Communisms drive into Africa
is causing rising concern in the
North Atlantic community.
NATO has just taken the I'M
usual step of circulating among
its is members a detailed analysis
of the anatomy Of Red inflltration
into the Dark Continent. The in
tention is not that NATO should
take collective action to combat
the Communist drive, but that
individual members can move
against it.
Nikita Khrushchev identified
the long-range target in Africa at
the goth Congress of the Soviet
Communist Party in February,
1856:
The disintegration Of the i'm
perialist colonial system, now TAX
ing place, is a postwar develop
ment of world historic signif1-
canoe. The complete abolition of
the infamous system of colonial
ism has been put on the agenda
as one of the most acute and
pressing problems"
The blueprint for action was
written for the Reds theoretical
bible, the magazine Kommunist,
in June, 1857, by Prof. I. Potekhin,
Deputy Director of the Institute
of Ethnography in the Soviet
Academy of Sciences. Prof. Po-
tekhin is the high priest of the
African subversion movement.
The Main Detectives
His article made four points:
Britain's policy of leading Afri-
can territories to self-government
is move to ensure the continue
ity of their economic and political
ties with the West.
Support for Soviet policies
should be sought among workers
and trade unions rather than
among the bourgeoisie.
Independent African nations
should be associated with the cur
rent neutralist policies of Asia.
Peaceful coexistence is a theme
under which the Soviet bloc can
establish links with the newly in
dependent African nations.
Here is the NATO country-by-

there by force-is peoples re-
public" and q democracy" in
Communist language. And words
like freedom" and liberty" are
blotted over and obscured.
In this destruction Of the mean
ing Of words, the free world has
made it's contribution, too. 1t has
become habit in political inden-
LITIGATION to refer to the Com
munists as ''leftiSts" or extreme
leftistS." Always, they are placed
left of center. But left of center"
also happens to be the working
ground Of honest liberals.
In effect, the identification of
liberals as being on the cleft" with
Communists as the extreme left
iSts," leaves the connotation that
the Communists are merely a little
more liberal than the liberals.
The political fact is, of course,
that communism is totalitarian,
reactionary and imperialistic in its
aims of world domination. And
thus instead of being on the cleft,
it is on the extreme right of
the political spectrum alongside
FaSciSm.
What About Foreign Aid?
In the field of foreign aid,
found grave doubts that it is be-
ing handled in a way to give the
recipient country and the United
States the. maximum value. This
doubt was found even among men
who are helping to dispense the
aid, men who believe strongly in
the principle involved. One major
complaint was that the United
States Government is giving mil
lions in aid without proper con-
trolls on its use-while the
Russians are getting more mileage
per dollar.
One embittered American gave
this example:
Recently we agreed to finance a
dam in A.. So what happened?
We took bids among private con-
Struction companies. The low bid
der brought in few engineers.
