Back in 1883 the Soviet gov
ernment gave It's solemn pledge
to the United States Govern
ment that it would refrain
from imposing international
communism within our bor-
ders. This promise has been
repeatedly violated. Recogni-
ton was extended on the basis
of these Soviet pledges. Amer
lea is back to the same funda-
mentals today.
Since 1945, Communist i'm
perialism has spread its au-
thority over many hundreds
of millions of people and. al
though 10 years have elapsed
since hostilities ceased on the
Western front, the Soviet has
not been willing to declare the
state of war at an end.
Instead, small countries like
Poland and Czechoslovakia
which were promised their in
dependence have been con-
verted into Soviet colonies.
Communist colonialism has
robbed the people of their free
dom and given them puppet
governments controlled from
Moscow with an elaborate mil
itary apparatus.
The press dispatches from
Moscow say the Soviet gov
ernment doesn't want to talk
about the status of the satellite
states and isn't anxious to dis
cuss the problem of a reuni-
fled Germany. But how can
there be a secure peace If there
is a belt of undefended states
across Eastern Europe through
which the Red armies can
march at any moment and
threaten the peace of the
Western countries?
These questions can be re-
solved without much trouble

single one of these alleged
deeds looking toward world
peace has been a decided VIC
tory for the forces of COM
Inllnisnn.
And assuming a still more
pious and sanctimonious air,
these glib apologists for
tyranny and world conquest
call attention to the many
disarmament proposals made
by the Soviet Union, and
sadly deplore the intransigence
and warmongering of the West
in refusing to accept these
wonderful guarantees of peace.
Not letting the welkin rest
even for a moment, the
brashest of the Red mouth
pieces hammer away at the
frightening specter of a re-
armed Germany while they
appeal to the West Germans
to remember that bad rela-
tions between the Germans
and the Russians have in
variably resulted in war. Com
rade Konstantin Orlov, top
Moscow press agent for the
archeonspirators. adds to this
interesting theory the fiat
statement that such bad rela-
tions have resulted from the
Vaccinations of the imperial
lists and colonialists of the

asks Comrade Orlov, "when our

more than public discussion
and argument, it will have
served its purpose. The opera
ton, incidentally, is actually
the work of the Office of De-
tense Mobilization, which has
responsibility for the execu-
tive branch. ODM is entitled
to claim that 1t is doing the
job assigned to it and that
deficiencies elsewhere are not
its fault.
Because it has not had an
aroused public opinion behind
it, Civil Defense has had
trouble not just with Congress
but in getting the military to
open up on what it has to
expect. It cannot make plans
to counter weapons and pos
sibilities about which it Is
not informed. The Atomic
Energy Commission has not
given CD its full confidence.
There are people here who
feel that nuclear warfare has
outdated civil defense no
matter how intelligently con-
ceived and expensively exc
cuted. They argue that alerts
are waste motion on the
periphery of the problem, that
the problem can be solved only
by creative political solutions
at its heart.
This. too, is being attempted
with such moves at the Big
Four meeting at the summit.
Apparently the President feels
that the present maneuvers
will at least contribute to
general recognition that the
problem is vital and that it
is here.

Increase in Business Consultations
Is Direct Threat to All Consumers

sored by Representative Gel
Ter, Democrat, of New York,
once again chairman of the
House Judiciary Committee,
and Senator Kefauver, Demo-
crat, of Tennessee, after long
pioneering by Senator O'Mah-
oney. Democrat, of Wyoming,
who was temporarily retired
from the Senate until his e!ec-
ton again last November.
It turns out now, however,
that the antimerger section
still is defective. This is be-
cause the ban it carries against
merger by purchase Of stock
or assets applies only If the
company acquired is "in COM
merce." which means in inter-
state commerce. so the courts
have held. Many recent merg-
ers, particularly in the dairy
and baking industries so vital
to every family, have taken the
form of purchase by one big
company of small companies
that operate in a single State
and thus are not legally in
interstate commerce; but yet
that sort Of merger movement
may tend to lessen competition
and to create a monopoly, as
we can easily see.
Congress purpose, clearly
recognized at the time the law
was am ended in 1850 by
the Celler-Kefauver Act, was
merely to prevent interference
with what one ETC official de-
scribed this week as "the pur-
chase of one peanut vendors
stand by another" that is, op-
erations in very small business.
But Congress was not told
until this week how the limita-
ton impedes the FTC'S anti
merger operations. 1t was
clearly a surprise to Chairman
Celler when it came out dur
ing questioning of Edward F.
Howrey, FTC chairman, in
public hearings before the
House Judiciary Committee,
though obviously the FTC had
recognized the handicap for a
long time. Nor had any men,

THOMAS L. STOKES

We have in recent months
been watching a dizzy process
sion of mergers in business.
This, as we know. increases
the concentration of control
Of industry in fewer units and
fewer hands. That has its
meaning for all of us as con-
sumers, since 1t makes 1t easier
and tempting to control pro-
duction and markets for big
ger profits and higher prices.
That Is why several commit
tees Of Congress are now en-
gagged in probing this threat
of monopoly in a series of
investigations that constitute,
altogether, perhaps the most
comprehensive examination of
the important subject ever
made.
AS a sort of guidebook. each
committee has the recent re-
port of the Federal Trade
Commission, the Government
agency charged with ferreting
out violations Of the Sherman
and Clayton antitrust laws.
That report. published May 20,
reveals that mergers are pro-
ceeoing today at a rate three
times that Of 1949, and have
almost reached the post-World
War II peak of 1867. though
the rate still is not equal to
that of the 1920s.
AS a matter of fact, it was
back in that 1920 merger era
that the Federal Trade Com
mission discovered a loophole
in the Clayton Act which was
contributing to the wave of
consultations In business and
industry. That was in section
z of the act which forbids
mergers by purchase by one
company of the stock of an
other If that tends to create
q monopoly. To evade that,
companies were acquiring con-
troll Of others by purchase of
assets, instead.
At that time, 80 years ago,
the FTC began to urge Con-
gress to plug this loophole and
repeated the recommendation
regularly in annual reports.
But nothing was done until
December, 1850, when Con-
gress adopted amendments to
the Clayton Act also barring
mergers by purchase of assets
that were monopolistic in ef-
feet. The revision was spon-
