Continued from Page 4 cast of Republican characters may not be able to manage an economic policy or a foreign policy, but that doesn't mean they are completely without ability. In this life, you have to do what you do best, and what Americans do best is give money away. Our balance-of-payments deficit with most of the countries of the world is powerful testimony to that. I propose that the Reagan administration embark on a policy of huge grants to all rebel forces in all civil wars. I know it will cost billions, but it might be worth Reagan's while. I'm talking about simply buying those rebels off. Out right bribery. We've tried the trickle-down system of pay ing the oppressive dictators, but they seem to lose it all (minus what they manage to get into Swiss bank ac counts) to the rebels eventually. Why not give the Marxist Revolutionaries a chance at the money and see what they can do with it directly? Maybe the savings from cutting out the middleman would be substantial. Besides, those large corporations and in dividuals making more than $50,000 who have been bene fiting from Reagan's social and tax policy must have saved something.

Granted, it would take a 180-degree change in our foreign policy. Heretofore, we only have done such gen erous things for Communist countries with large armies -Russia, Poland, etc. - or for non-Communist countries with oppressive dictatorships. However, I think we can ad just. We're very flexible when it comes to giving money away. But the final question, as always in these discussions of worldly affairs, is will it work? Will it bail out the Reagan administration? Will people buy this as a bold new foreign policy initiative? As Dayton Allen used to say on the old Steve Allen comedy show, "Whyyyyy not?" It worked for Nixon. Whenever things got hot for him in domestic pol itics, he'd direct the spotlight on his important work in the Middle East of Russia or China. He wrote the book on staying in office when no one wants you there. But any president can do that if he correctly applies the important principle of reverse campaign policy. Ac cording to this principle, whatever sort of policy a presi dent has campaigned on and gotten elected on, he can violate. Lyndon Johnson, a peace candidate, could get away with waging one of the bloodiest wars in American his tory. Richard Nixon, a vehement anti-Communist, could get away with recognition of Communist China and de tente with the Russians. Would we have accepted Gold water waging such a war? Or Hubert Humphrey recog nizing Communist China? I doubt it. Can we accept Ronald Reagan's starring in The Buying Off of Marxist Insurgents? Well, we've accepted him in Reaganomics and The New Federalism. Is this really so much more to ask?
