America Must Inspire
World, Acheson Says

The United States has a great
responsibility to act in a way
worthy of the confidence and
friendship of free peoples In ether
parts of the world, Secretary Of
State Acheson said today.
At his first news conference
since a 16-day flying trip to Eng
land, Berlin, Vienna and Brazil,
Mr.. AcheSon said he was i'm
pressed most by the friendly con-
fidence in the United States he
found wherever he went.
He said he found recognition Of
American power coupled with an
understanding that this country
desires to be helpful. but not to
dominate other peoples.
He explained that his visits
to Berlin, Vienna and Brazil were
not to conduct any business, but
to demonstrate by his presence
the great interest of the United
States in the peoples of those
places,
Mr.. Acheson returned to Wash

Must Build Integroted
World Policy

In. the field of foreign affairs,
there is something vital we will
,reaffirm and keep. That is faith
in the American peoples mission
in the world. We must build an
integrated world policy. Our
leadership is now crippled by
piece-meal programs. limited to
certain areas while whole conti-
nents are largely ignored. Our
security can be jeopardized at
many points. Our task is to de-
termine the basic factors in the
problem; the scope and intensity
of our own national interests in
every significant sector Of the
world must be our guide. The
facts must be given to the Amer
ican people; they must know our
aims, the reasons for them and
the cost of attaining them.
Communism cannot be thwarted
by a hastily built wall here or
: an emergency dixie there any
more than the Wabash can be
checked with a half dozen bath
tub plugs. We almost invite
: subversion, infiltration and ag-
greSsion by the Communists
when we ignorantly neglect any
area vital to our welfare.
In the words of our text,
"there is a time to keep and a
time to cast away"
Now is the time for both.
The American people will cast

is the theme song Of the WASH
ington press agents. But before
November 4 rolls around, they
will be stuck with it. Too much
has already been taken away
from the American people by
the bungling and the corruption
of the last seven years for such
a song to sound very sweet in
our ears.
Don't let them take it away"
they sing.
Take away what, I ask youl
An administration that fun
bles and stumbles and falls fiat
every couple of weeks? Why,
my distinguished opponent is
using every trick in the book to
get himself off the hook of the
present administrations record.
When the hand-picked heir
wants no part of the neirlooms.
why should we?
Don't let them take it away"
they cry.
Do they mean the 5 per cent
fees for their court favorites?
That's what they get. The
American people get a 10 per
cent tax on this, a 20 per cent
tax on that, a. whole invisible
blanket of taxes wrapped around
every article they buy.
Don't let them take it away"
they moan.
Do they mean the campaign

sure: A real change in Washing
ton.
Now I ask you: Isn't that
what you want?
I will keep at my task right
down to the wire.
Together, we can achieve VIC
tory. Let every one Of us, from
now to November 4, work on our
friends and neighbors to make
sure that they are registered.
If we do that, the turnout on
election day will dwarf every
statistic-except the Democrat
national debt.
May I here venture to suggest
to the husbands and fathers of
America that baby-sitting and
washing the breakfast dishes on
election day will be an act of
patriotism, if in that way a wife
is enabled to cast her vote. And
point out to the wives of Amer
lea that postponing a shopping
trip or keeping the supper warm
an extra hour on that day will
be equally an act of patriotism,
should thereby a husband be en-
abled to vote.
It will be a long time before
we get another chance.
Almost anything can happen
in four years. But one thing
won't happen. There won't be a
clean-out in Washington-un-
less you take care of it this
November.
The hordes of Washington
press agents, however. believe
they can fool most of the people
again this election. For our un-
doing and their own profit, they
have fooled up the song and
slogan factories.
Don't let them take it away"
is their prize piece of musical
politics to date. A cracked
phonograph record, endlessly
plays the same tune: that the
Republican Party and. its cam
didates are going to take some
thing away from the American
people. That forlorn tune Is
symbolic of the frayed hopes OF
the administration this year.

out the stupid and wrong things
that stand in their way. They
will keep those trusted, dynamic
things that have made Ameri-
cans people Of accomplishment
in every generation.
Great goals lie ahead for the
winning peace with honor,
prosperity without war. and a
society fair and humane to all
It's citizens.
These goals we can win. These
goals our people are determined
to win.
But, to win them them we must
do better-a lot better. And
Americans are determined to do
better. They are determined to
start by setting their house in
order November 4.
That's our job. Let's get
started on it right now.

vestigation and a lot of tax
money to clean out the mess.
Next. we shall cast away the
alien philosophy that our ma
tional destiny lies in the SUI
premacy Of government over
all. That philosophy sometimes
calls itself by the fine old name
of liberal. But it has nothing to
do with liberty. Sometimes it
calls itself progressive. But its
progress Is backwards to the
day when the king was the gov
ernment and the government
was the master. That philos-
ophy we intend to cast away
and with it all the conomic and
professional wizards who teach
it.
We shall cast away the agents
of Capitalization who would de-
stroy the vitality of State and
local government by assigning
all powers to the Federal Gov
ernment. Enormous Federal
taxation is gobbling up sources
of revenue from the States and
local communities. That means
local services are being cut to
the bone Schools are crowded.
Teachers. policemen, flremen
and other local public servants
suffer as a result. Let that trend
to centralized government con-
tinue and in every State you
will have q Federal governor

Monopoly in Politics Leads
To Bureaucratic Rule

When politics becomes the
monopoly of the few and ceases
to be the business of every citi-
zen. the result is government by
bureaucrats, by cronies and by
machines.
That's what we have too much
of today.
A friend has said to me. I'm
Indiana, they take their basket
ball and their politics seriously.
Every Hoosier. from birth, eats.

politics. They are teamwork
conscious in that State"
The sports sections Of the
newspapers every winter tell Of
your basketball prowess. And
the history of the Republican
Party through 96 years records
your devotion to party respon-
sibility.
Victory is the product Of
teamwork, the product of a
united party. Victory comes
from the efforts of many men
and many women. not always
seeing eye to eye on every ques-
ton, but always-in the matter
Of party responsibility-joined
as a team.

Will Cast Away Fear
From National Life

Finally, we will cast away fear
from our national life. This
Nation was not destined to stag
ger from crisis to crisis. In the
tradition in which you and
were raised, we did not recog-
nize as leaders men whose stock
in trade was one fearsome warm
ing after another. We shall
cast away the fearmongers.
What, in the words of our
text. are some Of the things we
will keep?
Above all we will keep faith,
faith with the American people.
We will preserve faith in the
plain provisions of our founding
documents, faith that by their
guidance we can chart Americas
future boldly and safely.
Keeping that faith. we will
restore honor and distinction to
the public service of our coun-
try. We will call to the high
Offices Of government the best
men and women, the ablest and
most reliable in the land. Such
men and women will gladly re-
port for duty in government,
when government itself once
more commands their respect.
The overwhelming majority
of Federal employees are among
our most patriotic and efficient
citizens. I want to make them
proud of the Government they
serve.
In the field OF public policy at
home, we will work to keep Gov
ernment close to the people and
responsive to their will. We
would never vote for regimenta-
ton. We must not permit it to
be fastened on us through our
own indifference and neglect.
You of Indiana have often
asserted your sovereignty and
refused to accept the dictation
Of a Federal bureaucracy.
More power to you!
But you won't have to fight
domineering bureaucrats in the
new administration. We shall
work increasingly for a more

line. We don't have party 10y
atty oaths. We don't have party
purges. Those are administra-
tion machine devices that we
do not need and do not want.
We want independent minds
and men who speak their minds.
In this campaign, I am re-
questing voters to support the
entire Republican ticket from
top to bottom at every stop in
every State I visit. The people
of each State are the best
judges Of the individuals they
want to represent their party.
That is fundamental principle
in the American system. And
we are not going to wash that
principle down the drain.
You Republicans here in Indi-
ana have selected your candi-
dates for United States Senator
and Representatives in Congress
in your II districts.
I believe that every one of
them will support the program
which I shall present to the
Congress if I am elected Presi-
dent. I. therefore, urge their
election and ask you to spare no
effort to see that they are sent
to WASHINGTON.

Goal Is to Get Every Voter
To Polls on Election Day

Here in Indiana, you have a
Democrat State administration.
1t is equally important that your
candidate for Governor and the
Republican slate of candidates
from top to bottom all be elect
ed. They are part of our team
and we'll never get anywhere
except as a team.
In this campaign, I have
undertaken the job Of helping to
arouse the men and women of
America to a realization that
they must get rid of the mess in
Washington. The goal is to get
every American, eligible to vote
and physically able to vote, to
the polls on election day. A big
vote will mean one thing for

contributions extracted from
Federal employees so that the
bosses can stay in power at no
cost to themselves? Let me ask
these political bosses: Can you
show me the Kansas mailman
who doesn't earn every dime he
is paid and who doesn't need
every dime he gets? Yet. as I
learned to my astonishment the
other day, that Kansas mailman
has had to stomach a threaten
ing prediction letter from the
administration overseer in his
State. That letter said falsely,
in effect, that the Republicans,
If elected, would fire him. The
letter went on to suggest that
a 500 campaign contribution
would help save the day-fUr
the mailman and the admins,
tration.
Don't let them take it away"
they implore.
Do they mean the $400 deficit
that the average city family
suffered in 1850? Those are
the figures of the administra-
tons own Department of Labor.
Even the press agents cannot
create an appetite for that sort
of financial diet.
Do they mean the imitation
that has cut savagely into the
value of the endowments Of our
schools, the pension funds Of
our unions. the savings of our
people? The good nickel cigar
of Indiana'S Tom Marshall is
q lost hope in this era of soar
ing prices for things you buy.
81 900 in Savings Becomes
$40 in Spending Power !.
Take the case of the elderly
couple that scrimped and saved
to retire on $100 a month in
1945. when the present mess in
Washington began. Now their
buying power has been cut to
$71 a. month. Or take the
younger married couple that
sacrificed to build up a $1,000
savings account to send a grow
ing youngster to college. Now
they have $710 of the spending
power that was in the bank in
1945.
Don't let them take it away, !"
they chorus
Do they mean the record of
losing our friends in Eastern
Europe, in China? Do they
mean the loss Of TOO million hui
man beings to the Communist
slave world in spite of our
thousands of casualties and
billions of dollars? Do they mean
the bungling that has trapped
us into the Korean War? 1t is
cold comfort to the bereaved,
the lonely and the worried to
learn from the official propa-
ganda that the Korean War is
only a small war.
Don't let them take it away" !"
is a slogan only for the gull
lible. Possibly better advice for
this campaign is found in a line
in the Book of Ecclesiastes that
reads: There is a time
to keep and a time to cast
away" This is a time to cast
away some stupid and wicked
things.
Let me tell you plainly what
I want to cast away. with the
aid Of a Republican Congress
and Republican officials in the
States.
| First, we shall cast away the
i incompetent, the unit, the
cronies and the chiselers. We
shall not tolerate any trace oi
subversion or disloyalty in Gov
ernment office. And 1t won't
l take years of congressional in
