They vited to quit fighting and make their home in the United States. In addition, Benjamin Franklin wrote a propaganda letter, which was pure fiction and which he signed “Count Von Schaumburg,” | . had been lost in the Battle of Tre ton. Naturally, the letter ,didn’t make the Hessians feel too kindly toward their British-German mast- ers. On top of this, Franklin wrote a series of propaganda leaflets which were wrapped around quids of to- bacco and smuggled into Hessian hands. . Net result of this propaganda was that, out of 30,000 Hessians, 6,000 deserted. George Washing- ton had 6.000 fewer mercenaries to fight. In contrast, here are some of the things we are not doing, and which the Communists are doing in dif- ferent parts of the world Contrast No. 1.—Congress last week cut $20,000,000 from the State Department’s - propaganda budget The Senate originally voted all the money the State Department re- quested, but when House and Sen- ate conferees got together, House members chopped the appropriation by $20,000,000. The Congressmen who ignored the example of George Washington, Ben Franklin, et al, were : Cannon of Missouri, Gore of Tennessee, Whitten of Mississippi, Rooney of New York, Gary of Virginia, Rabaut of Michigan, Dem- ocrats; and Taber of New York, Wigglesworth of Massachusetts, and Stefan of Nebraska, Republicans. Contrast No. 2—First thing the Korean Communists did when they advanced into South Kcrea was re- distribute the land. Dr. Syngman Rhee, President of South Korea had long been talking about land reforms, but never did anything about it. The Communists, taking a leaf from George Washington's book, beat him to it. The same thing has happened in Communist-held French Indo-China and in China. Free land to pinched peasants has had a greater effect than all the quinine, medicine, and technical advice we have flown in to help the Indo-Chinese. Contrast No. 3—Dan Bell, former Undersecretary of the has just returned from the Phil- ippines with a similar r is no radical. He is President of the American Security and Trust Company, one of the biggest banks in Washington, and went. to the Philippines as head of a commission to see what we could do to pre- vent the islands from going Com- munist., He reports that the land reforms long promised by President Qu ino have nsver taken place. Quir- ino is a friend of the big land- owners, including Col. Anfires Sor- eanos, a former aide to General MacArthur. So the big estates have not been broken up, and Commun- ism is spreading like wildfire amoug the peasants, a lot of whom operate under slave labor conditions. Contrast Uo. 4—In Southern It- aly the situation is somewhat simi- Jar. ‘There the chief-weapon of the Taft, DeGasperi was warned, would feel toward Italy as he did toward the British Labor Party and Nationalization proposals. Thus, ECA money for Italy might be jeo- pardized, i ¥ Yet, if there isn't land reform in southern Italy, it is fairly cer- tain to suffer the same fate as Northern Italy, now dominated by the Communis!
