Men., May 1, 1950 The News-Review, Rosebursj, Or. 3 Toiler Should Be Better Informed, Stassen Declares WASHINGTON. May t -f.T) Harold E. Stassen told business leaders today that as far as the world's working people are con cerned capitalism "Is the mpst un dersold economic system In all history; and Socialism and Com munism are the most oversold." He said the job of reversing that situation rests with American in dustry. If it succeeds, he added, the result could be an end to the cold war with Russia and the possibility that a "third hot war" need never be bought. Stassen said the American work man is "grossly misinformed about the operation of his own economic system," and added: "It is not surprising. He has been subjected to a steady bombard ment of misinformation by left wingers, by many labor leaders, and by many politicians. He has received precious little of accurate information from businessmen, or from politicians, in understandable form." Stassen told his businessman au dience that the task of informing American workers is "a job to be done in your town, in your plant, in your own office and among your neighbors by you."
