The United States Government is trying to rival the Ford Foundation in philanthropy. It is proposed that we more or less double our give-away program lest, to quote Mr. Chester Bowles, it be said that in the middle of the twentieth century freedom died of a balanced budget. We continue to rely on the stomach theory of Communism. Foreign aid is Bipartisanship’s substitute for a foreign policy.
In Stevens County, Washington, hard by the government’s Grand Coulee Dam, the voters recently decided by a majority of more than seven to three to sell their twenty-year-old public utility plant to a private company. It is perhaps the absence of progressive education that led to this atavistic relapse into ancient superstitions about freedom and enterprise.
