FIRST FALSE ASSUMPTION
That Russia is all that stands be-
tween mankind and a stable peace"

That Russia is all that stands be-
tween mankind and stable peace"
Our glance at the actual condition
of mankind today should convince us
that, if all the Russians in the world
obligingly died this evening, and if
all the Communists of whatever race
were so kind as to commit suicide
tomorrow at noon sharp, the world
revolution for equality would not
stop. We should remember that the
backward" peoples are not only hum
cry and sick and desperate; they
now know that modern SCIENCE and
modern techniques make their hunger
and sickness unnecessary. If they find
that all the Communists have suddenly
and unaccountably died, they will
follow whoever else will promise to
do something about it. The Asians
and Africans will go on fighting or
planning to throw the white folks
out. The hungry will go on fighting
or planning to eat.
These peoples are in motion. You
and | want peace and quiet, so we
can enjoy our unbelievable stand
ard of living. They have nothing to
enjoy; so they want change.
In these circumstances, to sup
pose that these people would oblig-
ingly settle down, if we could just
make Russia behave, is to live in an
unreal world, not in the world that
exists today. To think, therefore,
that we can get stable world by
frightening or defeating Russia is
absurd.
On the other hand, to hope that
by being nice to Russia-and do
ing nothing else-we can have peace
in which to enjoy life in America
is equally absurd. Neither contain
ment" nor "appeasement" will bring
Us peace. Our only chance is to do
eomething about the real problem.
To do that, we must look, not only
at the Russians, but at the two bill
lion other people whom she offers to
rescue. What do they want? What
do they think has to be done to make
the world tolerable? For they might
he right. Why allow the Communists
~ be only people they can turn to
for understanding and action?

Europe. Even the backward" con-
tinents of Asia, Africa and South
America boast some excellent scien-
lists and engineers, although they
have fewer than they need and al
though those they have got lack the
laboratory and factory facilities of
Europe and America.

SECOND FALSE ASSUMPTION

Our second false assumption is
that American money and American
'-know-how" can do the job, any
how enough. of it to stop Russia.
First, let's rule out this anyhow"
kind of thinking. What we want is
= peaceful world, not just world
barely peaceful enough to stop Rus
STA. Communism is indeed a very
great evil; surely, we have not be-
come so Saddled as to believe it is
the only evil in the world. If we have,
we shall fight it alone, because other
peoples can name lots of evil things
besides communism-thin like hum
ger and disease, for example. The
question is not whether American
money and American know-how can
do the job enough to stop Russia,
hut simply whether they can do the
job.
] suggest that they cannot.
If you can imagine the American
Government abolishing its army, its
navy. its air force, and cancelling all
IFS war contracts. then the billions of
dollars it would save might go
lcng way toward putting the produc-
i've powers of the rest of the world
into action. Unfortunately, such dras-
tic disarmament would throw this
country into an economic depression
and cause widespread unemployment
with serious, consequences for the
world economy! But there is moth
ing to worry about, because clearly
our government is going to do no
such thing.
If, on the other hand we are go
ing to add Point Four" program
for world economic development to
our vast military program, then we
will probably add what we have been
adding So, in either case,
we just haven't got the money the
job will take.
~ AS to our famous know-how, |
think that word (Which is pompous
gobbledegook for "skill') has already
done our thinking enough harm. 1t
always implies that scientific know
ledge and Industrial technique can be
found only in America. And this is
simply not the case. In the field of
science and technique American in
dustry has always leaned heavily on
The people's voice. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1939-1969, 1951-01-05
THE UN-ONLY PRESENT HOPE

The people of the world are alone
able to take on what is the main
economic problem of every single ma
t1onal group; the problem of rebuild
ing their common world economy
They can hope to do it only bv the
massive use of public funds. Ameri-
ca cannot do it for them. 1t could
# course, be done under Communist
leadership, but that could come only
through Communist revolution. And
y would he twisted to meet Russian
needs in Russia's power struggle with
America. The nearest thing to suit
able agency that already exists is the
United Nations. And the United Ma
lions is the nearest thing that exists
only because the people of the world
lack common government
A common government would be
The proper agency, just as the COM
mon government of the 48 American
states is the proper agency for the
American people when they have to
construct irrigation systems or take
flood control measures that cross
state boundaries or cost too much for
single states to tackle. There are
Americans who pet angry whenever
eovernm emit is used that way, but most

THIRD FALSE ASSUMPTION

That free enterprise" can do the
job better than government. The as.
sumption that private capital can dc
the job runs head-on against a hard
TACT; there is not enough private
capital available. Private capital has
other jobs to do. If we could solve
the problem by leaving it to "busi-
ness leadership" that would be fine.
But we cannot. Private capital goes
only where those who manage if
