isi AYEMENT OF TOM. LINDER,
' GEORGIA COMMISSIONER OF
AGRICULTURE BEFORE WAYS
AND MEANS COMMITTEE OF
_ ' HOUSE ON
_ RECIPROCAL TRADE AGREE-

: MENTS MAY 2, 1945

Oo lement of the Committee:

The most vital test of this Recipro-
ea Trade Agreements Act is whether it
will get us into war or keep us out of









/am convinced that the re-enactment
of the Reciprocal Trade Agreement Law
1937 was directly responsible for our
involvement in this war with Japan.
' Let us see what incontrovertible evi-
dence we haveethat our present war
with J apan was caused by the Recipro-
al Trade Agreements Act of 1937.

_ PEACE AND WAR

~ On January 2, 1943, the Secretary. of

State released a booklet or White Paper,
which was entitled PRACE AND WAR.
~PHACE AND WAR is a resume of
the United States Foreign Policy dur-
ae the decade 1931 to 1941.

On page 1, in the 8rd paragraph, be-
ginning in the 2nd line, we read:

TN 1937 JAPAN AGAIN ATTACK-
ED CHINA.

The records show that after the en-
aetment of the Reciprocal Trade Agree-
ments Act in 1937, and after Japan at-
tacked China the second time our ship-
ments of iron and steel to Japan in-
reased 1,000 percent.

It is evident that we would not have
increased shipments of iron and steel
1,000 percent at that particular time un-
less we had been fored to do so:

In three years we shipped enough
iron and steel to Japan to build a fleet
of war ships and to equip an army.

_ On page 34 of PEACE AND WAR,
the erd paragraph reads as follows:

















In line with the policy enunciat-
__ed by the President of restricting
__ the export to belligerents of abnor-
_ mal quantities of war materials,
_ which had been urged by the Gov-
_ ernment since the beginning of the
#5: war between Italy and Ethiopia,
a! neutrality bill containing such
_& provision was introduced in Con-
ress in. January, 1936. Secretary
State Hull, in supporting this.

WAR



mittee on Foreign Relations, em-
phasized that a neutral should not
deliberately help to feed the fires
and flames of war by delivering
essential materials to belligerents,
thus helping not only to carry on
war but to prolong-it indefinitely.
This proposal was not adopted by
Congress.

In January, 1936, the Administration
realized that we were responsible for
encouraging and abetting the war. Yet
after this our exports of iron and steel
to Japan increased 1,000 percent. Why?
It is evident that not only the President
but the Administration in general, real-
ized that all of the iron and steel we
shipped to Japan would be used in a war
of aggression.

Why then did we not stop these ship-
ments of iron and steel?

Instead of stopping these shipments
of iron and steel in 1936, one year later
in 1937 we re-enacted the Reciprocal
Trade Argeements Law and increased
shipments of iron and steel to Japan
1,000 percent.

On page 44 of PEACE AND WAR, in
the ae two lines of the Ist pe we
rea

On July 7, 1937 a clash occurred

between Chinese and Japanese



e Treaties

troops near Peiping in North
China.

Immediately after this clash between
Chinese and Japanese troops we increas-
ed our shipment of iron and steel to
Japan 1,000 percent.

How can you explain this tremendous
inerease in shipments in iron and steel
to Japan in the face of Japans-unjusti-
fiable attack on China, unless there was
a compelling reason why this Adminis-
tration was forced to concede to Japans
demands for this iron and steel:

On page 47 of PEACE AND WAR,
the next to the last paragraph reads as
follows:

A year later, in a conversation
with the Canadian Minister, Secre-
tary Hull said that since August,
1937, he had proceeded on the the-
ory that Japan definitely contem-
plates securing domination over as
many hundreds of millions of peo-
ple as possible in Eastern Asia and
gradually extending her control
through the Pacific islands to the
Dutch East Indies and elsewhere,
thereby dominaiing in practical ef-
fect that one-half of the world.

In other words; the Secretary of State
said that he had proceeded on the theory
that Japan definitely contemplated a
war of aggression. And yet, through

WHAT

Editorial - By TOM LINDER

Under date of December 27, 1946, the
Richmond Times Dispatch, published
at Richmond, Virginia, carried an edito-
rial entitled:

THIRTEEN AGAINST THE GODS

This editorial is an attempt to intim-
idate the officials of thirteen Southern
States. It is.an attempt to force the
people of the South to cringe before the
onslaught of the internationalists.

To give you an idea of the ignorance
of the man who wrote that editorial, [
quote the following paragraph:

This sounds exactly as though it
had been written by the Pennsylvania
Manufacturers Association, the. San-
hedrin of all the high tariff barons in

the Republican: party, UNCLE JO

G



DS?

GRUNDY. was long the spokesman for
this group of industrialists whose ideas
on economics seem almost to begin and
end with such enacenents as the
HAWLEY-SMOOT tariff one of the
major causes of the world-wide depress-
ion of the early 1930s, and the Second
World War.

Now what ignorance? Fiverybody,
knows that the great panic was usher-
ed in by the stock market crash of Oc-
tober 1929,

The Smoot-Hawley tariff measure bes
came law on June 17, 1980. The New,
York Stoek Exchange erash came eight
months before in October 1929.

And yet, this ignoramus, this agent
of the Internationalists, writing in the
Richmond Times Dispatch has the au-



| dacity to say that an Act passed in June

The Richmond Times Dispatch says:

othe argument of the

Commissioner s

is that if PRESIDENT cbt ap-
proves the reciprocal. trade agreements

now pending with 18 foreign countries,

the purchasing power of Southern farm-
ers will go roaring downward. They |

this unwarranted attack upon an Ameri-

Pan





(Continued from Page One)
those very years when the Secretary f

- State contemplated a war of aggression
by &apan, we stepped up our shipments

of yon and steel to Japan 1,000 percent.

Is it reasonable to suppose that we

would have done this unless Japan held

a club over our heads?
On page 49 of PEACH AND WAR in

the 2nd paragraph we read as follows:

On October 6, 1937, the Assem-
bly of the League of Natins adopt-
ed a report stating that the Japan-
ese action in China was a violation
of Japans treaty obligations. On
the same day the Department of |
State issued a statement that the
action of Japan in China was in-
consistest with the principles
which should govern the relations
between. nations and was contrary
to the Nine-Power treaty of Feb-
ruary 6, 1922, regarding the prin-
ciples and policies to be followed
in matters concerning China, and
contrary to the Kellogg-Briand
Pact. :

On page 51 of PEACE AND WAR,
the. 1st paragraph is as follows:

_ PANAY INCIDENT
On December 12, 1937, the Gov-
ernment and pnts of the United
States were deeply shocked by the
news of the bombing and. destruc-
tion by Japanese aircraft of the
United States Gunboat Panay
and three United States merchant
vessels on the Yangtze River in
China. The bombing and -machine-
gunning of the crews and passen-
gers resulted in loss of life to cit-
izens of the United States. This
government immediately sent a
note to the Japanese Goyernment
stating that the United States ves-
sels involved were on the Yangtze
River by uncontested and incon-
testible rights, that they were fly-
ing the American flag, and that
they were engaged in legitimate
and appropriate business. The
Government of the United States
requested and expected of the
Japanese Government a formal-
ly recorded expression of regret,
an undertaking to make complete
_and comprehensive indemnifica-
tions; and an assurance that defi-
nite and specific steps have been
taken which will insure that here-
after American Nationals, inter-
ests and property in China will not _
_ be subjected to attack by Japanese
armed forces or unlawful interfer-_ -
ence by any Japanese authorities gos
or forces.

This attack on the PANAY occurred

on December 12, 1937 and yet for several .
years after that time we continued to.

ship Japan iron and steel at a rate of

1,000 percent. of normal shipments prior

to the enactment of the Reciprocal
Trade Agreements Law of 1937.

Would you have believed any Admin-

istration in the United States could
have been so deluded as to continue to

ean vessel?

You know that. no wanenueaton in|
the history of this country would have |
_? peratitted. these shipments to go on un-

and Trade Treati







hindered unless Ji apan either

bluffed or had us in a corner.
On page 113 of PEACE AND WAR,

the Ist paragraph reads as follows:

Secretary Hull discussed Jap-
ans actions. in the Far East, on
the Foreign Affairs Committee of
the House of Representatives on
the Lend-Lease Bill. The: Secretary
recounted the various steps in Jap-
ans program of expansion, includ-
ing the conquest of Manchuria, the.
denunciation of the Naval Treaty
of 1922, the intensified construc-
tion of Military and Naval arma-
ments, and the Large-Scale mili-
tary. operations: against China
which had begun. in July, 1937.
He said it was clear that Japan
has been actuated from the start
by broad and ambitious plans for
establishing herself in a dominant
position in the entire region of the
Western Pacific; that Japans
leaders had enedly declared their
intention to achieve and maintain -
that position by force of arms and
thus to make themselves masters
of an area containing almost | one-
half of the entire populates of
the world.

had us

Let us see what was the reason that

United States. permitted. an increase of 3

1,000 percent, in shipments of iron and

steel to Japan during the very years
that the Secretary of. State says he knew.
that Japan was preparing for war of

aggression to bring all that portion of

the world under Japanese domination. |.
. Turn to pag 87 of PEACE AND WAR e
and read the last paragraph: 2

As euideuee: cumulated of the

endangering of American lives, the

destruction of American property,
and the violation of American
rights. and. interests by Japanese
i authorities or Japanese-sponsored
agents, in China, and after diplo-
matic representations had failed
to effect a substantial alleviation
of the: situation, further consider--
ation was given to the possibility
of commercial retaliation against
Japan, It was felt that the 1911
commercial treaty. between the
United States and Japan was not
affording adequate protection to.
American commerce either.in Jap-.
an or in Japanese-occupied. por-
tions of China, while at the same
time the operations of the most--
favored-nation clause of the treaty
-was.a bar:to the adoption of retal.
latory measures against Japanese
commerce. _ Consequently, i in. July,
1939, this government gave notice
of termination of that treaty-at the
end of the six-month period pre-
scribed by the treaty. That termi-
nation removed the legal obstacle
to an embargo by the United States
upon the shipment of materials:
to Japan. os

Tt is. evident from the. shove para--

graph of PEACE AND WAR that the

tyeaty between the United States and

wi

e

Japan of 1911-was the elub which J. a

held over our heads.
There was nothing, however, in the

or cireulating medium, including coin.

. As the gold reserve is reduced and as

the bonded debt of the Governmnt in-

creases, our circulating medium is based |

not on.an asset, but on a liability.

As the war comes to an end, as Gov-
ernment spending : recedes as it must, re-
gardless of the wishes of Congress, the

Administration or anyone else, it will

be: imperative to issue national circulat-
ing medium in lieu of billions of dollars
of outstanding bonds as well as to carry

on necessary Government expenditures.

Tn view of the above stated facts, it

does not require a seer or a Solomon to
see that this Nation is now on the brink

of the wildest money inflation imagi-
nable.
If through our Pie to avert this

danger the country is plunged into in-

flation, we will have broken faith with

every bond holder in the United States.

What is worse we will haye broken
faith with every man who served. in the
Armed Forces in this great conflict, but
broken faith
with those who died to preserve this
country from destruction.

Unless the Congress and the Chief

Executive take immediate cognizance of

this: situation, and. unless: immediate ac-
tion is imiatcd to. meet this dire threat,
then it will not for long matter what you
do with regard to. this so-called Recipro-

eal Trade Ageenients Bill.

The signs of this condition into which
we are now enterting can be seen on
every hand. There are a great many

people who fear inflaton, but many of
- these people have the illogical idea that
they, as individuals, can escape "he evil

influence of inflation if they have their

assets in cash. Many people do not real- -

ize that cash is the very thing that is
most affected by inflation. As a result

of this fear of inflation, it is a. matter.

of common knowledge among peopl
who are in position to know, that. hun-
dreds of millions of dollars in cash is
being tucked away in lock boxes and in
secret hiding places.

There are, of course, many persons
who i imagine that we can carry a 300 or
400 billion dollar debt indefinitely. with
the payment of a normal price. If such
were the case, then indeed the world

would be an Utopia.

If it were possible fora man or Nation

_ tc spend all they have and then continue

te enjoy it by the payment of a nominal

fee we would have found out actually

how to have our cake and eat it too:
This debt cannot be carried indefinite-

_ ly for the reason that outstanding bonds

are short term bonds generally. It
cannot be carried indefinitely for the
reason that outstanding bonds are not
in the hands of private parties. Out-
standing bonds are largely held by the
banks of the country.

These bonds in the hands of banks
have largely replaced. the monies belong-
ing to the depositors in those banks.
These banks have Simply substituted

ment guarantees ever dollar of these de-

positors money. When these depositors

eal] on the banks for their money the-
Government must see that the deposi-
tors get their money instead of bonds:

- The only possible way: the Government

~ ean pay these depositors off is by print- |
ing some more money and substituting
this inflated money in the banks in
place of the Government bonds which
the banks now hold.

It should be obvious to any thinking
person that this creates a situation
which is dangerous in the extreme It
should be clear that our entire national
monetary and economic system i is rid-
ing on a wing and a prayer.

This special trade treaty is just a sube
terfuge and a camouflage for free trade
is the match that will set off this BOE
der keg.

For this nation, at this time, to enter
into a program of low prices is just a
-form of national economic hari-kari.

WHAT IS THE REMEDY?

There is but one course of action to
my mind that would be prudent under
TLis

course of action has been set out in the
~program. presented to you by The Nat-

onal Association of Commissioners,

Secretaries and Directors of Agrical-

ture, which is fully concurred in by tite

Association, Southern Commissioners of

_ Agriculture; that course of action is nc-

essary and imperative if we are to keep

the Old Ship of State on an even keel
and ride. ou the storm-which is before
us.

That course of action is not only in-
consistent with reduced tariffs and free
_ trade, but it is impossible of attainment

| under anything approaching free trade

conditions,

The only prudent course that we can
follow is to maintain high prices in every
line. High wages, high salaries, high-
priced commodities, high raw products
and high everything.

We must maintain the national in-
come as high in peace times, without

| Government spending as it has been in

war time, with unprecedented Govern-
ment spending. If we maintain a nat-

ional income of 150 billion dollars out-_

side of Government spending and then
collect Federal taxes amounting to oue-
third of this national income we would
have a national revenv> of 50 billion
dollars per year-

If we assume that the total cost of
Government operation, racluding pro-
visions for our veterans and all, other
purposes, will amount to 25 billion dol-
lars per year,. then we wold have only
25 billion dollars left with which to pay
the interest and principal on the nation-
al debt. Remember it must cost many
billions per year to maintain our Armies
in Europe and Asia. Remember this
must be continued for a long number of
years. a

If we assume it would he possible to
finance the national debt, including ne
_ terest, for 5 billion dollars. per year this

(Continued on Page Hight)

PAGE SEVEN





























(Continued from Page Seven)

would leave only the amount of 20 bill-
ion dollars per year to apply on the
principal.
{f we assume that the National debt
will be 400 billion dollars by the tim
Japan is defeated and our armies dis-
banded, it does not take a mathmetician
to figure out that it will be twenty
years, with the people paying one-third
of their income as federal taxes, to pay
this war debt. And this is onthe as-
sumption that the National-income will
be 150 billion dollars.
~ Remember also that the taxpayers,

after paying one-third their income to.

the Federal Government, must still sup-
port their State, County and Mancipel
Governments:

After this war debt is paid Of: in)
twenty years, with the people paying
one-third of their income to the Feder-
al Government, all of us who are now
middle age and over will be passed on

to the Great Beyond before this country,

ean be freed once more.

Remember too that the 25 billion dol-

lar principal allowed for Government
spending will not begin to suffice if we
are to maintain large standing Armies
in Europe and Asia during the coming
years. That alone will cost 25 billion dol-
_ jars.to say nothing of ones avtonal ex-
penditures,

Tf, on the other hand, we penn prices

ries to 20 down, commodities and farm

prices to go down, and economic assis-

our national income instead of being
150 billion dollars will be 75 billion or

possibly only 50 billion.

Tf our national income should fall to
oU billion dollars it would be necessary
to tax the American people one hundred
percent of their income simply to carry
on,

If this so-called Reciprocal Trade
Agreements Act were entitled:
A bill to provide for a tax on
the American working people to
the extent of one-half of their in-

come to pay for free American
goods to other countries,

not a man on this Committee would vote

for a m@asure that carried such a title.
If this Reciprocal Trade Agreements
Act were entitled:

An Act to provide that every
holder of an American. obligation
shall receive the amount he now |
holds of American obligations but
shall be paid with inflated money,

not a member of this Committee of Con-
-gress would cast a vote in its favor.
If this Reciprocal Trade Agreements
Bill were entitled:

A bill to require all the work-
ing people in America to labor one-
half of all their time for the next
hundred years without compensa-
tion,

not a member of this Committee of Con-

in following the phantom of world free |=

trade.
In all of the testimony heard by your

Committee the most vital effect of this
entirely

kind of legislation has been ~
overlooked in so far as I know. -
The most vital effect of legislation

of this character is to take away from

the American working people, in in-
dustry and on the farm, the pay to which

_ they are entitled for their sweat and

toil.

Whether or not a few Sntereanonal
traders in the United States and for-_

eign countries are able to make money
out of these international treaties is en-
tirely beside the point.

Whether or not a few exporters and ;
importers of Argentina, Brazil, Peru,
Mexico and other nations will have a

monetary interest in preserving peace
with the United Biates is entirely be-

side the point.

A peace that: mat be purchased at

the price of slavery of the American

working people is bondage.

The Pharaohs of Egypt and the Chil-
dren of Israel lived without open war
for 400 years, but the Israelites enjoyed
this peace at the price of slavery to the
Heyptians.

Undoubtedly each and every member
of this Committee, and each and every
member of the Senate and House, must
know that free trade means low prices.

That it means low prices in eee as

well as on the farm. |
Many leaders of labor, capital and

polities in the industrial sections of the -
Nation seem to have an idea that they -

can have low farm prices by free trade
through the Reciprocal Tariff route and
still maintain high prices in industry
and business. :

This'is simply wishful thinking. BG
cannot be done because of natural laws
over which the Congress and Executive
have no power. You
