Message Stresses
Defense Of Europe
AS Vitul for u. S.
By Joseph A. Fox

President Truman today warned
of the deadly challenge" of COM
munism as he gave Congress a
10-point program of legislation to
build the strength of the free
world. and coupled with it a plea
for national unity and an indict-
ment of isolationism.
Delivering his annual message
on the State of the Union to a
PIone Output Rising TO 10 Times Rote of
Lost June. Poee "A
joint session of Senate and House
of the new 82d Congress, the Pres
ident declared:
"All free nations are exposed
and are in peril. Their only
security lies in banding together
No one nation can find protection
in a selfish search for a safe haven
from the storm. 80.
"Strategically. economically and
morally the defense of Europe is
part of our own defense. That is
why we have Joined with the
countries of Europe in the North
Atlantic treaty.
That was his plain answer to
criticism of American foreign pol
icy.
The President sketched his leg
islative program only in broad
outlines, explaining that the gaps
would be filled in by succeeding
messages-principally the eco
nonic and budget messages which
will be forthcoming in the next
week.
Lists Legislation Needed.
Making it clear that the Fair
Deal is not to be neglected-de-
spite the fact that the admins
tration must cope with reduced
majoritieS in both Senate and
House as the result of the No
vember election. the President
listed the following as the main
subjects" on which legislation will
be needed for the vast mobiliza-
ton effort:
l. Appropriations for the mil
itary buildup.
2. Extension and revision of
the Selective Service Act.
3. Military and economic aid
for the rest of the free world.
4. Revision and extension of
authority to expand production
and stabilize prices, wages and
rents.
5. Improvement of agricultural
laws to encourage production for
the defense effort.
6. Improvement of labor laws
to insure stable labor manage
ment relations and provide for
steady production.
7. Housing and training of de-
fense workers, and full use of
ali manpower.
8. Increasing the supply of doc
tors, nurses and other trained
medical personnel critically need
ed for defense.
9. Aid to States for elementary
and secondary schools.
10. Major increases in taxes.
Still Hopes for Peace.
While, however. stresslng pre-
paredness effort that contem-
plates such production goals as
$4,000 planes and $4,000 tanks
annually-if needed-the Presi-
dent continued to hold out hopes
of peace with Russia, but without
appeasement.
But he warned 1--WE will fight, if
fight we must, to keep our free
dom and to prevent justice from
being destdoyed."
THE Soviet rulers have made
it clear that we must have
strength as we'll as right on our
side" he said. ''If we build our
strength-and we are building it
the Soviet rulers may face the
facts and lay aside their plans to
take over the world"
In the message, which was
broadcast, televised and beamed
to many countries overseas by the
Voice of America, the President
told Congress the task ahead is
as grave as any faced in history

Enlistment Problems Serious.
Gen. Evans told the committee
that reserve units, which must be
