P«(e Twelve • ‘ 5 •h WASHINGTON AND THE CLINTON CHBONigLy Thursday, January "SMALL BUSINESS" B v C WILSON H A R D f R One at major activities of the International "Cooperation Ad ministration, latest name for for- ei*n give away agency that started out as Marshall Plan and which has given away some $70 billion in U. S. taxes. Is press a gentry. • • • At the dropT™ of a taxpayer's dollar, ther appears corps of " eminent pal press ageati ready to ex plain why that dollar shonl ^ be taken awa; from the payer’s family and community and given to Timbnctoo. One of these press agentry efforts is publishing pamphlets on each country re ceiving U. S. gifts. • oo For example, the boys have just published a little treatise on Mexico, identifying it as one of the 19 Latin American countries on the receiving end of II. S. tax money. o*o Mexico, fourth largest nation in the Western Hemisphere, with an area more than three times the sise of France, has rich re sources beyond description. Yet a large share of her 3# million people are on a constant verge of starvation., • * .* Obviously. Mexico needs capi tal for development of these re sources, And apparently the people of the nation do not have the necessary capital. Yet in 1933 with passage of an expropri ation law. the Mexican govern ment barred the door to outside capital coming into the country. • * *, In addition, some industries © S»Uimi»I r«fcr»Uon of InduMOdwH snch as the are natiaaalteed. The govern ment also runs collective farms. * * * Undoubtedly the spectacle of millions of Mexicans starving in the midst of plenty is an unhappy paradox. Yet U. S. State Dept, which now controls U. S. .give away funds, apparently hesitates to suggest to Mexican govern ment that it can lift its economy out of the doldrums with little, if any, difficulty. o e o Bat instead, the over-burdened V. 8. taxpayer is Upped U aid Mexico. '0 0 0 It is understandable why Gov. J. Bracken Lee of Utah is using every strategy he can to force a court test on the legality of using U. S. taxes for foreign >aid. fe * * * . After all, he heads a state founded by pioneers who had no money, who settled in an area possessing little in the way of proved resources. Yet by their own bootstraps, with no help from anyone, they built an economi cally healthy commonwealth. • * * Naturally, with the means they command for putting on a “big smear,'' internationalists at work in U. S. will hold up Gov. Lee for derision on his stand. • • But sooner or later, and the sooner the better, the majority of the American people will have to realise that the way to world tranquillity does not lie in the bankruptcy of the Uniti'd States of America. Giving U. S. tax dollars to Mexico, with its vast resources, is ridiculous. It is almost as if a special March of Dimes were 16 be held to solicit help fhr the firm of J. P. Morgan. . : A Personal and Social ws of Joanna CECIL O’DELL.
