German Orphan, 7,
lis New D. T.. Resident

A chubby 2-year-old boy, four
days away from an orphanage
near Berlin, Germany. is a new
resident of Southeast Washington.
He is blond Thomas Eric Beck
ner, formerly Heinz Eric Make
prange. His new parents are Air
Force Capt. Robert L. Beckner.
2240 Nicholson street Sc, and
Mrs. Beckner.
| With seven other German
orphans, the little boy came to
New York on a Belgian airliner.
Capt. and Mrs. Beckner were there
to meet him. His little box con-
tanned only two undershirts and
some hard candy.
Now he has an impressive ward
robe and toy collection, and has
made a start on his English vo-
cabulary. So far the latter IS
limited to "Coke."
The Beckners had been waiting
for him since May, 1851. Living
at that time in Oxnard, Calf.
they filed their application with
the Displaced Persons -Commis-
sion. Capt. Beckner later was
assigned to Boiling Air Force Base
here.
After an investigation by Family
and Child Services here in De-
cember, the Beckners were notified
on June q to obtain the boys visa.

world Of democracy and faith.
We have faith in the future of
the world. We have faith in the
future Of this great country of
ours. We believe in an expand
ing America. We believe that
democracy is but another name
for growth. We believe in a
nation and a world in which
every living person and every
child to be born may have an
opportunity to grow in all ways,
to grow in mind, in heart and
in body: to grow in the things
of the spirit. to enjoy health
and opportunity and happiness
and an increasing share of
worldly goods and above all else,
to grow in freedom.
We believe. in an unlimited
America. Unlike our Republican
opponents, we would not limit
our goals to the mere compass
of our fears. Instead. we will
extend our goals to match our
hopes.
The essence Of American be-
lief in the future is faith. We
will overcome adversely and tri-
umph again and again over foes
and fears because we are a
confident and optimistic people.
Our faith will sustain us in the
future as it has in the past, if
we remember to act upon it.
The way to live up to our faith
is by working and voting for a
better and a brighter future.
The touchstone of our hopes
is the ballot box. It is there
we affirm our belief that things
can and will be better for us all.
Throughout the past 20 years,
in five presidential elections,
millions of confident Americans
have gone to their polling places
and there pledged their faith in
America. unlimited, and in a
world unrestrained by fear and
force. They did that by voting
the Democratic ticket, and that
is exactly what they are going
to do in November.

does not get you anywhere and
it has not got anywhere.
We will carry on the fight for
strong wage and price controls
to protect the buying power of
the white-collar workers and
the people of fixed income. We
will carry on the fight for real
competitive enterprise against
monopoly. We will carry on the
fight for increased benefits and
greater coverage under the So
cial security laws. We will
carry on the fight for Federal
aid to education, to help the
United. States meet the crisis
confronting our schools. We
will carry on the fight to build
up our natural resources for the
benefit of all the people and not
for private monopoly.
We will carry on the fight to
bring decent housing within the
reach of all of our people at
prices they can afford to pay.
We will carry on the fight to
bring better health to all our
people.
We will carry on the fight for
the full protection Of civil rights
for all of our citizens in all parts
of the country. without regard
to race, religion or national
origin.
Now, these elements of the
Democratic program are not
false. They are plans for action.
I was elected in 1948 because
the people wanted these things
done and they believed that the
Democratic Party and the DEM
ocratic administration would
work for human progress. and
that is exactly what we have
been doing.
We have worked and fought
to translate the hopes and
dreams of the American people
into reality.
We have gone ahead to ex-
pand opportunities for young
people, to help the aged and
afflicted, to make American
homes more secure against sick
ness and disaster. We have
opened the way to good incomes
and greater freedoms for all.
And now, now in this year Of
1852, the world is moving into
the atomic age. The American
people look to a way to fulfill

6. O. p. Leaders Described
As Men of Little Faith

Now, every four years the Re-
publican leaders, men of little
faith and no vision and they
would not be Republicans If they
weren't that way, they come
forth and try to stop the prog
ress of a mighty people. Well,
they are at it again this year.
They are powerful and they
are going to throw millions of
dollars into their attempt to de-
ceive and confuse the American
people and stop this onward
march.
Now. in 1948, we didn't have
any money. There were times
when I could not get a train out
of station when went out on
that whistle stop tour and you
know what happened, don't you?
We made them like it and then
there were a lot of people who
thought the Democratic Party
was a great party and we man
aged to pay our bills. But it all
happened afterwards.
I don't think, and it has been
my experience ever since have
been in politics, that when you
want to win an election you go
out and win it on the merits
and convince the people Of what
you have for them and what the
other fellow is trying to give
them. That is exactly my policy
and that is what is going to
happen this time.
Now, these Republicans, very
nearly all Of the newspapers
and magazines are on their side.
They may have and probably
will have public opinion polls in
1948. Well, the posters and the
press in 1948 acted like Kipling's
monkey convention in his IA
nous Jungle Book" You know.
the monkeys had a convention.
and the head old simian made a
statement and statement and
statement, and he kept on max
ing that statement. and finally
the concourse said, 'It must be
so, we all say so. It must be so,
we all say So" It turned out a
little differently in 1948. You
know. those posters and press
men should have conferred with
4 tho people instead Of voting

Choice Is One That All
Can Get Behind

It was hard to make a choice
among these great leaders, but
the choice that we have made
is one that we can all get be-
hind. We are going out of here
an inspired and fighting party.
dedicated to the welfare of the
people. We are bound to win
this election.
Now, four years ago I told
the Democratic convention in
Philadelphia that Senator Bark
ley and I were going out and win
in 1913, and that is just what
we did.
There were a lot of people
who didn't believe me. They
turned out to be wrong. am
telling you now that Adlai Ste
venson is going to win in 1852.
We are going to win in 1852
the same way we won in 1948,
and I pledge you now that I am
going to take my coat off and
do everything ] can to help him
win.
Now, the Republicans can't
understand why it is that the
Democrats keep winning elec-
tions. They think there is some
kind of trick in it, and they
have just about gone crazy
trying to find out what that
trick is.
You know, the real reason the
Democrats win elections is a
perfectly simple reason. It is
because the Democratic Party
gives the American people the
kind Of government they want.
Under our leadership, the peo-
pie Of America march forward.
It isn't what our Nation has
done in 20 years. the Democra-
tic leadership. Think of it. The
country rescued from disaster
and made the greatest and
strongest Nation in the history
Of the world. They have 81
million jobs. 81 million people
at work: the highest living
standards in our history. the
best distribution of income man
kind ever saw. More leisure.
greater freedom and better
health, and more security for
the average man than any peo-
pie ever before in the history Of
the world.
Evening star., 1952-07-26

the promise of the future so to
tick with the progressive policies
that have been pioneered by the
Democratic Party, for the peo-
pie know that we are interested
not only in the next election
We are interested in the next
generation.
We are standing at the
threshold of a new day in hu-
man history. a day when mems
lives will be changed beyond
anything we can imagine. BY
the giant strides of science, by
the developments like elec-
tronics. supersonic speeds, and
atomic energy, we are at the
end of an era and at the be-
ginning of another. We face
the greatest age in the history
Of the world. / wish I was
18 instead of 6S so I could see
the development to it's con
clusion.

Efforts Directed Toward
Preserving World Peace

Everything I have done since
I took Office has been directed
toward this single goal-pre-
serving the peace Of the world.
The foundation of our program
for peace is the United Nations.
I am fully convinced that If we
keep working at it, the United
Nations will become what it was
intended to be, the foundation
of man in the federation of the
world.
In the United Nations we
have pledged our honor. We
have backed up our pledge with
our resources and our armed
might. We have created the
Marshall Plan, the Mutual
Security program. We created
the North Atlantic Treaty, and
joined it. We have entered into
security in the Pacific. We
have met aggression in Korea,
and we have stopped it there.
BY these acts we have given
hope and safety to those who
live in the shadow of conquest,
and those in the slave world of
communism. BY these acts we
have created company of allies
and a chain of defense to pro-
tect this beloved country of ours.
But we know that a lasting
peace cannot be won by force
alone. We know that peace must
mean bread and justice and op-
portunity and freedom for all
the people in the world. That
is why we have pledged our aid
to other nations to help them to
go forward. That is why we
have launched the Point Four
program.
Point Four is good business for
us and for our friends. In the
underdeveloped countries of the
world, for them and for us, it
means more trade. more pros
perity, and q better supply Of
raw materials. But Point Four
is much more than that. Point
Four is the helping hand we ex-
tend to the farmer, to the un-
6ernouriShed child in India, to
the impoverished laborer in
Iran, Iraq and Syria.
I want to remind you Of
something. This country. in its
developing stage. had invest
ments free from Germany and
France and Holland and Great
Britain which helped us develop
railroads and mines and cattle
ranches. and that is one Of the
things that has made this coun-
try great. Now. when those
countries become involved in
two world wars within a gen.
Grafton, they have to withdraw
those funds and use them for
their protection.
We are in the position now
of making the world entirely
safe for democracy if we don't
crawl in the shell and act selfish
and foolish.

President Predicts
Victory for Party
Again in November
Rx the Associated Pres.

CHICAGO, July 26.-The tert
OF President Trumdn'S address
to the Democratic National
Convention, as transcribed by
the official reporters of the con-
Dention:
You have demonstrated here
for all the world to see, that the
Democratic Party is the party
of the people. You have had a
tremendous convention. You
I've made your, rules and you
have adopted your platform.
YOU have met the issues head
on, the only way to meet them.
You have stood by the prin-
cipleS that made the Democratic
Party great. You have adopted
a platform that says what it
means and means what it says.
You have laid down a winning
program, and you have nomi-
mated a winner for the next
President of the United States.
You are going out of this con-
vention much stronger than
when you came in. One of the
things, that impressed me as I
watched this convention on
television, and / missed very
little of it, is the wealth of good
men of great ability that we
have in the Democratic Party.
I have never worried about
the outcome of this convention.
because all those placed in
nomination have been unusually
fine men and able leaders. I
don't know of any time that our
party has had better men to
choose from, and we have had a
lot of good men in the Demo-
cratic Party. The only trouble
was, we had to pick one and
leave the others out.

all over the rest of the world
as much as 2 per cent.
We must keep this lamp
alight and shining because it is
a symbol of the world for our
humane Americanism, for our
friendship for all people Of all
races and of all creeds who want
to lift themselves up and
build a better life for them
selves and their children.
Point Four is the way to make
freedom work for millions and
millions of people.
That is why it is one Of our
strongest weapons against the
spread of communism.
Imust say to you. my friends.
that when I speak Of our for
eign policy, I speak with great
pride, for our foreign policy is
one of the greatest achieve
ments of this country or any
other country in all the history
of the world.
My good friends, we have
finally stepped into the leader
ship which Almighty God in
tended us to assume a genera
ton ago. But, the Democratic
Party has a forward-looking
domestic program to match this
forward looking foreign policy.
We know that one will not work
without the other.
To meet our responsibilities
to the world, we must have
strong and prosperous United
States of America. The Demo-
cratic Party has a program for
strengthening our country and
improving the life of every per-
son in it. We will carry on the
fight for the progress of the
American farmer. including
strong price supports for farm
products and a soil conServa-
ton program that really works.
Will Fight to Repeal
Toft-HortIey Act
We will carry on the fight for
fair wages and good working
conditions for American labor.
and we will fight for the repeal
of that good-for-nothing Taft
Hartley Act.

1t is a program of concrete.
practical measures written down
in black and white in the plat
form in words that are as plain
and easy to understand as is
possible.
Now. our greatest program is
for world peace. First of all,
ours is a program for peace in
the world. This is a program
to which we have dedicated our
selves with all our hearts. We
are determined to avoid World
War III.
