Comment On
World Events

One Of the best statements oI
policy on fighting communism ir
the United States that this column
has seen comes from the California
State Federation Of Labor, which
adopted it at its 1850 convention
The California federation has had
its share of communist trouble, a
larger share than most state labor
bodies in fact and speaks with
authority on the subject. The state
ment, this column believes, is ar
admirable appeal to reason and a
clear exposition Of the American
way to combat communism. 1t can
not be given in full here. In part
| it follows:
The American Federation OF
Labor has a long, consistent and
proud record of vigorous and ef-
fective opposition to communism
We long ago recognized the threat
of this evil doctrine to our demo
cratic institutions and to freedom
throughout the world. We have
fought the spread of communism
at every step, and we have driven
the Communists from our ranks
and exposed their deception and
trickery. :. =.
In this struggle to maintain our
own liberty and foster freedom in
the rest Of the world, we support
every honest and legitimate effort
of our government to guarantee
our external and internal security,
but in seeking to achieve such an
objective we can not permit our
representatives to be stampeded
out of hysteria and unreasoning
fear into adopting the same
methods as are used by the Com
munists themselves. There is a
very real danger today that people
Of the best intentions, including
many of our elected representa-
tives, in their eagerness to protect
our democracy against the Com
munist threat, will destroy the
very things they seek to safeguard.
y !. !.
The strongest bulwark of demo-
cracy in America is the Bill of
Rights and the other projections of
the individual contained in the
Constitution. We fully realize how
quickly and thoroughly these pre-
cious rights would be wiped out
under a Communist dictatorship.
Yet so hysterical have many of our
legislators and others become that
it appears possible that the fear
of communism alone will be suf-
ficient to accomplish what the
Communists at their greatest
strength could never hope to bring
about, short of total destruction of
the country through armed con-
quest.
We do not subscribe to this phil
osophy Of fear which leads only to
self-destruction. The United States
of America and it's institutions are
strong and durable enough, and it's
people brave enough, to withstand
communism and at the same time
maintain intact the Bill of Rights
and the other basic tenets of demo-
cracy upon which our country was
founded and by which we have be-
come the greatest nation in the
world.
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1950-12-07

1t is with these vital consldera-
tions in mind that we record our
opposition to the so-called McCar-
ran Bill adopted in haste and un-
thinking fear by Congress. AS
pointed out by President Truman
in his veto message, under this
measure any organization, includ-
ing labor organizations, chambers
of commerce and churches, could
be classed as Communist front"
organization and therey destroyed
and its officers jailed if the views
of such an organization on certain
public issues should happen to coin
eide at any given time with those
of Russia or the Communists. q.
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1950-12-07

Our careful examination of the
consequences of this type of leg
islation, has served to strengthen
our conviction that communism can
not be effectively resisted by the
old American custom of passing a
law" Communists have steadily
lost influence within the labor
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1950-12-07

Even more serious, if possible,
are the provisions of the bill con-
cerning Cooperation" "aiding" or
agreeing" with the Communist
party or its program. Under these
restrictions, entirely innocent per-
sons are subject to Imprisonment
if an act Of theirs is found to have
in some way benefited the Com
munist program. Communists say
they favor repeal of the Taft-H Hart
ley Act; for their own devious
purposes they also work for public
housing, extension of social secur-
ity, continuation Of rent control
and a host Of other social welfare
measures. But honest trade union
lists and other citizens of good will
could easily find themselves en-
meshed in the tenacies of the Nc
Carran Bill merely because the
communists and their front organ
izations loudly espouse the same
causes.
Many other defects in the bill
can be cited, but they are merely
cumulative in illustration of thel
same basic point. The entire bill
takes US a long step toward the
police state which Congress wasl
presumably seeking to prevent in
America. It's eject will, in fact, aid
the Communists in the long run.
And it will be of immediate service
TO them in their constant efforts
TO discredit our democracy, not only /
in this couHtry, but in the eyes Of II
he whole world

"The children can't help feeling
some affection for their own real
mother. Probably they have ideal
lied her all the more since her
death. Maybe father has even
tried to guide them by telling
them that this is the way mother
would have wanted them to be-
have-and so on.
you're going into a delicate
situation, Mrs. de L. Millions of
other women have done the same
and done it successfully. But
you'll save a lot Of trouble for
every one if you think less of your
rights in that position and more
of your obligations.

indirectly and don't let their
father suggest to them. that they

for their own mother. There is no

you as such, they'll gradually

Hasn't a stepmother any rights?
Mrs. de L. brought up the ques-
ton. I'm about to marry a man
with two children, and II years
DID," she explained. "I want to
give them just the same love that
would give if they were my own.
Really.s I feel that they will be
my own "
Then you'd better stop and
take firm grip on yourself right
now. 7 interrupted. IF you don't,
you're simply looking for trouble.
And whatever you may persuade
yourself to feel, you can be sure
they won't feel that you are their
own mother"
She was hurt. Doesn't it mean
anything to them. that their own
father has picked me out to be
their new mother " ."
Certainly" I interrupted her
again. 1T means to them that
you are an interloper-that you
don't belong there. but have been
brought in against their will. And
no matter how much they may
scrap with each other, as children
do, they will unite to oppose you" !"
What shall I do?" she asked
in trembling voice.
THE first thing to do," I sug-
gested, "is to get rid of the idea
of ownership. with which you
seem to be approaching this mar
riage. If you feel that the children
are your own, you'll think you
have the right to order them
around. Since they won't feel the
same way. you'll just be starting
a long-continued guerilla war.
Your husband will be torn be-
tween two loyalties-to. you. and
to his own children. Every one
will suffer.
Start, instead, with the idea
that you are merely friend Of
the family, who wants to be help
full. Start with the idea that you
can't demand anything of the
children-least of all can you de-
mand that they love you, as STEP
mothers sometimes do. You'll have
to win that love. and it may be a

Mr.. Butler called President Tru-

Any girl who has q grain of
sense in her head should do
exactly what you are doing before
marriage. She should sit down, as
you are doing, and calmly and dis
passionately consider the pros and
cons of the marriage she is con-
templating making and see what
she is going to get out Of it, and
whether it is worth the price.
In your case there Is love and
romance and being able to write
Mrs" before your name, if that
is any satisfaction. On the other
hand. there is a man who has
shown that he has little ambition
and no money saved up. If you
marry him, you will have to give
up your salary as a teacher and
be poorer than you have been
and do harder work than you have
ever done. And, in addition, you
will have the affliction of living
with your in-laws and having to
support them.
Nothing but the greatest and
most overwhelming passion for
the man could justify you In max
ing such a marriage. So, If you
have a single doubt about the
state of your affections. you had
better stay on the safe side Of
