British Foreign Policy Line
Seems Dream World Fantasy
For years it was fashionable to say that
America had no foreign policy. You don’t
hear that so much any more, though plenty
of people declare they don’t like the one
we have.
Today it would be more accurate so
say that Great Britain, once the prime in-
fluence for peace and order in the world,
hair no foreign policy. And this makes
for a rather sad state of affairs.
How British foreign affairs are floun-
dering can be sei?n from the reaction in
Britain to Red China’s rejection of the fi-
nal UN cease-fire plan for Korea. The
British- foreign office voiced “keen disap-
pointment” at the Communists’ rude re-
buff to the UN.
Our own government had no illusions
that the Reds would approve the plan.
They have been studying the workings of
the Communist mind carefully, and mak-
ing use of their lessons. Apparently the
British are living in a world of wishful
thoughts, and^>Aund foreign policy is not
compounded of these.
° Once this most conciliatory cease-fire,
proposal was turned down, the British
could think of no proper alternative. AM
they "could advise was; a further “go slow”
to the UN.
The UN has done nothing positive
about Red Chipa’s Korean aggression for
three months. In that span, the Reds have
turned down half a dozen formal sugges-
tions that they suspend the fighting and
talk pence. This hardly seems like reck-
less haste on the UN’s part. Perhaps all
the clocks in Britain have stopped.
The fact is plain that the British don’t
like the realities of 1951 and won’t face
them. It’s more comforting to retreat into
a dream world, where one can dwell on
former glories.
In such a fantasy, America can be pic-
tured as rash, hasty, naive and unrealistic
when it asks that the UN laBel the Com-
munist Chinese as the aggressqrs they are.
You get the idea from reading British
comment that in this demand the U. S. is
somehow trying to foist its arrogant will
on Britain and other free countries,..
Is if so unreasonable that the UN, a
peace agency, be called upon to condemn
aggression? The UN had no hesitancy in
doing, so when the North Koreans were
the culprits. Why should the Red Chinese
bear a charmed life? .........
If British attitude has come, around to
the place where an America standing for
the principle that aggression must be con-
demned as an America being willful and
incautious, then Britdns had better get out
their largest mirrors and take a good, long
look. ■
Nor may the British,' at this painful
juncture in this history, fall, back on the
theory that pinning an “aggressor” label
on the Chinese automatically means a big-
ger Far Eastern war.. Anyone who can
read the Communist record knows that
declarations of that sort are excuses for
action only when the Reds want them to
be.

Letter From Washington by jade e*ds, *. staff writer
Washington.—The nation’s housewives are be-
ing asked to make greater use of the produce of
the country’s largest group of agricultural work-
ers-—some 250 billion busy bees.
The honey bees, or “white man’s flies”, as they
were called when first brought into this country
from -Europe, are considered essential to the polli-
nation of some 50 crops by the U. S. Department
of Agriculture. They are more important in re-
cent years, since the ground-nesting or solitary bee
has been killed -out by spray poisoning and clean
cultivation of shrubbery where they used to
thrive. - ' — ---------
But there’* that honey the honey bee whips up
in addition to the pollination job. Last year,
Harold J. Clay, principal marketing .specialist for
the U. S. Department of Agriculture, says some
234,000,000 pounds of honey were produced in
this country by approximately 5,400,000 colonies
of bees during the busy season.
The department, under its diversion assistance
program, has been trying to help build up com-
pletely new outlets and. uses for honey. There’s
a new honey baby food, for instance, the applica-
tion for which has already been approved. It’s in
the form of a fortified cracker. There’s a new
honey ice cream, chocolate *yrup, and all kinds of
different-flavored spreads, r t
A program alto is under way in the Kansas
State Experimental Station to develop new uses
for honey in the bnking industry. This is partial-
ly financed by the department of Agriculture and
the industry. "
. "It’s a two-year project, but we hope that when
it’s completed a large number of outlets will fee
developed," Mr. Clay told me.
Under its price support program, the depart-
ment since mid-September also has taken over
about six and a half million pounds of honey, for
use mostly in the school lunch program. Through
its honey .export program, the department has as-
sisted exporters to move 11,000,000 pounds to
about-* dozen- approved-foreign countries.
“In view of the surplus, we are going slow in
recommending an increase in new colonies," said
Mr. Clay, "but about two billion bouncing baby
bees will be shipped to the nation's 500,000 bee-
keepers next March.” These bees, he says, are
produced in Alabama, Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi
and other southern and central states and ip south-
ern California.

Youngstown Educates
For Freedom
Recently it was m.v good fortune
to see at first hand the results
that may be achieved by an en-
lightened educational program in
which parents, «ducator» wnd -bus-
iness men join in transmitting to
school youngsters a deep apprecia-
tion of America’s economic, social
and political freedoms. Upon the
invitation of the superintendent
of schools of Youngstown Ohio,
and the Economic and Business
Foundation, I spent three dayB is
the Youngstown district of the
Mahoning-Shenango Valley speak-
ing to assemblies of high school
students and their teachers. My
combined audience was 12,850.
One of the strongest barriers
that could be erected against the
growth of Socialism in the years
ahead would be a generation of
young citizens who had been well
educated in tjie true values of-the
American provate enterprise sys-
tem. The longer we are obliged
to have government controls and
citizen regimentation in this state-
of-war emergency, the more im-
portant it is that our school young-
sters, as well as their parents, be
imbued with-unshakable faith in
our institutions of freedom. -

NBA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON—(NEA)-Some kind of a monument snouiu p™»-
” ably be erected to Dr. Alan Valentine, who ha* just been eased
out of his job as head of Economic Stabilization Agency. In the iour^
months of his short career fts a bureaucrat, he issued only one order.
And it was only temporary. This was the price freeze on automobiles,
which probably won’t stick. . , .
This Is the perfect government official that business has long been
seeking—the one who does nothing which adds to the complexities of
the free enterprise system.
Eric Johnston, erstwhile moving picture industry czar who takes
over the ESA job vacated by Dr. Valentine, may be expected to do
something more about It. He has been holding some semi-secret
pow-wows with business and labor leaders during the last few weeks,
in Washington and New York, and is supposed to have some plans
already worked out.
Why Eric Johnston wants this thankless job of trying to sttfeUize re-
prices and wages is anybody's guess.- He has of course always had
a high dagree-of xivic-ftilndedness, and he has also been suspected of
having political ambitions which never somehow seemed to Jell. This
may be his big chance.
CTILL further in his subconscious mind, however, he has always had
*7 an interest in trying to promote good labor-management relations
and bring industrial peace to a strike-ridden country. There was a
lot of this stuff in the two books he has written. And certainly, if
today’s price-wage stabilization problems are anything, they are prob-
lems in keeping industrial peace. . .... _ .
Memory goes back to 1945 when, with the war about to end, Er*«
Johnston tried to promote a postwar labor relations formula th^K
would bring industrial peace. Mr. Johnston was then president of the
U. S. Chamber of Commerce.
In August of that year Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg of Michigan
suggested a government-management-labor conference ^to work to-
wards industrial peace in the postwar world,
took up the idea, and the conference opened j
much publicity and about 100 delegates, all big shots,
had a big hand in getting the parley organized. -
It accomplished absolutely nothing, and was able to agree only on a
statement that arbitration was a good thing, sometimes.
TT is to be devoutly hoped, of course, that Eric Johnston wilrfhave
1 better luck in this third big try as boss of price and wage stabiliza-
tion for the defense period. His bosses—President Truman and
Mobilization Director C. E Wilson—are on record within the past
week that the cost of living must be held down, prices must be rolled
back, inflation must be curbed, and controls are necessary.
The suspicion has been growing in Washington that the lack of
performance on prices and wages has been due to a desire to handle
the controls in such a way that nobody would be hurt. No price was
to be froze# if it was unfair to any individual seller. Nothing was to
be done until adequate staffs were assembled to handle all complaiqjt
and relieve all inequities. ™
This was why C. E. Wilson upheld Dr. Valentine in cancelling Price
Stabilizer Michael V. DiSalle’s first price freeze order. This was also,
indirectly, the cause for Dr. Valentine’s downfall. He didn’t do any-
thing and wouldn’t let anyone else do it
This should be the great object lesson for Eric Johnsb
moral is that you can’t throw water on the fires of inflation'
somebody getting wet. And it’s time somebody turned on the
