FIGHT REDS

Socialism and communism are
sweeping the schools, colleges and
universities of the United States,
Senator King, of Utah. chairman
of the Senate District Committee,
declared in an address last night
before the IS graduates of the

use their force in fighting this
menace, he pointed to Hitlers
leadership as an example of how
youth can be exploited.
Democracy to Live
It is now more important than
ever, he said, that the ideals of
the Constitution of the United
States and the principles of the
Declaration of Independence be
preserved. He predicted that de-
mocracy will outlive every other
form of government and that
eventually this country will lead
all others to brighter age.
Senator Kings defense of the
Constitution was prompted, he
showed. by the criticism of some
lawyers of recent Supreme
Court decisions" He expressed
regret that some lawyers are
following the false gods whose
teachings aim at the injury of
this republic"
He attacked Japan for it's Gin
satiable greed" in invading Chi.
nese territory. expressing surprise
no protest had been lodged by this
nation against the act.
Degrees Conferred
In more humorous vein, he at
tackled Hitler for "condemning
women to the kitchen" apropos of
an observation that there is a
place for women in the legal pro-
fession."
