"No decisive victory in the cold war is possible as long as the Soviets hold as terrifying an edge in military readiness over the West as they do today," he said. Baruch said the waste of defense billions resulted from failure to put into operation the vast system of antl-iniiation controls that Con gress voted after the Korean out break. "These powers were not used for months during which living costs soared, all, savings were cheapened and the real purchas ing power of every defense dollar was slashed by one-fifth," he said, adding: "Tribute" May Be Uppad "This needless inflation already has cost us 12 billion dollars in higher costs of defense and is likely to exact another 10 billion dollars in needless tribute over the next fiscal year. , . (Baruch did not ex plain his use of the word "tribute." Looking ahead, Baruch urged Congress to trim out all possible "unnecessary and postponable ex penditures." But, he added: "When you live under the sha dow of war. as we do today, all actions must be valued in terms of time."

W w w IMS To Yr Tli 3-7366 School Tie With Democracy Told By Speaker Here The National Citizens Commis sion for the Public Schools has as its purpose, to help Americans re alize how important our public schools are to our expanding dem ocracy and to arouse in each com munity the intelligence and will to improve our public schools. These aims were presented by Kenneth H. Dobelbower, Sacra mmtn Western States regional di rector for the commission, who spoke before the Roseburg Kiwan ls Club Tuesday noon. Dobelbower is scheduled to speak to the Senior High School staff this afternoon and at a pub lic meeting at the Junior High School at 8 p.m. tonight. His visit here is part of the program of the natonal organization to pro mote greater participation by the public in the purposes, programs and problems of schools. The commission, he explained, is a non profit corporation for the improvement of the public schools. Its formation was anounced in May, 1949. Its members are U. S. citizens not professionally identi fied with education, religion or politics. They reflect many differ en. kinds of experience, serve as individuals and do not represent any organization or group. The commission has received financial support from such organizations as the Carnegie Corporation and the General Education Board. The commission makes every ef fort to encourage the formation of independent community groups for the purpose of improving lo cal public schools, said Dobelbow er. It acts as a clearing house to enable existing groups to benefit from the experience of others, he said. Three Concepts Nt tdtd Local citizens committees should, to be successful, have three basic concepts: They should represent the whole community in which they are serving; they should be objective rather than emotional, and the successful com mittee should work very closely with school directors. Commissions have been formed at the request of school boards seeking solutions to school prob lems, and sometimes by I u e h groups as PTA's offering aid to the directors in their program. The national commission, Dobel bower emphasized, takes no stand on any national issues, nor does it affiliate with local commissions. In this way no pressure is brought against local groups. In response to questioning, he referred briefly to the Pasadena, Calif., school case, in which dif ficulty arose, but, he stated, thTe EW LET OUR LABEL PROTECT YOUR TABLE County Retail Credit Assn.
