These decorations that will show the community off to a visiting public have been created througt business interests of the commun- ity. They have a p;'ide in their town and by creating a scene of wintry beauty are putting the best foot forward in creating a fav- vrable impression o Sh",vn for olltsRlers.

ENATOR Harry Cain with sin- cerc and entlmsiastic desire to do something to improve the Eu- rol)can situation and l.o bring wise c, ounsel and guidance to legisla- tors who will create whatever of a Marshall plan is decided upon, has recently returned from Eu- rope. I feel that Washington's jumor s e n a t o r conscientiously sought informahon that would as- sist tim in beinta a part of United States aid to Europe that would eventually lead to a cure for all of their calamitous ills. I assume tllat the senator was thorough in his investigation and that he ob- served much and talked largely with people of the countries cov- ered, The result of his Inontl of Europea} fact finding, still leaves him up in the air and he wonders just what will be tle result of the Marshall plan sueee,;s for all in the world or eventual bankruptcy for even tlose of tle United States. I ]IART of his report to the people JV of the State of VVashington re- flects the uncertaintly of his thinking about help for Europe, for it is his belief that the plan Is doomed to failure unless there] is a rnoral reformation of the peo-] pie there and unless they have a  will thenlsves to live again in freedom. 'part of tile report should giv(.' each and everyone of us a cause of serious conjecture over tile future, not only for OHV present iml)asse witl Russia but i'or tlle future welfare of every American. Senator Cain says: "People constantly ask me if I thint the Marshall, Plan will work! They seem to think that it is some secret weapon, that it is some legislative cur-all, that now we don't have anythbg to worry about, because the Marshall Phlrt will take care of everything, Hetrv- en forbid that this thougltlesS coneeot of ollr future i8 ever sllar, ed by a majority of our Citizens, ;(., MarshaJl Plan is a calculated risk which i hased on some ut- terly uncertain factors, This plan had better succeed or it can re- stilt in agony and bankruptcy and failure for us in America, Its de- velopment and progress had bet. ter be keenly watched by every American citizen who has any re- ,poet w'hatsoevcr for the future, and any umbith.)n for his children U .(¢) the 7th generation.

'/'his rea3on alone wouldlft justify our zSsking economic dis- aster at home. No one should for- get that this is a concrete Mav- nlaatt Plan possibility.

If we were look- ing for a dollar return from an investment we should be less than wise to think of Western Europe, for example, as being a good risk. I hope that no American thinks wc are going to make any money out of tie? Marshall Plan. That it is going • to be cash out of pocket for the most part appears at this time to be an obvious fact. "America shall, I think, justify the Marshall Plan for political reasons. If our resources can re- build other nations, make them strong and healthy and resource- ful, those nther nations will main- tain their far flung territorial out posts cud frontiers, and they will remain as free people within them- selves. If these nations collapse pol- itically and economically we as a nation will be confronted with the necessity for taking over foreiga commitments we are not prepared to assurue. "America ]s big and powerful and we can bend a long ways be- -fore we break. We stand a fair clmnce ofdoing the mapossiblc. I think the objective we seek, the re- establishment of economic and )olitical stability among the free nations of the world, justifies ore" making a considerable national sacrifice. But the Marshall Plan is a two way street. No effort on this side of the water, even though we dtd ten times what we are likely to do, will achieve our ob- jective unless those nations whom we seek to assist are willing to individually and collectively acc'om- plish far more than they have in mind today. Unless tlmy recognize that they are actually fighting for the survival of a free world there Is no reasonable point in our giv- ing them a single penny. Eyery dollar invesl.ed would be wasted."
