mao auended a meeting OF TINS group ana mad sat there with many OF these same
people ad heard he very same terror tactics Subscribed as being among those used by
the Chinese Communists against community leaders and which eventually led to their
conviction" in a peoples court"T Two years ago these local people we're naturally
appalled, by the use of such tactics but many of them seem to find it entertaining
If one may judge by their behavior during the phone calls. Do not take my word for
this fact When my speech is relma at the meeting of this group or December 49, ask
that have pointed out am also concerned about these peoples claims of being anti
communist for surely th@ew who join the Communists in their efforts to downgrade
our government and destroy the loyalty of our people to it, cannot CLAIM such immunity
under the gmse of being anicommunSt
am also concernedw when am told that this is but a local situation and that Mon
me reads the recent issue of Newsweek. wherein are listed the states switch are con-
Idered the worst from this standpoint, he finds that Montana is not even mentioned
among them. This can only mean that conditions are equally serous nationally and
this deepens my concernf for the safety of our government.
am concerned also when Ireaize that the highest leaders in the Communist
movement have stated that they will ot need to destroy our government = that w
ourselves will do IT, am also concerned about all the extreme ight@t movement
sprngingu up in our country M centereda around crnkpot ideas Certainly or know
ledge and experience should tell us that actually these seemingly silly ideas are but
acoak for militant Enforcement organizations designed by perhaps the best avail
J able evoutonar talent l am concerned when am told thatan this ubversive actv-
: hy is but disguised political strategy. This is obviously not the cases inc it treats
I Republicans and Democrats alike. Even or local leaders have stated emphatcauv that
! their movement not political in nature.
/ I am concGnedb by the fact that President Kennedy considers these revolutionary
+ activities sufficiently serious to warrant his devotng part of recently broadcast adj
\ former President Eisenhower who carried the great burden of world leadership for
\ eight crucial years, expressed his concern to the nation through the media of teevison
I and the press
fl seem to De overoyal in defense of our Nvrnmen it is not because 7 am frn-
\ 1d; it is the result OF a studed appraisal of these activities, locally INC nationally
u of MTxistr evoluhonarhs and an awareness of the fact that the only defense of our
d government against anh-government activity is the implicit loyalty of it's cniunry
