NEW ERA

In his final message to Congress on the state
Of the nation, President Truman placed his greatest
emphasis on the threat of Communism to world
peace and human freedom, and the present ability
of man. through his atomic developments, to obliter
ate his civilization
And the President addressed himself to Josef
Stain as we'll as to the Congress, warning the Gen
eralssme against his professed belief in Lenin's
prOphesy of "war between your world and ours"
But" wrote Mr.. Truman, "Lenin was a pre-
atomic man. War has changed its shape and it's
dimension. 1t can not now be a stage in the de-
velOpment Of anything ruin for your regime and
your homeland"
Whenever the Communist rulers recognize this,
he said, "they will find US eager to reach under
standings that will protect the world from the
danger it faces today"
The cold war; the President indicated, is likely
to be of long duration since the Communists "seem
to think and plan in terms Of generations He pre-
dicted "a long hard test Of strength and stamina
our sartegy against their strategyour nerve against
their nerve" The ultimate outcome he felt would
be cracking of the Red autOcracy or adjustment of
the Communist world so that it can live with it's
neighbors.
The President concluded his long message with
an appeal for unity, by pledging his support our
new President" and asking the same of his hearers.
It was not the message of Politician Truman, whom
we have known so long. It was perhaps our intro
duction to new national fgUre-Historan Truman.

The sad truth is that the present period of pros

which has been spent on useless War In 1914, when
World War I started, our National Debt was less
than billion dollars Today it is over $50 billion
dollars.
If the Republicans will continue the Truman
finance, they probably keep the balloon inflated
a few years more. If however they start to operate
in an honest way-as did President Hoover apa
Andrew Mellon-by reducing the debt, dscharging
government employees and urging economy, stocks
will surely have bad fall.

LOOSE TALK9

In a secret briefng Of the House armed services
committee, Defense Secretary Robert A. Lovett de-
scribed the world situation as "tense," questioned
the effectiveness of a-out force in Korea, discussed
the possibility Of greater economic pressure on the
Chinese Reds and the danger Of antagonizing our
allies.
Representative Dewey Short (Rep) of Missouri,
chairman of the committee who reported the clos
ed meeting, also quoted Mr.. Lovett as saying that
large defense expenditures would have to be con-
tinued for the foreseeabe future, that to cut such
spending below 35 billions in year would be grave
risk"
AS he appeared before the committee the Secre-
tary made public a letter written to the President
November 18th in which he recommended a general
overhauling of the Defense Department and urged
prompt attention to the security problem. Under
listing laws, he said, it is impossible to protect the
nations secrets against traitors, spies and babber
mouths"
All-in-al Mr. LOvetts remarks seem curiously at
variance with President Trumans press conference
statement of the previous week that prospects Of
world peace were improved over year ago =. and
Secretary Of State Achesons testimony before the
Chelf subcommittee that faithless Americans in the
U. NJ were peril to our security The Defense Sec
retary, however, did not name any "babber-mOuths'

WlgT STOCKS HAVE GONE UP
The appointment Of so many successful busi-

friends very bullish. These friends have passed
along the word to other friends, who have bought
stocks at unprecedented rate. Naturally, stock
prices have been going up and will continue climb
as long as this buying exists
Have these Republicans bought for investment
or to sell again soon at proftR Frankly do not
know but my guess is the latter, If So when these
friends of the big shots begin to SELL who will be the

Stocks rallied again during the first part Of

UP TO "THE PEOPLE BACK HOME
Economy in Washington is possible only
If the people back home genuinely want it,
and work for it. There are two ways in
which the people in the cities and states of
the nation can work for economy:
First, they can see that no pressures are
put on the government for more spending.
Almost everybody wants economy, but al
most everybody also has some pet projects
on which he thinks federal money ought to
be spent. An S80,000,000,O00 budget is made
up in large part Of these pet projects mill
lion here and million there. By refraining
from such pressures, and by urging others
to do the same, the people back home can
ease the burden on the taxpayer
Second, they can urge action for economy
on the government, both in the executive
branch and in Congress. In democracy, it
is the right and duty of the citizen not only
to vote, but to take an active and continuous
interest in his government Federal spend
lng-and taxes-are certainly among the
foremost concerns of every citizen.
In the long run, the people get the kind
of government they want and deserve-whe-
ther it be economical, efficient government,
or Wasteful, corrupt government. One of the
most indefensible practices of the last 20
years has been the way all kinds of local
groups, including most chambers of COM
nerce, have demanded government economy
and then demanded right along with it ap-
preparations that would put tax money in
their pockets. If we are to have economy,
there can be no exceptions.
