FOREIGN AID
FALLACIES
By THURMAN SENSING
Executive Vice-President
Southern States Industrial Council
Foreign aid Is simply a way to
make a capitalist country pay for its
own funeral.
The point is brought out very -
clearly in tlie first rep«>rt of the Citi
zens Foreign Aid Committee entitled
“Foreign Aid and You." This com-
m it tee is composed of distinguished
Americans, including T. Coleman
Andrews, former Commissioner of
Internal Revenue: SpruiUe Braden,
former ambassador to Argentina;
Clarence Manion, former Dean of
Law at Notre Dame University, and
General Albert Wedemeyer, one of
the nation’s ablest military leaders.
The report is a brilliant expose of
the fallacies of foreign aid. To be
gin with, the- committee is not
against reasonable assistance over
seas But it points out that aid
‘should have one purpose only —
to provide for the common defense
and promote the general welfare of
the United States."
The truth about foreign aid today
is that it is impending the welfare
of the Republic.
Let’s look at the cost of foreign
aid! The Marshall Plan, proposing a
maximum expenditure of $13.5 bil-'
lion in foreign aid, was launched in
1948, with a very definite promise
from the then President that it
would be wound up in four years
That first year, the committee not
es. some 450 persons were employ
ed by the government to administer;
Strom Thurmond
Reports
RED BILL OF RIGHTS
In recet years the U. S Supreme
Court in decision after decision has,
been drawing up for Americanj
Communists and their fellow trav
elers and sympathizers a long Bill
of Rights, which the Communists
say have made it much easier for
them to operate in this country. In
a recent issue of the Worker, the of
ficial news organ of the Communist
Party, the paper's general manager.
Mr William L Patterson, Urged
more boldness by party members
with these words
. "Let's be bolder McCarthyism
has sustained-a iHuriffung defeat in
our country American reaction has
in fact sustained a number of de
feats on the political as well as
moral front
"We say this because it must be
made clear thart the prevailing po
litical atmosphere permits increas
ing activates with lessening danger
of victimization "
Here is the Supreme Court’s Bill
of Rights for Communists:
1. A citizen can be a member of
the Communist Party without being
in violation of the law. (SACB case)
2 A Communist—or any other cit
izen—may legally advocate forcible
overthrow of the government as an
abstract doctrine i Yates case i 3. A
Communist or Manner cannot be
pf^s^cuted f>r forming new Com
munist cells i Yates case* 4 A fed
era I employee cannot be fired from
a*"am-*en»iti\e'‘ job fbr associa
tom with Communists iCoIe and
Srrtiee cases)
S A witness before a congression
al committee cannot he t mopetled to

< Jencks case I 7. A person can
not be denied a passuprt to travel
abroad merely because of Com
munist beliefs or associations (Day-
ton case i
h A firofessor cannot be question
ed- by a State agency as to his be
liefs in Communism or his advocacy i
of Communism in the classroom.
(Sweezy case) 9 A board of educa-1
tion cannot fire a teacher for ref us-1
j »ng to answer questions about Com-
( munist activity (Shxhower case)
10. A Communist cannot be pros-
I ecuted by a State for the crime of
| sedition. (Nelson case) 11. A State|
cannot deny bar membership to a 1
lawyer who refuses to say whether
he is a communist. (Schware and
Konigsberg cases)
12 A Communist who has been
told to leave this country under a
deportation order more than six
months old cannot be kept under
surveillance by the U. S. Ataorney
General. (Witkovich case) 13. An
alien who violates the Internal Se
curity Act by joining the Communist
party after entering the U. S. can
wipe out this crime by leaving the
country, quitting the party, and then
re-entering the country. (Bonetti
case)
For the latest favoritisms to Com*
munists. watch your Supreme Court
decisions.
and distribute foreign economic aid.
Ten years and $41 billion later this
staff has grown to 12,000 employes
directing 2.000 projects In addition,
some 9,000 persons are engaged in
the military-assistance program
which has totaled $23 billion.
Advocates of foreign aid advance
the argument that foreign aid
strengthen the defenses of the free
world. The facts disprove this. ‘‘The
population of prosperous European
NATO countries.” the committee
points out, "is 50 per cent greater
than ours. And the NATO countries
are exceedingly reluctant to furnish
troops for their own defense. The
French only recently withdrew their
fleet uniLs from NATO control No
one on the NATO nations has sug
gested that the United States with
draw its foreign aid or its military
equipment and manpower that pro-
tects Europe from Red aggression.
Foreign aid encourages ingrati
tude an<j dependence on America at
the same time But the problem
goes deeper. A number of Central
American, South Asian and Far Pa
cific countries have received in all
more than $10 billion in military as
sistance. Yet some of these reci
pients "are hostile to the United
States."
Though we are spending billions
each year, we are not better loved
around the world. Nations have not
been won to the cause of freedom by
king-size gifts from the United
States.
Actually, says the committee, for
eign aid "has tended to promote
philosophies akin to communism."
Foreign aid to Britain after World
War II helped British socialists fi
nance the nationalization of private
property. “Our dollars,” the com
mittee makes clear, “also have as
sisted Britain to adopt socialized
medicine.” By underwriting . social
ism in Great Britain, we have done
the people of that country a great
dis-service We enabled radicals to
fasten on them a hurtful form of
government. Someday they may
hate us for this deed.
Britain is not the only country in
which foreign aid money has helped
a bad cause. By giving our money
to such countries as India, Poland
and Yugoslavia, we have helped dig
the grave of free enterprise in those
lands. American foreign aid, says
the committee, is "helping establish
the very system of .state slavery we
set out to combat."
For the United States to continue
foreign aid is a dis-service both to
this country and >to the countries
that receive it. The longer this aid
is continued the more we weaken
American strength that protects
freedom and the more unprepared
other countries are to accept the
responsibilities of self-wffiency.
