of The siies things in the world is the way
people criczng the Communists lest they pipe
up and batting at the top of their voices
criticize government from President Truman
down to the township trustees find fault with our unions our
organizations bosses and churches with
trembling but remain silent about the commies
because we don't want known red baiters."
This is attitude which should be shaken off rapidly
effectively possible for there time when
commies above criticism any more than there has
time when they pulled their punches in tearing
anything that stood the of their changing line
Those who stand in the public eye throwing their best
Sunday punches should be the last to claim immunity from
attacked Justly unjusy And the commes certainly have
throwing the book at anything and everything that stood
in the of their ambitions
WHAT DIFFERENCE
To my mind there isn't deal choose between
ascism and red communism This becomes particularly
significant week when the Communists throwing all
stepped and took the of Czecho
sovakia.
There something akin in the actions Hitler taking
presenting the boodess the world
accomp the action of Russia in doing likewise with
What difference is there between Hitler taking over the
surrounding nations peacefully" with their heads
which the Communists have taken the
the nations of Eastern Europe?
About the only difference which exists that the Russians
have dangerous and more efficient organization and
they without the cynical explanations which Hitler
gave following each successful conquest
And in the face of this and greater threat to world
preaching another telling
Stain should meet in the interest of world
and establish firm understanding
A meeting between Hitler and Stain would a and
modern version of Munich would need would be
umbrella to make the comparison perfect The Sacred
ready for flight but obviously Truman is ready
betray the free nations which the Communist
list of conquest.
THE APPLICATION
Since Communist Party evolved as working class
revolutionary idea have to use
all countries the tool through
allegiance the Com
they constantly disciplined
troll to bring about the day when Communism shall rule the
world.
Communists have been highly successful
conquest particularly 1945 be denied
their efficiency in doing supposed
in the nations which have been the victims Communist
plotting and intrigue They force be reckoned with.
Seeking uproot Communism the way that it
tried very likely isn't the to the problem

philosophy by prosecuting it using
that Democracy superior to Communism suppress
ing
only way that Democracy can succeed in
ming totataranSm either black fascm or red COM
munism, and that is by making Democracy and bringing
it closer to the ideal
OUTLOOK
AS matters world of ours the outlook is
Communism is succeeding taking over large
section of Eastern Europe 1t being
Democratic countries by blinded Bourbons who put
profits human rights Democracy being bound and
gagged by the representatives of free nation who openly
deny the civil rights of minority
This nation has good to- know that in shrinking
world few hours away every other nation
the face of the earth We closer China
India than the horse and buggy
Baltimore to Washington in the days sluggish transportation
We had better remember that there an atom bomb
supersonic rockets.
We do not need universal military training but universal
training in democracy If achieve
achieved it yet need have fears
while criticize the commies let forget to pour
ening this nation for its destruction from within.
