(Dear Three P’s:
•There seems to be a very
■ strong element in our country
for the continuance and in
crease of our foreign aid to so
called backward countries as
well as a less stronger element
which would favor the reduc
tion and elimination of all for
eign aid. It would seem that
we have given enough money
and food and other resources
away to rebuild the world since
the end of World War 11. What
we are trying to do is buy for
eign allegiance and loyalty with
money, which we will never be
able to do. as it would appear
that the very people we have
been trying to help actually dis
like us and in some instances
actually hate us. What is your
comment?
—Maynard.
Dear Maynard:
There is a great deal of sober
thought being given to our for
eign aid program and there are
people who definitely believe
that there is a great deal of
waste, inefficiency and down
right graft and corruption. This
has been mentioned many times
in and out of Congress of waste
in South America, Nationalist
China arid other countries. Since
the inception of the Marshall
Plan sifter Wor»d War 11, we
have -given away billions of dol
lars for foreign aid, food and |
military assistance, directly and!
indirectly, and it is claimed by
some that this continual giv
ing away of dollars is one ol
the factors Increasing our Fed
eral debt, high taxes, inflation
and is actually forcing us to so
cialism. There is some question
as to our being able to buy
friendship, loyalty and allegi
ance to democratic principles.
The Comptroller-General of the
U. S., frequently criticizes the
waste and inefficiency with
which these funds are adminis
tered and traveling members of
Congress, with their friends and
families, in their trips around
the world at the tarpayers’ ex
pense use counterpart relief
funds to cover up their ex
penses.
There is a growing belief that
our give-away program is foster
ing socialism and communism.
A recent study of this givc-j
t'vay program has led to the!
conclusion that this money has
fostered socialistic and commu
nistic governments. Herewith!
is a brief summary and inter-'
pretation from this economic
study and evaluation of the
give-away program.

for eighteen months when the
oonservaitiyes won the election
and are still in power. During
the regime of the Labor Party
they followed their program of
nationalizing major industries.
Exclusive of military aid we ad
vanced this Labor party over
SIX BILLION DOLLARS. Even
with aid the Labor Party was
unable to effect a productive
economy and the production of
nationalized industries fell far
below the world averages. With
continued restrictions, high tax
es and a stranglehold on free
economy England was going
downhill which forced an elec
tion before the normal term of
government. Thy conservatives
won. restored some of the na
tionalized industries to free en
terprise, removed many of the
restrictions and actually reduced
taxes. The steel industry im
mediately began lo pick up aftei
return to private ownership, as
well as other industries. Eng
land has received less aid each
year and is well on its wav to
a stable and productive econo
my. The theory is that our
money kept the Labor Socialist
Party in power; without it they:
would have crumbled sooner.
This is also true of Germany.
After the war Germany was un
der joint military control which
attempted to control its econo
my with many restrictions as
well as its political life. We
advanced more than FOUR BIL
LION DOLLARS. The people
were actually starving and there
was considerable hoarding and
black market activities. Since
the formation and election of a
free government, Germany has
progressed at a rate greater
than any other country in the
world; the money is stable,
there is no hoarding and farm
ers are now shipping food to
the cities, where before it was
being hoarded because of the in
flated currency.
This situation also applied to
i France. From 1944-1958 France
had twenty-six successive gov
ernments trying to stabilize the
country with more and more re
strictions on private enterprise,
the attempt at socialization of
all industry. We advanced, in
addition to military aid over
FIVE BILLION DOLLARS to
bolster up the socialist type
governments. Since the elec
tion of General DeGaulle this
situation has changed, many re
strictions have been removed
and free enterprise is operating
so that the franc is stabilized
and France is showing a favor
able foreign balance in trade.
This applied to India as well.
With all of the natural resources
that a country could wish for,
India still has starving millions.
In addition to loans from the
I World Bank and other sources
;we have given in excess of
FOUR BILLION DOLLARS to
India, in addition to shipping
excess food. Because of many
religious and social taboos, In
dia has 150,000,000 head of cattle
which cannot be used for food
but are taking up vast arfcas of
grazing ground which could be'
used for other purposes. Nehru
has stated that there can be no
return from the goal of
ism in India. The opposition
party has stated that the plan
ners for India have committed
themselves to the Soviet type o;

planning and refuse the demo

platform and planning is defi
nitely Marxist in spirit as well
as in letter.
Such an analysis could be
carried on as to other countries

So it can be reasoned that all
of our effort and all of our bil
lions have been used to foster
ideologies opposed to the demo

we stopped, looked and listened
for this so-called friendship

Dear Hortense:

married man becomes interested
in another woman or a married
woman becomes interested in
another man. If you really love
and want to retain your hus
band then you want to use all
of the resources at your com- j
mand, and a woman has many.
First be calm and remain calm;
have a common sense talk with
your husband and point out to
