LAW OF pantaNAbe ; APPLIES them with essential mate- rials unless there can be an ineredsé in the volume of ex- ports, The hebeiitiy for exports of paying for imports, . The present) low level of con- sumption, just now barely keeping the people alive and able to work, is supported by imports from other coun- tries.-through the use of credits.provided by the 4d States and Sanaa, wspaper correspondents wiand, notably Michael ‘i “Hoffman, of The New ois Times, describing the carisis, assért that the country \ip faced with disaster unless production is increased and that unless goods become available for, export, the British will slide into condi- tiotis of poverty unknown in the Western world in mod- -ern times, In 1938, British exports were about sixty per cent of re aie expressed in dollars. ifference was made up by Fincores received by the British from_ investments abroad, in services rendered to other nationals, in the way of shipping, insurance, etc. A& a result of the recent war, the British cannot now de- pend on these soyrces to pay for any substantial percent- age of their imports. The interest of the people of the United States in the ouatity plight of Great tain stems from the fact that the United Kingdom répresents our first and fore- ater ally. The British are, e r all, closer to the Ameri sin culture and civiliza- tion ahd the peoples of the about the same to any threat of world domination. Under the circumstances, Ba represent good busi- eee for this country to lend gaitional # assistance ta ch if it beeomes née- essary, th maintain the bees President Truman is known to be an advocate of aerial travel and the journal- ist’ and commentators ‘have depicted the worries of the Secret Service because of the proclivity of the Chief Ex- ecutive to travel by air in as | kind of weather. n making plain his inten- tion of continuing to travel by air, the Presidet recently told a news conference that, “if your name is up, it doesn’t make any difference wheth- er you are on a plane or a train or anywhere, because you’ll get it anywhere you happen to be.” While undoubtedly some- thing of this’ belief in per- sonal good luck belongs to us all, there are many people who. will disagree with the President’s conclusion. They know that it is the faith of most of those who go into combat. Not many service- men believe, before battle, ; ‘ that they will be among the slain. Nevertheless, some of them die. , Without any assumption that the President may be incorrect in his philosophy, or those who believe it, we point out that the law of percentage: is against the theory. There are places and enterprises more dan- gerous than others. The law of percentage applies to the bulk of, those who invite its applicaticn and death re- sults in proportion to the chances taken: This applies to flying in a plane, traveling in an automobile and riding on a train. other human activities. Our idea of good commun- ity planning involves ade- uate baseball diamonds for the youngsters who want to play ball. bé foolish for us to withhold assistance if our failute tauses the British to become a séecond-faté power. | Gabriel Heatter. is said to; have “earned” -$400,000 It also applies to, 2 ye ADgeriieg A B ce sehen TO EFFECT.
