Page Four THE MEANING OF THINGS BY ZALES N. ECTON U. 8. Senator from Montana Hare is a flat admission by Presi dent Truman that his planned spending and give-away program is definitely inflationary, and that even the unwarranted control laws he is demanding will not stop in flation: "In response to your question let me say that I cannot guarantee the American people that we will have lower prices and a lower cost of living than we have today, even if the Changes (I) recommended in the Defense Production Act are made. The inflationary pressures are pro bably going to be so great that it Will be hard to hold the line even with the strongest kind of law.” —From letter by President Tru man, published in The Congression- The HERALD-NEWS Established in 1913 Continuation of The Wolf Point Herald, The Roosevelt County News, The Fort Peck Leader, The Wolf Point Promoter.

OPPOSITE MEW SHERMAN HOTEL al Record, August 30, 1951 Why will inflationary pressures be so great? Why will the present Price and Wage Control laws not hold the line? I think it is quite obvious why the President did not state why this great, productive nation is in such a state of confu sion. Let Us Face The Facts Since July 1, 1951, we have spent $3,246 billion more than the Treas ury has taken in. Our national debt of more than $256 billion keeps growing. In the face of this we are now going to give another $7.3 bill ion to Europe—a bill that I voted against. This gift we are tossing to Europe, more than wipes <»ut the proposed tax increase. It brings our gifts to Europe, since Mr. Tru man became President, up to more than $43.5 billion —enought of our American tax payers’ currency to make a blanket 30 feet wide en circling the earth. Is it any wonder we have inflation? To make this newest gift of $7.3 billion to Europe. Montana tax payers ave to dig up about $28,000,- 000. And still the federal deficit this year will run between Ten and Twenty billion dollars, made up JUJBLHAITL O ITOa IA L THE HERALD - NEWS, Wolf Point, Roosevelt County, Montana with printing press money—check book credit. Our present federal debt is greater than the total debt of all other nations on earth. The totar national debts of France, Italy Great Britain. Ireland. Holland Belgium, Luxembourg, Denmark Norway, Sweden, Portugal and Austria amount to only slls bill ion—not even half as much as the debt of this country of ours. American ECA dollars were used to pay $1,202,300,000 in retiring debts for the Socialist governmem of England. France. Denmark, Nor way and Austria. We have rebuilt Europe’s industry so that its pro duction is now 144 percent of its pre-war best. We have bolstered their governments with American dollars. Now our spend-thrift pollci cal planners say we have to give them $25 billion more in three years in order to give Europeans the incentive and the guts to say “we will fight to defend ourselves against communist aggression." We cannot load courage on a boat and send it to them, nor can we buy their respect or good will with bill ions of our taxpayers' dollars Trusted friends and allies cannot be created by bribery. Global Policy Is Foolhardy In selling this global adventure to the American people our federal wastrels arc giving us deliberate inflation anil undermining the sound constitutional economic system on which Americans developed the highest standard of living in the world and became powerful and productive enough to win universal respect. Under our present Ad ,ministiation American prestige abroad has sunk to a new low. and our silly planners are bankruptin o the nation trying to buy it back again. Demanding ever higher and higher taxes and bigger and bigger spending authority, forcing inflat ion upon us. they entirely ignore the 25-year-old threat made by Lenin and Stalin: “To destroy the United States as a world power we will force them to debauch their currency and spend themselves in to bankruptcy." Certainly I will support any de fense plan necessary to defend America or any war that Russia starts. I have never opposed help for unfortunate, hungry people of any country But I definitely oppose this silly policy of baling out bill ions of our taxpayers' dollars as gifts to Old World governments and ruining our own economy. We are told General Elsenhower is winning support for America in Europe. Let us not forget that General MacArthur won whole some respect for us in Japan. But Truman fired him because Mac- Arthur wanted to win and end the war in Korean. Now. step by step it is found necessary to adopt the policies he advocated. What America needs most now i' more discretion in spending federal dollars and more integrity in gov ernmental affairs. With men of integrity and vision at the helm we would have no fear of either in flation or communist aggression. WOLF CREEK Mr. and Kirs.
