SAPPING THE NATION
Senator Jenner of Indiana has said this:
“Before we can solve the great problem of foreign
policy in this dangerous and disorganized world, Con
gress must give back to private industry, to private
reform and private education, and to local government
every activity which can be surrendered by the federal
government. We must adopt as our first principle the
total dismantling of that colossus on the Potomac, the
Welfare State. . .
We pay—and pay through the nose—for super
government in many kinds of coin. The most obvious
one is money, as represented by our vast burden of
public debt and crushing taxes. But we pay too in
lost liberties, in diminished independence, and in an
insidious undermining of our moral fiber and respon
sibility as a people. And as Senator Jenner intimated,
when government is concerned with every phase of
our domestic life, energy and resources are diverted
from matters, such as foreign and military policy,
which are its proper province.
The welfare state saps the nation like a leech.
Any financial expert can tell somebody else how
to budget his money.

Britain Joins U.S.
Pledging Atomic
Material for Peace
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., (At—
Britain joined the United States
Tuesday in earmarking a quantity
of atomic material for use under
President Eisenhower’s atoms
for-peace program to build exper
imental reactors in other coun
tries.
British Minister of State An
thony Nutting told the General
Assembly’s 60 - nation political
committee that Britain had al
located 20 kilograms (44 pounds)
of fissionable material to be
added to the 220 pounds set aside
by the United States yesterday.
The announcement came as U. N.
delegates hailed the U.S. move as
the biggest step forward since
President Eisenhower first con
ceived his plan to use atomic
energy for peaceful purposes*
Meanwhile, Russia and the
Western delegates continued pri
vate talks on a series of Soviet
amendments to a seven - power
resolution outlining plans for an
international agency which will
handle the distribution of the fis
sionable materials.
Informed quarters indicated the
Western countries had turned
down the main Soviet amendment
—to place the agency under the
Security Council, where Russia
has the veto.
Air Force Team To
“Probe All Aspects” Of
RB-29 Downed By 'Reds
TOKYO, IA’i—A team of U.S. Air
Force officers left for northern
Japan Tuesday to probe “all as
pects” of the crash of an Ameri
can RB-29 shot down by Russian
fighters Nov. 7, the Air Force said.
The mission was announced
amid Japanese press reports:
1. That the U.S. is investigating
whether the Soviet-built Migs
which shot up and set afire the
big photo plane near the eastern
tip of Hokkaido Island were vio
lating Japanese territorial waters;
2. That Air Force sentries
guarding the crash scene have
fired “at least 50” warning shots
at approaching Japanese and
beaten a village mayor.
The influential newspaper As
ahi quoted the mayor as claiming
he was assaulted and his film con
fiscated when he shot pictures of
a Japanese house which burned
when the big plane crashed into
it in flames. The mayor said he
was taking the pictures as evi
dence for a damage claim.
The plane was unmanned when
it crashed.

Newsmen Barred From
Private Deer Hunt By
Godfrey and GM President
GAYLORD, Mich., UPl — News
men were barred today from a
privately-owned hunting reserve
where radio-television personality
Arthur Godfrey, and General
Motors president Harlow Curtis
hunted deer.
Reporters, who approached the
gateway to the 5,000-acre ranch of
GM vice president Harold Boyer,
were told by a caretaker he had
orders not to let newspapermen
or anyone else in.
The caretaker, Robert Ryan,
said “they objected to stories car
ried last year that Godfrey hunted
deer from a jeep.”
Godfrey, still suffering from ef
fects of a hip operation, used a
jeep last year to get from the
hunting lodge to his deer blind.
