.COMMUNISM'S
DANGER TOLD
Jesuit Missionary Sees 1t as
Peril to Constitution,
American Ideals

The Constitution and ideals for
which our forefatherS fought are
in danger Of being undermined by
the inSidiouS propaganda of Com
muniSm. Rev. D. J. Foulkes, Jesuit
Missionary, who is holding
weeks mission at the immaculate
Conception church here, told the
Hendersonville Kiwanis club yes
terday.
The speaker was introduced by
Rev. Philip O'Mara, pastor of the
Immaculate Conception church,
and spoke on the Constitution, this
being Constitution Week in the
KiwaniS organization.
Patriotism is one of the most
enobling virtues of humanity, Rev.
Foulkes said. 1t is embodied in
the resistance through history to
unjust oppression. Typifying pa
triotiSm is a banner never lowered
in defeat, a declaration of indie
pendence and a constitution which
was the greatest contribution to
democracy since the coming OF
Christ, and a land where Cypress
ed of the world may come to en-
joy liberty.
We have a glorious past, ne
said. but what of the future? No
mailed-fisted enemy threatens, but
an insifious propaganda bids fair
to undermine the Constitution,
which spells the end of democracy.
The day has come when Com
munism, Fascism, and BolsheVlsm
clamor to be heard. Communism
is the danger today, not in small
communities, but in the larger
cities where a spirit of Bolshevlsm
and unrest appears.
He declared that it was not nee
essarv to face a choice between
Fascism or Communism. If society
must be driven by centralized
force it is not worth saving, he de-
clared.
