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

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.
Remember, there's no need
to trade your insurance!

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. Watfch for. them.
