Civic Club Members
Hear Proposal For
Defeating Russian Aims
Speaker Suggests Aiming
Legion of Liberation From
Communist Country Refugees

Thirty-nine members of the Oak
land Civic club heard a proposal for
the establishment of a legion of lib
GRAFTON in place of cold war or atomic
warfare with Russia, at their monthly
luncheon meeting on Tuesday after
noon.
The proposal was offered by Frank
r. Barnett, of Charlottesville, Ind,
speaker brought here by the legisla-
tive committee of the club Mr.. Bar
nett filled in for Brig. General Bon
ner Fellers, we'll known public rela-
tions man, who was unable to be
present.
Mr.. Barnett told the Civic club mem
bers that American resourcefulness
could find a path between the dread
full alternatives of total war and per-
manent crisis
He suggested arming the hatred for
communist tyrrany that burns
throughout the Soviet empire, to help
crack the communist system with IN
compromising psychological warfare.
He declared that America could or
game the eXiles from the slave world
and send them back as liberators of
their own people and so save the
world from Il prolonged and global
atomic war.
Mr. Barnett said he was not crit
icising any political party particularly
but was criticising the present for
eign policy.
He felt the formation of Legion
of anti-communist exile peoples was
vital to protecting America and its
allies from further Soviet aggression,
fighting on its grounds and with its
own weapons. He further felt that any
global, atomic war would unity Soviet
peoples, but that underwriting the
liberation of enslaved peoples would
bring out in the open many anti-com-
munists in, the Soviet empire.
He suggested training such Le-
gion in some likely spot, ready for
the time when there would be a revo-
luton among the Soviets. Revolution,
he believed, would mean fewer casual
ties for the Soviet peoples and East
Europeans, that millions of innocent
need not be slaughtered to destroy the
handful of guilty that our own young
manhood and the free way of life
would be preserved.
Barnett, on leave from Wabash
college W here he is professor of
English and history, served as Rus
sian Interpreter during World War II.
He was one of the first to make con-
tact with the Red army at Elbe river
and following We day he worked
with Red army repatriation officers.
He was with Gen. Clay's military gov
eminent staff in Berlin.
Barnett's proposal is receiving wide
publicity throughout the nation.
Mrs. Neil Fraley was in charge of
general arrangements for the meet
ing. Entertainment at the luncheon
included several vocal numbers by
M/Sgt. George F. Kirby.
