done much during the past year to

County Forest Festival attests,

HE business section of Stmlton
is now being dressed in raim-
ent of a natural product that
means so much to us and our wel-
fare.--the green of the woods.
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. Their open .ouse eve:t
of tomorrow night has .mn ar-
ranged at big expense and ex-
haustive effort and they invite, all
of the community and adjacent
arc to come and see what Santa
Chtus has for Shelton shoppers.
Stores will be open until 8 o'clock
in the evening and the public is
generally invited to attend.
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]

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

Sneak Preview
Shown in Shelton
M'r. and Mrs. Gun Graf of the
Paramount Theatre played host to
some 40 guesL last Saturday for
a sneak preview showing of "The
Swordsman" starring Larry Parks
and Ellen Drew.
"The Swordsman" is the story of
a rued between two Scottish
filmed brillia,tly in technicolor.
.The costumes ana scenery are
magnificent while the ac'g and
action shots were superb.

have little right to expect any in-
terest or dividend return. As a
financial investment it constitutes
a bad invemnent. 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."
