resented at the meeting.
The reason given for the Swe-
dish Clubs refusal to support the
joint community building project
as originally planned is that 9TH
er organizations did not pledge as
much money as expected.
Swedish Club Assets
The Swedish Club is the larg-
est single Swedish organization in
Seattle. According to the club
president, Roy Lundberg, the
clubs assets total about $4,000.
The Club pledged $4,000 to the
joint community project. 1t pur-
chased a lot at End Ave. and
Broad ST.. worth an estimated
$4,000 AS proposed. the COM
munity building would DE erect
ed at that location.
The Sweden House Booster Club
has been spearheaded by Gus
Backman, long active in promot-
ing various activities in the Swe-
dish community of Seattle, and
John Nordeen, also we'll known in
a similar capacity, and as man.
ager of the Swedish Club,
Their personal efforts for the
Joint project and the activities of
the Sweden House Booster Club
including the Lucia Festival last
DECEMBER. were commended by
the Swedish Club. In so far as
the financial results of those eff
forts and activities are concerned.
the Swedish Club placed the blame
on those Swedish organizations
that did not pledge enough mon-
ey to make the joint project
worthwhile, in the opinion of the
Swedish Club.
The present officers of the
Sweden House Booster Club are

Economics Don't Rule Russia

Political Considerations Always Come First

standards to which people
are accustomed. In America,

and fat foods a day, indoor
plumbing. mechanical refrig-
Grafton, private radios and

not considered luxuries. The

In the Soviet Union, for
most Of the people. even bed
steads and mattresses. bed
linen and night clothes, knives
and forks. dishes, soap, and

munist regime could supply
the masses only with these. it
could correctly claim a sub
stantial rise of living stand

of a grateful people. But none
of these is essential to waging
war.
The internal consideration
that moves a totalitarian re-
gime is primarily the reten-
tion of its own power. The
rivalries that exist are not be-
tween the government and the
people, but within the eche-
Ions where power resides. If
Mr.. Malenkov and his aSsoci-

Danger in Troop Withdrawals
Pulling Two American Divisions Out Of Koreo
Held Possible Invitation to World War III

Korean people, the move will
be regarded with enthusiasm
there. Something has to be
done to keep up the Korean
morale. especially since it is
now conceded by the American
envoy, Arthur Dean, that the
Chinese Communist govern
ment is integrating North
Korea into the Manchurian
economy. It is believed. more
over. that the Chinese Com
munist government Is planning
to make North Korea a part
Of Red China. This form Of
annexation could happen If a
peace treaty to unity Korea is
never signed.
Possibly Gen. Eisenhower
didn't know of the Communist
intentions for a Christmas Day
drive across Indo-C China when
he arranged for the withdrawal
of the two American divisions
from Korea, and sent Admiral
Arthur w. Radford and Assist
ant Secretary of State Walter
Robertson to Seoul to explain
the move to President Rhee.
But now that the Communists
have completely disregarded
the warning issued by Secre-
tary Dulles last sum m er
against further aggression in
Indo- China, it does look as if
the Communists aren't taking
any statements by the Amer
lean Government very seri-
ously. This is the road to
further aggression.
To cut Indo-C China in half
at the 18th parallel in the
face of all the strong words
issued by the American Gov
ernment and in the light Of
the United Nations resolutions
against aggression does make
it appear as If Moscow and
Peiping think the Americans
and their allies are committed
to further appeasement.
The appeaSement of 1888
brought on World War II. The
appeasement of 1858 in the
Far East may be misconstrued
by the Communists as weak
ness and could lead to a
greater challenge which would
make World War III inevita
BILE. Appeasement never pays.
It's always more costly in the
long run than firmness at the
decisive moments Of history.

In the Soviet Union economic
considerations have always
been secondary to political.
Granted that the Soviets
need to trade with the West If
they are to fulfill the expecta-
tions of more consumers
goods, which the. Malenkov
government has awakened
among the Russian people. the
seriousness of the Soviets'
economic dilemma can be
gauged only by the political
concessions they are willing to
make.
It is q great mistake to judge
Russia by any Western stand
ards or indulge the hope that
economic distress will bring
down the Communist regime.
It has survived far worse
periods than the present one.
Should such a supply situa-
ton as presently exists in
greater Russia prevail in any
Western country, the survival
of its governments policies
would be impossible. But moth
ing is impossible" to a govern
ment totally powerful, whose
economic difficulties can be
solved by purging leaders
guilty of erroneous policies"
after which the identical
policies may be pursued by
others.
Widespread discomfort is
h handled by a propaganda
monopoly. attributing all woes
to foreign Vaccinations and
by the fact that people would
rather live in misery thans die
in prison camps.
Furthermore. it is easier to

poverty economy going than
one whose problem is surplus

Announcement Of the pro-
posed withdrawal of two di-
visions of American troops
about IS. 900 men-from Ko-
rea is a step fraught with
possible consequences Of the
graveSt character. 1t could
conceivably be the genesis of
World War III some day. If
Soviet Russia makes a mis-
calculation based on this de-
cision by America.
For it is unprecedented in
military history to find any
nation which has been fight
ing a war and has agreed to an
armistice suddenly announce
ing that it will withdraw a
substantial number Of its
troops from the fighting zone.
If there had been a peace
treaty signed or some pledge
given against new aggression
by the enemy, the withdrawal
might be rationalized as hav-
ing been required by a peace
agreement in return for con-
cessions Of some kind.
But not only has there been
no agreement on a time or
place for a peace conference
on the Korean question, but
the very membership Of the
conference hasn't been de-
cided upon. The two sides
which fought the war are not
even negotiating at the mo-
ment on any of these three
points.
Just as Secretary Acheson
in January 1850 by his speech
which eliminated Korea from
Americas defense perimeter
may have unwittingly encour-
aged the Communists to COM
NIT their aggression across the
38th parallel a few months
later, so the withdrawal of the
American divisions today may
be miSinterpreted and new ag-
greSsion begun in a few
months.
Certainly the impact of the
American decision on the
morale Of the Korean people
and their army will be dis
turbing. For America to start
reducing her armed forces
even before a peace conference
begins is bound to be discon-
certing to the South Korean
populace which will be appre-
hensive about another attack
