to in Russia. Those are on a leash.
Their tongues are tied. They are slaves
of a tyranny which has murdered tens
of thousands of Russian churchmen
and will do this again when it suits
their purpose.
There are a great many fallacies
current concerning the proper course
to defeat the purposes of the Soviet
government. Too often we are told
that we must make this country the
perfect society before we can hope to
influence peoples abroad and arrest
the march of the Kremlin camarilla.
Where is there another country
which has taken into her family tens
of millions of men and women from
every corner of the globe and given
to them an opportunity to share in the
greatest abundance, in the highest
standard of living, in the greatest free
institutions to develop themselves in
freedom? Can we talk of competition
with the Soviet slave system? And if
our examples of unselfishness to people all over the world, when famine
strikes them, when earthquakes shake
them, when floods wash their homes
and crops away, has not taught them
what the character of America really
is, then, my friends, we had better
abandon the ungrateful nations and
attend to our own knitting.
Wet Nurse of the World
Think what this country could have
been today if a mere twenty per cent
of the tens of billions of dollars we
have poured into foreign lands had
been used for our own! Why must we
be the wet nurse of the world? Why
can't we help those who help themselves? Why must we help governments which have neither the brains
nor the courage to destroy their powerful Communist nests in the service
of our common enemy? Why shouldn't
they come here with hat in hand, with
plans worked out, and hire our technicians and industrial experts if they
really want to raise the standard of
living of their masses? Our helpfulness has not been appreciated because
we have acted as though we could not
survive as a nation unless they did us
the favor of relieving our hard-working people ot their sweat and toil.
The time is long past for us to keep
the gates of our country wide open to
every comer. It is next to impossible
now- to screen the millions who would
want to come here. When Stalin wanted to kill General Krivitsky, they
reached out for him in a Washington
hotel. When they w anted to murder
Page 52
Trotsky, Mexico City was not too distant for them. Their agents are already
roaming the country at will, and most
of them arc so-called Americans vvho
came here without a shirt on their
backs, took all we had to offer, anel
founded the Communist Party to destroy thc freedoms of their benefactor
and host.
Statesmen must think for the- centuries. Even if they think in generations, they should realize- that with the
population pressure we are now experiencing we will have standing room
only in this country within a century.
Our birth rate has risen from 16 to 25
per thousand in a sheirt period of time,
and is still rising. We must provide
for tbe millions yet unborn anel not
make this tbe dumping ground for all
coiners. There are still other lands
with more territory and more natural
resources to populate. Let Russia open
its doors to millions of immigrants.
And since she claims to be the- friend
of the downtrodden, let her live up to
her pretensions. Rut. of course, she
will not. Her entire philosophy is
based on falsehood. She is not interested in bettering tlie- conditions of
her own people, so how can any sane-
person expect her to worry about the
fate of Others? Her goal is world Stal-
inization. Ob. sure. Khrushchev would
not like to be- ealle-el a Stalinist, even
though lor thirty years he has been
shouting friini the housetops his 10(1
per cent loyalty In the leader he- now
calls an arch-murderer. Rut the- men-
passing of Stalin has not brought an
end to Stalinism, ft will never end as
long as his disciples live.
The Unmelred Pot
Testifying some years ago before a
Judiciary Subcommittee of the Sen
ate, the l*. S. Attorney General stated
that of 4980 militant subversives no
less than 91.4 per cent were- of foreign
origin or married to former immigrants. Tin- Communist movement
was created by my fellow ex-immigrants in their ungrateful appreciation
of what this country has clone for
them. The- time has therefore come i<>
give, the melting pot a better chance
to melt what it already lias taken in.
In a recent issue of the \'ctc York
Times- Sunday Magazine, Professor
Murrav P. Horwood of tin- Massachusetts Institute of Technology, wrote:
The question confronting America today
is whether sin- is willing to undertake ami
underwrite tin- development of backward
areas lor perhaps several centuries in order
to be-s-iii to make some permanent progress.
This continent, too, was once underdeveloped and a backward area. Did
anyone help us by pouring out their
wealth and their scientific knowledge
to bring about the "permanent progress" we have-'-' Our help i.s anel should
be accessible to all except the Communist gangsters. Rut it should not be at
the expense nl the American taxpayers. Thev who need our help should
pay for it with toil and sweat as we
have done- anel are doing today. As
long as France is the recipient of °ur
charity, she has no right to close her
factories down for long vacations. The
same holds true of all others.
Shutting our immigration gates for
twenty to twenty-five years is today a
prime necessity lor ibis country. The
men and women of foreign lands
should exert themselves a bit more to
raise their own standard of living and
not seek the easiest way out. They
owe a duty to their country. Besides,
it is high time- to create a more homogeneous community to help lessen the
crime waves, the delinquency waves,
and tbe heavy tax burdens afflicting
our people-.
Have Faith in Russian Peoples
In conclusion I urge you to have
faith in the- Russian peoples. Their
greatest yearning is FREEDOM, not
luxuries. To attain ibis they are willing
tn eat black bread and potatoes and
not steaks: lo fight and die. if need be.
They who have known slavery, hunger, disease, slave- labor camps, Oppression, and brutality under socialism. Stalinism, know better than w
hen- tbe price of liberty.
There is an old Russian adage!
"Happy is the bird in the golden cag*-j
but happier still on the green twig-
The Khrushchevs and Bulganins can
never make the- Russian people f°r«
what Stalinism-communism has don
to tliem. Neither can thev forgive
them. No rise iii the standard of Hvj-08
will ever blot out from their meinori-*
the suffering of at least ninety per ceI1
of the people.
The fervent hope is that the Christians of America u ill not forsake then1'
will not aid their enemy, will standjoy
lliiiii in spirit and belief that with »
little- effort on our part we can »"*
them In perform the surgical °?era'
tion upon their cruel Stalinists w ,,
will rill them and the rest of the work1
of thc Lenin-Trotsky-Stalin nigh1"
