of Peace, or a Vulture?

Most of the women voters are not
wage earners. They are house wives,
credulous ro-worshippers, of tender
hearts. Millions of these were fooled
by Gen. Eisenhower's prediction
promises to personally visit the Front
in Korea and the implied boast that
he could achieve peace in the Orient.
1t is possible that he is in Korea
now. Can old football player and fan,
he was not reported present at the
Navy-Army game.) The obstacles are
potent. The great military man may
not realize what they are. They are
internal; they are international
The American pressure groups to
thwart his sincere hopes are persona
fled by John Foster Dulles, former
corporation or cartel lawyer. Mr.. Dull
les was in Korea speaking for Mr.. Tru-
man week before we began that
war. He was doubtless promising Sing
man Rhee, : American aid. Lately a
South Korean speaker told the United
Nations that South Korea would have
attacked, if the North Koreans had
not done so. Dulles is to be Secretary
of State.i
Truman knew and Dulles knows
that without vast internal improve
ments such as Valley authorities, hos
pitfalls socialized medicine, to absorb
surplus labor, the only method of
keeping our artificial economy going
is to overtaX the people to pay for mu-
nitions, and actually draft the sur
plus labor into unproductive military
action and preparation. To reconcile
us to this plan, war scares were
started. To activate war scares, witch
hunting was encouraged. Riding the
tide of these dirty waters McCarthys,
Nixons, Parnell Thomases, as Repub-
l1cans, McCarrans Martin Dieses, as
Democrats gain place. The Democrats
500 Cd l. I
cleverly turned the "whirlwind" to
their advantage.
Now the Republicans have a deadly
fear that if the economy breaks down,
a slump comes, the apples of their
recent clever victory will turn to
ashes in their mouths. To keep the
old fashioned wagon going by pure
and simple waste of men and wealth
in war and making munitions is one
method Bringing the young men home,
putting them to work on valley au-
thorities, Nicaragua Canal, st. Law
renee Waterway, hospitals, schools,
highways, is another way to keep
wages up and men employed. That
was Roosevelt's way The Republican
advisers of Eisenhower will not per-
nit him to take that road to welfare
While EXPIRES. Hoover broadcast IS
months ago that 1--WE have lost the war
n Korea, we should get out of Ko-
rea, out of Japan, out of Asia, most
Americans think we are still a First
Rate Power; the Republicans dare not
offend our national pride by a retreat
and Acknowledgement of total defeat
by g nation which we think inferior
The General has the Bear by the
tail. 1t is dangerous to let go. We
started the cold war. Wheeler when
Senator forthwith after Berlin fell,
addressed our troops in Europe, THAT
we would fight the Russians next"
The Soviets took the warning of such
shallow minds in power in Washing
ton. They knew after the Historic
Tragedy, the death of Mr.. Roosevelt,
that the others like Wheeler would
fan the flame.
