On this surrender to things as they seem to be, jrood people (including youngsters) of sturdy integrity in other directions drift into dangerous waters. Yet undertaking1 to change the customs of a people sounds at first as formidable and futile as trying- to reverse re-verse the flow of the Gulf Stream. And it would be a temptation to dismiss it as just that if humanity did not have some contrary evidence to go by. Duelng and slave-holding were once customs too the former intertwined with moral values of honor and courage; the latter as heavily overlaid with economic interests as in the liquor traffic. Yet they have been changed. Thinking men, furthermore, have learned that human customs are not mysterious effects of immutable cosmic laws. Customs are both cause and effect. They are self-perpetating self-perpetating only as long as the majority bend the knee to the tyranny of "they". Thi is a vicious cycle. But it can be broken. In fact, it is broken every time a community or a nation adopts a major reform. And it is severed more effectively by example ex-ample and the witnessing of example than by talk. i i r MOT) ANNIVERSARY STILL COURTING ...

In the midst of these hearings hear-ings the house of representatives, representa-tives, by a two-vote margin, gave the President's foreign program a smashing setback by defeating an appropriation of $;0,000,000 for the south Korean government set np by the United States in opposition to the Soviet northern Korean government. The house likely will reverse itself on this particular par-ticular item before the session Is over. But as all this criticism of the federal budget by opponents of the Truman administration went on, Frank Pace, Jr., a career government govern-ment man and director of the bureau of the budget, made a speech down Iri Raleigh, North Carolina, before the southern Democratic Dem-ocratic conference held there recently. re-cently. Pace gave the people there something some-thing to think about in connection with the federal budget and the criticism which is aimed at the present rate of federal spending. After pointing out that 71 cents out of every dollar in the present budget goes to pay for national defense, international affairs, veterans' vet-erans' benefits and interest on the national debt. Pace said: , "You cannot close down or curtail cur-tail at will the responsibilities and commitments of the greatest nation na-tion in the world. The true measure, therefore, of any single budget is not solely whether or not it shows a surplus, although this is of major importance and a balancei budget is a prudent national na-tional goal toward which we should constantly strive. The budget is more than a statement of income and out.qo in any one year. It is a statement, in financial terms, of national objectives and responsibilities. responsi-bilities. In preparing it, you face considerations and commorients and c' !:; ic is v.iiich run far be , Ti I a t.:i;:e vr.-.r. "For example: A few days ago the President sent to th eongress a request for four and a half million dollars for the department de-partment of agriculture t assist in controlling the rapid spread of spruce budwormg and spruce bark beetles. Would yon Judge the amount of this request by comparing it with the cost of previous administrations? administra-tions? If yon did yon would find that to kill these two small bugs, which I am sure most of you have never heard of, will cost more than the entire federal fed-eral budget during the first two years that George Washington was president. "Or would you judge it in the light of our responsibilities for preserving pre-serving our natural resources and keeping our economy strong in this year of 1950? If you do, you will find that this four and a half million mil-lion dollars which we propose to spend will halt the destruction of 12 billion board feet of timber, valued at close to 100 million dollars. dol-lars. It will save in one section of Colorado alone sawmill and pulp operations valued at $15,000,000 a year and employing 600 wage earners. earn-ers. This is the kind of specific activity ac-tivity which makes up the government govern-ment program to meet the needs of our nation today not 100 years ago." Chances are that the congress will plug up some of the tax loopholes in the present law. It has been learned that the action ac-tion of the 80th congress in lopping off some 7,000 employes em-ployes of the bureau of internal revenue was a costly act and has cost the government some $600,000 in uncollected taxes and in addition has built up a backlog of some 390,000 cases of untried tax frauds. Ob-ervers here declare that the i Bran.-.an long range agricultural 1 program is not dead. As a matter of fact, reports coming in from ' throughout tha nation continue to j lead many to believe here that a ' majority of the nation's farmers would like to see tiie plan tried out. It is predicted in some circles that the Brarmsn plan will come to ! a head wiihin the r.ext few weeks. V Mil Fri.. Sat.
