States and its allies must not let
up in tfieir mutual defense efforts
now because they are coming with
in sight of their goal of insuring
“peace through collective strength."
He said the 50-divislon Atlant'c
Pact defense force agreed upon at
the recent Lisbon conference “will
br'ng within measurable distance
the time when even the most fool
hardy man in the Kremlin will not
dare risk opt.n attack" on Western
Europe.
To equip the “formidable forces”
which European countries have,
pledged to Gen. Dwight D. Eisen
hower’s command, he said, U. S
arm deliveries will be “greatly
speeded up" in the next few months
Mr. Truman noted that his for
eign aid program would bring hir
total national security spending bud
get to about $64,000,000,000, and said
that raises “the serious question’
of “whether the American natior
can afford so much money.”
SAYS WE CAN AFFORD IT
He answered with an unqualified
“yes.” National output, he said, i'
climbing so rapidly that even with
the “immense diversion” of money
and resources to defense, civilian 1
should be at least 50 per cent better
off by the beginning of 1953 than
they Were War 11.
“The burden has been carried
with remarkably little strain,” he
said. “Our present security ex
penditures are clearly within oui
economic capacity.”
Mr. Truman said he would not
ask Congress “to spend one dollar
more than is necessary to support
our policy of peace.”
“But there is no economy more
false than that which is summed
up In the tragic phrase, *to litti
and too late.’ It would be foolish
and dangerous to withhold a dollar
now at the risk of expending, not
just many times as many dollars,
but human lives as well, a few years
later.”
•He conceded “shortcomings” in
the defense efforts of some Euro
pean allies, but said the United
States has also fallen short of Its
own promises in production and
delivery of arms.

\Soviet Agent
Linked With
Stolen Secrets
WASHINGTON (IP) The Army
disclosed today that a person “be
lieved to be a Soviet agent" stole
and photographed the secret diary
of an American major general who
at the time was a military attache
in Moscow. Photographed excerpts,
the Army said, were then used for
Communist propaganda purposes to
“prove" that the United States is
plotting war upon Russia.
The diary was the property of
Maj. Gen. Robert W. Grow, U. S.
military attache; in Moscow from
July 1, 1950, to last Jan. 20. Glow
was recalled because of the diary
incident.
SOME EXCERPTS
Published excerpts from the diary
included:
War! As soon as possible! Now!”
“It seems to me the time is ripe
for a blow this year (1951)."
“We must start by hitting below
the belt. This war cannot be con
ducted according to Marquis of
Queensbury rules.”
According to the Army, the diary
was stolen from Grow’s hotel room
when he was visiting Frankfurt,
Germany, last summer.
“An individual believed to be a
Soviet agent apparently entered
Gen. Grow’s quarters and obtained
access to his personal diary,” an 1
Army spokesman said.
PARTS PHOTOGRAPHED
“Parts of the dairy were photo
graphed and the diary itself was
returned before it was missed| The
photostats were delivered to a Brit
ish writer, Richard Squires, in East
Berlin.”
Squires used extracts from the
diary, the spokesman said, “to
‘prove’ that Gen. Grow and the U.
S. Army are ‘tools of waU Street
and ‘war mongers,’ and that Gen.
Grow was a spy.”
Woman Held By
Cops Refuses
To Tell Name
Who is Jane Doe? That is a ques
tion that is posing a problem to
the Dunn Police Department. All
of their efforts to find out the iden
-1 tity of the strange woman held in
the City Jail have been In vain.
Officers found the woman wan
dering about the streets of Duftn
In the early hours of yesterday mor
ning. They questioned her and when
she ’ refuseed togive an account of
herself or her reason for being on
the streets at that hour brought her
to headquarters.
Even at headquarters, the woman
refused to answer any questions
about herself. She is wUling to talk
about any subject but when the
conversation becomes personal she
freezes up and stops talking, usuaUy
turning her back on the visitor and
ending any chat she may have been
engaged in when the personal is
sue came up.
SOUTHERN ACCENT
The woman, about 40 years old,
, is clad In blue jeans. Her hair
