uprising In the eighteenth century.
She said that Britain had always
hanged Irishmen when entering a
war, because the Irish always re-
fused to participate in imperialist
wars. She urged that Irish Amer
leans fight against British imper-
ialisrn and for the freedom of Ire
land by keeping the United States
out of the war,
These meetings were part of the
drive at that time to bring Irish
people into the Communist Party.
They needed Irish people for show
purposes. In August, 1o41, all Sec
tions Of the Communist Party
were instructed BY the State COM
mission to get their membership
to contact as many Irish Catholics
as possible, in an effort to recruit
them into the party. The reason
for this was because a vast num-
ber Of prominent members of the
Catholic Church were expressing
their approval Of all-out aid to
the Soviet Union. The Commu-
mist Party felt that such utter
ances by well-known Catholic
laymer1 would cause people to
listen more readily to the COM
rades.
Irish Catholics are the only
people the party had had difficulty
in recruiting in numbers into the
ranks. This was the opportunity
the Communist Party had been
waiting for to make inroads into
the Irish masses, as every other
plan to recruit Irish Catholics had
failed due to the incessant attacks
made by the Catholic Church on
the Communist Party. AS soon as
any one Joined the party, it vas
the duty Of the recruiting comrade
to break the hold of the church on
him. This was done with caution
and often required a long period
Of time in order not to arouse any
suspicion.
A rally to win the peace, spon-
sored by the Third American
Slav Congress, was held at Madi-
son Square Garden, with about
$4,000 people attending. The CO.
chairmen were Louis Adamic,

The Republicans of the 18th

opportunity to elect congress
man if they can persuade Will
bur D. Matson, editor of the Nc
Connelsville Herald, to accept
the nomination. Mr. Matson is a
real American. He believes in
the Constitution of the United
States, which constitutes and has
created the greatest nation on
earth. Mr.. Matson openly and
frequently does so expresssit. He
has all of the qualifications and
ability and a full knowledge of
governmental necessities and is
able to express his views with
accuracy and persuading effects.
1t would be great asset to the
district and especially the Re-

would represent the common

would not be controlled by any
set class or combination of self

With reports coming from
Washington exposing reasonable
and tratious conduct of govern
mental officials in Washington,
it is time for a general house
cleaning right now. 1t behoves
every loyal patriotic American
to become interested in sending
to Washington men to represent
them who have a reputation of
being in sympathy with the prin-
ciples and ideals of the u. S. A;
who are trustworthy and will
work for all of the people and
recognize them individually.
1t is to be hoped every editor
of the 18th district will openly
encourage and assist in bringing
about the nomination of one of
their own members. And in the
interest of the Republican party
it would be a great honor to the
party if all the organizations of
the district would become sud-

duatriously for the nomination
of one who will leave no regrets
to no one.
