Prophets of gloom and
doom have been declaring
that this country's economic
and financial condition was
on the downgrade and pre-
dieting an early major cri-
sis.
Demagogues spelled out
fears about an approaching
calamity, particularly during
the recession. They believed
1t would best serve their po-
litical interests - and in
deed they were proved cor
rect when the votes were
counted last November.
The critics denunciation
Of what they called the "crass
incompetence Of the admin
istration" affected people In
America and had a chain re-
action abroad. A superficial
judgment Of American con-
ditions resulted In the ver-
dict that the prophets Of
gloom were about right.
One result Of the gloomy
appraisal was the Withdraw
al Of important amounts Of
gold from the United States
by foreign depositors. It is
pointed out, for instance,
that French depositors who
had chosen America among
other countries with hard
currency in the flight from
the franc withdrew some
SOTO million between Janu-
airy and April 80. This with
drawal represented not only
the renewed confidence Of
the French people in their
new government under Pres
ident de Gaulle but also a
fear regarding the economic
and financial stability Of the
United States. A substantial
part of these sums returned
to France while the balance
was placed in Switzerland,
the mecca Of international
finance.
The impression Of gloom
and doom painted by our
political demagogueS infiu-
enced even some timid d
Americans. According to re-
liable banking sources there
has been an unusual move
ment Of American dollars to
savings accounts in banks in
Geneva. Zurich and Basic.
All these fears are likely
to end now when the latest
reports show that the Ameri-
can economy is once more at
its peak and possibly more
virile than in many years.
We have an employment Of

SO million while the ranks OF.
unemployed have dropped to
a little more than 4 per cent.
At the same time the
Commerce Department an
nounced that the average
wages Of factory workers
have passed 500 q week. This
is only about IS per cent less
than the average monthly
income Of workers In West
ern Europe. And while II Is
true that our commercial ex-
ports (not Government give
aways) have declined. the
consumption Of all kind Of
goods in the domestic market
is on the rise.
These encouraging figures
do not mean that we are not
facing considerable economic
trouble. These difficulties re-
suit not only from the uncer-
tain international situation
but also from the spending
thirst of our political dema-
gogues who want to make this
country into a welfare state to
further their own political
ambitions. And the prelimi-
nary condition for creation
Of such q state is near
bankruptcy.
What the so-called con-
servatives in both parties
face these days Is a struggle
to prevent a further slump
Of the dollar, not only in
the international monetary
market but principally on
the domestic market. Such a
slump could cause more
trouble and affect the poiiti-
cal and social structure Of
this country much as a nu-
clear attack.
The Republican Party or,
for the sake Of accuracy,
those Republicans who be-
lieve in the original tenets of
their party and have not ac-
cepted the so-called Mod
ern Republicanism, have
taken heart recently from the
obviously favorable economic
situation in this country.
These Republicans, as well
as a number of their ideo-
logical friends in the Demo-
cratic Party. have been
downcast and contemplated

Fovorite- Son Status for Proxmire
Would Avert Free-for-AH Contest

II Gov. Nelson does not
change his mind, and this is
unlikely. the possibilities Of
primary contests between
Democrats will be sharply
reduced. Beginning with CAL
ifornia Gov. Pat Browns
decision to run as a favorite
son in that crucial State, the
tendency has been to tie UP
delegations large and small
by a similar means in other
States which have primaries.
There are indications that
Gov. Meyner will run as New
jerseys favorite son In a
primary which only lightly
binds the delegates. Senator
Clark may be the choice in
Pennsylvania's primary which
Is little more than a popular
ity contest. Gov. Leroy Col
Inns may choose to take this
step in Florida where dele
gates are genuinely bound by
the results. Minnesota has
avoided the problem for Sem
ator Humphrey by abolishing
It's primary. which In the last
election was the occasion for
a bitter battle between Adlai
Stevenson and Senator Ke-
fauver.
There are two primaries in
which the easy way cannot be
taken. In New Hampshire
any candidate can be put in
the race but can take himself
out. But Democrats appar-
emily are going to leave New
Hampshire to Senator Ken
nedy in 1860. In Oregon the
law requires the secretary Of
state to enter any generally
discussed candidates. in ad-
dition to those who file any
way. Oregon may end up as
the only State with more
than one Democrat on the
ballot in the presidential
primary.
What is happening is a
symptom of the acute state
Of hux among the Democrats,

for these two things is asso-
ciated In the public mind
with progress toward peace.
Indeed, there is noticeable
here an almost pacifistic SEN
timent which doesn't appear
to have reasoned very deeply
that such a manifestation
could in itself mislead a po-
tential adversary into a
wrong move which might
bring on a war.
Oddly enough. the pres
sure for a summit conference
comes as persistently from
the opposition party here as
1t does from the Democrats
in the United States. The
politicians have not forgotten
that peace and prosperity"
can work for either political
party II somehow the public
can be convinced that the
credit for achieving 1t lies
with the champions Of that
doctrine and that the blame
for frustrating the objective
belongs to the opposite party.
Actually, there isn't any
evidence yet that the parties
in Britain have crystallized
their viewpoint on political
issues. For the present, the
opposition here. as in Amer
ica. contents itself with ef-
forts to make it appear that
the party in power isn't really
as capable as are the folks
who are trying to get into
office.
But there is one issue that
may turn out to be a gift to
the Conservatives. 1t is the
British Labor Party's schism
over the proposal Of various
trade unions which by res
olution recently demanded
that Britain of her own ac-
cord-that is to say uni
laterally"-should agree to
stop all nuclear tests, no mat
ter what ether nations do.

peared to them that the
country was entering. poiti-
cally, an era in which dema-
gogues promising the people
the moon and stars would
have the upper hand in the
next elections. And all the
demagogues are among the
welfare state supporters.
Not only are there at pres
ent no demagogues among
the Republicans in Congress
but they don't even have a
controversial figure. which is
always a political advantage.
The late Joseph Mccarthy.
for instance. became such a
highly controversial figure
that the Republican hier-
archy decided to silence him
once and for all. But he did
get votes all the same. not.
only for himself but for other
Republicans as well.
Under the present condi-
tions Of genuine and solid
prosperity Of the bulk Of the
American people. it would
appear that the opponents Of
the welfare state who believe
that America is still sturdy
enough not to need assistance
from the cradle to the grave
have a chance to assert
themselves at the polls far
more than in previous years.

the 1856 presidential cam
paign In the United States
and accounted for q consider
able loss Of votes to the
Democrats. The Republican
rebuttal was that America
couldn't afford to give UP
testing unless foolproof
agreements were reached with
the Soviets.
The suggestion heard in
governmental circles here is
that, II the Socialist Labor
Party really backs the idea
OF "unilateral" suspension Of
nuclear tests, the country
will be persuaded to believe
that 1t cannot entrust the
reins Of power to any gov
ernment with such a concept
Of national duty. The Con-
servatives would be quick to
take advantage of the split
in the Socialist Labor Party
ranks. For the more respon-
sible elements in that party
are as bitterly opposed to any
"unilateral" action as any
body in the present govern
ment.
There can be no doubt that
a Conservative trend has
developed here in Britain
and that the British people
have veered away from the
naturalization" concepts on
which the Socialist Labor
Party has campaigned in past
elections. The leaders Of that
party talk less and less Of
socialization schemes. be-
cause they know that the
confusion which resulted in
such industries as we're ma
tionalized has been widely
publicized.
Conservatism in economic
matters here has made great
strides. as 1t always will when
the facts are made known to
all the people. Conservative
governments work well with
each other internationally
because they have a mutual
understanding Of economic
facts.

LONDON.-There's an ex-
traordinary parallel between
the political situation in
Great Britain and in the
United States.
Conservative governments
with q liberal flavor are in
power In both countries. and
both face a general election
soon.
No outstanding issues have
yet appeared in either coun-
try, though the nature Of the
running attack on the incum-
bent party in both Britain
and America is very much
the same.
Thus. the British Socialist
Labor Party has been trying
to capitalize on the unem-
ployment situation. just as
the Democratic Party has in
the United States. But. for
tunately, the two countries
are emerging from the recent
recession, and it looks like a
boom ahead for both. Spotty
areas Of unemployment still
exist, but the drop in the
jobless figure in Britain has
also been very sharp in recent
weeks. On the whole. the i'm
provement Of the standard Of
living here has been such
that the Conservative gov
ernment. headed by Prime
Minister Macmillan. is already
borrowing for the stump an
American political slogan Of
yesteryears: you never had
it so good!"
Political trends in Britain
as well as in the United States
are primarily affected by eco
nomic contentment or dis
content or by emotional
issues, particularly those re-
lated to war or peace. That's
why there has been pressure
in this country for an agree
ment with the Soviets to sus-
pend nuclear tests and a
considerable demand for q
summit meeting. The drive

Next springs Democratic
primary in Wisconsin which
had been expected to kill
of the presidential aspira-
tions Of one of two likely
contenders - Senators Ken
nedy and Humphrey - may
subside into a no-contest
status.
Gov. Gaylord Nelson has
told Senator William Prox-
mire he hopes to avoid a
blood-letting contest in the
State and suggests that this
can be avoided by a favorite-
son candidacy on the part Of
Senator Proxmire. Senator
Proxmire says he would pre-
fer a no-holds-barred pri-
mary, but would accede to
the request Of Gov. Nelson If,
at a later date. his candidacy
still seems advisable.
Senator Proxmire earlier
had given a generous invita-
tion to all Democratic aspir-
ants to enter the lists in
Wisconsin. With most Of the
States press in the Repub-
lican column, the Senator
thought this would be a way
to get the Democratic point
of view across to the voters.
He is still not entirely per-
suaded that his judgment was
wrong.
Gov. Nelson's decision to
take Wisconsin out of con-
test nevertheless will be well
coined by some supporters
of Senators Humphrey and
Kennedy. A friend of both
contestants declares he has
feared not that one or the
other would be knocked out
of the main event which will
follow in Los Angeles but
that both would. He has
been privately seeking an
agreement whereby Senator
Kennedy would leave. Wis

as part Of the latter's natural
territory.
