Seeing Red
CONTINUED from Editorial Page)

The entrance of each American Oh
foreign engineer into the USSR is il
accordance with this plan and helps
on the deliberately planned destruc-
ton of life. A striking example Of
this was the fact that as our mer
were fitted into the work, these
aforementioned Russian engineers
were disposed of. The thought that
| was aiding this murderous destruc.
ton or life to proceed according to
its diabolical schedule was not pleas
ant, and | resolved that as soon as
possible, | would make a speedy exc
dus from the Soviet Union. As ]
prepared to leave the USSR, all my
friends in the aforementioned classes
babe me farewell with the statement
that they v expected to see me
again as they would not be alive at
the end of the five year plan.
| sat at the trial of the Prom Party
leaders as it was held at our trust in
kharkoff. The main trial, of course,
was in Moscow but we had our own
little trial, as it were. The chair
man stated the case, that the GPU
had discovered a plot, a huge coun-
ter-revolutionary plot, to overthrow
the government. A vote Of thanks
to the GPU was suggested and then
the secretary, a girl communist, read
a resolution demanding that the eight
leaders be shot at once. Put to a
vote, every hand was raised in favor
of the resolution. Hands Of those
opposed were then called for. Not
one hand was raised because of fear.
The, resolution went to Moscow stat
ing that the 500 employees of the
trust unanimously demanded that the
eight traitors be shot. Among the
hands raised Were those of engineers
who have since.been ARRESTED and
disposed of. These examples are
typical and picture what is going ON
throughout the Soviet Union. Every
trust is being carefully Cleaned" and
the last trace of former Russia will
soon have been removed lit is q
CHASTITY thought that we are lending
assistance to such a plan and were
American engineers aware of it's ex-
istance, it is certain that many of
them would refuse to accept contracts
for work in the Soviet Union.
/ sat in the office of marriage and
divorce and watched the procedure.
In they came, all ages from IL years
and up, signed their names in q book,
paid a small fee and were married.
Into the same office, but signing the
name in another book, another small
fee and divorce is complete and final.
No trouble at all. If you so prefer,
you need not even register the mar
riage, simply declare the fact that
you r married. Everything is all
right just 50 long as you don't try to
have q church wedding, and then

Our Sympathizers
Not q very pleasant picture, is it?
And yet our country is swept with
advocates Of this system; many Of
our supposedly best citizens are toll
Grant and call it a social experiment;
many Of our teachers and professors
are intoxicating soviet ideals into the
minds Of our children. Many of us
say, well, it's too bad, but if they
want to destroy our churches and a
decayed religion, that is their bust
ness. But don't we realize that it is
ALL churches and ALL religions in
ALL countries that are slated for
destruction. People also compare the
Russian revolution to the French rev
olution but don't they realize that
the French revolution was confined to
France and no attempt was made to
force 1T upon the other countries.
And that the Russian revolution was
but the first step-Ithat when the
b~olshevists overthrow the provisional
government, all similarity ceased as
the communists swept on to their
program of WORLD REVOLUTION.
So many Americans have failed to
note this turning point in the Rus
sian revolution.
In conclusion, Cd here is a Russian
primer, the one from which | stud
led. 1t teaches the child to leave the
church and to hate God. (2) This is
the manual for leaders of children's
groups. 1t is published in Berlin
and is for use in English speaking
countries The insidious instructions
contained therein are a revelation;

the destruction Of religion and
