On Saturday, the author of the ‘on one ‘point: they hate and distrust free enter- ot out the differences be- ‘Communism but the cir- tween mee that Great Britain has been experi- |! menting in building up q social structure that || impairs incentive and initiative on money re- ceived from the United States, that is, from American taxpayers. -If Great Britain's Socialists hate and dis- trust free enterprise, as Leech declares, then they should have had the decency not to ac- cept vast amounts of American taxpayers’ money to experiment with their social system. Since the end of the second World War. Great Britain's Socialist government has received from the United States government a loan of $3 billion $750 million and hundreds of mil- lions of additional dollars under the Marshall Plan. They “hate” and “distrust” us but are | not averse to receiving our handouts. Indeed, the British Sotialists are eager to receive them. Recently, when it was proposed in con- gress that no further Marshal! Plan aid be giv- en to countries that espouse Socialism, the British Labor party. in control of the govern- ment. was shaky over the prospect that no more supplies or money would be sent to Great Britain by the United States. Americans have no objections to any type of government the British wish to adopt, but they do resent the establishment of a govern- ment that is diametrically against the concepts of free enterprise, which provides the incentive that makes it possible for the United States to give money to Great Britain. If it is true that the British Labor party hates our form of government, it is just as true that the party “loves” to have its palm salved with United States money. SON KILLS FATHER AND WEEPS A Massachusetts father, attempting to stop @ fist-fight between his two sons, was killed by a shot fired by one boy in a successful ef- fort to wound his brother. : The boys, we presume, were average Americans who lost their tempers over some- thing which was relatively unimportant. With one brother seriously wounded and his father dead, the other boy wept hysterically when told that his father was dead. Unfortunately, his tears could not pump life into the dead body or undo the tragedy. The probability is that the sons were at loggerheads about some relatively minor mat- ters of life. Each probably nursed the griev- ance, building up a bellicose attitude toward the other and, naturally, when an altercation occurred, there was no limit to the effort to hurt the other. The unfortunate tragedy in Massachusetts may serve to warn kinsmen of all types, in- cluding brothers, against the nursing of grudg- es, real or fancied. This can best be avoided by following the age-old injunction to judge not and to forgive. After all, the principle ex- pressed will do much to solve the unpleasant experiences of life. Democracy will inevitably live in an area where individuals refuse to accept what they have not eamed. HIT HARD AS THE TIDE TURNS Stating that this country, in its effort to give military aid to free Europe, was not “im- pelled by crisis or desperation or fear of im- pending war,” General Omar N. Bradley told the Congressmen that, “if we were,” he would recommend a greater effort than that called for in the present program. Th Chief of Staff of the Army pointed out that the present presented an opportunity to exploit the advantages already gained toward securing the safety of the Western world. He pointed out that the European Recovery Pro- gram, dealing with the material, physical re- habilitation of Europe, was thuch* larger in terms of money than the military assistance bill but that it was equally important to pro- tect the liberties and the lives of the victims of possible aggression. Using the illustration of a battle, the fa- mous General said there was always a natural and understandavie temptation to relax as the advantage moves to one side but that this of- fers the gupreme test of leadership because, when the enemy attack first falters, the initia- tive must be pressed to secure victory. He took the view that this picture presents a cor- rect estimate of the current situation in Europe. HAROLD SINES VANCE, born ‘Aug. 22, 1890, in Port ‘Mich.
