Defenses Of Western Europe Are United States Defenses As Well

Prealdent Truman, having signed the Atlantic pact, forthwith
called on Congress Monday to Implement this epoch making treaty
with a foreign arms program running to $1,450,000,000, which would
go chiefly to aid our European allies.

It shows that a gent who sidles
up to the bar and says "pull one"
isn't simply ordering a cooling
drink. He's bending elbows with
history.
Why, It says here, beer has
marched step by step with man
in his upward march since the
dawn of time. Keer is as old as
farming and has played a bubbl
ing role In war, science, cooking,
medicine and the development of
a hundred modern industries.
What History Reveals

How did Joseph Priestly evolve

Where was the first air-condit-Inner

In a brewery In Alexandria,
Va., In 1880.
In 1810, the first year for
which production figures are
available, the American popula
tion of 7.2.19.881 drank 182.fi 9 0
barrels of beer and ale, or 0.78
them to stand off any Russian at
lack until American power could
come to tne rescue.
In short we don't propose to re
enact the role we played In the
last two world wars. Twice we
saw a powerful and aggressive
dermany strike unprepared
neighbors with lightning military
blows, leaving us to the rescue
after almost fatal injuries had
been Inflicted on our allies. Pres
ident Truman's message to Con
gress included these explanatory
points:
"The better prepared the free
nations are to -esist aggression,
the less likelihood there Is that
they will have to use the forces
they have prepared. Their de
fense is our defense and Is of
deep concern to us."
Our First Defenss Lins
So we see that the proposed
American aid isn't entirely an
altruistic proposition. As Mr.
Truman says "their defense is
our defense." We are acting in
our own Interests. Our forward
defenses lie In Europe these
days.
To my mind western Europe's
best guarantee that we mean
business is the fact that we are
indeed acting in part in self-defense.
However, we should be going
outselves an injustice If we drop
ped the subject with that blunt
summary of the position. Ameri

The phrase "mind your P's and

from the old engllsh tavern-keepers'
custom of noting down cust
