Mount Pleasant News (Newspaper) - June 13, 1958, Mount Pleasant, Iowa The it. Pleasant news partly Cloudy these Days ivol 80-no-139 Ait. Pleasant Iowa Friday evening Jill in. Is by George e. Sokolsky the by hts Eaton phenomenon the Assumption that because a Man is a capitalist he must be anti communist or anti russian is untenable gyrus Eaton is an american capitalist he has made and makes his Money by investments in enterprises in tile United states Canada and elsewhere he has become a protagonist of More Friendly soviet american relations. Naturally that is his privilege but he too often associates his pro soviet attitudes with intemperate statements on subjects concerning which he cannot be Well informed. Eaton has said Quot the Way to combat communism is not by Witch Hunting and wiretapping these police state methods May gain momentary notoriety for the office seeking politicians who advocate and employ them but they offer no solution for our Long term economic to which the following questions May be asked 1. What is the Quot solution for our Long term economic problems 2. Whose wires have been tapped and by whom 3. What politicians employ wiretapping and for what purpose concerning the solution it would be interesting to hear Eaton out. He May have a philosophy and he May not. The fact that a Man knows How to manipulate Money is not sure proof that he does or does not know anything else. I have for years read Eaton s statements on various subjects and thus far have not discovered that he is either an Adam Smith or a Karl Marx but there is no knowing he May have a solution up his sleeve. Too Eaton wrote in Quot the progressive Quot Quot our or. Dulles sometimes talks list As the Kaiser did in 1914 and when one becomes swollen with Pride one becomes arrogant and truculent and someone will take up the then he added Quot i feel confident Russia is not now trying to sell the United states on now just As a matter of Accuu by Carrier 30# per week by mall >7.30 per year a a a Jtj i air Bill tit j is urged new heavy rn7 Rains hit Indiana Washington up president j Eisenhower demanded urgent con guess Iorii action today to create in All powerful air traffic cop Agency to control civilian and military flights and Stop collisions in i the nation s congested airways.

Alcorn reminded the Gap workers that much is a at stake Quot in the 1958 congressional elections and said that Quot every Republican Vic arly i wish Eaton would draw up tory in 1958 would Quot make our task parallel Columna showing the that much less difficult in 1960. Similarity of the Kaiser and Dulles. After praising present Iowa re that is the talk of the Kaiser in publicans in Congress he forecast 1914 and of Dulles in 1958 or any other year Eaton might choose. It might also be interesting to compare Eaton a statement con a Victory for the Iowa gop in the fall elections. But the heart of the address was aimed at the farm policy. He Point sell the United states on communism with Khrushchev s interview on the Columbia broadcast Corning soviet Russia s efforts to1 dec out that the republicans have sought Quot thus far without Success a to get the democratically controlled Congress a to relax the harsh proms systems television show induction controls imposed upon Farmers who wish to join government prices support programs. He pointed to the 1956 referendum when "60 per cent of the Iowa Farmers participating voted for which Khrushchev assured All americans that their grandchildren would live under socialism meaning his particular Brand which is called communism. Either Khrushchev did not know what Freedom from controls and acreage he meant to say or Eaton did not i allotments. Understand what Khrushchev said. J rf1 this made it Quot very Clear also Eaton might read Thrush or that iowans want no part Chev s speech to the bulgarian j of the current Quot quack remedies Community which deals with this democrats Are trying a to subject. Whereas it was possible for Khrushchev to do this Columbia broadcasting Job of propaganda within the United states it is still impossible for any american to speak to the russian people. Khrushchev might of course justify Eaton a optimism by permitting the speech that Herbert Hoover he alluded to figures which showed that Iowa Farmers rash re Cepitis were "16 per cent higher Quot in a s.

He said Quot food peace and Freedom Are closely bound Toge bet and the world has never had enough of Alcorn said the administration has attempted to Aid the Farmer by expanding the use of american agricultural products abroad.

Without jury tile Bullet in the head and so on but we always attributed that kind of stuff to the Gestapo and the Moo however we must remember that Eaton was talking about his own special w orld and that world bears no relation to too of course the Fri does not operate that Way and Eaton must know it.
