Given sustained consumer spend-
ing, the economy should find the
increase in business and govern-
ment speeding making up for any
slowdown in home building and
auto sales.
Business hopes for continued
consumer spending are built on
these factors: -
1. Expecttion that the antici-
pated increase in prices of man-
ufactured goods will be too small
to arouse resistance-especially if
food prices hold stable as now
seems likely.
2. Increased personal income
from higher wages, full employ-

American and. Canadian services cooperate closely in _

The struggle to preserve the species from extinc-

its future. The crop of eight youngsters is the largest

Old Tension
Of Cold War
Is Continued
♦
The world's two contesting
groups of nations walked a po-
litical treadmill in . 1955.
The year began with all the
tensions of the last 10 years and
ended the same way. In be-
tween, Russia dropped Georgi
Malenkov as premier and as-
sumed a new look. Two peace
conferences were held at Ge-
neva. When they were over, the
extent of the schism had been
confirmed.
The nations did seem, how-
ever, to be more and more
aware that they must avoid war.
The Russians were stUI willmz
to promote other people’s wars,
and started arming Egypt, who
threatened to attack Israel. The
Western Allies persuaded both
countries that they'd better not
start anything.
Red China stopped at the For-
mosa strait, and threatened war
there simmered down into wait-
ing.

colonialism became more active.

he Illinois Manufacturers Assn. If by any chance he
Wsoing so for political effect, it may backfire on
Ehe administratidn. For many things can happen be-
tween now and next November, anti the Kremlin gang
has dropped its smiling mask and returned to its pol-
cy of toughness.
‘ Dulles called for a bolstering of the nation's alli-
knees and for maintenance of "selective retaliatory
mower" to meet the renewed Soviet challenge. So far.
So good. Certainly a strengthening of the free world's
ties is needed, and it is our power of retaliation that
Us the deterrent to acts of open Soviet aggression.
The secretary of state was on less sure ground
Awhen he said that the Russians have picked the
Aworld’s underdeveloped areas "as targets for their
gujle" because they have been thwarted in their
drift to expand by force.
the Soviet leaders in fact are making a big play for
influence in backward areas, principally with prom-
keg of aid, but one should keep his fingers crossed
whan saying that this is because they have been balk- "
ed'in so far as open aggression is concerned. Right
now the Chinese Reds apparently are preparing to re-
new the war in the Formosa Strait. And there is no
assurance that renewed aggressive moves will not be
made in Indo-China.
Dulles expressed confidence that Astatic leaders
wil not be “easily duped by false promises." The an-
swar to that, based on recent history, is that they will
be — unless our statesmanship and propaganda im-
proves. The Muscovites have only to denounce "West-
erf imperialism," which in fact has almost disap-
peared, to send some free Asiatic leaders into a frenzy
of friendship for the Soviets that disregards entirely -
th vastly worse Soviet brand of imperialism. c
The secretary of state calls for a continuation of
foreign aid at about its present level. Americana
would like to see more evidence of results before
acquiescing in an extended program at a time when
our national budget is unbalanced.
Finally, Dulles calls for a rebirth of America’s 19th
Century "crusading spirit" Splendid. But we also
• need a rebirth of this nation's historic uncompromis-
ing spirit of standing on principle in dealing with for-
ein nations, friends and enemies alike.
