Many diverse factors are responsible for this condition. Among them are rigid and inflexible state controls, the almost complete absence of competition’ as we understand jit, and the lack of a distribu- tion system which is anywhere near ade- ouate for Russia’s population and area. The contrast with this country is glaring. Here, to still use meat as.a typical example, we have free agriculture. We have an in- tensely competitive meat packing indus- try; Which, offers the producer. a year- bround cash market and which moves the meat supply to the centers of demand, And we also have an intensely competitive re- tail industry which performs the’ last step in bridging the gap between producer and consumer, What is true of meat is tyue of most other commodities. If performance means anything at all, the controlled economies are abysmal failures—they produce a low level rather than a high level of living, A Voice af America transmitting sta- tion is being built in Greece which goes to show that U.

Barkley expresses the peculiar opinion that the Democratic party has made the Nation “more prosperous, more content, and more universally em- ployed, than at any other period in his- tory.” He says the party has got the best program known in many years and that “we are proud of our record and make no apologies for it.” There.seéms to be no use td waste words in refuting the Veep. Evidently Barkley finds it easy to talk through"his hat, since he seems to be well- pleased with his new matrimonial event.
