1t is an incontestable fact that our
country, the symbol Of the free world, in
the ultimate. priceless goal of inter-
national Communism. The leaders of in
ternational Communism have vowed to
achieve world domination This cannot be
until the Red flag is flown over the United
States.
If, for a moment, the grandiose Red
plan is scoffed at as being fantastic, con-
slider that one-fourth of the land surface
of the world and one-thrd of the peoples
of the earth are now controlled by the
worldwide Communist bloc
Certainly, the C m m un t S gains
throughout the world are evidence enough
that America, if it lowers its guard, may
be someday an easy target for the Red
threat. The Communist plan is to conquer
the United States, if not today, then to-
morrow; if not tomorrow, then the next
day, next month, next year-there is no
timetable, no ''Five-Year Plan" This is
evident in the Vaccinations of the Com
AAioAiAS1 L al ~ Oo11, dS oIiOWl NY CIiC dHdly-
sis of its 18th National Convention pub
lished in this Bulletin.
It is indeed appalling that some mem
bers of our society continue to deplore and
criticize those who stress the Communist
danger. What these misguided "authori-
ties fail to realize is that the Communist
Party USA. is an integral part Of inter
national Communism. AS the worldwide
menace becomes more powerful the vari-
Gus Communist Parties assume more
dangerous and sinister role in the coun-
tries in which they are entrenched Public
Indifference to this threat is tantamount
to national suicide.
Lethargy leads only to disaster. The
Communists have a savage plan of liqui-
datiOn for a vanquished America. The
blueprint can be found in the words of
Mao Tse-tung. Chairman of the Chinese
Communist Party, who repeatedly said
that 1t was necessary to liquidate 500, 900
'enemies" to solidify Communism in
China. Another pattern is the plight of
SOuHtiSoS III SdtClitC CUuHtllCS
who were torn apart and transported to
the oblivion of Soviet labor camps.
Under Communist domination in
America, the first campaign of liquidation
would engulf the lawyers, champions of
due process of law; newspapermen, whose
ageless fight for freedom of expression
would have no place under totalitarian-
ism; law enforcement officers, guardians
of individual rights; governmental lead
ers, local, state and national; and every
one falling in the so-called "capitaIist'
category. Occupations and professions
which the Communists term useless and
parasitic" would be abolished clergy
men, wholesalers, jObbers, real estate
statesmen, stockholders, insurance men,
advertising specialists, travelling sales
men-tke list for purging is endless. No
citizen would escape some form Of suffer-
ing under Communist regime. One need
but to compare his own WORTH his own
ideals, his own religious beliefs with the
atheistic doctrines Of Communism to de-
ternine his priority on the list of lqui-
datiOn.
The defense of the cherished freedoms
secured and handed down to us by our
forefathers is the responsibility of each
American. knowledge of the enemy, alert
ness to the danger. and everyday patriot
ism are the brick and mortar with which
we can build an impregnable fortress
against Communism. Only the intelligent
efforts Of all Americans can prevent the
decay Of public apathy from laying open
our Nation to the Red menace.
Very truly yours.
