Truman Says Critics Antedated

THESE ADD UP TO HOUSING HEADACHE . . . Across the
nation, if there was any relief from the housing shortage, it was
spotty, inadequate. The twins (above) born to her in Brooklyn’s
women’s hospital made the shortage doubly acute for Mrs. Wik
. , liam Buckley. She and her husband, together with another child,
add up to five people who must share one-room apartment. Mrs.
Buckley wondered where she’d park the twins when she left the
hospital.
THE BOMB:
Do Reds Have It?
Does Russia really have the
atomic bomb?
President Harry Truman said
they did; and for once, there was
no presidential contradiction when
Columnist Drew Pearson said they
did.
But whether they have it or not,
the Truman announcement stirred
up a nest of jitters everywhere.
DEFENSE CHIEFS backed up
for a new look at the world situa
tion. Congress reacted as might
have been expected. The arms-to-
Europe program hailed the an
nouncement as added proof of the
correctness of their stand. Other
congressmen blamed laxity over
the past few years in our state de
partment and defense setup for
Russia’s having the bomb now—
if she does have it.
A noted atomic scientist declared
that for Russia to contend it had
the bomb in 1947 was fantastic, that
the date w^s "one pulled out of a
hat.’’ But he said the Soviets might
well have the weapon.
Most tangible result in congress
of the President’s statement that
there had been an "atomic ex
plosion” inside Soviet Russia was
agreement by house and senate
conferees on the 1.33 billion-dollar
appropriation for arms to Europe.
The legislators got together very
quickly on the view that to cut the
appropriation, as had been first
planned, would be an unwise move.
IN THE UNITED NATIONS. Brit
ain’s foreign secretary, Ernest
Bevin, lashed out with a furious
tirade against the Russians, charg
ing them with stalling efforts to
control atomic energy. Like Russia,
Bevin said, England wants the
atomic bomb banned, but the
British want effective control first.
Skeptics of the idea that the Reds
have the bomb were asking why
Russia w’anted to outlaw such a
potent weapon, if she really had it
—or did she think the western
world suckers enough to outlaw and
foreswear use of the bomb and thus
give the edge to any ethics-lacking
nation who might have the bomb
and would drop it without warning?
TITO:
Get Out!
Yugoslavia’s Marshal Tito or
dered nine Hungarian diplomats
expelled and accused Russia and
her Comniform satellites of “rat
tling their arms” along the Yugo
slav border.
HE STATED that his Cominform
enemies were "digging trenches in
Hungary and Romania.”
Apparently, the fiery dictator of
Yugoslavia was not frightened, still
ready to wage war with Moscow,
verbally or otherwise. "We will
permit no one to impose their will
upon us,” he thundered.
Despite the dramatic atmosphere
surrounding expulsion of the Hun
garians, Tito’s action was a retalia
tory one, since it followed within
24 hours a similiar action against
10 members of the Yugoslav lega
tion in Budapest.
TITO CLAIMED the Russians
were plotting to stage a revolution
in Yugoslavia in order to supplant
his government with a regime ser
vile to Moscow.
Whether or not the Russians had
the atomic bomb, as has been re
ported, Tito didn’t seem to be any
less disposed to quarrel with the
Kremlin.
EFFECTIVE KILLER
Navy Discovers Potent Remedy for Colds
The United States navy was man
ifesting its efficiency again—but in
an entirely different field. Veering
away from its military side for the
nxunent, the navy found a “cold
fritter” pill that was reported 90
per cent effective.
The fight to control the common
cold has been one of the longest,
most difficult in all medical his
tory. A great majority of physi-
Cripps Gets Tough
Sir Stafford Cripps, British fi
nance boss, lost no time in bringing
home to the people the import of
devaluation of the pound sterling
as an effort toward the country’s
financial problems.
His labor government raised the
tax on business profits and threat
ened to restrict dividends by law
in defending the devaluation move
at an emergency session of parlia
ment.
At the same time, the govern
ment rejected any pay raise propo
sals declaring this must be done to
prevent an inflationary spiral.
Cripps made these moves as he
opened the cabinet’s appeal for a
vote of confidence from the parlia
ment.
TRUMAN:
Way Ahead
President Harry Truman was still
battling vigorously for his domestic
program in congress. With his usual
expansive attack on • critics, he
charged present detractors with
being "160 years behind the times.”
NEVERTHELESS, the President
was making a strategic approach to
the congressional races next year
in a drive for women recruits to
the Democratic party.
In a White House radio address,
beamed at the women of the nation,
Mr. Truman pointed to "certain
people” who denounce his "fair
deal” policies as alien or danger
ous.
THEY’RE NOTHING of the kind,
declared the President. In fact he
asserted, "Our program consists of
measures which have come up
from the grassroots. Our program
is as American as the soil we walk
on. It is a program unshakably
founded on the principle that the
power of the government should be
used to promote the general wel
fare.”
Dissidents might go along with
such items of the program as pub
lic housing and expanded social
security benefits —but on the sub
jects of farm price supports, as
advocated by the administration,
and socialized medicine, there
would be some arguments about
these being of "grassroots” origin.
TOSSING A BOUQUET to wom
an’s intelligence, the President de
clared that women are not misled
by political slogans, added: "They
look beneath the labels to see the
facts.”
ROCKETS:
Far Targets
Just before the end of World War
11, the Germans reported experi
menting with rockets that could
span oceans. Now, according to
information emanating from the
Soviet zone of Berlin, German
scientists are producing such rock
ets for the Russians.
The informants, who were said
to have access to the offices of the
Soviet-packed east German police,
said the mammoth under-ground
munitions plant at Peenemuende on
the Baltic coast f was turning out
rockets at full speed.
Allied intelligence officers con
ceded they knew of “certain ac
tivity” at Pennemuende, but de
clined to elaborate. One of them ex
plained:
“If Russia is making munitions
in Germany, it’s a high level mat
ter and not for discussion here.”
clans have expressed a conviction
that the comma) cold, like the
poor, will always be with us.
The navy’s cold-killer has been
named “Corcidin,” derived from
“coryza,” meaning the common
cold, and “cide,” to kill. The pill
must be taken at the first sign of
a cold to insure its maximum effi
ciency. That it was discovered ac
cidentally is beside the point.

AMERICA:
The Big Story
The Advertising Council. Inc . has
just issued its revised booklet, "The
Miracle of America," which tells
why Americans live better, how
machines make jobs, and why free
dom and security go together.
THE BOOKLET should be pre
scribed reading for that fast-grow
ing element among the people’s of
ficials which seems to think every
one should apologize for America,
rather than be proud of it.
Approved by representatives of
both labor and management, “The
Miracle of America” tells in inter
esting, readable prose why Amer
ica is great and why every Ameri
can should be proud of his country.
In the booklet the mythical
Uncle Sam asks questions about
America which might be posed by
any typical American family.
EXCERPT: "Freedom and secu
rity go together,” Uncle Sam as
serted. "Men follow two great im
pulses—to be politically free and to
be economically secure. In Amer
ica we have won freedom and we
are winning economic security.
Dictators promise security if the
people will give up their freedom.
But experience shows that free
dom and economic security must
grow together. The history of the
United States proves it.”

“The Miracle of America" free of

Bible Perennial
The Bible has always had a
significant place in the ^ives of
Americans. Acknowledgement of
and homage to a Supreme Being is
inherent in the American govern
ment setup, with American trust in
God declared on the nation’s coins.
Therefore, National Bible Week,
October 17-23, will be observed
throughout the nation, with mayors
and governors in the 48 states join
ing in proclamations urging the
people to support the observance.
OUTLINING the purpose of Na
tional Bible Week, Rear Admiral
Reginald R. Belknap (USN, Re
tired), who is chairman, declared:
"National Bible Week is used to
stimulate people in all walks of life
to be Bible conscious and to turn
to the Bible in these times of nation
al and personal moral confusion.”
"WE NOW SEE a proud, power
ful nation, whose people the»world
over were looked up to and re
spected for their sense of righteous
ness, fair play, charity and re
sourcefulness, decayed to the point
where they are not shocked at . . .
glaring examples of moral decay.”
While Chairman Belknap didn’t
say it in words, his examples of
“moral decay” pointed at none
other than Soviet Russia.
INCOME TAX:
Up & Up & Up
Total income taxes collected in
the United States show an increase
of over 1,100 per cent in 10 years,
from two and one-quarter billion dol
lars in 1939 to just under 31 billiop
dollars in the fiscal year of 1949, with
individuals paying 60 per cent of
this total, says an analysis by the
family economics bureau of North
western National Life Insurance
company.
NUMBER of persons hit by in
come taxes has increased propor
tionately, the bureau finds. There
were 3.9 million individual income
taxpayers in 1939; in 1948 there
were 41.8 million. Although that
number will be reduced for 1949 by
the elimination of several million
small taxpayers from the rolls due
to increased exemptions and other
changes made by congress in 1948.
the list should still run somewhere
around 36 million individual in
come taxpayers in 1949, the bureau
estimates.
'Sweet Sorrow'
HMBBHF 7 r . i.X; -^RIBBIHOk
Parting was such sweet sor
row for John M. Crawford and
his five monkey charges, one
of whom he is shown caressing.
He kept the five monkeys in his
New York home. Neighbors ob

ford to get rid of the monkeys,
declaring he was violating the
city’s sanitary code.
PAYOFF:
'Unto Caesar*
"Render unto Caesar the things
that are Caesar's” was a Biblical
line that stuck in the mind of Pastor
Eugene M. Austin of the Baptist
Temple in Charleston, W. Va. Con
struing that "Caesar” meant the
government, the pastor set an
amazing precedent: He voluntarily
went to the courthouse and had
his personal property assessment
increased sixfold. He announcec
the action to his congregation.

Total Surprise
A tramp had heard that obese
ladies were a soft touch. They
were so good-hearted that they
would give unstintingly and with
out question. When he saw a stout
woman coming along the street he
stepped in front of her and put on
his act.
“Lady," he entreated, “please
have mercy on me. I’m penniless
and starving. I haven’t eaten for
four days.”
“My word,” she gasped, “1 cer
tainly wish I had your will
power.”
Example
Hubert—" Have a peanut?”
Philbert—"No, thanks. They’re
fattening.”
Hubert—" Don’t be silly. Why
should they be fattening?”
Philbert—" That’s all I’ve ever
seen an elephant eat.”
