"And these 'giveaways' have oc
CURED without asking any of US
the people-whethe it was all RICH
with us to give our property away
Those decisions were made by tn
few in their own interests and no
in ours.
''The prime example of this ad
ministration practice of deciding whC
gets what, without telling the people
about it, is the Dixon-Yates deal
That deal threatens the destruction
of the most highly priced, publicly
built development of this century
IVA.
'People from every country come
to study IVA to find out how they
in their own countries, can use their
river and land resources in the same
way as TVA-for the benefit of all
the people.
"Yet Dixon-Yates, which can de-
stroy IVA, has been agreed on in
secret. The people are deprived
not only of their right to decide
whether or not they want Dixon
Yates-but even to know the de-
tails of a contract which so en-
dangers their treasured IVA.
"Dixon-Yates is a notable example
Of how the government is taking from
us our right of participation in the
of decisions which affect us.
There is another such example-the
civilian use of atomic energy.
"The atomic energy industry is
truly unique. 1t is the only major
industry since the industrial revolu
ton which has come into being in
secrecy-by agreements entered into
in utmost privacy between the mill
tary generals and the generals of in
dustry.
"The original industrial work on
he atom was done under the aegis
If the Manhattan project, which was
entirely military as well as being as
secret project as was ever under
aiken by any government.
"The military picked the coptrac
ors to carry out the various aspects
# the project.
with the help of the military,
General Electric, Westing house and
others tiptoed into the atomic pic
ture carrying contracts for hum
dreds of millions of dollars.
Though the war ended, the Sc
recy continued and flourished, bear |
ny as one bitter fruit the horrible /
tmosphere of suspicion which hangs
$ a pail over the land. 1t is an atmos
here in which knowledge and educa-
ion are the. hunted and Mccarthy
nd his ilk are the hunters.
"Meanwhile control over the Atom
Energy Commission, which the
IcMahon Act-after an epic battle
vested in civilians, is today moving
ack into the hands of the military.
"The two most important posts in
he Atomic Energy Commission are
ow occupied by former high-ranking
ilitary officers. The chairman, Lewis
Strauss, achieved the rank of rear
dmiral for service rendered our ma
on during World War II. The post
general manager, second most i'm
ortant in the Acc, is occupied by
career military man, Major Gen.
enneth D. Nichols.
"Yet who has the stake in atomic
energy for peaceful and civilian
use? Not the military, though they
sit on it so tightly and regard it as
private property to be given to
their friends of big industry and
The big private utilities.
"Of course business has stake in
ionic energy-but that does not
can big business alone. 1t includes
nall business too. Equally so has the
orker and the farmer-the con- |
lmer as we'll as the producer-the
lblic as well as the vested interests"

Lincoln assaulted the secrecy witt
which the world-famed IVA wa
menaced by the Dixon Yates contrac
and the secrecy with which big bust
ness firms "tip-toed" into the atomic
energy program.
He also scored the administration
for giving key atomic development
information to big industrial firms
and big utilities while nonprofit enter
prises ''are kept in ignorance"
Declared Lincoln: "On every side
we see saddening evidence that
people are participating less and
less in making the significant de-
cisions which affect their own lives.
"People appear to be losing their
opportunity to exercise what l firmly
believe to be their inalienable right
to have a say in fashioning their own
destiny.
MINORITY CONTROL
q. The papers are full of stories
reporting mergers of companies but
most merger stories leave out one or
two essential facts.
"In automobiles, the Independents
have to merge OR die. Ford and GIN
are on the way to gobbling up the
entire automobile field. They are
heading for a monopoly-and that is
plain for everyone to see. And what
IS happening in automobiles is also
happening in many other fields.
Control of each field of indus
try is being concentrated in the
hands of fewer and fewer people.
A few people make the decisions
which affect everyone-those deci-
sions include the car we drive,
the price we pay for it and the
number of jobs available.
eff that is the tendency in business,
this narrowing of the right to make
decisions, it is even more
the tendency in government. Military
secrecy is old stuff but that doesn't
make it any easier to digest the fact
that all things military are run on a
basis.
