Role of Vested Interests Questioned
In Propaganda Harmful to One Side

Congress who say that. of
course. President Eisenhower
Is to blame. He is really no
more to blame than was Tru-
man, under whose administra-
ton the biggest f1ght-between
the Air Force and the Navy
broke out.
Much of the trouble is due
to the peculiar viewpoint en-
phasized in recent years that
each armed service. has the
responsibility of winning the
next war alone, when. in truth.
the American people expect all
the armed services to work
together and supplement each
others efforts to bring victory.
But. even establishing this
principle seems not enough.
The fear that Congress may
appropriate vast sums for a
rival service stirs up publicity
and propaganda. and in the
course of the discussions some
other armed service is dis
paraged.
To what extent is this prop
uganda supported with the
funds of those with a vested
interest in the outcome? It's
an old story but nevertheless
an important one. They worry
hereaboutS concerning cam
paign contributions to Sena-
tors who vote for gas legisla-
ton. but nobody seems con-
cerned about contributions
from defense contractors.
President Eisenhower has
been trying to preserve har-
mony among the armed serv-
ices and has succeeded fairly
well. But when a prominent
Democrat starts a COMPRESSION
al investigation endeavoring to
prove that the former COM
mander in chief of allied
forces in World War II in eff
feet has neglected the best
interests of his country by not
allowing all the preSent-day
expansion in the military serv-
ices that is sought. and when
all this agitation is developed
on the eve Of the presidential
election, it is natural to sur
mise that partisan politics is
responsible at least for much
of the present Juror.
The broad perspective is
rarely applied. The discus
sions do not begin usually with
the simple fact that America

Open House: open house at the

of the personnel, were on hand to
give you any information that you
might seek and show the different
club rooms. One of the many
things of interest was a voting
machine on display, that will be
used in the next election. On

Progress, Profit

The wheels Of business and in
dustry have turned faster and
faster throughout our history -
all Americans have moved ahead
because of the hope for a fair re-
turn, a fair reward, a fair profit.
No other people in all history
have made such rapid and sub
stantial progress as we Americans
working with the enterprise sys-
tem-the profit and loss system.
The pattern for progress in this
country has been: fair profits for
more investment in better tools
for greater production in less time
for higher living standards.
