Dut you 90 not mentlon IN
Vulnerable perldies, assas-
sinations and brutalities in
East Germany, Poland, the
Middle East and many other
places. You do not recall our
fiiers lured OF course by false
Russian radio signals and
then shot down. Nor do you
mention the intrigues and
purges by which K gained his
present place. Also. you seem
to forget this man was q
principal helper to Stain in
carrying out his horrors.
especially in the Ukraine. No,
the idea Is absurd. You pre-.
sent o false basis for hope.

September IS, 1883. should
be declared q day OF mourn
ing, one long to be remem-
bered and never to be for
gotten by millions Of freedom
loving American citizens. On
this day America lost its head
when it put out the red car
pet and welcomed the leader
Of all murderers, Nikita 5.
Khrushchev.
It was nauseating, revolving
and repulsive, to see Presi-
dent Dwight D. Eisenhower
clasp the blood-stained hand
Of one who is without human
kindness. but, we have faith
in America and all that 1t
stands for. and we shall not
be deceived into thinking that
communism will take over
and destroy our American
way Of life. To accept COM
munism means to become q
member Of O ruthless, CAL
loused, conniving nation.
All we have to do. is to look
at countries who were under
the heels Of communism and
domineered by dictators. to
see the fallacy Of accepting
false prophets and worship
ping wooden idols. I hope we
never live to see the day
when Communist Russia will
destroy and take over the
Capital of these United
States.
Mrs. Sidney A. Wiseman.
On his tour Of the United
States. Mr.. K did a lot Of
talking about catching up"
with US in the production Of
weapons, consumer goods and
agricultural products. This
may be true, I don't know.
However, in one area, per-
haps more important, Russia
has done nothing. I refer to
the alienation of suffering
in the overpopulated regions
of the world.
When our vast eXpanSeS in
the West were empty. we
rolled out the welcome mat
for the starving peoples Of
the world, and they came by
the thousands.
Russia, on the other hand,
controls an area in Siberia
larger than the entire United
States. This area Is sparsely
populated. lies in Asia. and
was originally settled by
Asians.
Why don't the Russians
open up this territory to mi
grafton from the terribly
overpopulated areas Of India.
Java. Singapore and the Nile
Valley?

It will be q surprise to most
people, I am sure, as 1t was
to me when I looked 1t up, to
know that Premier Khru-
shchev has been premier only
from March ~, 1858. approxi-
mately one and a half years.
And that Joseph Stain.
and his three successors, all
four had held the ONCE Of
premier during a period since
the Inauguration Of President
Eisenhower.
Premier Stain died March
5, 1858. Stain was succeeded
by Premier George M. Ma
lenkov, who served approxi-
mately 2 years. Bulganin sue
ceeded Malenkov as premier
February. 1866, and served
approximately 3 years. Khru-
shchev succeeded Bulganin,
as stated, March az, 1858,
only 10 months ago.
Since President Eisenhower
has held ONCE nearly 2 years,
with bright prospects Of max
ing it an even 8, the compare
son of tenures is surely not
unfavorable to the stability
Of the government of the
United States.
