The Removal of Controls

President Eisenhower made clear in his
State-of- Union message on February that
he felt domestic economic controls "have proved
largely unsatisfactory or unavoidable" Ac-
cordingly, he proposed that wage and price
controls expire as scheduled on April 80 and
that material and product controls lapse on
June 30-except for standby authority which
might be needed to assure defense priorities.
In the meantime, he said that steps would be
taken to eliminate the controls in an orderly
manner and to terminate the special agencies
which have been administering them.
These steps are well under way today. What
effect the removal Of wage and price controls
will have eventually upon the economy must
await the test Of time. It is obviously to be
expected, as the President said, that there will
be some price changes but the fact that many
goods already were selling under ceiling prices
indicates there Is no extraordinary pressure
beneath them Shortages of consumer items
which resulted in large part from scare-buying
after outbreak of the Korean war have long ago
disappeared. For the most part comparable
situation exists with regard to materials, with
the defense production program stabilized at a
high level and a flow of supplies established.
The strength of the American economy has
been based very largely in it's freedom-its
responsiveness to the law of supply and demand.
. There is good reason to believe return to this
freedom will maintain that economic strength
rather than impair it.

How Low Can They Get?

Friday was the eighth anniversary of the
bombing of Dresden by the air forces of the
United States and Britain. To mark the event
the East German Communists were active in
the city, their objective being to stir up hatred
against our country for the death and destruc-
ton that occurred there during the war; The
sponsor of this was the Kremlin which began
a few years back to make big propaganda
issue of the "crime" committed against the
place by the barbarian" attack of our planes.
Here is another eloquent example of Soviet
hypocrisy carried to the lowest depths of dis
honor in an effort to make the hate-America
campaign bear fruit in Germany. For the
Communist propagandists, as they shed their
crocodile tears and fill the air with their vile
invective, are ever careful to cover up this fact:
That the attack was made at the urgent request
of the Stain government to prevent the Nazis
from rushing reinforcements through Dresden
to smash back Marshal Konev's Red army,
which was then so miles from the city and
which might otherwise have suffered serious
blow.
Is it possible that the men Of the Kremlin
can get any lower in their ceaseless effort to
hoodwink and befuddle the world?

Thunder. with its ominous rumblings

as audible, were as real as thunder
which, with its forks Of fire, lombard
ed the shrinking senses.
In early petitions the prayer was
lisped that angels might guard our
beds. And, at church, with utter as
surance as If their snowy pinions were
lowering near, we sang Of angels Of
light, singing to welcome the pilgrims
of the night" But. alas. as years
lengthen, while thunder crashes still
continue to asSail the ear with their
booming assertions of reality, angel
forms tend to become fainter as child
ish things are put away: angel guard
ianS become as futile and "frail as
frost landscapes on windowpane."
We can understand and explain
thunder Its effects can even be re-
produced in laboratory; but as for
the presence and voices Of angels, all
such conceptions belong to the realm
Of fairies or Of Alice in Wonderland
So materialistic age has been telling
us. We have been living through time
when materialists have gone out on
a veritable crusade to debunk the in
visible. Readily they have agreed to
analyze the phenomenon Of thunder
storm, but. diSdainfully, angels have
been ignored. So engrosSed were they
with scientific progress as to have ac-
tually lost the faculty of seeing or
sensing anything else. These denizens
of the seen hear the whirr of machin-
cry, the deafening roar of human traf-
fic and the thunder of global ,conten-
tons. All that Is obvious and audible
But angels, they belong to hymns and
stained-glasS windows, and not to any
universe an intelligent modern can
know anything about.
But once, when the most spiritually
sensitive person who ever trod this
earth was conscious Of voices from the
the Infinite, some nearby with no re-
ceiving sets heard only ordinary earthly
sounds. The record of that epochal day
is: Some said it Numbered. Others
said. an angel spoke to Him" Some
Others-The "scme," struggling their
shoulders at those who so naively
thought the Teacher of Galilee had
heard spiritual voices and with the Grass
cynicism of typical materialistic out
look, insisted ut is nothing but thunder
simply that, and nothing more?"
There they stand: Some-O Others
So it was. And so it is. Thus, men
and women stood divided about the
Christ 20 centuries ago. as darkened
clouds floated across the bending blue

New YugosIov Loan

Yugosavia has received an important new
loan from the International Bank for Recon-
Struction and Development. Consisting en-
tirely of European currencieS equivalent to $50
million the loan will make possible the early
completion of q projects designed to strengthen
the Yugoslav economy in seven significant
fields-generation and distribution Of electric
power; coal mining; extraction and processing
of non-ferrouS metals; iron and steel produc-
ton; manufacturing industries; transportation,
and forestry.
The money being advanced sets a record
of sorts in two respects: 1t represents the
biggest transaction of its kind yet made by the
World Bank in European currencies, and it
involves a larger number of those currencies
than in any similar single loan in the past
10 all told These include Austrian schillings,
British pounds German marks, Italian lire,
Dutch guilders, Norwegian kroner, Swedish
kronor, and Belgian French and Swiss francs.
AS explained by Eugene r. Black, the banks
