The country is poverty-stricken and it A. GANDOLFO For Re-Election “aac Todeay’s {Jose Bernardino NEW YORK ~The price of your next fall’s suit will be easier JOHN M.

CURRY For Clerk of Criminal Court HARRY DONGO even talking of the return of the “good $40 retail suit.” The price of worsted is coming down to about what it was before ar is questionable whether the government — without large-| scale American aid — can meet these economic goals. As soon as this thought is reflected, Americans immediately respond that this country cannot afford to undertake any large-scale aid to any other section of the world, having more on its hands now than the taxpayers can afford. There are certainly many arguments against large- scale aid to India, but the American Ambassador there believes such aid is the only way India will come close to meeting its goal. He points out that the present Indian Government is a democratic government and that, wheth- er or like Prime Minister Nehru, he is an energetic, vigorous: democratic leader. , ' Both India and America believe in freedom, equality for all nations and in orderly justice and world peace, Bowles points out. If this sort of government is replaced with a Communist government — and the Communists are trying to exploit India’s poverty by every possible means at present — it will be a great tragedy for the free world. Bowles wonders if it will not affect the outcome of the fight against Communism all through Asia and into the Middle East, and pose the question if such a blow to democracy in this part of the world would not be fatal to other democratic countries. Certainly, India is a key to the Asian puzzle and, if we are not to have another China on our hands, Ameri- ean aid in some form and in an amount yet to be decided should be forthcoming. A democracy cannot be expected to succeed in India when people do not have enough food or proper clothes or even a roof over their heads, The democratic government of India has promised the people @ start in this direction and if concrete evidence of pro- gress can be shown in the next few years, the Indians will probably cherish and protect their democratic form of government. However, if the democracies allow a democratic form of government to fail in India, in its program for the peo- ple, because of a lack of help while the Communists are exploiting the poverty of the people and promising them greater things, the people of India may turn to Commun- ism. The problem of India may well become the key in the fight between democracy and Communism in the next few years.
