THE PRESIDENT, as the
chief executive, is chiefly re
sponsible for the formulation of
the foreign policies of the United
States.
This power, which is wide in
scope and vastly important, is
vested in him by the Constitu-
tion. Whatever
the Congress
does in the
area of foreign
relations is al
ways greatly
conditioned by
whatever di
rection the
President has
given to our foreign policy af
fairs.
Also, it is not the duty of the
Congress to see that foreign
policy is carried out. This is the
responsibility of the Depart
ment of State and the Secretary
of State, who is the President's
chief advisor in our relations
with foreign powers.
.i♦ * *
AT A TIME when it seems
that our foreign policy in many
areas of the wo]ld leaves much
to be desired, the American peo
ple have justifiably become con
cerned.
They want to see the United
States stand firm and insist on
its own rights whenever and
wherever they are challenged
by Communist aggression. While
realizing that there are no pat
answers to problems of interna-/

? tional relations and that such
- matters must be handled with
f great care, they are tired of
I having to bear repeated setbacks
I around the world.
i Much of this concern of late
i । has been generated by the arro
• gance of Castro’s Cuba, Nkru
mah’s Ghana, Panama and other
such troublesome situations such
as that now existing in Viet
j Nam.
* * *
I SHARE this concern and
have long believed that it is a
, mistake not to formulate Amer-
J ican foreign policy on the basis
I of enlightened self-interest and
self-preservation, and not on
what kind of image we may be
■ making.
i In this Cold War, we are in a
i race for survival, and not en
gaged in a popularity contest.
If we are to continue as the
; leader of the free world, we
must pursue a foreign policy in
keeping with this position.
In my judgment, we must take
whatever action is necessary to
prevent the take-over of one
nation after another by the evil
forces of Communism. Sooner
or later, we are going to have
to stop turning the other cheek.
The sooner our policy-makers
realize this, the better off all of
us and the rest of the free world
will be.

LEGISLATION’ THAT WILL
CREATE POLICE STATE
BY T. COLEMAN ANDREWS
FORMER INTERNAL REVENUE COMMISSIONER
The most insidious piece of legislation in the history of our country in now being railroaded
through Congress. Its passage would destroy our rights to govern our own lives.
If you have been led to believe the Civil Rights bill was designed to give “justice” to minority
groups, you have been sold a bill of goods.
Few Americans, especially businessmen, realize that this vicious measure would convert this
nation into a police state under the direction and control of a powerful central government.
Its effects would adversely affect everyone, black and white alike.
The bill has been hailed in glowing terms by the President and has been passed in the House.
It is now before the Senate. By its action on this bill the Senate will determine the fate of U..
Constitution and the freedom it guarantees.
Its evils are not concentrated in, nor are they confined to, the much discussed and highly
publicized “public accomodations” section, vicious though that section is. It becomes more and
more evident that “Public Accommodations” is a red herring that has been used to divert public
attention from the basic evil that runs through all of it like a fine electrical control wire, ready to
be charged whenever the attorney general chooses to throw the switch.
Like all such schemes, this Socialist Omnibus Bill -- misnamed the Civil Rights Bih -is
sponsored and pushed under the guise of do-goodism. The phrases, “guaranteeing rights 'or
minorities” and “ending discrimination,” cover its real aim, the subjugation of 185 millkn
Americans to an all-powerful centralized Washington bureaucracy.
If Congress passes the Civil Rights Bill, the United States Attorney General will thereby be
made a dictator with practically unlimited powers. His “inspectors” will swarm, snooping and *
prying, over the countryside — as if Judictator Warren and his presumptuous usurpations were
not enough.
This proposed legislation goes far beyond the wildest hopes of the Socialist-Liberals. It impairs
the right of homeowners to be the sole judges as to whom they will rent, lease or sell their
homes; it impairs the right of employers to hire or discharge as they see fit; it impairs the senior- •
ity rights of employees, union and nonunion alike; and it impairs the right of banks and other
institutions to make loans and extend credit in accordance with their best judgment.
This bill can affect nearly every individual in the United States: insurance agents, realtors,
editors, broadcasters, merchants, manufacturers, bankers, farmers, homeowners, teachers,
recipients of veterans pensions, civil service workers, receivers of social security, and parents of
children attending school, even school boards themselves. It would outlaw “discrimination”, yet,
it doesn’t even define the word.
If you find this difficult to believe, your doubts are understandable. It seems impossible that the
far-reaching effect of this legislation could have been successfully kept from the public; uut it has,
and time is short.
This evil plot must be defeated. Once control of all American life is centered in Washington, the
autonomy and sovereighty of our 50 United States will be swept away.
The President, as the House of Representatives, has deserted us.
The Senate, therefore, is our last hope. If its members cower before the winds of hysteria, ,we
will have had it. For the President impatiently awaits the opportunity to put his signature to the
warrant that will consign us, our children and our grandchildren to generation-long political,
social and economic bondage.
If you want to continue governing your own life, write your senators, both of them, and tell
them so. Tell them you oppose this bill; tell them why. Do it now.
