To the People of Noble County,
Thank you for responding so
nobly to the trick or treat appeal
for funds for undernourished, i'll
bodied children. Preliminary re-
turns total $96.22 and indications
are $4,000 will have been given
to UNICEF from our county.
We in comfortable America
have little conception of the desti-
tuition and loW-grade living that
children in Africa and South
East Asia, or other Eastern coun-
tries have to endure Our children
have sweets galore and full meals
every day. They seldom have an
adequate meal once a week, not
to mention meats or sweets. They
live not far from the line of
starving; we live not far from the
line of WastefulneSS.
Perhaps we are getting close to
the classic remark of Marie An
toinette, made about the cries for
bread of the starving people of
Paris; Let them eat caker"
1t could be possible that a little
of the food or medical help is be-
slowed on children of countries
not seeing eye-to-eye with the
leaders of our nation Should the
children be punished for the sins
of their fathers? Does our leader,
Jesus Christ, admonish us to
overcome evil with good" Il was
hungry and you fed me; l was
sick and you visited me-"
In this Thanksgiving month, let
us show our thankfulness to God
by giving.
Sincerely Yours
Parker West

Reports from Copenhagen
where the NATo foreign
ministers are meeting seem
TO indicate that the moral
diplomatic victory obtained
by the United States as q
result Of Russia's veto Of our
Arctic inspection proposal
has been short-lived.
When the Russians cast
their $50 veto. American and
foreign diplomats In Wash
ington were In an optimistic
mood. This. they said. shows
clearly TO the rest Of the
world the ultimate agrees
sive detectives Of the Soviet
Union. It would prove hence
forth clearly TO our European
allies that the Khrushchev
proposals for q summit meet
ing are nothing more than q
cheap propaganda gimmick.
The private talks held by
Secretary of State Dulles with
his British colleague. Selwyn
Lloyd, and other foreign min
isters have been disappoint-
ing. according TO some re-
ports. The desire TO push US
into q meeting with the
Soviet dictator appears as
strong as 1t was last winter
in Paris when President Eli
senhower was pressured into
accepting the offer Of Stain

At Paris we insisted on
some safety clauses. These
were preliminary talks at the
ambassadors level Of the

cerned with the relaxation Of
tension. 10 be followed by a
Big Four foreign ministers

meetings had shown concrete
results and established a
definite "area Of understand

Peace: An Economic Dilemma

terprise all around II we and
the Soviets could wink at
each other and whisper. I'VE
both know these aren't made
to shoot. It's just to keep the
people well fed, well housed,
and we'll clothed"
But the Soviets are in an
other position altogether.
Theirs is still a pioneering
economy. They have vast
provinces almost empty Of
population for internal colo
nization. Practically the
whole population needs new
housing, and wants cars, re-
frigerators, gas stoves, bath
tubs, schools, shoes, clothes,
consumers goods Of every va
riety. Eternal preparation for
a war that isn't intended to
come of does not help feed,
clothe, and house the Russian
people. 1t does the opposite.
So, it seems to me, there is a
realistic reason why the So
viets should sincerely want to
terminate the cold war.
Actually, only the United
States has any economic in
terest in its continuance, and
the United States has to pay
through the nose for keeping
it up. No other nation can
afford it.

Evidence iS rapidly accumu-.
lating that the Brannan plan
by any other name smells
sweet to present-day Repub-
licans and Democrats alike.
Charles F. Brannan was
Secretary of Agriculture in
the Truman administration
when he offered a farm sub
sidy program under which
the Government would make
up the difference between
the market price of specified
crops and a stabilized price
profitable to the producer.
That fine old word. con-
tumely. is a good description
of the treatment. accorded
Mr.. Brannan and his idea
during those feverish days Of
Republican resurgence and
Democratic decline. In the
1852 campaign "Brannan
plan" ranked high among the
unmentionable but often
mentioned sins Of the Tru-
man administration.
A few years later that
stern foe Of New Deal farm
policy. Secretary of Agricul-
tur Benson, was confronted
with the very real problems
Of the distressed wool growers
Of the West. Blandly he
offered Congress a program
under which the Govern
ment would make up the diff

approved it and President
Eisenhower signed, the bill.

not just for their own sake,
but so that embattled West
ern politicians would not
revengefully vote against the
reciprocal trade agreements
and foreign aid.
Mr.. Seaton thought long
and hard and has now Of
fered Congress a program
under which the Government
would make UP the difference
between the market price of
copper, lead. zinc, tungsten
and f1uorspar and a stabil-
lied price profitable to their
producers. Congress has still
to act on it but gave vent to
no reminiscent cries of out
rage.
These lessons apparently
have not been lost on a
rather junior member of the
Senate - Herman Talmadge
of Georgia. His civil rights
views will never get him the

He has now proposed to the
Congress a plan under which
the Government would make
up the difference between
the market price Of cotton
and a stabilized price profit
able to the cotton farmers Of
Georgia and elsewhere in the
Nation.
This, Of course, opens the
door really wide to friends
of distressed producers Of
other crops.
For example, the dairy
farmers can be expected to
call the possibilities to the
attention of Senators Thye
Of Minnesota, Republican,
and Proxmire Of Wisconsin,
Democrat. Both have un-
availingly tried to persuade
the President and Mr.. Ben
son to moderate their present
dairy price support stand.
and both are up for re-elec-
ton this fall.
The situation is replete
also with possibilities for re-
forming the old alliance of
Southerners and Westerners
which so largely framed
earlier farm policy. 1t is
coalition season here already
with the economic conserva-
tives of both parties taking
over recession policy.
The more things change,
in short, the more they are
the same.
