to your
nearest draft board" I spent most of
the night thinking harder than I ever
had before in my life, and now in the
early morning hours 1 am writing
down, in all earnestness and sincerity,
an idea which believe is practical and
the least we parents can do for these.
our beautiful and beloved sons, before
they too are helplessly entangled in
Charley Wilson'S bloody schemes, for
greater profits. Suppose your son
were unjustly accused of some crime
you would fight to the limit of your
resources to save him from disgrace
and Jail. How much more strenuously
should you be expected to fight to save
him from the horror of unjust war,
from being forced to contribute to the
wholesale murder of innocent natives,
from probable suffering and death to
HIMSELF
Therefore, when Charley Wilson
stretches out a long finger dripping
with the blood of uncounted thousands
of other American boys as well as I'M
counted millions of Korean and Chi
nese patriots, taps YOUR son on the
shoulder and says: Drop everything
you want to do, kid. It's your turn in
now suggest that you his
go with him to said draft
board and lay down some conditions,
like this:
Here we are, two honest patriotic
American parents, with our son, whom
you claim should get into the army. |
This is our boy. and this a serious de-
mand you are making of him. He is
only lad, too young to marry with |
put our consent; too young to vote. |
In life and death matter like this, we |
feel it is our duty to speak for him.
We are willing to have him fight ON |
AMERICAN SOIL, if and when we are
attacked. We don't wish to be spared |
1T his expense while he is stopping the
enemy if any, some place else. If you
eel we must be prepared to defend
'ur shores, we consent to his sacri-
ice of a year or so of his time for
hat purpose. But he has a lot to do
light now, just out of high school and

Helena, Montana
Dear Editor: 1t was my privilege to
sit in on the special meeting of the
Butte Miners Union and hear Harry
Bridges and his attorney, Vincent Hal
linin. Bridges is a racy and fascinat-
ing speaker-one could listen to him
all night. I'd like to write a column on
his description of his trip to Washing
ton to inform the WSB big shots that
his union would tolerate no interfer-
ence with the pension plan it had ne
gotiated and of his hour and half in
terview with Charles Wilson, the real
president of the United States, says
Harry Bridges.
But Hallinin brought up a subject
that requires immediate attention. He
too pointed out that less than one
tenth of one per cent of u.s. as repre-
scented by Charles Wilson, have literal
ly stolen the real powers of govern
ment and our elected representatives
are mere puppets who carry out their
orders. q could write another column
on how neatly our own Misrepresenta-
tive Mansfield fits into this sordid pic
ture.)
Mr.. Hallinin gave documented state
ment on how the United States, with
Charles Wilson at the controls, is be-
coming increasingly isolated among
the so-called free democracies" in its
pursuit of world domination, and how
the Korea-type form of Saving civili-
cation" is beginning to boomerang. He
described reporting a conversation with
a d1spairing young major returned
from Korea, just what this adventure
of Charley's means to our youth 1t
was a description that clutched at the
stomach and stung the eye1ids and
gave force to his closing argument-a |
blistering rebuke to the mothers and |
fathers of America, who have stood |
by and permitted their sons to |
be carried off into the captivity of that |
holocaust of horror. He put it some
thing like this
1T is tough to be called a red for
daring to speak out against unjust war:
1t is tougher to may be lose your job
and go hungry; but far far the tough
est thing you will ever be called upon
to face is to stand by a sealed casket
shipped to you from some foreign land
and be told that the scraps and frag-
ments of flesh therein is all that re-
mains of your son, and you think back
TO when he was a little lad and he look

We Trust 1t Won't Expire
Editor, Peoples Voice
Helena, Montana

Editor, Peoples Voice
Helena, Montana
Dear Editor: I have been in the habit
of reading your paper in the public Ii
brary for quite a long time. 1t has
occurred to me many times to subscribe,
but until now never seemed to be able
to make it.
Finally as the enclosed two bucks
indicate, I am at last a subscriber to
one of the few papers in Montana not
bearing allegiance to that gang of
profit gouging, wage chiseling, reac-
tionary rascals who have confused and
misled so many people through their
controlled publicity channels
1 have some doubt, however, about
how long they are going to let you get
by with it. But when and if freedom
of expression expires in Montana, |
trust it will draw its last breath in your
office. Best regards-JOHN d. LUCK

Congress reluctance to appropri-
ate more money than it has to
for non-defense expenditures
Every attempt Is being made to
trim down the administration
SITS billion budget.
However, most members Of Con-
gress are aware Of the plight OF
the Governments salaried en-
ployes to keep abreast Of rising
living costs. And the fact that
the Government has approved a
wage increase formula for private
industry also has left its impres-
sions on Senators and Represen-
tativeS.
AS a result, sentiment is slowly
developing for some kind of a
Federal pay raise, but for a very
small one. It's felt that any IL
per cent increase or even a 10
per cent boost would be much toe
costly.
Congress itself would like to
raise its members salaries and this
move may be made as part of the
Federal enploye pay legislation.
Still another factor is the sup
port of Robert Ramspeck, the new
chairman Of the Civil Service
Commission. for some kind of a
Federal pay raise. Mr.. Ramspeck,
a former Democratic whip Of the
House, has tremendous influence
on Capitol Hill and his views will
be given heavy consideration.

0usting Of Macarthur
BY the Assoeia.sd Pres,


RICHMOND. Va. April 49,
The manner in which President
Truman relieved Gen. Macarthur
has been condemned by the, Execu-
tive Committee Of the Virginia
department of the Anlvets. Earlier,
the national headquarters of
Amvets had approved the Presi-
dents action.
At a special meeting here yes
terday, the State Committee OF
the American Veterans of World
War II said the Presidents con-
stitutional authority could not be
challenged, "but the wisdom OF
the move can be seriously
questioned" A series of resolu-
|tions also contended:
The Presidents "inept" han
ding Of the situation could also
lead to disunity and bitterness
among the American people; Gen.
MacArthur's dismissal may have
Ia bad effect on the Japanese
people and on "all the other ma
ltions of the Far East"
The dismissal may destroy the
work done by Gen. Macarthur
with the Japanese: the "docu-
Iments and evidence which have
thus far been made public do not
support the charge of fragrant

Radio S Future Safe
Despite Gains by N,
Broadcasters Say
BY the Asseeiofsd Press

CHICAGO. April 49, Radio
broadcasters in convention here
expressed complete confidence to-
day that there is room for both
radio and television to flourish.
They cited statistics to show for
all of television's spectacular
gains, radio has continued to
grow and has confounded fore
casters who predicted it would be
killed by video.
Attending the annual meeting
Of the National Association Of
Radio and Television Broadcast
|ers. they were spurred to defense
of their form Of ,broadcasting by
concern lest a radio rate reduc-
ton to sponsors by the Columbia
Broadcasting System start a trend,
The CHS cut. which affiliated sta
tions must take in their pay for
carrying network programs, be-
comes effective July /. Although
not on the formal agenda. the rate
question overshadowed all other
topics at the convention.
Sponsors and the Association Of
National Advertisers have been
pressing for some time for a re-
duction in radio rates on the
grounds that television has cut
sharply into radio listening. But
"a spot check among radio broad
casters here indicated that few II
any plan to follow the CHS lead
and a number reported recent
radio rate increases.
Broadcasters said that without
minimizing television's spectacu-
lar growth, 1t can be shown that
radio is far from being on the
skids.
They said that in 1850, tele-
visions biggest year to date, the
American public bought II mil
lion new radio sets or nearly
twice as many as television sets
sold. Ninety-f1ve per cent OF
American homes have radios, and
there are about 100 million sets
in use, including IS million In
automobiles.
The broadcasters met with the
Government and military officials
for discussions of the role of ra-
dio and television in the mobiliza-
ton program. Tomorrow they
will be addressed by Gen. Bradley
chairman of the Joint Chiefs oi
Staff, on the Korean situation.
