TRUMAN
is

PRESIDENT
realistic
in
asking
Congress
to
provide
seventeen
billion
dollars
to
provide
aid
for
sixteen
European
nations
between
now
and
1952
by
which
time,
it
is,
estimated,
they
should
be
back
on
their
own
feet
economically
or,
in
other
words,
will
have
sufficiently
'recovered
from
the
disastrous
effects
of
war
to
get
along
by
themselves
in
a
normal
way.
The
President
has
been
courageous
because
it
can
be
assumed
that
he
is
going
to
have
a
hitter
fight
against
strong
opposition
to
put
the
program
over.
The
vast
financial
outlay
borders
something
on
the
realm
of
the
fantastic
and
will
require
a
lot
of
explaining.
Mr.
Truman
has
been
realistic
because
he
has
appraised
the
situation
and
makes
bold
announcement
of
the
need.
It
is
needed
and
there
is
no
use
trying
to
underestimate
the
requirements.
The
whole
.plan
is
based,
of
course,
on
the
premise
that
economic
restoration
of
Europe,
even
at
so
vast
n
price,
is
essential
to
the
future
prosperity
and
economic
equilibrium
of
the
United
States
and
the
whole
world.
The
frank
acceptance
of
a
policy
whereby
half
of
the
money
will
be
used
in
Canada
and
Latin
America
involves
sound
economics.
In
the
first
'
place,
the
United
States
has
not
all
the
goods
itself.
Secondly,
the
expenditure
of
the
money
elsewhere
in
American
countries
rich
in
resources
will
contribute
to
their
healthy
economy.
At
the
same
time
there
will
be
obviated
undue
inflation
in
the
United
States
which
would
result
from
huge
demand
for
goods
in
short
supply.
