H There is especial need at this time to enlist puniic | support for the bond-buying campaign because the Trehsury will soon be unable to fight inflation by using budgetary surpluses to retire bank-held public debt. Owing to a combination of foreign aid, increased military expenditures and tax reduction, little or no net debt retirement is expected during the coming fiscal year. On the contrary, the Treasury may be forced to borrow to cover deficits. Howevér, to the extent that the public responds to the appeal to buy bonds with -their savings, the Treasury will be sup- plied with funds that can be used to retire Govern- ment securities held by banks—an anti-inflationary operation. At the same time the money invested in savings bonds withdraws money from current use and thus helps to hold down prices of consumer goods. The annual income of the American people has been increased by several billion dollars because of tax reduction. By investing that money instead of spending it, they will be assisting Government efforts to prevent further declines in the purchasing power of thé dollars they earn and the dollars they save. Self-interest, therefore, reinforces the official appeal to buy more savings bonds. (Cincinnati Enquirer) In a fine spirit of self-sacrifice, Speaker Joseph W. Martin of the House of Representatives has made a public offer of his readiness to go to Moscow and talk with Joe Stalin and settle the world’s troubles, just as he talked to John Lewis and settled the coal strike. Speaker Martin is entitled to the thanks of the country for this offer; but the country is entitled to some protection against any more settlements on the Martin- Bridges pattern, If his deal with Lewis is a fair criterion, we can suppose his settlement with Stalin would be equally disastrous. One can always patch up a truce by giving ground. Speaker Martin, we fear, would hand the Russians Finland, Sweden, Greece and Italy, in return for a promise to be good. And then he would come back to receive the plaudits cue a hero. Appeasement has some attractions, as a method of keeping peace—at home and abroad. But in the long run, it invites disaster. Our problem today, in foreign policy, is not so much to avold war as to avoid the theft of Western Europe by the Soviet Union, using measures short of war.
