Taft, brother of the late Senator Robert Taft of Ohio, said in Washington recently the United States was pursuing a dangerous trade policy, and warn- ed that this policy had already resulted in a state “ap- proaching economic warfare” with Canada. Taft believes the United States should develop a far-sighted national trade policy, one which would be so dependable our neighbors would know what to expect, and one which would relax trade restrictions based on false theories about economic isolationism. Taft says the United States, in its battle against Communism, will have to rely more and more on foreign resources, and that dreams of self-sufficiency in this country will lead only to weakness and isolation in a world threatened by Communism. We agree with Taft. Americans have no reason to be proud of U. S. trade policies over past years. In 1930,| for instance, just at the time when the world desperately needed freer trade and more commerce between nations, the U. S. passed the highst tariff act in its history. This jit would like to ignore. tariff act is generally conceded to have been one of the} contributing caiises of the worldwide depression shortly | afterwards, and helped to drive the British from their) traditional policy of free trade. | Although tariffs must be retained, U.

Moreover, foreign nations must be able to produce goods for sale in the U. S. without the fear that tariffs will be hiked every time the political complexion changes in the United States. ‘ The individual “with an idea” is often a nuisance to his friends. » Insurance is often carried when not needed and need- ed when not carried. Few people understand any problem fifty miles from home, primarily because they are not interested enough to study the facts. The movies would do well to stick to entertainment and leave politics, religion, and propaganda of all kinds out of their productions, HO WMAS BLN NINE MIM AMMRIA]TIE| PIEIGHEF|IISITMMAIRIE|S| AIBIE(TAMUIN!
