those little Foxes grew the more they

POLITICAL UNION
By Seth

Milo Reno, head of the Farm
Holiday association, hopes that
there will be a political union
between the Long, Townsend and
Coughlin groups to end wage
slavery Luckily for the nation,
it is quite impossible to mould
these groups into one large one,
because of the egotistical urges
of their heads, Long, Townsend
and Coughlin. Roosevelt may
not be the panacea that he was
hailed, but his politics is much
to be preferred to either the
Townsend, Long, or the Father
Coughlin type of politics.
The objection to these radi-
Gals ism t so much to their beliefs
or their programs alone, as the
politics behind it, and what it
will lead to-dictatorship and
economic suicide. Roosevelt's
billions would be only chicken
feed to Townsend. What he wants
to spend the nation hasn't got in
its pocketbook. And just try
spending what you haven't got.
You tried it in 1929, and you've
been sick about it ever since.
Even the national congress,
which has always played politics

in the gravy bowl, refused to

rights of religious freedom and
freedom of expression, only
slightly curtailed.
The minister certainly would
not Intentionally justify the pub
lie, or even private, solicitation
of any degree of crime. Yet such
articles as his tend to promote a
plan of wholesale crime.
Further than that, such articles
lend sanction and tend to pro-
mote more details of communism
that are repugnant to the ele-
ments of christianity. Those de-
tails take in much more than eco

tural ten commandments are to

is in direct violation of every one
of them.
The minister Jehovah may no
longer be worshipped; adultery
and the taking of human life is
to be legalized; and the neigh
boris property is to be coveted
and stolen.
In nutshell, Strachey was
preaching for the adoption of a
plan to have a minority over
throw by violence the U. S. gov
eminent, and to destroy religion
and all of our cherished democra-
tic constitutional rights. His
proposals are not simply intellec-
tual offerings to cure the fact
that we have too few very rich
and too many very poor. The
plan is designed to eventually re-
turn humanity to the cruelties of
monarchial or autocratical gov
eminent from which the race and
religion suffered thru the many
ages.
Contrasting with this defense
of Strachey is another recent ar
ticle published in another Luth-
eran organ.

BY Nonaad

The current issue of a weekly
Lutheran church organ levels
sharp criticism against U. S.
authorities for commencing de-
portation proceedings against the
communist, John Strachey, who
was charged with false entry into
this country and who was guilty
of promoting a program of sedi-
ton.
The editor of that organ and
the author of the article referred
to is an ordained minister of the
gospel and generally a man of
good ideals and intentions. He
takes the position that this is a
land wherein freedom of speech
is a guaranteed right and that
Strachey was merely advocating
an economic scheme to spread
the country's wealth more gener-
ally among the lower classes. The
minister has apparently just
skinned over the surface and
failed to notice that the main ten
cts of communism are not only
dangerous to the existence of Our
government but provide for the
destruction of the creed and ten
cts of Christianity.
Communism itself shuts off
freedom of speech. So not even
communists have leg to stand
on in complaining in this coun-
try about our shutting off COM
munists from making public ut
terances intended to foment arm
ed uprising against our govern
ment for the purpose of paving
the way for a communist Ameri-
ca. And certainly good, under
standing Americans should not
raise the issue of that right.
The minister should know that
the matter of right is a compare
tive one. Minorities do not have
rights when they are in opposi-
ton to the rights of majorities.
Communists are criminals and
comparable to high-jackers. They
seek to hold-up a majority of
American citizens with weapons,
to create dangerous physical haz-
ards, and to confiscate all prop
erty for their own use. And
their criminal plans go further
than the acquiring of coveted

knowledge that the industrial war
that ragged through the Twin
Cities last summer, fall and win
ter, was famed to flame by COM
munist agitators. No one denies
this. Will the critical official care
to make the first denial?
1t is no secret that the

conducted openly in the Twin
Cities in fragrant violation of our
