B«n*on 1 PRESIDENT-NATIONAL education ?rocram SMrcy, Ark*i»4» SPENDING AND POWER If r Congress is determined to follow the leader, who contin ues to insist that the optimum stat* of the union required con tinued domestic spending on a deficit basis, there must surely be an increasing dialog around the nation on the merits of all federal spending and certainly on each fresh project that is presented. It now appears that niany citizens haci maintained fdlse hopes, prior to Mr. John son’s message to Congress, that perhaps the poverty pro gram and other pump primers would be cut back, favoring both fiscal sanity and a better effort in South Vietnam. .’But despite this kind of sen- tiinent that has been building up for months toward re-ex amination of domestic spending, the Administration has indicat ed that it will resist and oppose deliberate consideration and de bate on its spending proposals just as it did in the earlier ses sion, during which much un necessary dispersal of federal money borrowed by the federal government was hastily ap proved by Congress. It seems that the American people this year will have to expect unus ual effort from their Senators and Representatives if the spending .siren is resisted. ' Beating The Bushes At the feame time, a contin ual barrage of propaganda to prepare ' Congress for more spending !/ hds be^h undertaken. Vice President Humphrey, for example, ^las ’-beefi telling the people that - nYdte bills for the Great Society must be approved by Congress Jest massive vio- lence'erupt Inroughout the ur ban areas of the nation. Is this the kind of “party line” to be expected from an Administra tion that cherishes the support of massof votes in the 1 ciftr-S - 'the nation? ether this is < toward Con ation to acti- h#, violent ele- ftstrate their new power. City Mri’Humphrey said, '^afith violence that ARE YOU TRADING FOR A NEW CAR? ' 0'g. ¥& '%• will make Watts “look like an j afternoon picnic” unless the demands of the poor are met. j Well, this is actually an effort* to club Congress into continued submission, and it is exactly the “go ahead” that profession al agitators want. Even the Communist fronts and their splinter groups can get in on the ride and take credit for this maneuvering of the U. S. Congress. Our national leadership, it seems clear, must very soon find ways to minimize the ef fect of such emotiopal out bursts upon the conduct of the national government. We can not allow violence and agitation to determine our course. We cannot continue to urge upon Congress the passage of bills for fear of blood running in the streets. Congress can hardly conduct its business for the whole people, when some group is threatening to kill and des troy unless action favoring their group is forthcoming. This puts the professional agi tators in charge of the nation. The further pity is that these divisive tactics contribute to the building of conflicts and ten sion that separate cur people into uncooperative, opposing camps. This can destroy Am erica. ,We have had enough of these latter - day efforts to create class hatreds and dis tinctions. But this sort of thing is greatly to the liking of Com munism, for it provides the Reds a toe-hold they could never maintain if Americans were un ited and devoted to construc tive, sound thinking about what is good for the whole of Am erica, not its parts. Compulsion and coercion and threats cannot become the pat tern of public conduct as we attempt to resolve public is sues. Labor organisations very well could provide more posi tive leadership in this area, but unfortunately they have not yet distinguished themselves in this regard. Unions can, when ever they please and however flimsy the excuse, shut down whole industries. The uses of power in this complex society, and the abuses thereof, must concern us all. The application of force here brings reaction there. The gov ernment, if it has not already initiated the action, takes no tice and applies remedies that further complicate matters. Soon we. are a nation of squab bling groups being refereed by a spending government that thinks it has everybody’s ans wer and yet is possessed by its own itch for power and control. We are approaching the last bastions, the freedom of in dividuals and the existence of our traditional institutions. We tnust proceed with utmost cau tion.

' YOUR PRIVATE BANKERS" 1418 Main Street • : Phone 276-1422 f«1 Anderson joins Jersey Club William Henry Anderson, Rt. 3, Newberry has been named a member of The American Jer sey Cattle Club. He is a breed er of registered Jersey cattle. Anderson’s application for membership in the national or ganization of the Jersey breed was approved at the last meet ing of the Club’s Board of Di rectors. The action gives him a voice in the management and conduct of the affairs of the breed and also entitles him to register his purebred Jerseys at special membership rates. BEHIND THE MARCHING FRONT Spring is when a young man’s fancy turns to thoughts of — demonstrations, peace marches and teach-ins. ,.(And a young,woman’fjifancy too; if you look closely, those ARE members of the fair sex who straggle along-in the par ades to End The War In Viet Nam.) We’ve heard all their tired slogans a thousand times be fore. Why is it that the fancies of a thousand students—who ought to be doing their home work—turn once again to pro testing the war against Com munism in Southeast Asia. Is it all a monstrous coincidence? We’re afraid not. The Communist party, USA, has publicly announced its in tention to direct activity to wards young people. A^few years ago, the Senate Internal Security Subcommitt ee exposed a Communist plot against the police of the free world. This plan included a Wide range of points; how to mani pulate crowds; how to demon strate in a manner which will frustrate the police; and how to ensure that the demonstra tors, not the police, achieve their goal. The Communist-spawned W. E. B. DuBois Clubs have been among the leadership of the Protest movement all along. Other far-out radical groups in volved in the New Left fancy themselves to be aligned. with Peking or Castro instead of Moscow. There are even cadres of American youths who will help you contribute money to the National Liberation Front (the political wing of the Viet Cong). - „ Then there are the “hangers on” who may or may "not know what they are Protesting and why. Whether the - know or not doesn’t make any if *^rence to the Communists, who are reap ing a rich harvest from the tur moil. The Senatelnternal Security Subcommittee recently released testimony on the subject of Communism and American youth. Included were the re marks of Stanford University’s Dr. Stefan Possony, a renown ed expert on Communism. * He will, appear on the Maych 27th Manion Forum). Here is What Possony toldy the Senate com mittee. •' 'iv " T! “In the Communist view, de moralizing the enemy is a chief task of Communist leadership; The great agitation which is engulfing the United States to day is not rust an academic de bate about the merits of our strategy, or a cool assessment of alternate and perhaps better courses of action. It is one of the crucial operational-under takings both in the Asian war and the overall protracted world of conflict, v “The turmoil which we are witnessing presently, regard less of whether it is spontan eous, partly controlled, or fully controlled, and. regardless of whether the control originated in the United States, is a stra tegic operation directed against this country.” We see by the Communist pa pers that you can look forward to lots of Protests , in the very near future.
