The Foe Within

In our battle for justice we must
realize that there are thousands of
traitors within our own ranks-men
and women who, having mortgaged
their own craven souls to our en-
emies, are willing and anxious to
sell out our group for a mess of pot
tage. In myraids of instances they
have already done so. Many Of these
beings are like moles which burrow
beneath the surface, and they have
by their perHicious activities placed
the entire structure of our rights in
peril. The vilest, cruelest, most bru-
tai, craftiest, most venomous, and
most cold-blooded outspoken enemy
is far less dangerous than the vile,
crafty, sinking, snake-like burrow-
ing foe within!
