Corporations For Sale
Physically speaking, New York’s famous Wall Street
isn’t much. As Anthony M. Reinach writes in The Free
man, “It begins at a graveyard and ends ingloriously at
the brink of the East River.” But, he goes on, “Wall Street
is significant in that it spmbolizes the basic freedom most
Americans take for granted the freedom of an individ
ual to seek opportunity and expand his own well - being
through the ownership and exchange of property.
Wall Street is the home of our principal stock ex
change, and other allied financial institutions. Without
it, Mr. Reinach points out, we wouldn’t have the big
companies which make, for example, steel and oil and
farm equipment “Therefore, there would be no cheap
oil, no cheap steel and no tractor a farmer could afford to
buy.” And there wouldn’t be all the thousand and one
other goods and services our corporations produce.
Mr. Reinach make* another very important point.
“Every business day more than 20, 000 companies are in
the process of changing hands," he says. “They are con
stantly ‘up for sale’ in the form of paper known as shares
of common stock.” Anybody can buy this stock in small
or large quantities, at prices which are made pubblic every
business day and which are established in a free market.
Thus, everybody can go into the oil business, the coal
business, the chemical business, the auto business, or any
other business.
What does Wall Street stand for? It stands for eco
nomic democracy which maintains our political de
mocracy.
Two Systems
U. S. News and World Report has printed a number
Os photographs of Russian scenes, taken by two Ameri
cans who recently spent a month traveling about the So
viet Union.
One shows a middle - aged worker and his wife win
dow-shopping in Stalingrad. They are peering at a mot
ley display of odds - and - ends, including a teakettie. That
teakettle, the caption says, would cost the man il hours’
wages. Another shows a young laborer. A tailored suit,
this caption says, would cost him three weeks’ wages.
These statements are in line with many authorita
tive surveys showing what a Russian must pay for clothes
and food and other goods as compared with what an
American must pay. In every case, measured by the au
thoritative barometer of working time needed to earn the
money, cost to the average Russian is many times the
cost to the average American.
In Russia all the means of production and distribu
tion which means agriculture, manufacturing and re
tailing are either owned by the state or rigidly con
trolled by the state. The state fixes the prices and, save
for a few subsistence items, fixes them at very high lev
els in order to siphon off consumer purchasing power.
In the United States the means of production and dis
tribution are privately owned. Under the system we know
as free enterprise, competition is wide open and intense
as everyone who patronizes retailers can testify from per
sonal experience. And prices for practically everything
sold at retail are well within the means of the average
family. .

FBI Fights to Keep Its
Confidential Informants
! BY DOUGLAS LARSEN
| kea Staff Correspondent l ** i *
YT7ASHINGTON—(NEA) —J. Edgar Hoover is waging a titter
. " and sometimes discouraging fight with the Communist party .
•In the U.S. over the use of confidential informants. t j
t These agents undoubtedly frustrated countless espionage picks
against the U.S. They revealed to the public in dramatic form -just
itiow conspiratorial and sinister the Red plot against Uncie Sum
V js
I But the trouble today is that the American public has a short
’memory. And the Communists, with their long memories, are clever.
I Hoover says of the situation: .
I “Those now furthering the campaign of vituperation against
?ft>itnes&s say that the Communist menace is a myth created o.v
[those who testified against it. Therefore, to destroy the myth, tr.ey
fyeel it is necessary to destroy the witnesses. They refuse to recom
pile the Communist enslavement of one-third of the world's people
and one-fourth of the world's surface.”
* TWO YEARS AGO this reporter toured the U.S., writing what
had happened to some of these undercover agents their roles
had been revealed by testimony in court. m
The group of those Witnesses interviewed include^ Herb Phi,-
! brick. Mary Markward, Angola Calcmiris, Lloyd Hanum, Bereniece
! Baldwin and others.
! Os this list only Herb Philbrick, with his book and TV scries,
j can probably claim a net profit for his undercover work for the
, And this was in spite of bitter efforts by the Reds to wreck
him financially, destroy his marriage and harrassments which are
Still continuing. __
The others had not had a net pain financially from their irsi
i work and were being heckled by everything from dead rats hurled
ion their porches to threatening phone calls in the night.
; THE Ffel REPORTS that this kind of retaliation is continuing
■tahd that vicious campaigns of character assassinations have been
directed against theih in their home towns and neighborhoods.
The obvfouS motives of the Reds is to destroy the credibility
Os those persons as future witnesses and to make them unwilling
to face appearances in court Hoover reveals:
“The Communists, bent on weakening our American way of lifo.
have now turned to Cnlist other individuals and groups to convey
propaganda designed to discredit truth. It,is thrbugh the ‘pseudo
j liberals' that the Communists do some of their most destructive
work. These fictitious liberals are the individuals who through
i insidiously slanted end sly propagandists writings conduct a one
i sided campaign to discredit government witnesses.”
so He adds:
r “Recently there has been a determined campaign designed to
kHeprive law enforcement of the use of the time-tested and valued
confidential Informant. This campaign of vituperation is part and
pored of Communist strategy to convert the courtroom into a
forum to discredit the judicial process.”
! 1 80WE ofr THESE UNDERCOVER AGENTS have gone sour on
the FBI, The most TKftorious is Harvey Matusow. He helped send
several Commies to jail with his testimony, then claimed that it

for my sleeping tablets but could

there.

May I make a suggestion? I
don't think anyone should take
such a final step a* divorce when
she is moved by anger and hurt
pride.
Oh sooner or later you might
ccme to the same conclusion but at
least you'd have reached it coolly.
Right now you're completely (a.id
