tries to choose governments which
might be friendly to Russia (Since
when does democracy fear peoples
governments?
! 5 Far from guaranteeing equal ac-
cess to raw materials (Article ~, we
picture Russia's desire for share of
| Trans oil as a threat to the peace and
security of the world. eve all know
that British and American capital have
been exercising monopoly over oil in
Iran.)
6. Far from guaranteeing that the
peoples of the world, Russia included,
shall be free from fear (Article 81, we
have a circle of air bases surrounding
Russia, equipped with the latest long
range jet-propelled planes. (Such
planes are not even suitable for patrol
duty over conquered countries.)
7. Far from living up to the ideals of
the American people that we can show
the world how to live in peace; how
to enjoy the fruits of democracy, &C.
onomic and political freedom; that we
seek no territorial or other aggran-
dizement as in Article 1, Russia might
possibly think that we are preparing
to dominate the world for the specific
purpose of exploiting the people and
resources of the world for the advan-
tage of very minute portion of the
worlds population
Are We To Be Trusted?
Can we say, in view of this evil
dence of our good faith, that we are
to be trusted by Russia? Can we say
that we are setting the world fine
example. an example of true democ-
racy in practice?
Surely it is apparent to the Amer
lean people that Big Business has no
use for the laws of man, international
or domestic. Big Business operates by
the law of the jungle and the law of
the jungle requires obedience. Big
Business has the obedience of our
present congress. and it owns the me-
dia for the control of public opinion.
The only obstacles in the path of
world domination by American Big
Business are the Russian people and
the American people. The strategy is
simple. Kill the Russians and intimi-
date the Americans into obedience to
the dictates of the dictator
One of the favorite propaganda lines
in our papers is that Russia is intent |
On spreading communism throughout |
the world But one of the things which |
hey don't tell us is that the quickest
way to spread communism is for the
western powers to turn their back on
he starving. If we do this, they will
turn to the friendship OF
Russia. Can it be that our dictator
DOESN'T expect there will be any Russia
o turn to-? Our press, instead of pres
ling for rationing and controls to en-
lble us to help these starving peoples,
lrges that all governmental controls
,e lifted so that the American people
nay eat, drink and be merry.
No Time For Being Taken In BY
Propaganda
Washington got across the Delaware
liver while the British were eating,
and being merry. Big Bust
less may perpetrate in the name of
he American people, the most horri-
lie crime of all time, the humiliation
# the Russian people with the atom
omb, if the American people fall for
he propaganda of fear of Russia.
The American people believe in hui
lanity. in international law; they be-
eve in the principles of Christianity,
he principles of democracy, and the
rinciples of the Atlantic Charter. But
he American people in the year 1916
tand in grave danger of the worst ex-
loitation in history, the exploitation
f American morals and character.
We have much to consider before
re go to the polls this year. How are
re to use our mighty weapon, the
ote? Are we going to use it to curb
he immortality of Big Business? Are
re going to use it to clean our own {
