DR.. E. Won Buelow of San Di-

esting talk on Communism this
noon for the Kiwanis club meeting
at the Barbara Worth hotel.
The speaker gave a clear-cut dis
cussion on the formation and the
inside workings Of Communism,
declaring Communism to be a doc
trine and as such should be fought
by another doctrine, weapons be-
ing powerless to meet its challenge.
In proof of this assertion, he
pointed out that Adolph Hitler, re-
gardless of what people think of
him, has saved Germany from
Communism by substituting his
own doctrine of NaziSm.
If Russia were satisfied with
keeping Communism in that coun-
try the rest of the world would
need have no fear, declared Dr..
Won BueIow but since the doctrine
is being spread to every corner of
the world. it is time for people to
wake up to its dangers.
