WIT Hard To I nilnstand While we are buying our way into the minds of people across the sea, we overlook the fact that we have a bill of goods the characteristics of which are difficult to grasp and understand. If the Balkan people do not take to our ways and customs overnight, we must re member that we accept some of our own antics without serious thought or reason ing. We think nothing of it, but it must be puzzling to the hungry fellow in Bulgaria or some other Balkan country when, Ameri ca continues to buy gold to add to its bulg ing stock. They dig it up in South Africa; we pay about $.Tr> an ounce for it, and then bring it to this country and bury it The Balkan native wonders why the gold isn't left in the ground in the first place? And when Bevins comes along and suggests that the gold be used to help save the world situ ation we laugh at him and our Balkan friend becomes more puzzled. A large reduction in peanut acreage is demandatorv for this section next year. We are going to decrease the plantings of the f > id crop when millions are starving. There is little wonder that the Balkan peoples when they are appraised of such antics are g--—-—_._ *mmimt — — — — — — — - inclined to shop arounn for other systems. It is hard for him to understand how in a land of plenty we rise, boom and bust. imrrica's Iron Curtain Wc have heard about Russia’s iron cur tain, and now a young fellow named Paul Tullier, writing in Coder's, tells a few tilings about an American “iron curtain" in Korea. Tullier says, among other things: 1. The United States has created an iron curtain of its own in Korea. 2. The facts about tin situation are being kept from the American people. T Russian arrests of American soldiers are almost daily occurrences. In turn, Ameri cans beat up Russians almost every day. 4 Koreans hate the United States. . . i...Ci’ftcw .tw'jj.s If! and 19 ypor oldaiilww'.** .*.»»#••*-.*•> . __ noi been indoctrinated how to deal with Ko reans. They are treating Korea as a con quered country instead of a liberated one. (i. Civilian employes of the military gov ernment are “incredibly incapable.” 7. Black markets flourish on street corn ers. Russian sins art1 described by Tullier as being even worse than ours. Tt is quite evi dent that by multiplying our own sins we’ll not be able to correct those of others. May be, we could get somewhere by practicing the same kind of democracy we preach. Narrowed Driwii To Name dolling Even though we are pumping billions of dollars to nearly every rat hole on the face of the globe in the name of peace, our work for peace lias been reduced down to the low-, ly business of name calling. Congressman Dorn of South Carolina, ad dressing the North Carolina Young Demo crats in Raleigh recently, said the warmong er charge hurled at him by Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Vishinskv, in an address be fore the second meeting of the United Na tions Assembly, was false. All the talk about bringing peace to the world was a bit premature, and although he denies the war mongoring charge, it is diffi cult for Representative Dorn to explain away the following words spoken by him last May 7, “The Soviet Union cannot be halted by $400,000,000 (part of the gift made to Greece), but by a big air force and bomb ing potential industrial centers of the Soviet Union, Ural Mountains industrial area, and »ther vital places.” It would seem tha1 the representative is on shaky ground, that instead of working for peace we are talking for division of East and West and ultimately for war.
