Mount Pleasant News (Newspaper) - April 15, 1958, Mount Pleasant, Iowa The it. Pleasant news lock or Call by Holder Box Holder Fri local one to each family balk Bate c. 8. Postage paid it pleasant Iowa permit no. Id these Days by George e. Sokol sky the voice of experience senator Allen j. Ellender cd Louisiana often reminds one of an american army Olf Leer from the Philippines who was about to retire and was seeking something to do. On his second Day in Shanghai China and he had not yet seen any of China where there were no English speaking foreigners he said that he had found the solution for All of China s problems the problems were then calling for solution As they had for several centuries rile colonel s solution was for the chinese to drop the chinese language and to accept in Alish in its Stead. Then he said they would be like us and everything would ta1 perfect. Senator Ellender regards himself As an expert on Poland. He had been there a Over a i do not know whether senator Ellender Speaks polish but i do know that comparatively few poles speak English. Senator Ellender a Power of observation must be enormous if in Quot Over a week a he can discover the soul of one of the most Complex Peoples of Europe slavic in origin latin in civilization. This is what senator Ellender said Quot for example i have just returned from Poland. I visited the country Lur Over a week i went All Over the country. There is no question but that the government of Poland is communistic. There is no doubt about it however i venture to say that the people there Are against the following colloquy is most interesting Quot or. Aiken did not the senator notice that according to articles in the newspapers the other Day Poland is giving a substantial fat or fion of state owned land to the people a emr. Ellender. That is because we Are making Progress in our Effort to wean Poland and Oiler Iron curtain countries away from on this subject. I should like to quote Wladyslaw Gomulka head of the polish government speaking on november 28. 1957, shortly before these senators debated As above a the idea of the inevitable fall of the capitalist system whose place will be taken by the socialist system already was expressed and scientifically established by the founders of the theory of scientific socialism Marx and Engels in the i nth Century. They discovered the Laws of the development of society. This enabled them to foresee the fall of capitalism at a time when capitalism was Only entering the stage of its full development and when As a social system it was playing a progressive then i want to quote Lurther from this speech Quot the great october socialist revolution in Russia which met with a wide response and the support of the International workers movement opened a new Era in the history of the world the Era of socialism. This first great breach in the worlds system in which the capitalist and landowner class oct pled a dominating position contributed to the speeding up of the development of the workers movement in All countries to the spread j of the ideas of socialism among the working masses of the whole and finally. Today there is no longer any doubt that socialism is Superior to capitalism for this has been proven in practice in the most convincing held that of science and engineering. The launching by the soviet Union of artificial Earth satellites has dispersed All the myths of the superiority of capitalism. I would suggest if it is not too much to ask. That senators Aiken and Ellender get this speech of of Mulkay a from the Library of Congress. That might discover that thi Aid we gave to Poland was intended to produce none of the re i suits they stated. Gomulka said Quot the polish people have much evidence based on our of n example that certain capitalist circles Are trying to exploit economic relations with the socialist countries. Particularly through the granting of credits with a View to loosening the Unity of the socialist states the . Government by recently granting credit to Poland in the form of goods did not put Forth any conditions which were in any Way aimed at our Independence and our policy. It can be stated that credits granted to us on such conditions Are fully in compliance with the principles of Equality and noninterference in infernal affairs and Are to Loveless gives report on tax probe Des Moines. Ins the governor today issues a report in connection with the recent investigation made by the state tax commission on the status of income tax returns of the state s judges. The report stated that after the initial investigation his commission found the income tax returns of 90 of the 98 ridges to be in order. The report Lent on that eight judges presumably including l. B. Forsling of Sioux City had not filed returns. However after a More intensive investigation was completed the j commission found the governor said. That three of the eight had filed returns but two had gone i astray through Quot faulty ism cards and that the third had Bern in evolved in a mix up on addresses. I the report said that of the re mauling five judges two paid i promptly when advised they had not filed returns for one year each. In another of the five the judge had failed to file Iii two years. 1954 and 1955, but when state auditors made a Check the judge Quot promptly paid the tax including penalty and in another instance the judge j had apparently failed to file a re a turn in 1953. An investigation i showed that the judges attorney had mislaid the return. This Case i was closed when the attorney paid j the tax. Plus penalty and interest. Vol. 80, no. 80 it. Pleasant Iowa.
