Readers ask "what is meant
in Washington by a liberal?"
Current definition seems to be
a liberal is anyone who is liberal
with other people's money. The
degree of liberalism depends on
how much tax money is sougn
to throw around. A liberal is also
helped if he
can loftily ig
nore facts, If
he has never
had to meet a
payroll, or
make a living
In business.
Thus Harold
Stassen. head
of Foreign Op-
Axi inn Admin- r JU Harri,

Plan, qualifies as a really great
liberal. But for stubborn resis
tance of Treasury Secretary
George Humphrey, Congress
would today be considering re
quest for $10 billion Marshall

respect for 23,000,000 tough Turks.
FOA reports Turkey has re
ceived a half billion dollars in
economic aid, plus many mil
lions in military aid, and have
received committments for a
billion dollars of additional arms.
Yet FOA also claims because
Turkish standard of living, per
capita income, and diets are sub
standard, more dollars snouia De
given Turkey.
vl a four naees later FOA
reports that from a base period
of 1945-49 Turkey s couon pro
duction increased from 65,000 to
170,000 tons, livestock increasea
from 55 million to 62,400,000
head, cereal production jumped
from 6.3 million tons w it-a mil
lion tons, chrome production
doubled, copper production more
than doubled, manganese pro
duction increased tenfold.
In 1952 Turkey was world's
fourth largest wheat exporter,
ami with nhnut one seventh of
U. S. human population, Turkey's
livestock population is one-mira
of the O.S. FOA also reports
Turkey needs storage facilities;
grain storage capacity has been
Increased from a half million
tons to two million tons.
Thus, it appears Turkey's ma
jor problem is agricultural sur
pluses. American farmers would
be pleased to know how FOA
with dollar gifts would solve Tur
kish farm problem, which has
yet to be solved at home.
Yet curiously while Congress
has held exhaustive investiga
tions on postal deficits of $400
million per year, It has yet to
make equally exhaustive probes
at American foreign aid opera
tions which have already cost
taxpayers between $50 and $10
billion depending on which meth
od of accounting is used.
