Show 1 Page 8 The UTAH INDEPENDENT The Paper That Dares To Take A Stand April 19, 1973 Senator Helms Urges Continued Isolation Of Cuba Salter Says By Bob Salter "YOU'RE A PROPHET OF DOOM!" How many time have 1 heard that in the last three years? My previous employer never let me forget it. Some of my listeners repeat it today. Does telling the truth make it so? Does common ordinary reasoning make it so? Which is the greater sin, telling the truth when the news is bad, or pretending it's not happening and lulling the people to sleep in order to be more popular? Women are boycotting meat and truly believe they are doing some good. Well, let's suppose they force the markets Whats to to reduce meat prices from raising prevent the grocer other prices, theyre going up anyway and a few cents more wont he noticed. The fact of the matter is that they are treating a symptom, not the disease! Meat is not going up in price, the dollar is losing buying power. If it was just meat, we could cure that, but prices are going up on every thing. Its the dollar that is in trouble, not meat! Every dollar we spend over and above our income reduces the amount a dollar can purchase just that much more that plus the devaluations both past and future will spell ruin for us. Oh yes. more devaluations are on the way. Which means prices will continue to rise. For two centuries the citizens of the U.S.A. have been free agents, have been blessed with abundance. I don't suppose they ever gave a thought to an end to it. But. now they are faced with shortages, high prices and yes, even the possibility of having to stop driving their car. We used to be a nation that could survive alone, but no longer. We import nearly 40 of our needs in all. The list of goods we must import fills two volumes of the U.S. Code, according to the Pacific Coast Coin Exchange Newsletter. Unless you have the money, a few of these items you will learn to do without will be gasoline, soap, cosmetics, perfume, If the President cheese. andor dont Congress cut government spending; then it will be our spending, yours and mine, that will be cut by taxes, by inflation, and by devaluations. rice, chocolate, pineapples, tuna, sardines, leather, paper, plywood, cotton, wool, silk, shoes, gloves, luggage, cars, bicycles, playing cards, jewelry, cameras, pianos, watches, radios, T.V.s and yes, even meat. Our leaders for the last forty years could have done no more to ruin us had they tried. And I for one. believe they have tried. This country has taken a lot of killing and unless someone produces a miracle soon, it will be too late. We are now a second rate nation in many ways and to make matters worse, we are a bankrupt second rate nation. Yes, Im a Prophet of doom, but am now in some pretty good for instance, read company what the experts say. Pacific Coast 1 Coin Certain Exchange: by Jesse Helms, U.S. Senator (R-N.- C.) U.S. Senator WASHINGTON Jesse Helms today urged continued adherence to the present policy of diplomatic and economic isolation .of Communist Cuba. In a statement presented to the Senate, Sen. Helms said there is no change in the Cuban situation. The reasons for isolating Cuba are valid now as when they were applied," the Senator said. If we have any decency at all, any sympathy for an oppressed people, we will take no steps whatsoever to stabilize the Castro either or regime politically economically, he said. It is of the utmost importance when the Organization of American States meets here next week that the United States make it clear that our continued adherence to our present policy does not depend on whether or not the OAS resolution for the isolation is reaffirmed," he added. He said there may be moves made a the OAS to rescind the resolution, but if such a move should be successful, the United States should not seize upon that action as an excuse for resuming diplomatic relations or other types of active liaison." He referred to a recent order by the government calling for the deportation of two Cuban refugees as appalling. The State Department says that it is in the spirit of the antihijacking agreement to deport these refugees, even though the agreement itself does not literally apply, Sen. Hels said. If this is indeed in the spirit of this agreement, then America has lost its honor and lost its soul, he added. The Senator emphasized there depression and possible inflation loom in the background of the recurrent monetary crisis. warns: investor International Either we adopt an austerity program involving a reduced standard of living for an extended period of time or we go through a process of bankruptcies.

Yes. ladies, to boycott meat is like taking an aspirin for cancer. If you dont quit treating symptoms and start treating the disease soon you may never recognize your country again.
