"Mental Health" Plan and Foundation
Money Could Be Dangerous Combination
Two incidents that could be deeply
signiCicantare the suggestion in Wash~
ington that a Menta l Health Commission
may be named and the announcement
in the press that the Ford
Foundation has allotted fifteen milliondollarsforastudyofthemcntal
health of the nation.
There is no doubt that this is one of
the most important subjects confronting
the people of thi~ country and
one in which thorough research and
remedial steps ore necessary. In the
hands of ethical medical authorities
there is no doubt that the matter will
be dealt with to the best interests of
all the people.

sion, but, unfortunately, it is also one
of the most dangerous callings when
engaged in by unscrupulous persons
and it is a profess ion that has its
share of quacks, and crooks.
During World War II, according to
information on record in the Report
of the Subcommittee of the Senate
J udiciary Committee published J a nuary
3, 1955, the brainwashing of eight
million American soldiers by our own
Army and the p rogram of Indoctrinat
ion o[ these yGung men with Comm
unist propaganda, was largely und
er the supervision of psychiatrists.
The most important one ~f these
was Dr. Julius Schreiber who was
Chief of. the Program Section ot Army
Orientation proceedings. This r eport is
full of testimony of the torture to
which our soldiers were subjected by
officials of their own Army in eflorts
to force them to accept Communist
doctr ine.
When the Committee questioned Dr.
Schreiber about his alleged membership
in the Communist Party, he impudently
replied that he rc[used to
"answer any questions from the moment
of my birth until 1941" and implied
that when and if he had been a
Communist Party member, it was previous
to 1941. All efforts to get more
information out of him f3iled completely.
Dr. Schreiber is now. or was in
January, a practicing psychiatrist in
Washington, D.C. and Chairman of

tied up closely with brain-washing
tactics behind the Iron Curtain and
is widely used in forcing "confessions"
from their innocent victims.
Some very d angerous bills giving
un believable authority to various
Commissions and indi vid uals to d ecide
when an American citizen is a
"mental" case, have been introduced
in many States, the most infamous
perhaps being th~ measure introdu<;ed
in the Califorma legislature which
was only prevented from passing by
a lert citizens there who swarmed into
Sacramento and exposed it.
Take a ''Mental Health Commission"
appointed by politicians and
fi fteen million dollars spent by some
of the specimens in the Ford Foundation
and God only knows what the
results will be.
To Break Even at Conference Table
Slip Russians a Few Mickey Finns
We have the same contempt for Tito as for all other Communists
or anybody who is even slightly sympathetic t~ them, but '~e have. to
hand it to him for one thing and that IS for staymg sober wlule dealmg
with the Russians who visited Belgrade recently. . - .
An old Spanish custom among Moscow dipl om~ts IS to get their
opponents all lit up like a church and then walk oif With the agreements
all i;.~~e~~ ~~f:n~~v~~· have been partly the reason the Yalta and Teheran
conferences turned out so disastrously for everybody except the
Soviets. Observers reported that enough liquor was uncorked to float a
battleship for the thirsty Americans who, even when sober, were no
match for the tricky Muscovites. .
But at the big party thrown in Belgrade at the close of the eight·
day Conference between Russian thugs and Yugoslav crooks, th~ Yugoslav
dictator and his wife were reported to have drunk nothmg but
tomato juice while Moscow's Nikita Khrushchev staggered away from
the festivities listing heavily to starboard.
If our leaders are determined to waste time and money in conference
with the Communists in future, it might be well for them to profit
by experience of the past and ply the Russians with liquor, making sure
that each of them is slipped a couple of mickey finns.
In this way, we might have a fifty-fifty chance to break even at
the conference table.
Under the strange and bewildering concept of governing
processes prevailing today, it makes little difference
whether the successful candidate for the post of Chief
Executive carries the standard of the Republican Party
or wears the Democratic label. And no matter how
sound the platform on which he runs; no matter how
rosy or appealing the campaign promises he makes to
the people and no matter how sincerely he subscribes
to his inaugural oath to uphold the American Constitution,
he finds that his authority to make majo r decisions
involving the d estiny of his country, is -surrendered a t
the White House door. From that day forward, a n in ..
v is ible maste r stands be s ide him and until he t a kes his
final de partu re from the Mansion on Pennsy lv a nia Ave ..
nue, he is never free of this mena cing shadow.
During the Wilson administration, popular opinion designated CoL
E. M. House as the power behind the throne. Throughout Roosevelt's
long reign, Bernard Baruch, Harry Hopkins, Sam Rosenman and various
other back-stage personalities were labeled as the Rasputins of the
New Deal Court. The ghostly hand of the dead Boss Pendergast and the
grasping hand of the living Walter Reuther were alleged to have guided
the pen that wrote Truman's official decisions. Only recently Senator
Joseph R. McCarthy charged that a triumvirate composed of Milton
Eisenhower, Nelson Rockefeller and Harold Stassen supply the brainpower
that shapes current policies at the White House level.
It is true, of course, that the friendsh ip and personal relations of
each of these men with their respective Chiefs of State did, and do. have
an impact on eXecutive thinking and that they were, and are, able to
influence official action concerning routine and relatively minor decisions
of the office. But it is rank flattery to these amateur advisers to
credit them with fhe responsibility for the over-all direction and supervision
which has shaped American domestic and foreign policy since
we firs.t listened to the siren voice of the internationalists, veered away
from Constitutional procedure and headed toward a one-world totali- ,
tarian stale. The function of these men has been merely to transmit
orders handed down from higher sources much as a messenger boy delivers
a Western Union telegram.
Call the· Unseen Masters by any name you will but International
Conspirators is as fitting a title as any and it is in this manner that we
shall continue to regard them until and unless some red-blooded American
patriot in the White House dares to reject and repudiate this vicious
alien control.
To credit any man or set of men with originating the Master Plan
under which the American Republic is currently operated and whose
objective is the crushing of individual nations, despoiling them of their
national sovereignty and subordinating them to a vast super-state with
absolute power over all peoples of the earth, is fallacious reasoning
which cannot stand up under the impact of factual evidence.
The Invisible Ruler whose colors are fast being hoisted on the flagpoles
of this and other countries is no one man or clique of men, nor
even any one racial group as is so often charged, except to the extent
that some racial groups' representation in the World Conspiracy is
greater because they are more astute at seizing opportunity than others,
more avaricious in their greed for power, more skilled in the art of
deception and intrigue and more adept in the pursuits which concentrate
the bulk of the world's wealth in their hands.
The Unseen Power that is fast closing in over our own and all
other so-called free nations, is constituted of many men in many lands
and was born of the innate hatred of regimented minds for any system
of government based on Chri~tian principles, the dignity of the individual
and the incentive of prof1t in a free and competitive economy.
It is the product of twisted mentalities harboring diseased ideologies
and is supported by powerful financial tycoons with the over-

Incipient Marxists at USC
Protest Speech by Shivers
I When young rowdies at the Uni·
versity of Southern CaliCornia protested
an invitation to the Governor
of Texas to make their commencement
address, Dr. Fred D. Fagg Jr.,
president of USC, wired Governor
Shivers an apology indicating that the
dissenters consisted of a small group
notrepresentativeofthatschool
Unfortunately, Dr. Fagg's gracious
apology did not fuJiy cover the situation
at USC which, like most American
universities, is heavily loaded with
specimens of Marxian thinking resulting
!rom indoctrination by their instructors
over a long period of time.
Obviously these sordid facts apply to
many stn!! members of USC or they
would not prevail in the student body,
In proof, 135 faculty members at
USC later joined with the adolescent
Socialists in the protest, indicating
their opposition to any speaker unless
lle is left-wing or subversive.
A few cracked-brain young radicals

broke out in the press with an endorsement
of their action. President

weening ambition to dominate inte\-national markets and exercise
world-wide industrial and financial control.
Like all successful movements since the beginning of history the
World Conspiracy is sparked by brains and money, the two essential
ingredients for victorious achievement in any undertaking by mortal
The brains behind this World Conspiracy are contributed by an
element of human society possessed of this commodity in overflowing
<lbundance but lotaliy bereft of practical judgement. basic understanding
and plain common sense. This segment of the World Conspiracy may
be loosely referred to as the Social Scientists of the world who have
enlisted under their banner uncounted millions of crack~brained theorists
in government, in education. in art and literature, in the clergy,
in the press, in stage and screen, in labor and in all other spheres of
human activity and have welded them into an organized and integrated
instrument of destruction before which the forces of reason, sound
thinking, decency and morality must give way unless heavily reinforced
by strong regiments of good Americans now sleeping on the job.
Money for the World Conspiracy is supplied in amounts beyond
human power to compute by internationally-minded groups such as the
large Foundations, international bankers and other powerful financial
figures whose world-wide investments and far-flung interests have
automatically severed their patriotic ties to any certain country and
have cancelled out their allegiance to any particular flag.
It was inevitable that this unholy combination of warped brains
and inexhaustible funds should spawn a shady and depraved cell of
International Conspirators pledged to agitate throughout the worldand
principally in the United States-for one universal government in
which the industrial economy, religious beliefs and social customs of
the human race would be crammed into one common mold, with slavery
for all men and freedom for none.
More than twenty years of constant Marxist propaganda spewed
out to the American people by Communist~dominated groups in the
East-not excluding tax-supported agencies of government-and which
was spread with deadly precision by the subversive transmission belts
of radio, press, television, stage and screen and all other channels of
human communication including the pulpits of m3.ny Protestant
churches, has so thoroughly softened up the American public that effective
resistance is gradually crumbling.
Couple this anti~American and Godless propaganda with weak
]C'aders and decadent statesmen in Washington who have lost the will
to defend a Constitutional Republic bought with the blood of American
patriots or to protect it from the enemies who seek its ruin, and it becomes
unDerstandable why .fear and haunting terror have taken up
their permanent abode in millions of American hearts.
If the charge of invisible rulership over the United States were
merely the belief of the editor of this publication, it would be worth no
more and no less than the value of one person's opinion, but this charge
has been repeatedly made on the floor of the United States Senate by
members of that body which invests the statement with a measure of
authority we do not possess. It has also been inferentially admitted by a
Justice of the Supreme Court who must be regarded as final authority
since he belongs in the category of those who compose the brain contingent
of the World Conspiracy. We refer to Felix Frankfurter who, when
asked at a recent Washington cocktail party by a foreigner "who really
runs the United States?'' is quoted in the press as having replied: "The
real rulers of the nation are undiscoverable."
Senator \Villiam E. Jenner of Indiana has time and again on the
Senate floor and in addresses throughout the country charged that all-
Just to Keep the
Record Stra!ght
Some of the President's advisers
should dig up a copy of the 1952
Republican Platform and let him
brush up on it in order to avoid
some confusion on his part about
what it really did promise.
When asked at his press conference
about the recommendation
of the Hoover Commission that all
steam and hydro-electric plants
which now supply the Atomic Energy
Commission be taken over by
that agency and the rest sold or
leased to private enterprise, the
president is reported to have recalled
a campaign promise he
made "not to wreck the TVA."
Following- which the Chicago
Tribune obligingly published a
section of the 1952 Republican
Platform on which the president
was elected:
"We advocate reduction o( expenditures
by the elimination of waste
and extravagance so that the budget
will be balaneed.and a general tax
reduction can be made."
"We pledge a thoro reorganization
of the federal government in accord-

the report of the Hoover commission
which was established by the Republican
80th Congress."
"We vigorously oppose the efforts
of this national administration ... to
establish all-powerful federal socialist
valley authorities."
"For 20 years the administration
has praised free enterprise while actually
wrecking it. . . . There is
scarcely a phase of our economic
and social life today in which government
does not attempt to interfere.

hostility to initiative and private enterprise

powerful and invisible masters, whom he designates as the "Elite''
super-government, dictate our national policy. ''No President has been
able to subdue this Elite" he told the Senate on April 19 and warned
:hat "the strength and dignity of the United States are ebbing away."
Senator George W. Malone of Nevada said recel1tly in an interview
to the press: "The rulers of this country are an active group of internationalists,
rooted in Wall Street, with common financial and blood
ties in the counting houses of London ... Investigation of international
groups and internationally-minded individuals might uncover the real
rulers of this country."
Three main objectives of the international bankers, the great
Foundations and other world-wide financial interests tied in with the
World Conspiracy have already been attained, thereby practically completing
their part of the program. These three objectives were:
First, the setting up of the World Bank whose principal function is
to stabilize the currency of the countries in which these internationalists
operate, thus insuring that their foreign holdings and investments
are made safe and secure.
Second, the extension of the so-called Mutual Trade Agreements
Act which breaks down tariff barriers all over the world and enables
these international concerns to ship their products from one country
to another without tariff restrictions and restraints. '
Third, the completion and recognition af the International Labor
Organization as a world bargaining agency in labor relations so as to
~rovide workers in foreign countries at wages in keeping with the low
llvin~ standards of such countries for the benefit of international industrialists
in the manufacture of their products abroad.
With these three main objectives accomplished, the financial backers
of the World Conspiracy are leaving the Social Scientists free to
complete the over-ali program by the addition of such fancy little frills
as H~man Rights, C?enocide, UNESCO. the social mixing and interw
J_Tiarna~e of the while and black races and all the other queer little
1deologrcal touches so dear to the hearts of the boys with the tinted
lips, mincing steps and high-pitched vocal equipment.
The United Nations is the vehicle through which it is proposed to
co?summate and make legally binding the program of the World Conspiracy
and when the time seems propitious, the noose will be looped
around the necks of free Americans as they are quietly led into a state
of humary bondage from which there will be no escape.

June, 1955 THE SOUTHERN CONSERVATIVE
Call It 'Bargaining' If You Will
But Our Name for It Is Blackmail
The contract between the Ford
Motor Company and the CIO Union
embodying some idiotic form
of guaranteed wages, was headlined
in the press as "A new concept
of labor-management relations
in American Industry."
To us it was no such thing. We
do not regard either the party
presuming to speak for industry
or the seli-styled spokesman of
labor capable of recognizing any

Public Opinion Molders
Fair Down On tbe Job
The attitude taken by many officials
of State government and
newspaper editors in the South
concerning the latest pronouncement
on segregation is very discouraging
to those who expect
firmness and backbone on the part
of those in positions of :responsibility
and who direct public
thinking.
Too many o( them talk o( 41 proceeding
with caution" and 41following
a policy of deliberation'' and
"working out the problem of integration
to the best interests of
both races" and similar drivel.
If the rights o( States arc not
defended by spokesmen for Constitutional
government in the
South, what hope is there that
the Supreme Court won't go further
in violation of this revered
principle by dictating to the citizen
what church he must attend
a~d to what denomination he must
belong which is just as much
within the Supreme Court's au~
thority to decide as is the question
of how our school systems
must be operated.
What a refreshing contrast to
all this namby-pamby, wishywashy
discussion of compliance is
the simple, dignified and definite

Says Segregation Is a Local Matter
Widespread disapproval of the Supreme
Court's high-handed ruling on
segregation last year and which resulted
in thousands of protests to
Washington oflicials, is reported to
have been the reason for the Court's
recent vague and luke-warm order
on how "integration" should be put
intoe!!ect.
While the liberal press has carried
largely the views of the left-wing
element which approves desegregation
in the schools, it is known that sentiment
against it is equally strong
throughout the country.
The Court's decree on compliance
with its earlier ruling, was confusing
and contradictory but the gist of it
was that this matter should be left
largely to local officials in the States.
Unfortunately they were a little
late in discovering this fundamental
fact of American governmental procedure.
If the high Court had not
been converted into a propaganda
machine for promotion o! Socialistic
proposals, they would have taken this

that their earlier decision was based
on a book by The Stockholm Socialist.

Expert Advice Which Will
PrDbably Be Disregard2rl
The most glaring defect in the
field o( American propaganda for
defense of the Republic was pointed
out recently by Karl Baarslag
of Dallas, one of the top authorities
in this country on Communist
tactics and methods of infiltra~
tion.
In the American National Research
Report, of which he is editor,
he tells of the hundreds of
Foundations which have been set
up in the East for every conceiva~
ble objective except to combat Socialism
and Communism. Mf.
Baarslag did not call any names
but he might have added that the
Ford, Rockefeller and Carnegie
Foundations habitually subsidize
groups, organizations, publications
and individuals who constantly
attack the American form
of government and bear down
heavily on the ble·ssings of the
perfect Socialist state painted by
Karl Marx in the Communist
Manifesto.
These Foundations also r.1.ake
grants for medical research which
has undoubtedly been of incalculable
benefit to humanity but not
to the extent that it can off-set the
harm they have done to American
Constitutional govern m c n t
through their contributions to an
outright Socialist program over a
period of many years. To prolong
human life while curtailing_ human
liberty js a questionable servke
to the American people or to
the Republic.
Mr. Baarslag suggests that, as
an oUset to this one-sided propaganda,
the rich men of the Southwest
get together and set up a
Foundation for the sole purpose of
backing organizations, publications
and groups who are striving to
preserve the American way of life.
uThe dutv of all should not be the
burden of the few," he argues in
urging wealthy men of Texas and
the Southwest to get behind those
who are fighting their battles
while they carry on their business
affairs, play golf or vacation in
Europe.
Mr. Baarslag has suggested a
sound and sensible procedure for
the_ men of great fortunes in Texas
and the Southwest who want to
preserve the American free enterprise
system under which they
have prospered beyond their wildest
dreams and fondest hopes but,
unfortunately, he is a newcomer
to these parts and is unfamiliar
with sectional thinking in the
Southwest. For some strange and
unfathomable reason, the possessors
of great fortunes in this area
of the world seem to feel that their
power and money gives them an ,
Impregnable position which will
endure under any sort of economy
foq~etting that, under a totalitarian
government. their kind have
been the first to be liquidated in
other countries when the Iron Curtain
was dropped
One of the baffling aspects of
the situation is that there always
seems to be plenty of funds for the
generous endowment o( the uni-versities
in Texas and the Southwest
whe~e students are taught
that "Capitalism" is a dirty word
and that the ideal form of government
is that in which the State is
supreme and the citizen only a
small cog which helps to operJI.o
its vast machinery.

We're Grateful for
This Fine Tribute
We have received a letter from
Frank Cunningham, Ph. D., Los
Angeles and who, with Pat Barham
former Hearst writer and
foreign cot:respondent, wrote one
of the most interesting books to
come out of World War II, "Oper~
<Ilion Nightmare."
In view of J1is request, we see
nothing to do but print his letter
in full:
''I have recenUv returned from
the Congress of Freedom in San
Francisco. There was one thing
that took place there which I ask
that you put in the next edition of
the Southern Conservative- and
to hell with your modesty.
''Mary Cain of Mississippi was
speaking and she made a reference
to "Ida Darden." No sooner were
the words spoken than the audience
broke into loud and prolonged
applause. Pleased and pretty,
Mary just stood there smiling and
then said how happy she was that
the audience knew about Ida- Darden.
"So, Ida, you brought the house
down even though you didn't get
to the Congress. Maybe if you had
been there and had been a speaker,
they would have applauded until
the roof fell in."
Thanks a million, Frank. Since
we're no speaker, maybe it is just
as well we were not there. We turn

THE SOU THE RN CONSERVATIV E
Old Communist Fronts Never Die
They Just Change Their Names
When the Southwestern Regional Conference on Integration held
forth at the community-supported and tax-exempt YWCA in Houston
recently, observers saw in this outfit the ghost of the old Southern
Conference for Human Welfare and were conscious of the same distinct
odor which attended that defunct subversive group.
The Southern Conference for Human Welfare faded out of the
picture some years ago when ·an investigating committee of Congress
denounced it as a Communist front seeking to serve the aims of the
Soviet Union.
The old SCIIW was composed almost enUrely of racial deviates,
one of the most prominent of whom took a leading part in the recent
Houston Conference. His name is James A. Dombrowski, identified last
year in sworn testimony before a Congressional investigating committee
as having been a Communist Party member who accepted party
discipline. Dombrowski, a former official of SCHW was coordinator
of the Houston Conlerence and letters were sent out over his signature
previous to the meeting stating that it was being arranged by the
Southern Conference Educational Fund. However, during the Conference
in Houston, Dombrowski was publicly named by the chairman as
being responsible for the whole thing.
In 1942, Dombrowski's name appeared as a sponsor on the letterhead
of the People's Institute of Applied Religion, of which the Rev.
Claude C. Williams was a director. PIAR was cited as subversive and
Communist by the U. S. Attorney General in 1948 and Williams was
cited by a Congressional committee as a Communist Party member.
Another old wheel horse of the Southern Conference for Human
Welfare and a veteran Communist fronter with a record dating back to
the thirties, was Aubrey Williams of Montgomery, Alabama. He showed
up at the Houston Conference to act as Chairman at its night session.
Williams will be remembered as the principal speaker at the YoWlg
Communist League's "Berean Conference," as being affiliated with the
Communist Party's Peace Oflensives, the Stockholm Appeal, the MidCentury
Conference for Peace in 1951 and a racial deviate of long
standing.
Six of the eleven Houston Conference officers are reported to have
been affiliated with Communist front _organizations or movements.
These include, aside from Doffibrowski, Bishop S. L. Greene and Jolm
Wesley Dobbs of Atlanta, Ga.; Rev. J oseph Barth of F lorida; Rev. W.
H. Jernagin of Washington and Lula B. White, colored, Houston.
Literature sold or given away over the counte;.· during the Houston
Conference included pamphlets by the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People, P ublic Affairs pamphlets and the
"Southern School News," a publication financed by the Ford Foundation,
staffed almost solidly by racial deviates and which highly amused
informed persons by recently declating itself an "unbiased objective
and fact-finding" service to give factual information on segregation.
Only one member of the Houston School Board showed up at the
Conference. She was Mrs. A. S. Vandervoort, bell-wether for the leftwing
majority on the Board to push "integration." She said it was the
"thinking" of the Board that "integration" should begin in the elementary
grades. The arrangement, so far as the majority of "liberal '' members
of the Board of Education is concerned, would have no personal
connotation and would be strictly academic since they have no children
in the Houston schools to be ''integrated.''
Just as "a leopard cannot change its spots nor the Ethiope his
skin," neither can an old Communist front hide its identity even though
it changes its name, adds some new faces and waves a different banner.
There were few intelligent, alert and informed persons who were
fooled by the new facade presented by the Southwestern Regional Conference
on Integration and who did not recognize in it the distinterred
and revived corpse of the old Southern Conference for Human Welfare.
Senate Asked to Probe Subversive
Influence Behind the Court's Decision
At long last, a step has been
taken in the United States Senate
toward an investigation of the Supreme
Court's unconstitutional decision
on segregation.
Constitution has not made any attempt
heretofore to investigate the
shady decision of the Court and
the subversive influences under
which it acted.
After al1, the Senate of the
United States is the highest investigating
body in this country
and when it fails to function, the
citizens have no recourse against
the foreign element of internationalists,
one-worlders, Communists
and racial deviates who obviously
dictated the Court's decision.
From a subscriber at Dallas: "I
am. so glad you had your picture
in the paper. Nolo I will be able
to recognize you wl1en, and if, we
meet in Siberia."
Senator James 0. Eastland of
Mississippi asked for such an investigation,
and charged at the
same time that Communist front
groups had influenced the Court
in this decision. The senator claimed
that the Court's unanimous decision
was "based solely on psychological,
sociological and anthropological
considerations" and
not on law.
To many Americans, it has
seemed incredible that this great
body elected to represent the American
people, safeguard their institutions
and uphold the written

investigation, was Gunnar Myrdal

Refreshing Example of
Southern Statesmallship
The Honorable John C. Hart,
member of the South Carolina
legislature has always been regarded
as a friend of labor and
has voted consistently to advance
the cause of the working man in
legislation before that body.
He does not, however, go along
with the Unions in efforts to ram
anti-segregation down the throats
of Southerners and make them
like it. V/hen George Meany, president
of American Federation of
Labor went on record in favor of
barring Federal school aid to
South Carolina and other States
who "evade the Supreme Court's
anti-segregation ruling" Representative
Hart wrote him as fol ..
lows:
"Through meddling in racial matters
which are none ol your business,
and is as from labor matters
as is religion, embarrass those
who try to help the working people
in the South. It is dilficult to believe
that labor leaders are so stupid as to
not realize their asinine actions when
they interfere in Southern racial affairs.
At times, I wonder whether you
are seriously interested in the southern
working people as your foolish

rather the American brand.
While Soviet leaders advocate and
promote this kind of behavior on the

the plan to destroy private industry
in this country, they would tolerate a

took them to lift their tommy guns

A press release by the National
Council of Churches says that eightyeight
Protestants, Catholics and members
of a minority group have got-ten
together and launched a movement
"for the development of human
progress and international peace."
To bring this about they have set up
a six-point program in which they call
on Americans for "a greater sharing
of their God-given abundance and
potential productivity with other
peoples of the world." (In other
words we should not only give away
what we have but what we hope to
have.)

freer international trade, expanded
technical assistance programs of the
United Nations, and many other requests
having nothing on e<>rth to
do with religion, they make this purely
Socialistic pronouncement:
"In a moral universe, the continued
prosperity of one nation can
only be justified by its faithful and
courageous efforts to make comparable
abundance available to all."
Karl Marx said the same thing a
long time ago, except that he was no
hypocrite and did not attempt to
disguise his depraved political beliefs
as Christian doctrine.
The National Council of Churches
has not been, and will not be, cited
as a Communist front because we
don't have that kind of backbone in
Washington, but there are few groups
or organizations in this country who,
with a few sharp political leaders and
millions of stupid, weasel-brained followers,
arc doing more to break down

Socialist State, than this

Issues Committee organized some
time ago to promote National Socialism
in this country, has folded

Been Hanged for Treason
If there are those who do not believe that patriotism, loyalty and
national pride has been largely stamped out in this country, through
more than two decades of anti-American propaganda, they should read
some of the proposals seriously made for amending the United Nations
Charter.
There are scores of organized groups submitting recommendations
for adoption in 1956 by the UN which Alger Hiss and his masters would
ne\·er have dreamed of suggesting when they launched this totalitarian
super-state at San Francisco in 1945.
Plans to reduce the United States to the · level of a slave state and
the American people to the status of Russian serfs which were set in
motion at the London and Stockholm meetings of World Federalists are
not surprising for those groups are part of the conspiracy against the
American Rep~blic.
But for Americans to willingly fall in with such conspirators and
give aid to a plot which would nullify the American Constitution including
the Bill of Rights, renounce the Declaration of Independence
and make a mockery of the Statue of Liberty, is beyond the power of
patriotic Americans to comprehend.
Out of all those who are guilty of conniving with the enemies of
this country to bring about its downfall, one case will serve to make
the point.
The American Unitarian Associalion, for '''hom the Rev. Donald
Harrington, pastor of the Community Church of New York is spokesman,
has made suggestions for amending the U. N. Charter which, j(
they had not carried this minister's signature, might have been mis·
taken for recommendations originating in Moscow, so thoroughly do
they propose to dismantle the American Republic.
The Unitarians, according to the Rev. Harrington, want to see the
Uniled Nations converted into an outright World Government with
absolute authority over all nations, including the United States. The
United Nations, this so-called minister of the Gospel insists, should be
based upon law sustained by "collective force with authority to disarm
all nations" and the establishment of "world law'' with complete jurisdiction
over each individual in the member nations.
A United Nations Police Force with power to compel all nations
to disarm and a "world judicial system" for the trial of orrenders
against international laws is a further demand of the Unitarians who
obviously see no menace in an International Gestapo whose representatives
may knock on an American door at midnight, tap a citizen on the
shoulder amt·haul him off to be tried by an International Court across
the world for a real or imaginary crime.
In our opinion, suggestions for abolishing the United States and
transferring its sovereignty to a World Government constitute treason
against this country and those who make such proposals should be
dealt with accordingly.
The bill sets forth the things
which would be prohibited as "exciting
hostility" in these words:
"Every letter, writing, card, pamphlet,
circular, book, notice or
other communication intended ...
to incite hatred, hostility, ill-will,
contempt, or aversion among individuals
solely by reason of diHerences
in race, color, religion or national
origin of such individuals
... is hereby declared to be nonmailable
matter and shall not bt!
conveyed in the mails or delivered
from any post office or by any letter
carrier."
In other words, the only thin~
we could send through the mails
would be lovE' and kisses.
While it would be an insult
to your Congressman to assume
that he would vote for it, just to
be safe, it might not be a bad
idea to put a bug in his ear. Con·
gressmen have been known to
cast their ballot for some odd legislation.
The bill was probably written
by those groups who are capable
of writing a bill like this. It was
introduced in Congress by Charles
C. Diggs, Congressman from Michigan.
Diggs is a Negro, incidentally.
When a private employer fi11ds
that his bookkeeper is stealh1g
money out of the cash register and
r:~iving it to blondes, he can fire
him and have him arrested for
theft. When he finds that his npresentatives
in Washington are
confiscating his tax money and
giving it to bums in Europe, 11e
can't do a thing and is stuck with
a dishonest public sen..·ant whose
salary he helps to pay.

thing spread in part by the American
Bar Association" which approved
adoption of the Bricker
amendment to protect our nation·

There is one thing of which Mrs.
Roosevelt may be assured and in
which she may take consolation
and that is that nobody in his
right mind wi11 ever accuse her
of ''super-patriotism" for her country.

was aU for the welfare and
security of people across the ocean.
Senator George is carrying the ball
for the internationalists more and
-more. much to the sorrow and disgust
of his long·time admirers and
friends.
THE SOUTHERN CONSERVATIVE
Has anybody heard any noise in Washington lately that is reminiscent
of the howls which echoed to high heaven a little ove1· a year ago
while dirty Communist rats were still being flushed out of the army,
government agencies, universities and defense plant~?
And does anybody in his right mind interpret this silence and inaction
as indication that Moscow called off the dogs on the day that
Senator Joe McCarthy was ''censured"?
Is any American so stupid as to believe that saboteurs at Fort
Monmouth, for instance, automatically quit stealing military secrets
when they suddenly discovered they had defenders in high places?
And is any human so naive as to think that the swarm of Soviet
sympathizers so thickly clustered in assorted sensitive and strategic
agencies of government and in educational institutions suddenly reformed
and became loyal Americans when the voice of a giant was
stilled by the yelping pigmy pack in the Senate who were hell-bent on
heading off investigations of traitors betraying the American Republic?
The answer to all these questions, we believe, is no!
It is true that there's an aura of serenity hanging over--the hearing
rooms of investigating committees these days; there's a cloying and
strangling form of peace which can only be gained through appeasement
permeating the throne-room of advisers to the high and the mighty
and there's a smile of contentment on the faces of Americans for Democratic
Action and the editors of the Daily Worker.
But the same evil contingent of enemy agents who marched in
endless processions before the McCarthy, Jenner and Velde Committees
and who cravenly covered their cow3:rdly hides with the Fifth
Amendment to conceal their acts of treason against their country. are
6till around and still active and we mustn't let any one kid us about
that.
It is only that they are now able to operate more quietly and carry
ori their nefarious activities more effectively since alert sentries have
been taken off duty without replacement by other guards.
That the Senate "censure" fiasco was a frame-up against the Wisconsin
senator in order to halt investigation of Communists and sub·
versives in high places has been so well established that it is no longer
denied even by the participants in the conspiracy.
The desired results were accomplished but it is now time for the
American people to evaluate the situation, look cold·blooded facts in. the
face and decide what it cost them in safety when their elected leaders
deliberately sacrificed the national security on the altar of personal
jealousy, hatred and malice.
Flanders, Watkins,- Americans for Democratic Action, the Committee
for an Effective Congress, the Daily Worker and Moscow won
out in the "censure" movement in the Senate but to what extent did
this "victory" imperil the safety and security of the nation and the
American people?
To aid them in arriving at an intelligent conclusion they have only
to consider this plain simple fact of history: Eighteen months ago, the
exposure of spies and subversives was being prosecuted with firmness
and vigor. Today, not an audible official voice is being raised against
these enemy agents who would overthrow the American form of go\·ernment.
June, 1955
To have exposed the methods employed
in "brainwashing" Americans
to soften them up toward one·world
government and international Communism
just at that time might have
been embarrassing to the visitL.ng
propagandists, and thell" hosts.
Sarnoff Uses a Lot of
Words to Say Nothing
The much-touted program of General
David Sarnoff for combatting
Communism and bringing an end to
the cold war, and which has been
heralded by Senator Lyndon Johnson
and others as a startling innovation
in the way of a peace plan, was pub·
Jished in full in the Congressional
Record of May 11.
Sarnoff's proposal differs little !rom
others before it except in length. Millions
of words have been throWJL together
in a document which says
nothing. Boiled down, it urges more
help and encouragement to those behind
the Iron Curtain through an enlarged
program on the Voice of America,
a project which has been bleeding
American taxpayers for years in
the dissemination of a lot o! tripe
prepared by lefl·wingers and which
in no sense represents the thinking
o!real Americans.
An effective, common-sense and
practical plan for combatting Communism
has been suggested many
times by Senator Joseph R. ?.lcCarthy,
Senator George Malone and others
which would get the job done immediately
and that is to cut off every
dollar to any country who trades with
Russia and Red China.
That's all that would be necessary
to bring Communists to their knees
but that has been rejected because
any suggestion based on common
sense is always vetoed by those in
authority.
A sixty·year-old woman in
Houston was injured and had to
be taken to the hospital recently

she was riding swerved sharply

Friends Service Committee
Employs New Tactics
The American Friends Service
Committee has completed its annual
tour of Texas and it was interesting
to note that after some unhappy experience
in this state on previous
visits, the "Friends" became rather
cagey and developed new tactics.
There are very few speakers sent
out by this group that do not have
alonglistofcitationsforafflliatlons
with Communist fronts, although the
organization itself has never been
cited probably for the simple reason
that Congressional Committees do not
cite those who. operate under the
shield of religious activities, as a rule.
During the recent trip to Texas, it
was observed that speakers who have
been accused publicly of Communist
front affiliation were noticeably
absent from their program. "Not .that
tj1ey were not of the same mind as
those who have been cited for they
probably are or else they would not
be speaking under the sponsorship of
the Friends Service Committee. No
amount of whitewash can conceal the
fact that the-cause of Socialism has
been given a strong impetus by that
group, through the speakers who appear
on its programs.
To assume otherwise is to acknowledge

if it were not just a temporary arrangement.
Considering the gullibility and stupidity
of some editorial writers for
Jarge dailies, it is not surprising that
the American people as a whole have
1ittle or no accurate information
about subversion and organized movements
to completely abolish American
institutions and customs in favor of
totalitarian ideology.
Many of these papers, for instance,
have recently fallen for the line about
UNESCO being "exonerated" and b•ing
given "a clean bill of health" because
some brainwashed committee
reached this decision.
UNESCO is exactly what the American
Legion said it was at first"
determined plotters who wish to destroy
our way of life, capture our
wealth and enslave out people."
The objectives of this outfit are
clearly set forth in its literature written
in language that can't be misunderstood.
When any group or organization
changes its opinion of this atheistic
and anti-American outfit, it is no
indication that UNESCO has reformed
but proof that such group or organization
has merely succumbed to
UNESCO propaganda.
Attempt Made to Wreck
Our Immigration Law
Proposals for• wrecking many of
the security provisions of the McCarran-
Walter Act, the immigration law
which was passed after five years of
conscientious study of the subject,
have been sent to Congress by President
Eisenhower
Congressman Francis E. Walter of
Pennsylvania who, with the late Sen-ator
McCarran is author of the law,
will apparently oppose the White
limtse.. recommendations all down the
line, since he immediately referred
to them as part of the general effort
being made "in some quarters to
discredit the basic immigration law
of the United States."
The proposals from the White
House, which were obviously based
on data prepared by Franklin D.
Roosevelt who constantly advocated
letting down the bars to European undesirables
during his long stay in the
White House, were described in the
preamble as based on a "great humanitarian
effort for relief of tragic victims
of the post-war world."
The suggested changes requested by
the President would revise the law so
tbat unused categories of eligibility
with specific numbers alloted to each
category, could ·be used by others
when these specific categories did not
have enough applicants to fill them.
As an illustration these unfilled categories
might be used to admit orphans
on a worldwide basis, the President
said.
Congressman \Valter, however. immediately

Two Good Americans
Decide to Team Up
Two grand Americans were
welded into a family unit when
Mary Elizabeth Robey of Tulsa
and John Howland Snow of New
York were married recently.
Mrs. Robey was active in ProAmerica
and Mr. Snow is well
known throughout the country as
a lecturer and author. With the
late Congressman Paul Shafer of
Michigan, he was co-author of
"Turning of the Tides" a book
widely popular in educational circles
and used as a text-book of
information concerning Communist
infiltration of the American
educational system.
John Snow is what may be
termed a citizen of the world in
its higher meaning and not to be
confused in any way with the designation
as it applies to· current
one-worlders and internationalists.
He has traveled all over the
world and lived abroad for many
years where he acquired firsthand
knowledge of foreign government
procedure, ideologies and
propaganda methods and other
valuable informatiort' on whi'ch he
bases his brilliant lectures and
which strengthened his opposition
to entangling alliances of his own
country with foreign Socialist
states.
We wish them much happiness.
The Sheriff of Bexar County,
Texas, announced at San Antonio
that he is going to install televis-
~ ion in the county jail as he believes
it will have a good effect
on prisoners and influence them
not to commit crime when they
get out. Maybe so, but many times
it has the opposite effect on us.
Some of the programs make us
want to go out and commit a crime
-preferably against the sponsor.

London write in glowing terms 6f
England's growing prosperity and

treasury. And the U. S. Treasury
is almost $280,000,000,000 in the
red because we keep shoveling
millions to foreign countries, including
England. No wonder the
British regard us as fools.
"When you tell the government:

You have elected a rendezvoM

Marjorie Shearon, Washington,
D. C.
In view of the highly organized
and integrated conspiracy against
the United States designed to turn
it into a totalitarian state, and
which any person with minimum
intelligence realizes does exist,
there are certain rules that must
be followed. Good Americans will
not attend movies produced or
acted by Hollywood Reds. They
will protest to the station agninst
any television or radio program
of anti - American propaganda.
They will refuse to attend a church
where the minister preaches the
social gospel and advocates mixing
the races and above all they
will not contribute any money to
such churches.
THE SOUTHERN CONSERVATIVE
Some Interesting Sidelights on
High Society in Washington D.C.
There was quite a lot said in the press about the failure of highly
respected and honorable members of the United States Senate to re·
ceive invitations to exclusive White House Social functions. In fact,
pink press reporters have played these "snubs" up in their smear
tactics against those who were the recipients of such slights.
There has been practically no publicity, howe\·er, about who IS
getting bids to inner-circle 'White House Parties these days.
As a matter of fact, so carefully has the truth about the amazing
and unbelievable new social code of the Whitz House, together with its
guest list, bzen withheld from the voters in the hinterland that such information
practically ranks along with such top-secret and classified
documents as the records in the Peress case.
The editors of one publication, however, unable to refrain (rom
boasting, have not been so concerned over voter reaction or popular
revulsion, and have told all.
This is a publication called ''Ebony" and is a magazine published
by and for Negroes ~ith a wide circulation in this and other countries.
In a revea1ing editorial with a four-column head titled "Alter Protocol
to Admit Negroes to High Society," the editor tells how ''under a
new social order" a Negro man has been selected to check and screen
names of persons who are to be favored with invitations to social functions
-at the Executive Mansion on Pennsylvania Avenue. Although
named as an "assistant" in such soCial matters, the editorial intimates
that much is left to the discretion of this colored man whom it calls
"Mr. Washington."
The editorial explains that while Negroes are invited to all functions
according to their· rank, there are occasions when there are not
enough of them holding high-rahking jobs to have full representation.
In this case, the editorial says, "rules of protocol are broken and Negroes
are admitted to functions for which. AS WHITE PEOPLE, THEY
WOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED." (Emphasis ours).
It is pointed out that another responsibility of "Mr. Washington"
is to pair off unattached guests for specific parties. To illustrate the
point, the editorial points out, that at a White House dinner party
some time ago a Negro woman named Carmel Marr was assigned a
white Commissioner of Commerce as her dinner companion. "On another
occasion 'Mr. Washington' discovered his dinner mate was a
Southerner," continues the editorial and "I've often wondered if she
knew I was a Negro," he is quoted as saying. "Mr. Washington" is
quoted in the editorial as having said that at one White House dinner,
a "male connoisseur of women" picked four Negro women as "the
most beautilully gowned women present" and adds gleefully: '!the first
white woman picked was fifth."
In another editorial, it tells of Negro guests in the White House
sleeping in the Lincoln Room and being put up in Blair House and concludes
with this paragraph: ''Negroes are now invited not only to
large receptions, but also to private cocktail parties, formal dinners,
buffet suppers and after-the-ball gatherings." During a "social season"
approximately five hundred Negroes are the recipient of invitations
to White House affairs the editorial concluded.
Woman Member ofT ex as Senate
Is Given Its Highest Honor
Mrs. Neveille H. Colson, Senator
from Texas' Fifth district and
whose home is in Navasota, was
the recipient of the h ighest honor
which the Senate can bestow when
she recently became the second
woman in history to be named
President Pro Tem of that body.
Beautiful, talented and with a
mind which operates like a steel
trap, Mrs. Colson has served sevw
enteen years in the Texas legislature,
first as a member of the
House and later in the Senate, and
is the only membe!' of her sex
serving in that capacity.
As fresident Pro Tern of the
Senate, Mrs. Colson will act as
Governor in the event the governor
and lieutenant-governor are
absent from the state.
With a thorough understanding
of the fundamentals of government,
Mrs. Colson is that rare type
of woman lawmaker who is not out
to reform the world or clutter up
the statute books with crack-pot
social experiments but rather to
contribute her part toward the enactment
of sound legislation which
advances the best interests of all
the people ol her native state.
An Honest Confession
Is Good for the Soul
The ultimate objective of the
CIO was set forth clearly by Ro·
bert Minor at the time the Political
Action Committee of CIO
was set up in 1948.
Incidentally, Minor was one
of the founders of the Communist
Party in the United StateS.
Regarding the future aimS of
PAC Minor said:
HWe want the labor movement
to obtain physical and
ideological domination of this
country. By physical control, we
mean the governing power-the
power to make decisions and
enforce them; the power to direct
any Army and Navy; the
power to control industry; the
power to say who shall be in
jail and who shall be out; in
other words, political power.
And there is no political power
except complete political power."
One-Worlders Come to
The Bat in Florida
A bill was introduced in the Flor~
ida Legislature at its recent session
which was captioned an act "to prohibit
the favorable teaching or presentation
of one-world government,
Socialism, Communism or any othel'
anti-American doctrines in the schools
and colleges in the State of Florida."
This was a plain statement of intent
simply to protect the American Republic
from anti-American doctrines
which seek to destroy it.
It passed the Florida Senate by a
vote of 29 to 7 but was killed in the
House committee by the Florida
School lobby, assisted by the" Governor
of that State, LeRoy Collins, wh()
happens to be a member of the United
World Federalists
Don't tell us this one-world conspiracy
is not organized to the last
degree when it can reach clear across
the country and put its forces in operation
to kill off a measure designed
simply to prevent the infiltrati6n of
American schools and colleges with
anti-American propaganda.
Something Better
(From Odessa, Texas, American)
The Republican Party, thro\lgh one
of its top level spokesmen, has virtu·
ally admitted that it is impotent. VicePresident
Richard Nixon has announ4
ced that the GOP cannot win in 1956
without Dwight Eisenhower as its
presidential candidate. This is deplorable
news.
If it were true, it would mean that
the Republican forces are so completely
geared to the strong man concept
of government, that defeat looms if a
man of greater ability and dedication
to principle were to put in an <~ppear-
Actually this is the dictator theory.
"Our leader" i s the only man who can
handle the situation. This Is in violation
of the American principles ot
representative government.
·we cannot share Mr. Nixon's
gloomy foreboding. To us, the GOP
would look like a better bet if it
would nominate someone as a candidate
who had not already trafficked
with the internationalists, propounded
a who!~ series of costly collectivist
schemes, and generally gone back on
its platform and campaign pledges.
The only segment of the Republican
Party with vigor and fight left in it,
is the Right Wing which wants to return
to constitutional government.
American independence and the heritage
of free men, bequeathed us by
our founding patriots. The Dewey
school of joining up with the New
Deal-Fair Deal policies in order to
enlist Democratic support is as ancient
as compromise, and as unprincipled
as Benedict Arnold. Further,
it is so old, it's tired.
The . usefulness of the Republicans
will be completely nullified if they
insist on propounding the same type
of universal social experimentation
advocated by their predecessors.
What the country needs is a change
from this socialist trend. This is what
Eisenhower promised, as a crusade
when he ran for office in 1052, But
the crusade petered out once the victor
changed his address to Washington,
D. C. The two-party system,
which virtually guarantees change, is
being sacrificed for the "we must win
at any cost" philosophy.
There is a powerful Right Wing In
the Democratic Party, also, which is
more to be relied upon than the fluctuating
fanatics who inhibit the cast.
ern seaboard and whose political beliefs
can be summed up in the phrase:
"Tax, tax, tax; spend, spend, spend;
elect, elect, elect."
Besides, the important thing is the
freedom of the country, and not the
name of the political party in power.
Whichever party grasps this concept
and adheres unflinchingly to it, will
carry the day. Eisenhower is not only
not the indispensible man; he will
become a liability to Republicans If
they insist on using him. The people
want something better than his policies.
