THE
MANION
FORUM
More than 2,000 years ago Con
fucius said that “he who mounts
a tiger will be afraid to get off.”
Better than anything else perhaps
this ancient observation explains
the continuity of American foreign
aid.
The theory, purpose, practice
and effect of our foreign aid pro
gram have all been notoriously
discredited for years, nevertheless
Congress is once more trying to
decide whether to borrow three or
four billion dollars more to pour
down the same old unfillable for
eign rat-hole.
The facts and fallacies of for
eign aid are readily available to
Congress and to everybody else.
The Kremlin has two objectives
for the United States: that we
spend ourselves into destruction,
and to persuade us to disarm.
Strangely enough, we ourselves
are pursuing these objectives with
great vigor. The greatest single
factor undermining our economy
is our 17-year-old foreign hand
out program. What we have g’ven
away, plus the interest on the
money we have had to borrow to
give away, now totals $120 billion.
This is 39 per cent of our entire
national debt.
In the beginning, the policy was
to spend no aid money in this
country, and with the money we
gave to war-torn industrial coun
tries ,they bought the most mod- i
ern equipment and we gave them
our modern production techniques.
The result is that now Western
Europe and Japan are invading
our markets with low cost prod
ucts of everything from textiles,
nails, barbed wire and stiel to
automobiles, aircraft and hydro
electric equipment.
Before foreign aid, we imported
mostly raw materials, and export
ed principally manufactured goods
—now the situation is reversed.
A new shower curtain
rod should appeal to the
homemaker looking for an
«asy-to-install item that
gives a luxury lift to the
shower or tub area.
Designed to carry the
-curtain smoothly in neat
folds, the unit shown fea
tures glides conceal|fd in
the valance. Decorator
perfect in a two-tone satin-
bright finish (gold or brush
chrome) of anodized alu- |
minum, it is available in •
standard 60" lengths which
can be cut, if necessary to fit the
tub size. Installed in minutes with
or without screws, the rod offers
spring-loaded mounted end caps
that snap it quickly and securely
111/11
into place.
Combining a new shower cur
tain with a new paint job and a
few well-chosen accessories can
residt in an all-new bathroom.

High taxes, principally to support
Federal spending, increased labor
costs, and the resultant inflation,
are pricing our products out of
world markets.
The situation has brought a-
bout a labor shortage in Japan
and Western Europe and unem
ployment here at home.
As we continue to spend more
money in foreign countries than
they spend here ,a more serious
situation has developed. Our dol
lars in foreign hands, are re
deemable in gold. Having more
dollars now than they want, for
eigners have bought more than 8
billion dollars worth of our gold
and since foreign handouts began
our reserve has dropped from 24.5
billion to 15.6 billions.
This 15.6 billion dollars are
pledged in support of our paper
dollars. If foreign dollar holders
call for more gold, the demand
could not be met without wrecking
our monetary system. In spite of
this situation, a fiscal 1964 hand
out of 4.5 billion dollars is being
demanded by the Administration,
and our planned deficit spending
continues at home.
The Communist objective t o
collapse our economy is desper
ately close to becoming a reality.
The second objective, to disarm
the United States, is also close to
achievement. In keeping with the
President’s disarmament directive,
the Department of State in 1961
issued a publication “Freedom
From War” which outlines three
stages of disarmament, leading to
an international police force un
der U. N. control.
The United States would retain
only those forces, non-nuclear ar
maments and establishments re
quired for maintaining internal or
der.
But the Kremlin respects only
force. Its greatest external fear
is the United States bomb. Free
of this, the Kremlin would be free
to implement its dream of" world
domination.
Our termination of intercontin
ental bomber production, our par
tial test ban agreement, our fail
ure to develop new weapons sys
tems, and our affinity for general
disarmament are all gratifying to
the Kremlin.
There is still time to save our
economy and maintain an ade
quate defense. We must reduce
Federal spending, especially for-

A LL Americans may well be
1 y proud of the feat of Gordon
Cooper in his many orbits around
the earth and his safe descent into
the world’s greatest ocean.
It now is known that Gordon
Cooper is a devout believer in the
Almighty God who “plants his
footsteps in the sea and rides
upon the storm.” Following in the
steps of his parents, he has been
a member of a Christian church
from childhood and now he and
his own family are active mem
bers of that church.
About three thousand years ago
the Psalmist declared that “the
heavens declare th> glory of God
JUST A THOUGHT:
The more we discover about
the earth and universe, the
easier it should become for
us to recognize that there is
one God above all things.
and the firmament showeth his
handiwork.” And from a vantage
far above the mists and clouds
of the earth the devout astronaut
saw more clearly than could the
Psalmist see the wonders of the
universe that God has made.
We cannot know whether or not
God approves of the efforts of
men in this modem time to gain
a point of vantage like the build
ers of the tower of Jbaoe*, waere
they might see how the wheels go
round, we can well believe that
He will care for those who put
their trust in Him.

From E. F. Ball, Hampshire,
Illinois: Yes I remember the so
long ago, about 1897 and there
abouts, the things that made up
life for a neophyte teenager. Altho
we were never classed as 'teen
agers’ or ‘juveniles/ we were
young people considered as such.
We were expected to grow up,
attaining along the way those
characteristics that eventually de
note adulthood, men and or wom
en. We worked each day from
childhood, helping do the things
necessary within our ability, ever
increasing in r~ope as age and
acknowledge permitted. Always
with the growing feeling that we
were a part of an operating fam
ily, united in a home.
Some times the chores were irk
some, confining and distasteful,
but our allotted work was not
something assigned as a penalty
for misbehavior, it was, and con
sidered by children and adults
alike, our place in our family, and
because of this a feeling of secur
ity always prevailed.
Yes there were times, Sundays
when the church attendance, al
ways a requirement, seemed irk
some after the first hour or so
sitting on hard non-form fitting
wooden seats, the room so confin
ing, with windows letting out onto
pasture and woodlands where
young minds wandered to God’s
great outdoors. Then the entire
congregation would break forth
into song, (they always broke into
song, maybe because they couldn’t
find the key) “Everyday will be
Sunday Bye and Bye.”
But life was so rewarding, safe
ty and home love so sure. Altho
ours was a large family of 10
o-hildren and very limited means,
we never considered ourselves
poor or under privileged. Never
did we feel frustrated because we
were not always ‘properly* garbed.
