94cc& Corruption

Secrecy in government breeds corruption We don't have
to to foreign governments discover this fact 1t is very
evident particularly national scale and to smaller
degree right down the line to the smallest community
In spite of the scandals that have been brought to light
in the past several months in Washington, very little has
them They have been whewashed by the
national leaders and this past week President Truman
himself announced that he knew nothing of mess in
Washington But the Democratic candidate who is trying
hopelessy break away from the Truman srangehod
already promising in his campaign addresses to cean up
the mess That according Gen. Eisenhower the Repub
candidate makes the situation normal in Washington
everything in confusion
Just this week have further evidence of attempted
secrecy Washington up mfavorabe statements
power The Bureau of Labor statistics released
report stating the average family Outpent its 1850
by $500 This reutes the Democratic
pagners who tell the people you've had it good
Now statisticans other government agencies dis
putting BIS findings and deporng the agency failure
to submit the report them before its issuance This last
the important Big government tries to
throttle the bit of information getting to the public
censored cndied sWeetened and made to suit
Here is where secrecy breeds corruption if they
up what they don't want people to hear about
The tendency true in states which not above
their legislation 1t is true in counties where those
elected official affairs transact business without
keeping official of meetings. 1t is in towns that
try to closed council meetings. 1t is true in lesser Of
appointed to minor position tries to
prevent reporter editor from taking look at the
register and tries to give information only what
suits him. Keeping the welfare rolls in many states
has caused numberess people collect funds unworhiy
why the newspapers of America must
remain insist the right to obtain the facts and
present them the public. Secrecy any form of
men cannot tolerated 1t has been used too long by the
party that has been much too long in power
