Widest selection of lasting gifts! Fre Convenient Parking! SPECIALIST IN 5 S. Central at 10th Women League Hears Economist Speak Answering the question, "Should economic aid be given without strings attach ed?" Howard Hogg of South ern Oregon College told tne League of Women Voters Saturday that he agreed with the Committee on Economic Development. That commit tee believes that aid should have no strings attached. Ferty League members and guests met at Rogue Valley Country club for a discussion, by Mr. Hogg, an economics in structor, of "Aid for Emerg ing Nations." Mr. Hogg began his discussion with the ques tion, "Why do we have an aid program in this country?" The ultimate goal is "to pro mote growth in nations -to increase productivity on a per capita basis," he said, and then developed the three mo tives for aid as follows: i Security - Aid itf a method of combatting .the develop ment of internal communism. This country is in competition with Russia for the alliance of uncommited nations. Rus sia can offer a faster develop ment because a government owned industry can reinvest output directly back into the industry. This may not be in the best interest of the peo ple, but it results in rapid emergence of an industrial power. There is a tendency to cen ter our aid on presently cru cial areas - countries having major . strategic position for our security. For example, Spain was given aid without question while India, facing a famine problem, must wait for prolonged debate on the question of aid. -Economic Reasons: A nation whose wealth increases, theo Events Planned Medford, Winchester and Howard Extension units are holding Christmas events and meetings this week.- Medford unit will hold an annual Christmas party and gift exchange Wednesday, De cember 9, at the Jackson county courthouse.

A nation will tend to produce what they can do most efficiently," the speaker said. It is possible that a transi tional period of unemploy ment might develop in a par ticular industry in a particu lar country, but this would balance out if there were free dom from trade barriers. An exception to this rule of production of items done most efficiently was cited by Mr. Hogg'. This is in the area of "strategic goods" goods for which no nation wishes to be dependent upon another. Humanitarian: "Aid can be justified on a purely humani tarian basis, but this is the most difficult to sell," said Mr. Hogg. However, living standards in many countries are extremely low compared to the U.S., and probably some sharing of wealth can be justified. Western Europe and the U.S. together have 31 per cent of the world's pop ulation and receive 80 per cent of the income, he de clared. Mr. Hogg then presented several facts of general in formation. There are many aid programs, some sponsored by the U.S. alone, some of a multi-lateral action through the U.N. Mr. Hogg agreed with a member of the audience that the administration of the aid program is extremely diffi cult - that a coordinating agency might be helpful. There is real difficulty in separating military from non military aid, he said.

However, 75 nations considered of n o n - military status, representing 114 billion people received about one- third of the aid over the 11 year period 1945-1956. The total aid during those years was $10.6 billion or one-sev enth of one years federal budget. : "Perhaps,"- Mr. Hogg sug gested, "we cannot justify the expenditure of any more. However, for agricultural price supports we can spend $3.25 billion, or roughly the same amount spent xor non- military aid." He went on to explain that the price support program guarantees the farm er a price, then offers the com modity on the World Trade Market at the going price. The money is then left in that country to be invested for de velopment. Often, however, the money lies unused be cause investment would be in flationary. , Mr. Hogg concluded his comments with the opinion that "If Russia could enjoy our standard of living, there would be less reason to fear war. A country with more to lose is less, likely to embark upon a questionable war. Mrs. Richard Hogan has re signed as secretary for The league.
