Text of Gen. Eisenhowers Speech on Dangers of Initiation

money in existence, more being
made today. than ever before in
our history. But you. know, just
as know, that today's money
simply doesn't go as far as the
money We were paid in five
years ago. Of course. everybody
likes the comforting feeling of
more money in his pocket, be-
cause it should mean that he is
getting ahead. But today we
know that the comforting feel
ing is only an illusion. This
illusion the administration in
Washington has Systematically
nourished and exploited for
political gain for many years.
But they haven't told you all
the truth.
Here are some facts that
should dispel the Illusion:
The average American fam
lily had an income of $500 in
1945. This average income had
come up to $4,000 by 1851. What
did these higher earnings mean
in the typical American home?
Rising prices ate up nine-tenths
of the gain; rising taxes took the
rest and a little more. The re-
suit: The family could actually
buy less with it's 1851 income
than with it's 1945 income. And
they say, "You never had it so
good!"

All Our Problems
Tied to One Another

All our problems today are
tied to one another. and none
can be resolved by itself. With
tens of billions spent on arma-
ments, another six or seven bill
lion on foreign aid, we see
again that the soundnesS of our
economic health depends upon
the Soundness of our foreign
policy. The blunt truth is this:
We cannot, as a free people,
bear this huge burden indef1-
nitely. We cannot-year after
year, decade after decade-both
maintain our standard of liv-
ing, finance huge ornaments,
and help to rebuild economies
Of nations all around the globe.
We cannot. in short, win the
peace with a foreign policy of
drift. makeshirt, and make
believe.
We must honestly face the
fact that such a policy not only
fails to secure the peace-it
also places the hopes of the
free world in jeopardy by the
strain it puts upon our econ
omy, and by the confusion it
creates in other lands. We can
lead best by example.
We cannot act as freedoms
leader by wearing the shoddy
clothing of national scandal.
We cannot have the strength
Of leadership if we must depend
for our prosperity upon war or
preparations for war.
I despise war. have seen
too much of it. So has every
man who has worn his country's
uniform. Our foreign policy is
a failure if it cannot obtain
and secure peace. War comes
from the failure of diplomacy.
But just as our foreign policy
fails when it leads us into war,
so our policies at home make
for false prosperity when they
are predicated upon arms pro-
duction-with no end in sight.
We can have stable world con-
ditions and prosperity, too.
To rally from among our
people the leadership which
can achieve these goals is the
purpose of our crusade.
I am not politician. I have
never been one and I am not one
now.
But have spent my life in
war and peace in the service
Of this beloved country of ours.
I love this land. AS I look into
the future I can see what the
dedicated leadership of Ameri-
cas- ableSt citizens can accom-.
plish to bring peace and pros
perity to ourselves and the free
world.
If you share that vision. you
can be one of the molders of
Americas greater destiny.
You belong in our crusade.

People Are Cheated
By Cheupened Money

What they have done is to
cheaper our money, and history
shows that this is always dore
by administrations that care
more for the next election than
for the next generation.
Back through the centuries to
the days of the Romans and be-
yond, governments have cheated
their people by this simple proc
ess. 1t used to be called "coin
clipping" When feudal lords
and local officials in the Middle
Ages tried to make fortunes at
clipping coins, they often ended
by getting the severest punish
ment an outraged people could
give-cutting off their hands.
We have a more humane and
more effective remedy for to-
days coin clippers - cutting
them off from public Office.
That you can do by your
votes on November 4.
The way this cheap-money
policy has worked out is easy
to describe. With one hand the
administration has been turn
ing up the pressure at the
money hydrant. while with the
other hand it has been trying
to check its flow. The admin
istration's controls over prices
are nothing but weak stopgaps.
The really effective controls
those over money and credit
were ignored by the admins
tration. A resort to those con-
trolls would have paralyzed their
scheme to use cheap money for
their own ends.
Now. the administrations

mists. A number of these men.

Eccles-resigned. Another re-

the struggle between the Fed
eral Reserve Board and the
Treasury Department over our
country's credit and money
policies.
Evening star., 1952-10-23

what you take home - that's
imitation.
The first fact about initiation
is that it pervades every single
aspect of. our individual and
national life. It aggravateS the
ceaseless struggle of the indi-
vidual worker to feed and
clothe his family. no less than
the global struggle to hold back
the pressure of Communism and
the danger of war.
I want to talk about how the
present administration has let
this peril constantly grow.
Then I want to say something
about how our new administra-
ton will deal with the forces
that are destroying the value of
your dollar.
To begin with. it is not easy
for any one Of us to realize how
close to him this peril is. To
the casual eye. our economy
looks as healthy and serene
and rewarding-as a stretch of
rich Hudson River Valley farm
land. But the eye that looks
sharp and deep will find in this
agreeable prospect a concealed
minef1eld.
It is true that there is more

Not Too Late to Return
To Policy of Honesty

First of all: We must discard
the dangerous administration
maxim that says, Imitation is
the best policy" Here-as in
every field of our Government
1t is not too late to go back to
the simple truth that honesty is
the best policy.
The next step-after we have
a sane and honest economic pro-
gram again-will be to carry it
out efficiently. We shall not al
low our Government agencies to
fight at the expense of the
American people. We shall create
an atmosphere in which the
Federal Reserve Board and the
Treasury Department can act
not as political enemies, but as
economic allies in the war
against imitation.
After that: The effective be-
ginning of this war on imitation
must be an intelligent, planned
attack on the spending program
of our Federal Government.
Let us stop for a moment and
see just what this means.
It means at the outset that
businesslike methods must be
applied to every program Of the
Federal Government to bring
about efficiency and real savings
the kind you have had here in
New York under Tom Dewey.
The biggest business in the
world should be administered as
something more than q political
grab bag.
Today most of our dollars
two out Of every. three-are
spent on defense. Herein the
area Of greatest cost to the
American taxpayer Il know
that savings can be made. This
does not mean slowing the
speed or cutting the size of the
rearmament program we need.
No responsible citizens could
foster such folly in today's
world. It means bringing to the
Pentagon's costly operations the
help of business and professional
examiners who can speak for
the Chief Executive with expert
knowledge.
I tell you this from my own
experience: Scrutiny of military
spending can effect substantial
savings in our huge defense pro-
gram.
