Gen. Clark Warns Against Communists Warns Against Any Underestimation Indianapolis, Sept. 18. —(UP) — Many Americans who embrace Communism “are uninformed people who have absorbed fiendish and dishonest propaganda,” Gen. Mark Wayne Clark said at a constitution day speech here last night. He warned against underestimating “the deadly and insidious influences of Communism at work in the world and our country.” The wartime commander of the fifth army, who for four years served as instructor with the Indiana National Guard, addressed an overflow crowd at ceremonies commemorating the 160th anniversary of the Constitution. Accusing Russia of adopting a “take it or leave it” policy in treaty negotiations, the general said he had seen Communism as practiced by its originators. “If Americans could see the results of Communism as I have in Europe, I am sure they would want no part of it. I am wholly in accord with the steps being taken by our government in our determination to support democracy abroad.” Clark recently returned from duty as commanding general of American occupation forces in Austria. He cited his experiences in that country as an “example of the contrast of our blessings with conditions in Europe.” “Many pitfalls beset us.” the General said. “Let us not through complacency and neglect, and through failure to exercise our responsibilities of citizenship, lose the freedom and the privileges guaranteed to us by our Constitution.” o wh (Continued Trotn Page 1) state commerce commission on the carriers’ demand for a 10 percent emergency hike in freight rates. Announcing that it would set up “cooperative stores” in the Detroit area to sell food to members at cost, the United Automobile Workers called upon labor, veterans, women’s church and other consumer groups to join in a “nationwide, organized protest against profiteering and high •prices.” “We know consumers can increase the buying power of their dollars only through a nationwide cooperative purchasing system,” union president! WaitedReuther said. He said the power of collective

buying already had been demonstrated in Detroit, because one of the largest chain stores had started a special sates drive. The UAW’s --cost” • stores in Detroit would be extended to other cities if locals there wanted help, he said. As the UAW announced its drive, signs appeared on the Chicago board of trade that the price spiral might be flattening out. The prices of wheat, corn and oats dropped for the second consecutive day in highly nervous trading. Livestock moved slowly at the big stockyards. Any sharp bre c .„ in prices would show at the wholesale and futures markets first, just as retail prices rose following all-time highs on the livestock and grain markets two weeks ago.
