TRIBUTE TO THE UNITED STATES

America: The Good Neighbor.

Widespread but only partial news coverage was given
recently to a remarkable editorial broadcast from Toronto
by Gordon Sinclair, a Canadian television commentator.
What follows is the full text of his trenchant remarks as
printed in the Congressional Record:

"This Canadian thinks it is time to speak up for the Americans
as the most generous and possibly the least appreciated
people on all the earth. Germany, Japan and, to a lesser
extent, Britain and Italy were lifted out of the debris of war
by the Americans who poured in billions of dollars and
forgave other billions in debts. None of these countries is
today paying even the interest on its remaining debts to the
United States.

When the franc was in danger of collapsing in 1956, it was
the Americans who propped it up, and their reward was to be
insulted and swindled on the streets of Paris. I was there.
I saw it.

When earthquakes hit distant cities, it is the United States that
hurries in to help. This spring, 59 American communities were
flattened by tornadoes. Nobody helped.

The Marshall Plan and the Truman Policy pumped billions of
dollars into discouraged countries. Now newspapers in those
countries are writing about the decadent, warmongering
Americans.

I'd like to see just one of those countries that is gloating over
the erosion of the United States dollar build its own airplane.
Does any other country in the world have a plane to equal
the Boeing Jumbo Jet, the Lockheed Tri-Star, or the Douglas
10? If so, why don't they fly them? Why do all the
International lines except Russia fly American Planes?

Why does no other land on earth even consider putting a man
or woman on the moon? You talk about Japanese technocracy,
and you get radios. You talk about German technocracy, and
you get automobiles. You talk about American technocracy,
and you find men on the moon - not once, but several times
- and safely home again.

You talk about scandals, and the Americans put theirs right in
the store window for everybody to look at . Even their
draft-dodgers are not pursued and hounded. They are here on
our streets, and most of them, unless they are breaking
Canadian laws, are getting American dollars from ma and pa
at home to spend here.

When the railways of France, Germany and India were
breaking down through age, it was the Americans who rebuilt
them. When the Pennsylvania Railroad and the New York
Central went broke, nobody loaned them an old caboose. Both
are still broke.

I can name you 5000 times when the Americans raced to the
help of other people in trouble. Can you name me even one time
when someone else raced to the Americans in trouble? I don't
think there was outside help even during the San Francisco
earthquake.

Our neighbors have faced it alone, and I'm oneCanadian
who is damned tired of hearing them get kicked around. They
will come out of this thing with their flag high. And when they do,
they are entitled to thumb their nose at the lands that are
gloating over their present troubles. I hope Canada is not one of
those."

Stand proud, Americans

In 1828, a printing press later used to print the
first newspaper for American Indians arrived
at the Cherokee Council in Echota, Ga.
