CAN WE FIGHT THIS WAR AND KEEP DEMOCRACY? __._ x * The Korean phase or opening skirmish of the war with Russia is for all practical purposes, over. The Korean ‘“‘police action’” was obviously a trial balloon by the Russian brain-trust to test our strength and speed in swinging into a combat condition. It also appears obvious that the Russians do not yet feel they are ready to commit themselves to combat with the U. S. We have comported ourselves in this skirmish as we have in all previous wars, with unpreparedness, early. defeats and retreats, and eventually with an accumulation of overwhelming quantities of men and material gained an_ inefficient and a victory in arms that fails to gain victory in peace. : The question in the minds of all Americans and citizens of the world on this portentious day of September 29, 1950, is ‘“Where do we go from here?” Do we accept the gage of battle craftily tossed (through the guise of North Koreans) at us by the dictators of the Kremlin? Or do we postpone the day of reckoning until the time the Russians can whip us? If we accept the collapse of North Korean military power as a token that Russia now will not fight the U.S. we will be blind to all that history has taught. Blind as the Egyptians who appeased the desert hordes to no avail. Blind as the Romans, grown soft with luxuriant living, who appeased the barbarians when hireling hosts were of no avail, only to end in oblivion. All history and human nature screams at us that the rich nation or the rich man is hated by his less fortunate ‘neighbors. Every nation on the face of the globe is envious of our wealth, our standard of living, and would dare to attack us if they had the power. Today only one nation has that power potential: Russia. And when that potential becomes reality we will be at war with Russia, unless we precipitate the issue. America on this day of portent faces ‘more than the question of war. We face the loss of our fundamental concepts of freedom—the Bill of Rights. Over President Truman's veto, the congress voted into law a Communist control bill—a law that can only strengthen the Communist party. Six thousands years of recorded history prove time and again that persecuted groups and _ idealogies thrive on suppression. Subversives would be the first to step forward to take loyalty oaths. The hasty oath of non-criminality does not prove a murderer innocent. Only the bright light of revelation and thorough study presents the truth to a sensible people. If the American people cannot study Democracy and Communism or any other ism and freely make their own choice we will wind up with the ism of dictatorship and the loss of Democracy. Today the Communist bill requires the registration of . Communists. Who is to deny that mayhap in ten years Republicans will be, considered subversive. We heard one of the loggers who are among the early breakfast eaters at the Shamrock cafe complain that his newly acquired wife had put a-dish of ice cream in his lunch box‘so he could cool off at lunch time during one of the recent hot spells. Elderly lady to high school sophomore: “You had better stop smoking or you'll never be president of the U. S. The boy’s answer: I never will anyway, lady, I'm a Republican. About 74 percent of all automobiles in the United States in 1948 were owned by families or individuals with less than $5,000 yearly income, according to figures of the federal reserve board.—Great Falls, Mont., Journal.

George apparently isn’t too hopeful, this time, of gettirely too much to win public approval] of the bill. But if he doesn’t keep a terrific tempest brewing in his little pot of tea, how is he going to keep on extracting a tithe from the pensions which the state pays to those 65 years of age and older? He keeps selling blue sky, at high cash prices, to those who allow self-hope to blind them to cold realities. This latest initiative, 200,000 signatures for which are now being solicited (a not too difficult feat with over 266,000 names on the pension rolls), would re-éstablish the $75 monthly minimum pension payment but asks that the pensions be scaled upwards at least every six months on the basis of the cost of living in Los Angeles and San Francisco. : ee It would abolish the responsibility the law now places on sons and daughters to help defray their parents’ living expenses when they are financially able to meet some of this cost from their earnings. It would raise to $1,500 the amount of personal property that a pensioner could own and still be eligible to be paid a full pension a month. It would provide a $150 outright benefit to pay the funeral expenses of pensioners and it would provide that the state pay, fully and without question, any and all bills incurred by pensioners for the following purposes: eye glasses, dental and -orthopedic appliances, hearing aids, medicines, medical attention, chiropractic or treatment by prayer. What a blank check! What an opportunity for the quacks and fakers that abound in California, to exploit those who feel the ravages. of years at phenomenal cost fo the public coffers. There is no limit whatever imposed on the amount of money that could be spent by the taxpayers on this score, altogether unnecessarily and improperly, by innocent seekers of the non-existent fountain of youth. Without specifying where the state is going to get the millions of dollars monthly to meet the cost, George, again, would return to the state the expense of the pensions and-all the administrative expense involved in getting the payments made to those entitled to their monthly checks. This would require the several county welfare organizations again to be paralleled at state expense by a state organization in each county. Heaven help the taxpayer against a man like this! THE UNHAPPY NID Tuesday the electors of the Nevada Irrigation District go to the polls to settle an issue: Whether to maintain the status quo of operation by a hired manager, or to operate the district by the land owners. If the electors want the status quo they will recall Directors Max Arnold and Herb Nile. Otherwise, otherwise. We personally believe the recall] will fail. Our interpretation of the undertone of the meetings we have attended indicates a general dissatisfaction with the land tax assessment of five percent. The property owners have watched the district operate for more that quarter of a century with less progress than any other irrigation district in the state and apparently are willing to try a change.
