Caaaaala* Dear Three Ps: It used to be a common ac cusation that the United States, personified in the cartoon as Uncle Sam, as like Scrooge and Shylock, was tight fisted, ungen erous and always seeking its own profit. Recently this accusation has been coming to the fore again in foreign propaganda and in other ways. It seems to this Mter writer that this is not le and never has been true, thkt we never have been self seeing. Cuba in all of its prop aganda alleges this in many ways, particularly as a capitalis tic country exploiting smaller countries. What is your com-| meat on this?. —Lucifer Dear Lucifer: There was a time when this country. was accused of being rather narrow-minded in regard to money matters and in being backward in taking part in world affairs, and polities. The Russian and Cbmmunistic propaganda is full o| these kinds of accusa tions find Castro of Cuba, is following the same line that we are a capitalistic exploiting country at the expense of weak er people. Before World War I we par- only in a minor way in world affairs, but since then and particularly since World War IlAve have taken a very active part in World affairs. There is no country today that has contributed as much as the United <States toward the im-; provemejnt of backward coun-j tries. After World War I we were responsible for bringing back countries that had been seriously hurt economically as the result of the war and since World War II we have given away billions to restore the econ omy of countries whose indus trial economy had been destroy ed as a result of the damages in curred in that war. Germany is today one of the foremost productive nations in the world as a result of our help; France has been helped back as well as Italy. We have helped re store Japan and Korea from the ravages of the war. Under the Marshall Plan this country has contributed billions of dollars to bring backwaid ojum tries more in line with Sire progressive countries of tlfe world. One of the problems is the backward methods in agriculture and in industry. We have spent millions in teaching the natives of other countries modem methods of agriculture and we have given money to establish modern productive plants for the manufacture and production of products for which the various countries were best suited. In addition we give away hun dreds of scholarships to foreign ers so tl»at they may study in this country at universities ol their choice so that they may be come more familiar with mu ways of democracy We bear the major expense, out of proportion to our popula tion, to the support f the United Nations and we are a greater contributor to the various funds needed for carrying out the pur poses of the United Nations. In •Ad®lion we have created and we are the largest stockholder of the Tforld Bank which loans money 1 to backward countries at very loir interest rates and under favorable terms. The purpose of the'.World Bank is to help backward countries help them selves and to develop leaders in various' fields of industry. The World bank is helpful in other ways than the lending of money under favorable terms. The World Bank arranges for a com plete survey of the contemplated projects, and gives expert advice as to the economic program of any country seeking aid. In this way many countries have been ■Med in starting new industries Which have fortified their local In the field of individual con tributions tor the benefit of the wqrlri, no country has any or giWßaUon such- as the Roeke JlUnr | Foundation, The .

No Lost Colony Begins 20th Season on Roanoke Island JSII jpi; i : Vi-. - B | B|W |HP4pp| Several thousand dollars have been spent in recent months on renovating Waterside Theatre (top photo) overlooking historic Roanoke Sound for the 20th opening of Paul Green’s symphonic drama The Lost Colony which took place Satur day night, June 25. at Manteo. There will be performances nightly except' Mondays, through September 4 this year. The theatre is located at the actual site of the original happenings of the Lost Colony of 1584-87 when England was con ducting exporations, building a fort and laying out a town and then actually; sending a group of men, women and children to settle here in the New World. Relief ships returned to England, and were unable to return with supplies until four years later.

No, we could hardly be term- I ed a Scrooge country, we mignt ' be termed a little bit too gen- I erous and foolish in the giving away and the spending of this| money. Our debt has increased tremendously and the Secretary of the Treasury, Mr. Anderson, has just requested Congress to ; increase the debt limit to §295 Billion Dollars. But in spite of this Congress is considering the budget item of foreign aid in. the amount of Four Billion Dol lars. We could hardly be called Scrooge or Shylock in view of these large contributions and ex- 1 penditures for the general bene-! fit of mankind. Dear Three P’s: In our office a very attractive widow works as a receptionist. She is shy in many ways and is reluctant to indicate that she is interested in a very fine single man in the office. 1 want to tell her to go ahead but I am afraid 1 may upset her. What do you advise? Puzzled. ' Dear Puzzled: 1 In spite ot man’s opinion to the contrary, the woman always puts out the net to catch her fish. The matt may think that he is the one that has caught his woman, but first he suc cumbed unknowingly to the lures of his woman. If your friend's really interested in this man she should throw out the net in her own way and if she is what you think she is it will not be long before the fish will follow the bait, hook, line and sinker. Have a word with her and tell her to go to it and two people in the world will he happier as a result.
