Nevertheless, Presi- NO TIME FOR NEW TAXES | <ieMt Johnson, pressured by the Let’s-Kuiid-A-New-World agi- With our Nation deeply in volved in a costly war in Asia that may go on for years, with the national debt soaring to ward $350-billion and the ‘Great Society’ budget costing tax payers S163-billion this fiscal year, with taxes at the local, state and federal levels keeping everybody’s nose to the grind stone, the talk in Washington tutors, has said the U. S. is capable of producing “guns and butter” to iln abundance, aid at tht* same time carrying on a ‘Great Society’ reformation of the American way of life that will require frightening and in creasing amounts of tax dollars to finance. Yet the President now toys of increasing federal taxes “to : with governmental mechanisms combat inflation” sounds in credible. And it is incredible: that we have permitted our Government to become so dom inant in the economic life of the population that income, spend ing, production, and supply and demand all must now be reg ulated by button-pushing bu reaucrats in Washington. Thank goodness, our econom ic system hasn’t actually reach- ed the last stage of political automation. In fact, inflation could be halted, living costs lowered, taxes reduced substan tially, and our nation made much stronger, now and for the future, if the taxpaying Amer ican public were to insist (in a great uprising of indigna tion) on a generous application if horse-sense and political courage in the white marble buildings in Washington where decisions are being made on major fiscal problems. Thrift Is The Solution No government, in war or in peace, ever went broke practic ing efficiency and thrift; no nation ever has been swept for applying war-like controls over wage and prices, income and spending. He has pushed through Congress, so swiftly there was r.o chance for public outcry, a heavy increase in payroll deductions (to go into year. We have gone deeper in debt. “Government-aid prog rams have expended extravag antly. We have neither won the war nor advanced on the ene my with any hope of victory. In the 20 years. Communism ha.' established a 44,000 square mile fortress (Cubt) within gun-hot of our shores, has in creased its power in Asia tre mendously with the takeover of China, has expanded in all direction over the globe. Now the Communists in North Viet Nam (getting their military su'tenance from Red bastions in Soviet Russia and China) have us pinned down in a hot war whose' costs in lives and billions-of-dollars are stagger ing. Crisis Measures Needed All these elements in a gath ering crisis appear to be ut terly ignored by the architects of the ‘Great Society’ in charge of “social planning.” The out pourings of money to finance schemes to “push America ah ead” by “ending poverty,” by achieving “full employment” and by making government “everybody’s friend and ben efactor” are biting deeply into the hard-earned incomes of all of us. And we’re told we have not heard anything yet, that Medicare needs expanding with “free” dentistry for the youth (but paid by whom?), that the “poor” (under $3-5-thousand , ^ , tx i income per family) must be the Government treasury). He | guaranteed a high . priced , iving has set in motion programs to halt industrial expansion, high way and other construction pro jects, even imposing harsh dam pers on the creation of new jobs and new wealth. So, ad mittedly something is drastic- standard, and that “experts” in the government are occupied with blue-printing additional "What Government Can Do For You” programs. Under these circumstances, ,, . , . , before the American public a ly wrong within the economic submjts to an increase in blood-stream of the nation. And yet Government continues to push into new frontiers of soc ial planning and spending. This is begging for inflation— and fiscal chaos. A Fool’s Paradise Many people are beginning to get an unrepressible feeling that our governmental leader ship is trying to create a Fools Paradise at a time of genuine crisis. We’ve been locked in a World War with a brutal Com munist enemy for 20 years. The cost has averaged $40-billion a taxes “to combat inflation” it ought to create a nationwide clamor for drastically cutting j or abolishing altogether all government spending for which we are not already committed, or which is necessary to win the war we are in.

In antici pation of resumption of negoti- about renouncing their right to acquire the “equalizer” of power which nuclear weapons appear to offer. THE SOVIET UNION, in negotiations so far, has at tempted to use the non-pro liferation issue as a means for ations, the Senate, on May 14. , destroying multilateral defense passed a resolution by a vote of 84-0 commending the Pres ident’s efforts to achieve an ef fective treaty controlling the spread of nuclear weapons. THE DANGERS OF nuclear proliferation are of such mag nitude that all possible rem edies should be explored, how ever remote. That, of course, is what the precise potential of a non-proliferation treaty is— remote. SINCE 1945, when the United States detonated the first w T eapon, the number of nations to demonstrate a capa bility of manufacturing nuclear weapons has grown to five. The USSR was the second, fol lowed by Great Britain, France, and most recently, Red China. A NUMBER OF other na tions have the capability to de velop nuclear weapons if they are willing to devote the nec essary resources to the effort, and several appear to be giv ing the matter serious consid eration. With the passage of time, the process of manufac- t u r e becomes easier and less expensive. In India, there are growing pressures to de treaties such as NATO. Under the NATO agreement, the U.S. has trained the armed forces of its NATO allies in the use of nuclear weapons. The U.S. still maintains exclusive control of the weapons, but NATO strat egy calls for furnishing such weapons to our allies in the event of an attack. WHETHER OR NOT a non proliferation treaty can be achieved, the United States should move as fast as possible to produce and deploy an effec tive defense against ballistic missiles. Nothing could more discourage additional nations from developing a nuclear capability than the knowledge that there existed an effective and workable defense against the most efficient method of delivery of such weapons. In deed, the deployment of such' a system by the United States, and its availability to our non- nuelear allies, would probably do far more to kmit the spread of nuclear weapons than cou’ • any treaty. NATO, ALREADY strained to tht breaking point, must not be sacrificed tr> achieve a non- ornMforation treaty There have velop a nuclear capability, and ; been rerent proposa’s to with- this trend is spurred on by the nuclear activities of a neigh boring. and hostile. Red China, which on May 9 detonated its third nuclear device in the at mosphere. Both Indonesia and Egypt have announced interest and possible intentions to de velop nuclear weapons. NUCLEAR WEAPONS are a fact in today’s world. They can no more be “disinvented” than can the wheel. Neither by treaty when there were no nuclear weapons. or Other means can the clock be turned back to the period THE MOST that could be hoped for in a non-proliferation treaty is to freeze the status quo. The non nuclear nations, who have the capability of ? -» ; ning the nuclear club, are draw bulk of U.S Army dlvlvo-'s f'om Europe, erd to share, on a limited basis, tac tical nuo’ear weapons with onr Euronean allies. Such a course should not be precluded by a precipitate treaty. CN THE FINAL analysis, a non-proliferation treaty is com parable to the proverbial pot of gold at the end of the rain bow. There is no harm in in vestigating the possibilities, provided we do not stop work and place all pur reliance on finding it. Also, should a treaty formula be found which is agreeable to all others, it should be carefully examined to make sure that its coin is r«^l|y npt ju^tU'fpoI’s gold.** (Not vrevared or minted at government expense) HOSPITAL PATIENTS Mrs. Mary Amick, City George H Attaway, City Mrs. Marie Bedenbaugh, City Hubert Brown, City.
