The people's voice. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1939-1969, 1945-12-21

international bankers. you are an isc
lationist. You say | used to attacl
the international bankers and now an
for them It's the international bank
ers who are for the things which
have just mentioned and every inter
national banker in this country, the
Morgans, the Kuhn-Loebs, the Chase
National Bank, and all the Others
were for getting into the war, when
was against it. They were for Bret
ton Woods, every one of them, and
they were for this World Charter, and
they were for every other thing which
you are condemning me for.
You speak of my not understanding
Soviet Russia. | have been there
twice and | think | know lot more
about it than you give me credit for
knowing. You have just been reading
lot of propaganda in the Daily Work
er or some other communist paper,
which feeds you lot of bunkum If
you knew anything about Europe, you
would know that there is less freedom
in Europe today, more fear, more pow
erty, less free speech, free press, than
ever before in the history of Europe.
You state that | would like to divide
Wet Russia | don't know where you
get such crazy ideas as that. | have
never made that statement and am not
in favor of it, nor am | in favor of
going to war with Russia. While l
do not agree with communism, have
stated repeatedly if the people of
Russia want communism, that is their
business. l know that you have been
reading some of these crazy papers
when you say | agree with my reac-
tionary friend, Hawkes., because that
is not true and have never supported
the fascist Polish government in ex-
lie.
Certainly, have read the book "Un-
der Cover" 1t was written by one of
the most discredited persons that |
know of in the United States. He is
a self-confessed liar, and self-con.
fessed detective, who at one time was
anti-Jewish and anti-communist and
then switched over and claimed he
was pro-Jewish and he is a self-con-
fessed agent provocateur. And you
believe such kind of trash as that. No
intelligent person that I know of pays
any attention to it.
You say that Russia is a Socialist |
state, not a communist state. Russia |
IS dictatorship pure and simple and |
here isn't any communist but what |
will tell you it is communist state,
md it isn't dictatorship of the ma
ority, it is a dictatorship of a very,
very small minority.
You say you have been in Soviet
Russia. Well, why didn't you stay
here? That is what you should have
lone. The only reason you got out
If there is because you liked America
,est.
| hope you take this letter up and
discuss it. If you will give me list
# the members of your local organiza-
ion, l will send them a copy of my
etter and also copy of yours. But
Ou WOh uO tHdt DcCduSG you QOnL |
are to either have them reead your
etter or have them read mine. Frank
Y, | don't expect the support of the
communists in Montana, and | don't
xpect your support.
Mr.. Roosevelt condemned Stain and
ondemned the communists to a far
reater extent than ever condemned
hem. | was for the recognition of
oviet Russia when nearly everyone
lse in the country was against it, not
ecause | believed in it but because /
1anted to see them have chance to
vork out their system of government,
they wanted it. But l don't want
for the United States, and l don't
7ant to see them impose their will
pom the people of Europe, who don't
Tant it.
Yours truly,
B. K. WHEELER.
