that at another summit
meeting we may be maneu-
vered into crushing the hopes
Of the Asians, too. This is.
at least, the present Red
propaganda line. In the Mid
die East where President
Nasser Of the United Arab
Republic appears to be feel
ing his nationalist oats so
much that he is ready to
shake of the Muscovite con-
troll over his policies, there
are fear and suspicion that
the summit conference will
bode no good for that brand
OF Arab nationalism.
Much as we have been de-
nounced as the tools of mod
ern colonialism by the press
and radio in Cairo and Da-
mascus, there was always
NaSser's hope that If he ever
were forced into head-on
clash with his protector,
Khrushchev, he could find
more than moral and verbal
support in America.
In Iran, the Soviet agents
are working hard against the
Shah. They aim either to,
force him off the throne or
make him share the fate
which befell King Faisal of
Iraq last year. The determi-
nation of the Iranian King
and his government to resist
the tutelage the Kremlin
wanted to impose ON that
country is the result of conf
dence that II 1t ever comes to
a showdown, America will
stand firm behind the in
tended victim of the Reds.
This confidence may be
shaken as the result of Presi-
dent Eisenhower's yielding to
meet with Khrushchev this
summer. The Asians are
worrying who among them
will be made the Sacrificial
goat.

comes at a time when there
is every indication that the
Peiping government is in real
trouble, not only in Tibet and
In Sinkiang but throughout
Southern China.
At Lhasa and in other
parts Of Tibet which used to
be called the roof of the
world, poorly armed Tibetans
have been waging a hopeless
fight for weeks against Pei
pings forces of occupation.
All the Tibetans have on
their side is a strong religious
and nationalistic belief which
leads them to prefer death
to the present Red regime.
In immense Sinkiang, the
nomads who are said to be
better armed than the Tibet
ans are also in open rebel
lion. The discomfort which
has prevailed for the last
three years among the peo-
pie Of Southern China, and
particularly in KWantung
Province. frequently de-
scribed by Westerners as the
ireland of China" is re-
ported to have flared up
anew.
Despite our poor propa-
ganda machine, America is
still looked upon by the Asian
people as their potential SAL
walton from the Red yoke.
The hitherto uncompromis-
ing attitude of Washington
and the American people re-
garding the Red domination
of the Asian continent has
kept the hopes of these hun
dreds of millions of people
probably higher than those
in European countries which
were placed behind the Iron
Curtain with our tacit con-
sent.

it is sound reasoning for a

means putting aside 4 cents

Strange and disturbing
words are coming from some
Democrats on Capitol Hill
these days. They have q
socialistic flavor. One doc
trine being given some in
dorsement is that profits are,
in effect. sinful; that "re-
tanned earnings" are bad and
that companies should not
save UP for a rainy day but
should let the deluge come.
These companies are being
told now that they ought to
borrow money for new CAPT.
tai hereafter and not try TO
accumulate 1t out Of earnings.
To save up money to buy
new plant and equipment
always has seemed to be the
principal way to expand the
economy through the private
enterprise system; but, curl
ously enough. now this
method is being denounced
as a departure from that
system.
Reading the testimony a
few days ago of walter
Reuther. head Of the largest
automobile union In the
world, and that Of Represent
alive Wright Patman, Demo-
crat of Texas, before the
House Banking and Currency
Committee, one comes across
these passages:
"Mr. Reuther: In the auto
industry we expanded since
the war in excess of SO bill
lion, and more than 80 per
cent Of that So billion was
paid for by the American
consumers Of automobiles.
and only 10 per cent repre-
scented new capital. I mean
something quite revolution
airy is taking place in the
American system Of free
enterprise.
THE whole concept was
that there was a money mar
ket, and If you wanted to
expand your company to the
tune Of a billion dollars, you
fioated bonds, or you went
into the money market and
you got people. based upon
the attractiveness of your
corporate effort, to invest
their money in your plant.
That is an old-fashioned way
of doing it. They don't do
1t that way any more.
"Mr. Patman: ! think you

can truthfully say that the
capital thus acquired is what
could be called costless capt.
tai. In other words, the price
Of the product was increased
enough to take enough money
away from the consumer to
put 1t into the fund for re-
tanned earnings. Of which the
people in charge would get
the benefit, as distinguished
from the old way Of selling
the goods at the lowest pos
sible price. in a competitive
market. and letting the per-
son keep that money which Is
being taken away from him
for retained earnings to in
vest anywhere he wanted to
so he would get the bene-
fit..
"Mr. Reuther: I think what
you say is absolutely correct.
! think this is consumer
financed capital. -. They
say, You want an automo-
bile. this Is the price you
pay even though factored
into that price a portion is
ear-marked for expansion.

Up to now 1t has been con-

pillow back into the company
as much Of the earnings as
possible after paying the
stockholders each year a rea-

with pride as the great
achievement of American
business enterprises--growth
through ones own efforts.
