CAPITOL PAGE BOY
FORCED TO DIVIDE
SAURY IS CLAIM
Washington, June 5 (U.R)
Radio Commentator Drew Pear
son charged last night that Rep.
Richard Kleberg, D., Tex., had
secured the dismissal of Robert
Jackson, 13, a c?pitol page boy,
after the youth's mother "pro
tested that her son had to kick
back $39 a month to the con
gressman." Pearson quoted in his weekly
broadcasts from an affidavit by
the boy's mother, Mrs. Ray
Jackson, in which she said:
"I. told Mr. Kleberg that I
thought he probably did not
know about the arrangement.
Mr. Kleberg replied that he
knew all about the matter, and
it was not unusual for congress
men to bear the burden of their
offices through such deduc
tions." Kleberg confirmed that he
had talked to Mrs. Jackson but
said that "I told her I didn't
know a thing about it that
such things were harifcUed by
my secretarial staff."
$39 Kicked Back
Pearson said that Mrs. Jack
son charged in her affidavit
that "every month when the
got his check for $129, he was
told to cash it and then hand
$39 back to Kleberg's secre
tary." "Last month," Pearson add
ed, "Robert's mother decided
to tell Congressman Kleberg
what was happening, thinking
that he might not know about
it. But he replied that he did
know, and that this kick-back
salary was used to bear the bur
den of his office. Three days
later, Robert Jackson was fired.
Congressman Kleberg is the
A great American, Mr.
Justice Holmes, once said to
America's commander-in-chief:
"There's only one thing to do
In a war. Form your battalions
and carry the fight to the en
emy!" Our battalions tare carried
the fight to the enemy before
be could carry it here Hence no
headlines : "Spokane Bombed !"
. . . "San Francisco Doomed !"
. . . "Los Angeles Falls!" For
that, alone, we homcfolkj owe
a debt beyond all paying. Ask
any Russian woman! Ask any
English mother!
Soon, however, we can make
I token payment. But money's
no good. We must pay in work.
Hard work! Extra work! Vaca
tion work! Sure, we're already
neck-deep in war-effort. But
with eleven million men gone
to war, we're elected.
Here's how it is. Where our
battalions have carried the fight
they can't live oft the country.
Not in New Guinea. Not in
Italy! Not, certainly, in mid
Pacific. From the valleys of Cal
ifornia, the fields of Oregon
and Washington, the range of
the entire West, we must pass
the ammunition food.
Food battalions are now
forming. If you're able-bodied,
you're asked to join. In field,
orchard and cannery, a crisis
will come" -with harvest. Yet
the attack must start now.
Everything depends on people
planning their vacations so they
can work in the crops; this ma
jot campaign is too complicated
to handle on the spur of the
moment. Hence your commun
ity Wartime Han est Council al
ready is on the job. See it now.
Our battalions and they
include our allies have carried
the fight to the enemy. They've
kept the homeland safe. But
thty can't fight if they don't eat
The food will be here. Vie must
pet it there! There's-only one
thing to do!

PUERTO RICANS
CRITICIZE U. S.
Washington, June 5 U.R)
Puerto Rican groups seeking
more autonomy from the United
States emerged today as the ma
jor critics among the world's
subject peoples of Secretary of
State Cordell Hull's recent state
ment on liberty and freedom for
all people.
Spokesmen for all major sub
ject people East Indians, Kore
ans and Filipinos as well as Puer
to Ricans hailed the statement,
but Professor Rafael Soltero Per
alta, a member of a Puerto Rican
delegation here seeking permis
sion for Puerto Ricans to frame
their own constitution, said:
"I do not doubt the sincerity
of Mr. Hull or the United States
government and I agree that the
United States record Is fairly
good, particularly regarding the
Philippines, but Mr. Hull would
not be able to cite the case of
Puerto Rico as good evidence
of his assertion."

Babson Park, Mass., June 2.
(SDecial Corresnondence) With
Lend-Lease commitments ap
proaching in value $25,000,000,
000, it would seem that our
financial backing of our allies
in terms of war materials, food
and probably in an undisclosed
amount of gold is nearing a
maximum. Reserve Lend-Lease
will provide a small credit
against the final sum. The ex
port of armaments may decline
from here on; but shipment; of
food, clothing, building materi
als and other items for civilian
rehabilitation will increase as
more territory comes under
allied government.
Already plans are being form
ulated for the disposition abroad
after the war, of surplus U. S.
motor equipment. Similar plans
will be devised for the gift or
sale of other war equipment
adapted to civilian use. As in
the case of France after World
War I, nations allied with the
U.S.A. in World War II, as well
as the smaller countries first to
feel Hitler's blows, will profit
greatly from our government's
generosity.
Vast Extent of
Foreign Relief
I believe we are safe 1,1 as
suming that U. S. foreign Relief
after the war in terms of adapt
able or reconverted war mater
ials, in food, clothing, Red Cross
aid and, government grants, in i
cash plus loans and credits will
reach additional astronomical
billions. It may total as much as
Lend-Lease does today. Further
more, as the U. S. will perhaps
be the only allied nation un
touched by the physical damage
and misery of the war, we will
rightly be expected to bear the
major part of the over-seas post
war repair bill.
The first fttuep nf relipf will
be the feeding and sheltering of j
the homeless and starving oeo
pie of continental Europe. Both
present friends and foes may be
included In this group. This,

making capital investments
' abroad. Perhaps some ;ears
after the war, when the necessi
ties of rebuilding the entire
world's economic structure be
come more clearly defined, U. S.
investors may have a part to
play. However, in the immediate
postwar period our help should
constitute outright gifts or sales
of materials at cost, The invest
ment of capital should for the
present be avoided.
What About Foreign
Capital Investment?
In the course of a lifetime of
supervising investing, I have, at
one time or another, seen my
clients own all kinds of foreign
securities. These have contested
principally of governments, mu
nicipals and utility bonds. I
have also seen them own foreign
railroad and mining stocks.
They have ranged far afield o
Germany, Russia, Japan, Mex
ico, and Latin-American coun
tries. As I look back over these
experiences, I doubt If they ever
netted a dime out of their for
eign holdings. Hence, I have

concluded It Is far better to have
readers' funds Invested in this
country where at least the in

fit of U. S. courts.
Air transportation, the ac

down the barriers of race, lan

old man who foolishly risks his
money abroad but who will be

his support.
Some Suggested Steps
With Common Sense
Our government and our peo
ple should not become hipped
on the idea that we should be
come the outstanding leaders m
world affairs. Destiny has called
us to play a decisive part in
World War II, but we should
not consider it as a permanent
job. Washington has had a lot
of New Deal experience with
out-and-out relief; but Washing
ton knows nothing about the in
vestment of capital. Such for
eign investments should now be
resisted as we would resist the
plague.
It further Is entirely possible
that after 1049- we may have
some years of severe depression
which will require all of cur
resources to overcome. As con
gress is now fast draining our
own Industries of working capi
tal, they will soon require all of
our accumulated savings. U. S.
unemployment and the fulfill
ment of civilian requirements
will also require vast amounts
of money. Hence, I trust that a
little Yankee common sense
may prevail and that we may
not entirely expend our heri
tage! One thing more: Example
is much more potent than pre
cept. In the long run we can do
the world the most good by put
ting our own accounts in order.
This will not be a selfish thing
for us to do, but it will be for
the good of the entire world to
see one nation run honestly,
intelligently and efficiently with
justice for all and favoritism to
none.

Washington, June 5 U.R)
The Office of War Information
said today the government is in ;
critical need or salvage tais
and called on housewives to turn
in 230.000.000 pounds from their
kitchens this year more than
twice the 1943 salvage.
Salvage fats accounted for
100,000,000 pounds in 1943, or
five per cent of the industrial
need, Owl said, but demands
have gone still higher this year.
The fats are used in making
glycerine for explosives, sulfa
drugs, soap and other important
items.
