When Sputnik ! went into
orbit many Of these people
advocated surrender to RUS
STA rather than risk atom
bombing. These included q
California schoolgirl whose
winning thesis was printed
in q London newspaper and
only then reprinted In the
American press.
Economic destruction is one
means by which communism
hopes to conquer America.
How many Americans. by
their demands for unsound
fiscal and economic practices,
unconsciously follow this
plan?
Cessation Of the cold war
or actual disarmament would
collapse the unsound Amer.
can economy, so the Com
munist apparatus cries peace
at any cost" and sends
Khrushchev here to propose
disarmament. But Dimitry
2. Manuilsky Of the Lenin
School of Political Warfare
predicted this 80 years ago
when he said, The capital
list countries, stupid and de-
cadent. will rejoice to CO.
operate in their own destruc-
ton as soon as their
guard is down. we shall smash
them with our clenched fistl"
He also said Russia would be
ready in 20 to 30 years.
Who has removed the
teaching Of patriotism in our
schools? Who has filled pub
lie school education with so
many frills and nonessentials
that there is insufficient time
to teach the basics Of edu-
cation?
Bertrand Russell wrote:
"Fichte laid it down that
education should aim ct de-
stroying free will, so that,
after pupils have left school.
they shall be incapable.
throughout the rest Of their
lives. Of thinking or acting
otherwise than as their
schoolmasters would have
wished"
The Communist Party USA
adopted some IS years ago
the theory that for the Com
munist revolution to succeed
in America, the Negro first
must be aroused and the
white race given a guilt COM
pick concerning Its treatment
Of the Negro. How many
ministers and church organi-
cations are fanatically press
ing this Communist policy?

his mission" is to abolish
private property" "liquidate"
or "brainwash" the capital
lists, "liberate" their wage
slaves" and socialize the
world. Yet, having socialized
a country, he is frustrated
by socialism's failure.
We know he is sincere in
his conviction that, in CAPT.
talism, the workers are ex-
ploited-even today in Amer

strike? He is as bafiied by
our behavior as we are by
his. Our labor laws are an

"heavy progressive or gradu-

by Marx in the Communist
Manifesto" He wonders why
we slap him on the wrist for
trying to socialize the world
while, at the same time. we
