Communistic Link

rs THE communistc administration at washington
i heading toward the abyss in which France finds
herself?
The parallel between the two countries becomes the
more striking every day now that the Roosevelt regime
has allied itself actively, and "ideoogcally with Red
Russia
The decay of France began with alliance between
the government of Leon Blum (often called 1.-THE Roose
Welt of new deal France') and Josef Stain
This military alliance as well as a trade
alliance
Today the administration of President Roosevelt is
involved in both military and trade alliance with
Soviet Russia
When Blum made the Soviet alliance which spelled
the political and moral death Of the French republic
set motion every subversve element in the country
THE parallel in his respect between the Blum govern
l ment and the communstic administration in the
national capital is made manifest in the lease of life
that all the Reds and radicals America have taken on
They are now 100 per cent behind the Roosevelt
administration Just the Reds and radicals of France
were 100 per cent behind the Blum administration
The parallel goes still further
When France was sold down the river to Moscow by
her government the great majority of the French people
were not communistc and wanted truck with Stain.
The alliance of the Roosevelt administration with
Communist Russia is likewise OPPOSED BY AN OVER
WHELMING MAJORITY OF THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE.
But We too have been sold down the river to an
enemy that has plotted for 20 years to destroy our form
Of government.
That which weakened France and put the Red fifth
column on its feet is precisely that which will weaken
the United States whether Stain wins or loses.
THAT force is COMMUNISM which the New Deal
government is supporting abroad and encouraging at
home.
For eight years the New Deal government has shown
its communsc procvities by its constant appeasemen
of Soviet Russia
It has recognized Russia as legitimate government
although it is nothing but cabal of murderous tyrants
which selected elected by the Russian people
The New Deal administration mas appointed time and
again Reds and their fellow-travelers to office.
One of them, Thomas Amlie of Wisconsin, nominated
as interstate commissioner rejected by the
Senate strong the lewng radical odor that eman
ted from him. He then made assistant attorney
-oneral
This communstc administration has never shown
my real antagonsm to the Reds at home abroad
The alliance with Russia was, then the most CON
SISTENT thing this administration brag Of.
Step by step diplomacy in regard to Russia is
following Bums France
France today is enslaved state because she made
an alliance with her natural enemy-Russia.
We HAVE DONE THE SAME THING,

Drive Them From Power

IN BARRING Communists, Fascists and Nazs from
] holding any office in their union, delegates to the
UAW-CIO convention in Buffalo set an example that
every other labor organization the country should
follow.
The officers of this powerful union of automobile
workers know many of them from sad experience that
these groups not out to help the union but rather
to destroy tas they would destroy every sembance of
our democratic form Of government
Every patriotic American-whether aboring man
or employer-agrees with the UAW-ClO when it says
that these subversive groups have no place in the
American way of life

What Are We
Going to Do
With Hitler?
SpeIvin Tribe Gets Topic
for Their Discussion
BY WESTBROOK PEGLER

I HAVE received a startling
= question from some member
of the Spelvin Family Of Amer
leans which l herewith pass on
to the whole Spelvin tribe for
discussion.
What, my correspondent asks.
are we going 10 do with Adolf
Hitler once we catch him, sup
posing we do?
Would we execute him?
Well, undoubtedly most of the
world would regard his extinc-
ton as a blessing but. after all.
the Americans would have TO
create a court.
The other nations which have
suffered from Hitlcrism would
want a voice in this trial and
the imposSibility of obtaining
an impartial Judge and a jury
without prejudice against the
defendant reveals itself AT once.
The site Of the trial raises an
important question. too. be-
cause Poland, Norway and Hol-
land. which have suffered most
on the least provocation, all
would bid for the right TO give
the party. and our British
friends probably would like 10
hold il in some reminiscent ruin
in London, possibly the House
Of Commons. where prejudice
would pervade. the proceedings
in Scandalous violation of the
Scrupufous British system OF
justice.
Russia. Of course, would be
out OF the question, for the Rus
sian method is TO condemn the
accused before trial and then
hold proceedings 10 validate the

and ! leave the procedure in the
realm Of speculation 10 rush on
10 the question of the charge

What do we charge him with,

But the only people he has
murdered were Germans. and
they were murdered according

WALTER CHRYSLER JR. paid /

" $3.50 for yearllng in the
Saratoga sales, a.sum that would
buy a fleet of the automobiles
that bear his family name, and
lady reader wants to know what
there is about a four-legged crit
ter TO bring that kind of bee
som.
Evidently she is not a race
horse fancier, or she would not
be asking.
The yearling is a chestnut colt
foaled in 1910 and is by Hype-
rion. which is partly the answer
TO the lady's question.
Hyperion was noted English
race horse and sire. carrying the
blGest equine blood on earth in
his veins.
We say was. because VIC think
we read not long ago of Hype-
rion putting his checks back in
the rack. as the saying is He
was owned by Lord Derby, if
memory serves.
HYPERION was king among
IL horses and the SIS. 500 repre-
ScntS the hope that he may have
transmitted some of his kingly
qualities 10 his offspring.
Were il certain that this is
the case, the yearling would have
brought not SlS,500, but $780,
900. Maybe more
A guaranteed Hyperion could
win that much in stakes in this
country between his 2-year-old
form and the time Of his retire
ment and might account for a
couple of millions one way and
another AS a sire of winners.
But, of course, no guarantee
goes 10 Mr. Chrysler with the
yearling. All they give you with
a purchase al the Saratoga year
ling sales is the hope on which
the sales are founded.
This hope has cost other pur-
chasers in the past much more
than the Sl8,500 that Mr. Chrys-
Ter went for. and they finally
had 10 write il off as a total loss.
In the ordinary course of
events, Mr.. Chrysler has at least
a year of pleasant hoping ahead
of him. which after all is worth
something.

are tied for first place as the result
Of last Thursdays games in which the
Catholics pulled surprise and
trounced the league-leading Episco-
pals 20 to 81, their first loss of the
season. The Methodists also beat the
Lutherans by ten-point margin to
raise their percentage to tie for
first. The Methodists' only loss has
been to the Episcopals in the first
round.
Although the Catholics were lead
ing Is to IL at the half, the Episco-
pals rallied in the third period to lead
IS to II, but the Catholics then went
on a rampage to score II points to
five for the Episcopals in the final
frame. Scoring was practically even
for the Catholics, although A. Jordan
was high with 10; Critics for the
Episcopals also scored 10 points.
MethOdists Stage Rally
In the second main attraction Jones

MT. LAKE PARK

Chill airs and wintry winds, my
ear has grown familiar with your
song" -Longfellow.
Too familiar, if you ask us. Monday
night the east wind went on ram
page. Tuesday morning found great
snow drifts. We and many of our
neighbors literally had to dig our way
to the coal house; then by the time you
had the coal it was a case of dig back
to the house.
Ted Woods and Ray Calhoun had
the snow pillow out early and by noon
it was fairly good travelling, except
through the alleyways. But here again
we were made aware of neighborly
help, and from young neighbors.
While a truck struggled in the drifts
Willard Hayden and the Teagarden
brothers ran for shovels. They did
good job Of shoveling and soon the
road was clear.
Every once in while during snowy
weather we used to come down in the
morning and find that we had paths
around our house and round those of
the neighbCrs. Sometimes we found
the guilty parties" but not often. Of
course we could make a pretty good
guess that it was some of the young
folk and be right.
The Mountain Lake Scout troop
should be of the best. The material
seems to be pretty good.
There are two men we know of that
should they ever run for an office they
can be sure of the votes of the women
folks. BOSS" Means and Foreman
Faherty, of the WPA road work at the
bowling alley. Before they left the
job they made two steps-we really
mean steps they are "high, wide and
handsome" Someone whispered that
DR.. w. Blake Love was also in the
conspiracy, but no matter; the main
point is that it is a good crossing.
And speaking of roads: The town
fathers have decreed, and wisely so,
that there will be no more roads start
ed for a while or until those we have
are completed paid for. AS soon
as weather warrants they will be fin
ished and will be paid for also. The
town officials are not going into debt.
This was made clear at the Council
meeting last Thursday night. They
are being commended for the action
taken in regard to a yearly sum to
be set aside for the Oakland Fire De-
partment. Certainly they deserve this.
All are volunteers and not paid sala-
ries as so many people would believe.
So it's only fair that the department
be given all aid possible for the main
tenance of such a necessary organiza-
tion
