Now, however, comes a complaint from Sirdar J. J. Singh, president of the India League of Am- erica, who says that the Asiatic nations resent, unfair, the fact that, populous as they th but one vote each in the international organization. Mr. Singh objects particularly to the twenty Latin- American nations, with only one-seventh the popu- lation of Asia, having three more votes than the Asian nations. Well, Mr. Singh may have something there, from the Asiatic point of view, but we are something le: than sympathetic. We'd like to remind him that the United States, which puts up most of the money for the UN pro- gram, has only one vote to the twenty for Latin- America and the seventeen for the Asiatic nations. From the tone of Mr. Singh’s plaint, we gather that he would favor a reapportionment of the UN vote. We might be willing to go along with him— but not on a basis of population. We s that each nation be given votes in direct proportion to the | financial burden it bears in the UN program. How about it? as are VIEWS AND REVIEWS What They Say Whether Right or Wrong Vyacheslav M. Molotov, Soviet Deputy Premier: Saturday, August 25, 1951 ARSENIC AND OLD LACE Even a little bit of arsenic goes a long way in jeopardizing health; but the pending tax bill is loaded with it. The bill might well be substituted “Arsenic and Old Lace” because the same deceptive frills are there American economy. The Communist Manifesto gave the noose its first recognition, Messrs, Marx and Engel saw and r marked that heavy, progressive taxes on income would most quickly destroy a system of private capitalism and enterprise. How right they were! In this respect we have closely followed the “party line” since1913. The normal and highest surtax rates which began so deceptively as one and six per cent respectively grew, not so gradually, to a wartime peak of 20 and 91 per cent. When the House Ways and Means Committee changed the 3 percentage point increase in the rate to an overall 12% per cent increase in the tax, it added the finishing touch to Mr. Roosevelt’s soak- the-rich fairy tale. That ingrease, levied upon present taxes for incomes over $2£‘000 would have resulted in a tax of over $1.02 for every dollar of income in that bracket. Attention was called by tax critics to this po- tential threat of confiscatory taxation and the bill was quickly amended by means of a 945 per cent maximum rate on taxable income over $80,000. However, the amendment is little more than a sop to the unthinking. In effect, it will provide approxi- mately $75,000,000 more than is now drawn from the came income brackets. The actual efect of amended bill is to make the “bootleg” dollar of un- FEpOrted Tevenue worth-meariy twenty ¢ as an honestly reported and taxed dollar. That's right. The income producers in these brackets will have a little over a nickel left of every dollar so taxed. And such a tax policy is bound to reflect itself in more unreported earnings and less paid-in tax dallars.

In telling contrast are featured the words of President Truman, Secretary Marshall, Dean Acheson, warning of the danger of v ing that we must prepare for war. It was international propaganda at its most effective, most decep- tive best. And despite the State Department’s valiant though lim- ited * counterpropaganda, hundreds of thousands of the 2,000,000 youngsters who attended the Ber- lin youth rally must have gone home with the impression that the US.A. was the big bad ogre of the world today, with the U.S. .R. their only hope for peace. Scene II—The U. 8. Senate, Washington, D. C.:—Senator Mec- Kellar of Tennessee, aged 88, chairman of the Senate appropri- ations committee is listening sleepily to State Department tes- timony regarding its budget. George | Perkins, aged 56, son of a J. P. Morgan partner, chief of Euro- pean affairs, and not exactly the Communist-type McCarthy claims runs the State Department, is testifying regarding the need for more funds to run the U. S. Em- bassy in Communist Poland. The Senators want to know why it will cost more next year than last. Perkins explains that the Lattle against Communism has become more intense, also that the embassy lost money last year through the depreciation of the Polish Zloty. “young man,” glowered Sena- tor McKellar of Tennessee, “Will you tell me under what article of the U. S.

McCarran keeps wider awake than his colleague from Tennessee. He even admits that Barrett puts up a plausible argument. Finally, however, he concludes: “I would hate to answer for the spending of all this money to pre- vent war, when I feel sure war is inevitable.” Scene IV Back in Berlin: The studio of radio station RIAS sperated by the State Department in the western sector: A group of East German young- sters have crowded into the RIAS studio. Supposedly Communists, and attending the Communist youth rally, they want to see the radio station they have been lis- tening to across the Iron Curtain in East Germany. Before the microphone come various RIAS radio perfor- mers — first a singer. She gets a terrific round of applause. Then comes a political commentator who every night takes gibes at Soviet operations in East Germany. He ico is gleefully recognized by the youthful audience. They know their RIAS performers as an American au- dience knows its Jack Benny or Milton Berle. It's a recognition | that can come only from listen- ing. These youngsters are the future generation of Germany — the kids who will really decide whether | communism stays or goes; who will fight or fraternize with Am- erican boys in the war that Sen- ator McCarran says is inevitable. Yet Senator McCarran, an old man of 75, who won't have to fight; and Senator McKellar, now 88, say the State Department’s radio program is wasted money, poured out on empty ether. Soviet Russia today spends $2,- 000,000,000 a year on propaganda. It even has 1,200 jamming stations to drown out the Voice of America —the voice which the old men of the Senaté say is waste of money. It appears so important to the Kremlin, however, that the Krem- lin spends more than the cost of radio Scene III—Also the US. Sen- ate: Senator McCarran of Neva- the Voice in order to drown it out.

An effort has been made to put in effect a 6 p. m. closing time, but the grocers said they would comply with the popular demand to remain open daily until midnight. Two grocers said an earlier closing would work a hardship on their businesses. Vera Kirkham celebrated her birthday Augus‘t 22 with a party for many of her young friends in Douglas as guests.
