Little Theatre Gets A Boost
Two Hollywood actresses, addressing local citizens at
I— —dion picture celebration here Wednesday morning,
uted their success in the movies to the work they did
i Little Theatre.
he actors pointed out that they “and practically all
•Hollywood stars” got their start in Little Theatre
V
either of the visitors knew that Dunn has a Little
re group and they didn’t realize they were giving a
p the program here, but that’s what they did.
Jq noticed the ears of a couple of local Little Theatre
mers perk up when they heard that praise of the
ization, too. It was encouraging news and the en
»ement came at a time when rehearsals are under
or next week’s Little Theatre performance and at a
vhen every word of encouragement helps and is ap
check of biographies will also show that a great
ber of radio, television, and Broadway stars also got
start in Little Theatre acting.
11 along, we've had great appreciation for our Little
re and such information as this strengthens and en
is that appreciation.
nd may we just remind you that on next Thursday
'4day nights, “Meet My Brother” will be presented
nn’s Little Theatre group. We advise you to get your
.tickets-now.
Why Nos Go Ahead?
General Omar N. Bradley said a few days ago in Tokyo
that the United Nations now have enough men in Korea to
stop any possible Communist attack and can win the war
on the battlefield if tr*ce talks collapse.
That statement struck us mighty funny.
Only a few days before that, President Truman told
the American people that his policy with the Russians is
one of preparedness and force if necessary. Mr. Truman is
absolutely right. That’s the only logical policy . .
During the peace negotiations, we have taken one
Insult after another from the Reds.
And if our troops can, like General Bradley said, de
feat them on the battlefield why don’t they go ahead and
«do it? -
Who’s waiting for what? Let’s get it over with and
get our boys back home!

THE CASE OF HABOLD STASSEN
HaroldStassen was appointed by
the State Department to'serve on
the American delegation at the San
Francisco conference, which was
managed by Algier Hiss. Stassen
was a strong supporter of the bi
partisan foreign policy to which
Senator Vandenlerg devoted tl)e
last years of his life. Otherwise,
he would not have been acceptable
for this position.
Stassen had been Governor of
Minnesota and on Admiral Halsey’s
staff in the Pacific during the war.
More than any other Republican,
his appeal was to youth. Whin
he was invited to attend the secret
State Department conferences in
October, 1949 to discuss the China
policy, he was no tyro. The per
sonnel of that conference was such
that 17 out of 25 persons attending
were drawn from the Institute of
Pacific Relations. Stassen could
not have represented the Republi
can Party; he was there in 'his
own right as a citizen of consider
able experience.
The State Department cannot
smear Harold Stassen as. Tor in
stance, they smear Joe McCarthy
because L'tassens’ career does not
lend itself to that kind of an atj
tack. If anything, he has weak
ened his political prospects By too
constant a support of the admin
istration’s position in foreign af
fairs. Therefore, they accuse him
of faulty memory with the impli
cation of falsehood.
Particularly on the subject of
withholding supplies from the
Chinese Nationalists do they to
tally deny Classens’ statements. He
has challenged them to produce
documents which he claii%s will
corroborate his position in the
diaries of Senator Arthur Vanden
berg and Secretary of Defense
James Forrestal. He has appar
ently forgotten that his general
statements have already been fully
substantiated by testimony before
the Russell Committee investigat
ing the dismissal of General Mac-
Arthur. Louis Johnson Secretary
of Defense at the time (1949), tes
tified;
“Senator Green. Now, in answer
to one other question that was
asked you, you were asked did the
administration continue to give sup
port to toe Nationalist government,
and you hesitated and then you
said they did not give support, but
did they give (Sic) any opposition?
“Mr. Johnson. Yes, sir.
“Senator Green. Active opposi
tion?
“Mr. Johnson. I don’t know what
you mean by ‘active’ quite, but
there were efforts from my office
at the instance of the military, of
the Defense Department, to speed
up the doing of the things they
wanted to do in the line of ac
quisition and material that it seem
ed they were asked to get, and
without being able to give you de
tails. the definite’ feeling I had,
there was a dragging of feet,- an
effort to delay.”
Vice-Admiral Oscar C. Badger
also testified:
To make a long story short,
nothing happened Questions as
to even the prices, what it was
going to cost those people (Chlang
Kai-Shek), were not forthcoming,
and remembering that? that was
approved by the joint chiefs, had
the authority of the Act of Con
gress and had the approval of the
President, 'a period of 5 months
went by before we could actually
get any action.
“Senator Hickenlooper. Action
where?
“Admiral Badger., Action to
ward the shipment or knowledge of
what was going to come, and you
can’t build a house, you can’t fight
a campaign unless you know what
is coming and when it is coming,
and therefore all the planning, the
whole thing was stopped.”
Admiral Badger testified con
cerning one shipment:
\ . .1 received word that a ship
was entering, was about to go into
Tientsin ana it had about 10 per
cent of this shipment that we had
recommended on board. I said,
‘Well, that’s pretty bad. It’s too
bad that it isn’t the full busi
ness, but maybe it will still have
a mprale effect’. . .”
General Fu Tso-Yi, who was
holding out against the Commun
ists. assuming that American aid
would come, reported to Admiral
Badger:
“The above- mentioned weapons
arc not in good condition, and for
the most part cannot be used. I
do not know how or why these
weapons were forwarded In an in
complete state.”
The Admiral’s conclusion is:
“The result that General Fu
Tso-Yi, who had his back to the
wall at that time at Tientsin and
Peiping in effect had his generals
within 2 days’*
This collapse gave Peking, (Pelp-

BEHIND THE SCENES
"No minority group in the country,” within the past ten years, has
made the advances scored by Negroes,” Lena Horne told Ted Kirk
patrick, of Counterattack, “and we would have made even greater ad
vances if the Communists didn’t deliberately try to confuse the issue
and stir agitation. Communism offers nothing to the Negro and the
United States offers everything. If I could address young Negro per
formers. I’d warn them against allying themselves with Commie-front
organizations! I’d warn them explicitly to resign immediately from any
organizations infiltrated by Commies and above all. I’d warn them not
to permit the use of their name on letterheads .until they check the
sponsorship. The main hing lor Negroes to fight actively against
the Commies, not passively. That’s what I intend to do, from now on.”'
“The World Series and even the playoff games dramatized the ad
vance of the Negro, under the American system,” continued Lena.
“Jackie Robinson, Monte Irvin, Newcombe, Campanula, Mays and Henry
Thompson are the best answers to Paul Robeson’s agitation. Robeson,
for whom I once had treat admiration, does not speak for the American
Negro, as Jackie Robinson told the House Committee on Un-American
Activities and I would tell them, if invited. Agitators, however, will
always be with us. The other night, an unauthorized group of whites
from AGVA visited me to start trouble in night clubs which don’t
permit Negro patrons. I’ll give you their names and you can check their
Commiefront backgrounds.”
a
Said tall Kirkpatrick, ex-FBI agent: “In the final analysis, public
opinion is the final judge of each one of us. Such a program as you
have outlined will be recognized immediately by the American public.
While I haven’t the power to clear anyone, I want you to know that you
can always call our office and check on any group which wants to
exploit your name, either for their letterheads, their radio programs
or public assemblies or even interviews which the Commies Will distort.
.As a Negro', you will continue to fight for your race but as you’ve
learned, the way to conduct that fight is as an American, never teamed
up with Commie-fronts or Commie agitators.”

of assorted skulduggeries. It also
fired the collect.-r in the Third
New York District not so much
for. crookedness, tot for downright
stupidity.
Then came tales of some Reve
nue agents accepting hams, fiiane
rides, World Series ducats, and
cash from their reluctant custo
mers.
This pained the House Ways and
Means Committee, which writes the
laws that are supposed to bring in
the billions. And what good are
income taxes, if the smart boys
don’t pa; ’em? Makes the rest of
us look like suckers.
So the committee hurried up
with an investigation in the hope
of regaining the public's respect for
the tax collector. It caHed into its
gold-drkped room with the plaster
eagles in the corners the new Com
missioner of Internal Revenue,
John B. Dunlap, to see what he
was doing. He said he was strug
gling toward the same objective.
Well sir, it turned out that the
Congressmen had been doing a lit
tle snooping in New York City,
asking pointed questions of the
agents who labored in the /Office
of the collector.
“Very disturbing were the re
sults,” said Chairma Cecil R. King
<D., Cali).) of the investigators.
The big, bald and blunt commis
sioner sa d what did he mean?
Rep. Kin 5 turned the 'reply over
to his a torney, Adrian Dewind,
who got toe rebuffs in New York.
Dewind said he asked these Fed
eral officials how much money they
had and where they got it. Some
of ’em never did answer.. One re
fused a reply on the grounds he
might incriminate himself.
“Another reported very great
skill in bridge s and poker, which
resulted in a steady annual in
come,” said Dewind. “Still another
had an infallible method of betting
on horse races.”
Commissioner Dunlap said he was
doing his dead-levelest to clean out
the monkeyshiners from among the
tax collectors. The great majority
of them were strictly honest, he
continued, but a few were making
it tough on the rest.
If Congress only would give him
more money to hire more agents to
check the agents checking the tax
returns, he said, he believed he
could do a better job. That pained
Rep Robert W Kean (R„ N. J.).
“The answer to all your troubles
in your mind seems to be lack of
funds,’’ the gentleman from New
Jersey said. “There may be some
thing to this, but every time the
present administration is criticized
for anything, it comes running to
us to ask for more and more and
more money. There is a limit to
what the taxpayer can take.”
