THE SOUTHERN CONSERVATIVE -To Plead for a Return of Constitutional Government-
Vol. 10 FORT WORTH, TEXAS, MARCH, 1959 No. 3
United States Senate Reflects Rise
And Fall Of American Statesmanship
American Type Communism Drives Respected
Citizen From The Land Of His Birth
The last sad chapter in the sordid saga of Communism-American
style-as applied to Stanley Yankus, respected farmer of Dowagiac,
Michigan, has been written.
Mr. Yankus is selling his 100-acre poultry farm and moving his family
to Adelaide, Australia, where he hopes to enjoy the freedom which
once prevailed in the United States, but which has now been taken away
from the American people.
for years for the simple right to work his land,
debts and support his family in the tradition
---""--..a.w~...a.O ..... ..._..,_....,,..,. since the beginning of the Republic.
Bu.t he reckohed without the Cossacks in the Agricultural Adjustment
Administration in Washington, D.C., who hovered over his farm
like vUltures and who finally closed in and devoured him.
Mr. Yankus never signed up with the wheat program framed by
politicians in Washington who never farmed an acre, ploughed a furrow,
nor milked a cow in their lives and who acquired their views on "collective
farming" from the writings of Karl Marx who, from the quiet
confines of the grave, posthumously fathered the agricultural program
which now disgraces the statutes of the American Congress.
He never accepted any subsidies under this collectivist program
either and by all the rules of justice, common sense and fair play was
exempt from its provisions.
But the Washington Commissars figured otherwise and insisted on
dictating how much wheat this Michigan farmer could plant regardless
ot whether or not the amount allotted him was sufficient to feed his
poultry from which he produced 52,000 dozen eggs per year to be mar·
keted under our alleged American Free Enterprise System.
They garnisheed his bank account, levied fines against him and
hounded him as if he were a common criminal until he was financially
ruined and could no longer fight back against the entrenched bureaucrats
in Washington backed by millions of dollars of taxpayers' money in their
campaign for collective farming in the United States.
So Mr. Yankus has thrown in the towel and is moving to Australia.
The prayers of all good Americans will go with him to his new home
In a far-off land along with the hope that he may hereafter escape the
persecution which attended him in his attempts to make an honest living
from the soil In the land of his birth.
It there is an iota of honesty, fairness and integrity left in the Con·
gress of the United States, its members will not only repeal this Kremlininspired
farm program but they will make financial restitution to this
honorable, hard·working American who is being driven out of his country
by their blundering, ineptitude and stupidity.
Meantime, as Mr. Yankus and his family embark on their sad and
lonely journey to their new home across the vast Pacific, he will be forgiven
if he recalls with bitterness in his heart that the American Republic
was founded by colonists who left England to escape similar tyranny by
King George and who risked the terrors and unc~rtainty of a new world
In order that they might live forever under the blessed banner of freedom
and enjoy the right to work and earn their living without interference
by despotic rulers.
Once the Senate of the Unitl!d States was universally
regarded as the greatest and most incorruptible deliberative
body on earth. Adhering to the immortal concept
that principles are eternal and never change,
members of that exalted Chamber did not adjust their
convictions to suit the expediency of the moment, sur·
render their beliefs under p.olitical pressure nor swap
their votes for the approval of organh:ed minority
groups. In other days !he Senate stood for cautious,
careful and time-tested legislotive oction which emb<>
died the fullest measure of prudence, wisdom and
foresight which it is possible for devoted public servants
ri ~ o their country'• security, solvency ond
general well-being. Within Its hallowed walls, the nat
ion's problems were met and resolved by ded icated
statesmen whose first a nd foremost obioctive was to
preser·ve, at all costs, the priceless sovereignty, rights
and freedoms which were the legacy of American citizens
from those who had given their all to the founding
of a motchless Republic. The Senate was the nation's
anchor in times of storm, stress and strain and its
checkrein against the usurpation of power by other
arms of the Federal government and the brake which
halted 111-consider .. d and unwise legislation originating
in the House. Todt!y the most sickening evidence of
political degeneracy and natiunal decay is reflected on
the floor of the Senate where an appalling number of
weak, irresolute and low-grade politicians switch their
views and trade their votes as readily as a movie actress
sheds her husband. In contrast to vast numbers in that
once illustrious body who exacted tribute from all the
world far their probity, stability and rectitude, an overwhelming
majority of its members now command about
the same measure of confidence and popular respect
that is accorded the promoters of a floating crap game.
The dying ~ords of the American Revolutionary General, Nathan
Hale, reflected this wish: "I only regret that I have but one life to lose
for my country." Patrick Henry's dedication to the cause of freedom was
expressed in this phrase which has rung down through the corridors of
time: "I know not what course others may take but as for me, give me
liberty or give me death," and the early history of the American Republic
was shot through with dedicated statesmanship, loyal service and patriotic
action on the part of its leaders which was without precedent and
beyond compare.
No American institution has ever been a more impregnable fortress
and citadel of freedom in preserving the traditions and way of life of the
American people and in upholding Constitutional Government, or has
more jealously guarded the inherited rights and sovereignty of the citizens
ot the Republic than has the United States Senate in days that are gone.

The Highlander Folk School at
Monteagle, Tennessee, which has
been a center of controversy since
it was founded in 1932, is finally
going to be officially investigated.
We are informed by those who
keep up with such things that Red
Foley, the star of Jubilee USA,
country music on television each
Saturday night, is the richest performer
in the entertainment world.
Perhaps it should be explained to the world that a majority of the
members of the Congress of the United States are not crazy. They just
act like they are.
One of the worst pieces of legislative folly in human history was
witnessed when they reached out nearly to the North Pole and annexed
the barren and ice-locked terri~ci·v of Alasl~a as an American State.
But that was statesmGnly b'ehavior of an exalted order compared
to the supreme madne£s wtlich has laid hold of them now and which
motivates them in their determination to reach out half way across the
ocean and bring in an Ori ~ntal area largely populated by Asiatic Communists
as another unit or the American family of States.
Claims that the school is a breeding
ground for subversives will be
looked into by a committee of the
Tennessee Legislature, an action
which was authorized in a resolution
passed overwhelmingly in
both Houses.
• If this is true, it proves that a
lot of Americans still have wholesome
and simple tastes as against
those who go for the trashy programs
with which television sched~
ules are surfeited.
Perhaps the most ch~ritable conclusion to be reached in excusing
their un!:oeakable action!' 10 the matter is that most of them are merely
pawns of International Planners and they don't realize that they are

This country does not need to import Harry Bridges' horde of Hawaiian

is needed, we point to the strong sentiment for the annexation of
Hawaii which un~American propaganda forces have built up in both
Houses of the American Congress.

After all, there's always the Supreme
Court.
UNITED STATES SENATE IConHnued from Page II
In this editorial we do not mean to imply that there are not great,
good and able men in the Senate today because there are, but they are
greatly outnumbered. In recent years there have been scores of men
whose loyalty, integrity and adherence to the principles of Constitutional
Government could not be challenged.
It was a coalition of such men from both major parties who, during
the Roosevelt and Truman administrations, kept this nation from becoming
a total-rather than a partial-Collectivist State.
Since that time their ranks have been tragically thinned by death,
defeat and disgust, and by this we mean that some of them have been
mowed down by the grim reaper, others were turned back at the ballot
box and still others retired out of contempt for their colleagues' failure
to live up to their oath to uphold the Constitution and defend the American
Republic against its enemies at home and abroad.
Generally speaking, however, the debility, degeneracy and disinte·
gration of the United States Senate first set in with the passage of the
Seventeenth Amendment to the Constitution which permitted popular
election of its members and as this action was taken at a time when
International Socialism first began creeping into American politics, it was
inevitable, perhaps, that down-grading of quality and lowering of standards
on the part of candidates for the Senate should result.
The Senate was originally set up by the founders of the Republic as
a sort of balance wheel or stabilizer against injudicious and unwise legislation
by the House of Representatives and as an instrument to preserve
and perpetuate the new-found freedom under which they hoped and believed
that American citizens would abide forever as a result of the
break-away from the tyranny of hated English kings.
It was figured that the members of the Lower House, who are elected
according to the population of a State, might, because of sheer numbers,
become victims of popular political whims of the moment and be swayed
by partisan considerations of powerfu~ voting blocs to ~n exten~ that
would disqualify them from representmg sound, responstble sentiment
of the nation as a whole.
(We do not believe, however, that the found~n~ fa_thers _even in their
most pessimistic and cautious moments of anttctpatmg pttfalls of th~
future, were able to look ahead and visualize some of the sor~ specimens
of humanity who today strut the floor of the House ~htle proposing
legislation which must make early-day statesmen wnggle and
squirm and turn over in their graves.)
At any rate, the Senate was given a mandate to act as ~ sort of
supervisor of legislative enactments by the Lower House whtch cc:mld
only become effective with the Senate's approval and concurrence. Smce
there were to be only two senators from each State, it was believed that
the best available human material would be u~ilized in filli~g ~hese positions
of trust and that American statesmanship would attam tts fullest
flower on the floor of the United States Senate. . .

Du;~~g that period,· the prestige of the Senate was jealously upheld
by the ctttzens of ~he sever~l States who sent only their ablest, best j0 ..
formed and most mcorrupttble statesmen to serve as their spokesmen
in the nation's top legislative assembly.
Today, sadly, that is not true. Seat after seat in tho.t vast auditorium
is occupied by low-grade politicians who landed in that soft job
because they were unable to make a living in competitive fields which
offered comparable compensation and because they were able to Sweet·
talk support from stupid and unthinking electorates by the simple expedient
of promising the voters everything under the sun which could
be purchased with taxpayers' money.

the ttme, energy and effort of its members and which have no moral
or Constitutional right to a place on the legislative calendar of an
American lawmaking body.
. For instance, where men of giant intellect once pondered such
m1ghty problems as the protection of American industry, preservation
of the Rights of the Sovereign States and the peril of American intervention
in foreign wars, mental midgets now wrestle and grope with such
puny political and vote·getting considerations as paying farmers for not
planting crops, compensating laborers for not working and raising the
social status and improving housing conditions of winos in Skid Row.
Other and more concrete evidence that the United States Senate
is at its lowest achievement level in history is the fact that this nation
is hopelessly floundering in debt, racial relations are more strained than
at any time since Reconstruction Days and the dark clouds of war loom
all over the world. And because weak leaders are the pallbearers of
human liberty, the traditional rights and freedoms of the American people
are fast drifting toward oblivion.
Every two years one-third of the membership of the Senate comes
up for re-election and it is on those occasions when American voters
could clean out the dead wood and lift that body to the lofty heights It
once enjoyed. With proper and organized effort, they could induce men
of principle, of conviction and of integrity to offer themselves for this
service and then vote them into office.
The Senate of the United States is Constitutionally the most powerful
weapon of restraint in the American system and if, once again, its
members should be those who are firm and unyielding in their convictions,
possessed of undivided loyalty to this country and concerned pri·
marily, not in the welfare of a1ien peoples, but in the safety, security and
perpetuation of this Christian Republic, we could afford to let Marxism
continue to sway the ~ two other branches of Government and the two
major political parties-and this nation would still survive.
It was especially the desire of those who wr~te the Constitution,
and under whose glorious provisions a vast emptre was lat~r to be
carved that future lawmakers would steer as far away as posstble from
the co~cepts of the out-worn, decadent and patern~listic ~?vernments of
Europe in framing legislation unde~. which Am~nc~n ~1t1~ens were to
live and operate their economic, pohttcal and soctal mstttutJO~S.
For approximately a century and a half these exalted tdeals were
carried out and although-the institution being human-there were oc-
In summation, it is within the province of the United States Senate
either to revive, restore and reactivate surrendered principles just as the
chisel of a sculptor brings forth a spirit from the rock, to or provide the
epitaph which the hand of time will write on the tombstone of a dead
Republic.

Christianity Is Found Without
Defenders In Its Hour Of Need
Communists Not Only Refuse To
Pay U.S. Debt But Deny They Owe It
Following a somewhat belated
disclosure that professors in the
~~~~~!i~d 0~r;~~~~~;r:co~¥i~~~~
their classes at religion as ignorant
superstition, members ot the Texas
Legislature introduced a bill which
would require the faculty at Statesupported
colleges to take a religious
loyalty oath.
The ink was hardly dry on the
measure when violent opposition
to the bill from influential sources
developed.
This opposition did not c o m e
from actual card-carrying Communists,
as might be supposed. That
element remained strangely quiet,
possibly on the assumption that
more powerful and effective friendly
forces who always come to the
rescue would not fail them in this
f n s t a n c e, and their deductions
proved correct.
The opposition to the religious
loyalty oath designed to keep atheIsm
from being taught in State ed~
ucational institutions came from
so-called Ministers of the Gospel
who would normally be regarded
as staunch advocates or Christianity
and believers in the Gospel
ot Jesus Christ.
that any teacher who propounds
modern interpretation of the Bible
might justly be accused of atheism
because he would be "shaking
childhood beliefs of the student."
It was suggested that faith in educators
was sufficient and is "more
effective than oaths."
These were the views of representatives
of five of the large Protestant
churches in one Texas city
and since religious thinking is now
largely collective and is dictated
by the National Council of Churches
whose. leadership is strongly opposed
to loyalty oaths of all types,
it is predicted that similar sentiment
will be found to be prevalent
among religious leaders in other
Texas cities and that the bill will
be defeated.
It is significant that the modern
ministers who have surrendered
their sacred role as defenders of
the Christian faith and enlisted in
the fight for the establishment of
Marxisin in the United States acquired,
in the transition, a tremendous
amount of political strength
and their combined influence is regarded
as capable of defeating this
and similar legislation not only in
Texas but in any S t ate in the
Union.
Under the circumstances, it is
expected that professors at the
University of Texas will continue
to instill their godless philosophy
in the plastic minds of immature
tudents without ear. .of int rfer·
ence by the religious leaders of the
State.
It develops t h a t the Russians
have not only no intention of paying
back the billions"of dollars they
owe us. but they even deny that
they owe us a cent.
This information was carried in
a press dispatch from Washington
on February 21.
Back in the '40's when this country
was engaged in World War II
and the Communists were our alleged
friends and allies, the New
Deal administration in power made
"loans" to the Bolsheviks of. vast
sums, the exact amount of which
may never be known to the taxpayers
who furnished the money.
Besides the cash there was the
$263,000,000 worth of steam and
hydro-electric plants, $65,000,000
worth of chemic a l equipment,
$900,000,000 worth of copper and
other strategic supplies given to
the Communists by Harry Hopkins
who held no elective position but
who seemed to have unlimited authority
to dispose of our war materials.
According to Undersecretary of
State Dillon, the United States had
offered to settle for $2,600,000,000
and seven or eight years ago the
Communists offered to compromise
by paying us $300,000,000.
Then, apparently, the matter was
dropped.
In a closed·door session ot the
House Foreign Affairs Committee
Dillon is reported, in this same
press release, as testifying that
while Deputy Premier Mikoyan was
here recently the matter was called
to his attention but the Bolshevik
said that as far as he was con~
cerned he didn't think the Soviets
had any obligation to pay anything.
The vast grants of funds to the
Soviets during Roosevelt's admini~
stration was the beginning of the
program to take money away from
American taxpayers and give it to
fore ign governments all over the
world and it was this policy appar~
ently which first gave the Com·
munists the idea that Americans
are fools and simpletons and they
have treated us accordingly since
that lime.
COMMUNIST-INSPIRED RACIAL
RIOTS BREAK OUT IN AFRICA
Those who cannot see that the
r a c i a 1 integration movement i.s
Integrationists Achieve Part Of
Their Objective In Little Rock
ommunist-inspked and is worldwide
in its scope, are reminded of
the racial riots in the British protectorate
of Blantyre, Nyasaland in
Southeast Africa recently.
According to United Press International,
British Royal Air Force
planes had to bomb the rioters with
tear gas in order to quell the disturbance,
while g r o u n d troops
opened fire on the mob.
Bombing Quiets Down
The silence concerning the At4
lanta bombing case has been thick
enough to cut with a knife since
those charged with the crime were
acquitted after a jury trial.
Communists and t h e i r fellow
travellers who advocate the social
mixing of Whites and N e g r o e s
were u n a b I e to integrate Little
Rock public schools which were
closed rather than take this dis~
graceful step but they are not alto~
gether without accomplishments in
the Arkansas city.
On February 27, Arkansas State
Police arrested more than a dozen
White an d Negro teenagers and
smashed what was described as an
Interracial sex and dope ring which
Governor F au b u s described as
'
4some of the fruits of integration."
Police said that some ot the girls

Integration of the schools there
will probably be consoled in having
achieved some of their ends at any
rate.
The American people are re~
ported to have spent $40,000,000,-
000.00 on sports and recreation
last year. Perhap! if they had
spent a portion of that amount on
patriotic projects, they would be
more likely to be free to partici~
pate i-n sports and recreation in the
years to come.
It does not seem quite bright to
pay the FBI to flush out Communists
and furnish evidence to co-nvict
them and then pay the Supreme
Court to turn them loose
on us again, in the opinion of a
Dallas lady, MiLdred Bennett Bale.
But whoever claimed that those
who frame Washington policies
are bright? We've know-n inmates
of a feeble-minded institution who
were smarter.
A friend in Dallas reports a patriotic
writer as remarking: "I
would rather have an article of
mine in the Southern Conservative
for no monetary reward than in
the Saturday Evening Post at their
highest rate." If we only had the
1pace we would reproduce aU the
grand material that is submitted
to us. But after we get through
popping off with our own editorial
remarks, there'J not much room
left for good stuff.
Two p e r s o n s were reported
killed at Lilongwe in the central
p r o v i n c e of Nyasatand where
police riot squads turned out in
force, another at Chileka and 16
were injured in the rioting there.
All crowds in the area were dispersed
and police seized vast quantities
of guns and ammunition
w h i c h had been stocked by the
blacks.
Communists are known to have
long been active in Africa where
savages from the jungle are pouring
into towns and cities with demands
for "racial equality" in
schools, churches, factories and
other places of employment.
It is the same type of campaign
which is being carried on in the
United States with the exception
that in Africa, unlike the United
States, there are very few weakminded
white persons who have
If you are puzzled because more succumbed to Communist propaand

colored in preparation for the new
world where all skins will be of
the same hue. Franklin D. Roosevelt
said that nothing happens and
that everything was ~'planned that
way" and so it is.
When a Negro makes a speech
in behalf of hi.s own people, the
press calls it . Civil Rights; when
a white man does the same thing,
it's ~'racial prejudice" says a Dallas
woman patriot.
It is not believed that those who
actually did the bombing will ever
be brought to trial. The case has
all the earmarks of an old Spanish
custom in Communist c i r c 1 e s
where Reds commit a crime which
they hope will be blamed on patriots
and engender resentment
against them. Sometimes these
plans backfire as was apparently
the case in Atlanta.
While such outrages should cer ..
tainly be punished by law, we hope
those in Congress who are trying
to create more Federal legislation
to punish those who should be
amenable to the State, make a
thorough investigation before they
vote.
They may be surprised at what
they find.
Any American-man or woman
- who advocates abolishing the
Un-American Activities Commit~
tee of Congress or any other agency
concerned with the security of
this country is an enemy of the
United States and should be dealt
with accordingly. There can be
only one reason why any person
should take such position and that
is because they are defenders of
Communism-and Communism is
a deadly threat to the survival of
the Republic.

Nation's Powerful Legal. Body. Asks Words Of Praise Which
Smooth The Way For Us
Congress T 0 Curb Supreme Court In the type of work which we
are trying to do, there is little compensation
other than that which
comes from the approval and gratitude
of those of our fellow Americans
who have not been tarred
with the black pitch of "liberal·
ism."
In the June, 1954, edition of the Southern Conservative, right after
the Supreme Court of the United States launched its massive attack on
the Constitution and on States' Rights with its school integration ruling,
we said editorially in part:
"Traditionally, members of the Supreme Court of the United States
have been set apart by common consent as men possessed of great dignity,
of a deep and profound knowledge of Constitutional law and of that
certain essential quality of personal integrity which insured that external
influence, political pressure or partisan consideration would not be reflected
in rulings from the Bench. Currently, that body, through a long,
careful and deliberate process of elimination, is composed of low-grade
political hacks whose slanted opinions are formulated with the objective
of establishing social trends, appeasing minority groups and influencing
election returns. Heading it is a cheap California demagogue who didn't
look back when he got a chance to swap a rigged judicial decision for a
plushy lifetime job."
Ours was only one of the many protests offered by alarmed American
citizens who watched with horror as the Court handed down one
decision after another which threatened the national security and the
abolishment of the revered American principle of States' Rights.
If it had not been for the thousands
of letters which have flooded
our mail for the almost ten
years of existence of the Southern
Conservative from Americans in
every walk of life and in every
State of the Union, giving us heartening
encouragement, we should
probably have folded up long ago.
Occasionally we receive one

Shrewd Maneuver By Which
Democrats Win Elections
If there are those who wondered
why California, which is normally
a Republican State, went so heavily
Democratic in the last election,
the secret has now been revealed.
One Miss Katie Louchheim, vice
chairman and director of Women's
Activities of the Democratic National
Committee, in the JanuaryFebruary
edition of Democratic Digest
tells how the trick was turned,
at least in one voting place in
Southern California.
"A Southern California precinct
worker reports that she always
takes a big bag of marshmallows
to the polling place," writes 'Miss
Louchheim. "Each child accompanying
a voting mother is offered
marshmallows and told: 'Tell your
playmates they can get marshmallows,
too, If they bring their
mothers to vote'."
There have been many reasons
advanced from time to time why
American citizens should exercise
the right of franchise but perhaps
never such a brilliant one as the
proposal to stuff the children of
the voter with marshmallows.
We think, however, that the sys-tem
could be improved. ·
Personally, we would have of~
fered all-day suckers, since marshmallows
go down the hatch in one
gulp and might not keep the little
darling pacified until the mother
gets through marking the ballot for
the Democratic donors. But an ailday
sucker is good for hours and
would at least keep the peace until
the tired mama got home, got her
girdle off and started wondering if
the effort was worth all the trouble
and if future results would justify
her in swapping her ballot for a
bag of marshmallows.

Communists Back James Roosevelt's
Bill To Take Heat Off Enemy Agents
Contacts in Los Angeles tell us
that Communists who have always
thickly dotted the City of Angels
are doubly active since the Supreme
Court ruled that it is all right
for members of that party to plan
the overthrow of the American
government.
Recently these impudent and arrogant
enemy agents have been
standing on the street corners there
and openly soliciting signatures to
a petition for the abolishment of
the Un-American Activities Committee
of Congress, a propos a I
which Jimmy Roosevelt has been
sponsoring in Congress.
Surely. this bold subversive action
by the Los Angeles degenerates
will . impress the American
people with the indisputable fact
that the thinking of members of
the Supreme Court and the California
congressman is in complete
accord with that oL the Soviet
sympathizers on the West Coast.
Here's an example of statesmanship
as applied in this fair land of
ours. There is a law, which the
Supreme Court has just upheld,
which prevents electric light and
power companies from claiming
tax exemption for ads they put in
newspapers in which they inform
the American people of the discrimination
of Congress in favor
of TV A and other Socialistic power
projects. But the Socialist cooperatives
like TV A are tax-exempt
in all their operations and
don't pay any taxes at all.
The vagaries of politics are
forcefully illustrated in the case
of Wisconsin . It seems incredible
that the people of that State who
were permitted a United States
Senator as vigorous, aggressive
and dynamic as the incomparable
Joe McCarthy could have ever
settled for the colorless person who
followed him.
out the ages that have passed, so
it is altogether possible that we
have another Joan of Arc right
here among us in the person of
yourself who will eventually save
America. ·
"Of course; should America fall,
all the rightist nations in the world
will fall with her and the world will
once more be shrouded in darkness.
Therefore, I say God bless
you and sustain you in the wonderful
work you are doing in the
cause of all humanity."·
HoUywood is still fighting
World War II and killing off Nazis
by bringing back moving pictures
which were shot during, or soon
after, that great conflict. What
worries us is when are they going
to get around to the Communists,
our present enemies. So far as we
can find out, there is not a single
Nazi in a government job, in the
school systems or in church groups
while Communists, or Communist
sympathizers, are thick as f leas.
And still Hollywood carries on its
relentless battle against an enemy
which does not exist, while closing
its eyes to one which threatens
every day to take this country
over.

On February 16, the Associated,--------Press
carried the story of a doomed
Swiss village c a I I e d Herbriggen
which will be destroyed when a
spring thaw sends a million tons
of rock, e a r t h and ice hurtling
down from a mountain peak 3,000
feet above.
This frozen mass is on top of
the Nadelhorn Mountain and will
become a thundering avalanche
when it reacheS the edge of the
precipice toward which it has been
slowly creeping.
Most of the villagers are resigned
to losing their homes and
belongings and have moved out of
the danger area, but some of them
have refused to budge and are
praying that the catastrophe may
be a v e r t e d by Providence who,
they believe, may cause the avalanche
to split up and fall harmlessly
in many directions.
The incident has reminded us of
the situation here in the United
States where a similar condition
exists.
Anxious Americans realize that
a terrible avalanche of subversion,
composed of the enemies of Constitutional
Government, is hanging
above the nation they love and
that, unless a Merciful Providence
or an awakened citizenship intervenes,
their country faces the same
danger of total destruction which
threatens the peaceful little village
in a Swiss valley.
From a long-time personal
friend: uNot only from reading
the Southern Conservative but
from personal acquairttance with
you, I have learned that you are
familiar with the unsat:ory records
of many Americans whose subversive
connections are unknown
to the general public. Often I have
mentioned the name of some well
known personality to you only to
be greeted with stony silence on
your part which I have learned
means disapproval. Tell me this:
Does it not make you unhappy to
know these things about so many
Americans?" Of course it makes
us unhappy but our unhappiness
stems from the fact a~at there are
so many traitors to the country to
which we all owe so much. We not
only wish we didn't know these
things. We wish they were not
true.

American people to expect reme-dial
legislation to be pas~ed by the
present Congress.
The principal measure which is
said to be more likely to pass than
any other is the Kennedy bill which
is little more than a joke insofar
as any restrictive measures on
labor unions are concerned.
Kennedy is a slick politician who
has only one objective and that is
to get the Democratic nomination
as President of the United States
on the Fair Deal ticket.
His principal support is expected
to come from labor u' n i o n s to
whom he has deferred and kowtowed
since he first entered public
life, and there is not a ghost of a
chance that he would take any
action that Js not privately approved
by Walter Reuther.
The Republicans, also with an
eye on the labor union vote in
1960, have a bill which is approved
by the Eisenhower administration
but it is little better than the Kennedy
measure.
Like it or not, we have to face
the fact that there are ti.ot enough
men in either House of Congress
who will dare defy the AFL-CIO
and put through a bill which protects
the public from the strongarm
tactics of labor unions.
After all, how many Barry Goldwaters

and his goons and whip them down

The attitude of the Russian Communist

the atheism of the Soviets is well

aspect of the matter lies in the
fact that this conference at which
a Russian Communist was a participant

the Social Gospel of Karl Marx.

Page 6 THE SOUTHERN CONSERVATIVE
Americans Getting Fed Up Movement To Enable Criminals To
On 'Brotherhood' Racket Escape Punishment Being Pushed
Slowly, but surely, the American
people are realizing that the
"Brotherhood" propaganda which
has swept the country and caused
the setting aside of certain days
and certain weeks in which to observe
"Brotherhood" is a sinister
movement which was "planned
that way" by internationalists and
one-world mongrelizers.
Back of this unholy gospel is
racial abnormality which is to be
ultimately extended to the black
peoples ot the earth with the resultant
inter-breeding of the races
In the hope of submerging white
people into one degenerate global
mass of half-breeds.
Every Christian has the responsibility
to be kind to his fellow
men in normal and casual contacts
but there is no obligation whatever
to te:tm up with those of every
race, creed and color who may, or
may not, be dedicated enemies of
this great country of ours and
plotting for its destruction.
Those who do so are rank hypocrites
and in their hearts they
know they are.
We believe rank and file Americans
are becoming fed up with the
"Brotherhood" racket which was
carefully planned and thought out
by those who have an ulterior motive
in the movement and who are
far smarter than the stupid victims
they have enticed into the trap.
Those who are brimming over
with "love" and looking for a place
to bestow it might devote some
of it to their country which is sadly
in need of a little devotion at
this particular time of national
peril.
Major Criminals In The
United States Are
Of Foreign Origin
1 The crime rate is many times
higher in the United States than
in any country on earth, and is increasing
almost by the minute.
In nine cases out of ten, those
who are engaged in underworld activities
and who comprise the hoodlum
element of the country have
foreign names that are all but unpronounceable.
Which reminds us that we have
3,000,000 to 5,000,000 illegal aliens
in the United States and not only
are they not being deported, but
the Reds in this country are constantly
trying to break down our
immigration bars and allow additional
thousands of undesirables to
enter our borders to add to the
criminal element already here.
How is it and by what authority
do we consider that our politicians
in Wa5hington are "world leaders"
and capable of managing the whole
universe when we can't even rid
our own country of the international
trash which constantly floats
across the ocean to land on our
shores?
Until we clean the filth from our
- own premises, we should pipe
down on instructions to other nations
as to how they should conduct
their affairs.
Like a heavy percentage of the
movements which have been started
in this country in the past decade
or two, the one to abolish the
death penalty in various States is
of Communist origin. T h e r e is
nothing that fits in better with the
plans of the Commies than to have
the criminal element of American
citizenship turned loose to run at
large and commit more crimes.
They shoot their own criminals
without a trial, but favor laws in
this country to exempt murderers,
thieves and rapists from paying the
supreme penalty. After all, the
more lawless persons there are in
a country, the easier it is to spread
the evil seeds of Communism.
Hollywood has, naturally, gotten
into the act and has released a
production entitled "I Want To
Live," based on the life and execution
of a cold-blooded murderess.
Of course murderers want to live;
so do those victims of such murderers
who are shot down without
mercy.
Another advocate of abolishment
of c a p i t a I punishment is
"Lawyer Welch" of Massachusetts
who hammed it all over the place
during the McCarthy hearings and
evidently acquired the idea that he
possessed histrionic ability. He has
appeared on television in recent
months pleading, not for abolishment
or lessening of crime, but
abolishment of the electric chair
for those who commit crime.
Self-Appointed Masters
Must Be Reduced
To Public Servants
How can the people back home
lick Communism by trusting in
God and in individual effort if Congress
continues its 25-year record
ot betrayal by voting us deeper
and deeper into spiritual, moral and
financial bankruptcy by way of
more bureaucratic enslavement, inquires
A. G. Heinsohn of Knoxville,
Tennessee, who has a long record
of propounding disconcerting questions
to politicians which these
politicians are unable to answer.
•·set us an example by removing
your party nose-ring," Mr. Heinsohn
challenges the bureaucrats.
"Stand up on the floor of Congress
and announce your belief that the
moon was hung by God-not by
politicians or bureaucrats - and
that you consider the survival of
your country more imoortant than
your re-election or the success of
an unprincipled political party.
"Prove your repentance by calling
for the orderly reoeal of the
Socialist- Communist I a w s that
have robbed us of our freedom
such as the Federal income tax,
wage and hour control, control of
agriculture, social security, public
housing, foreign throwaways, civil
rights, Tennessee Vatley Authority,
United Nations and other Socialist
devices and introduce legislation
that would re-impose Constitutional
limitations of power so that today's
self-aopointed masters would
be reduced to their intended role
ot public servants. u
Sending Troops To
Little Rock Was
Disgraceful In Any Event
According to the Washington
bureau of the Houston Post, troops
were sent into Little Rock in 1957
on request o( Little Rock mayor,
Woodrow Mann.
According to the Post article,
Mann sent a telegram to the President
on September 24, 1957 urging
the immediate need for Federal
troops in the Arkansas city on
the goounds that mob violence was
imminent.
While Mann is said to be the
type who would have no scruples
in demanding Federal troops to
handle a strictly local matter, there
are many who doubt that troops
were sent to Little Rock simply because
he requested it. After all, a
mayor has no authority to call out
Federal troops. Only a governor of
a sovereign State can make this
request.
Since bitter resentment against
sending troops there to intimidate
the citizens with bayonets has been
nation-wide, and not confined to
the South, it is believed that this
latest alibi blaming Mayor Mann
is merely a ruse to take the administration
off the hot-spot.
Why Are Our Relations With
Philippines Now Strained?
The relations between the Philippines
and the United States
which have always been on an extremely
friendly basis are now reported
in the press to be definitely
strained.
So far as we have noted, this
condition has not been blamed publicly
on Charles E. Bohlen who was
recalled as Ambassador to Russia
and sent to the Philippines as a
representative of this country in
the Islands.
However, remembering the bitter
opposition expressed by Senator
Joseph R. McCarthy to Bohlen
and in view of the fact that later
events have proved that the Wisconsin
senator was always right
in his deductions, perhaps the relations
between Manila and Washington
would be improved if Bohlen
were recalled and someone else
sent to represent us in this Pacific
outpost.
11This is a Senate of equals, of
men of individual honor and personal
character and of absolute
independence. We know no mast~
ers, we acknowledge no dictators.
This is a halt for mutual consultation
and discussion." - Daniel
Webster in a speech to the Senate
on January 26, 1830. Oh yeah? It

see it now. As to ·~dictaton" what

March, 1959
Sympathy of the World
Goes to Secretary of State
There is universal sympathy for
John Foster Dulles who was strick~
en with cancer for the second time
and prayers for his recovery are
going up all over the world.
He is as much a casualty as if
he had fallen in battle for his devotion
to his work has caused him
to physically exert himself beyond
the call of duty and beyond human
endurance.
Personally, we think most of the
trips he made over. the world were
unnecessary and that we would be
better off if he had stayed at home,
which makes the sacrifice of his
health all the more tragic. -
However, he was working for an
administration which is Interna~
tionalist in its scooe and as concerned
in the welfare of foreign
nations as in the security of the
American Republic and his loyalty
to his employers is commendable.
Great concern is felt over his
successor in the event it is found
that he is unable to continue to
carry on.
With the President's almost unfailing
penchant for appointing the
worst possible person to high office,
alarm over the situation is
understandable.
Florida Is Suffering From
Extremely Weak Leadership
The Dade County School Board
of Miami, apparently succumbing
to Red influence in that area, has
ordered four Negroes to be admit~
ted to white schools next Septem~
ber, but several members of the
Florida legislature have other ideas
about the matter.
The action of the b o a r d was
handled in characteristic manner
by those who advocate integration.
The order was passed at a routine
meeting and no advance information
had been given that the subject
was to come up.
Those who are familiar with
Communist instruction concerning
integration will remember that it
is advised that the step be taken
quietly so as to escape public notice
and thereby engender as little
opposition as possible.
However, Influential members ot
both the House and Senate at Tal~
lahassee insist that Florida schools
which have always been white will
remain so.
The great State of Florida has
been handicapped by the weak
leadership ot Governor Leroy Col~
lins who is neither this nor that
and who wiggles and squirms and
twists whenever the subject is
mentioned.
And when he is faced with a
showdown, he appoints a "commission
to study the matter''
which, in our book, is the coward~
Jy way out of any situation.
N o bo d y needs to "study"
whether or not white and colored
s t u d e n t s should be mixed · in
schools. All informed Americans
who know what the experience ot
integrated schools has been, know
that they should not be mixed.
March, 1959
Communist Party And
Supreme Court Are In
Unison On Integration
Concerned Americans who have been
amazed at the similar positions of the Supreme
Court and the American Communist
Party in behalf of integration of the
schools in the South should not fail to
read a government document recently released.
While the document referred to makes
no reference to such similarity and merely
develops testimony from witnesses under
oath in a routine manner which it has
been pursuing for years, only a blind,
person, after reading the records would
fail to note that Communists and the
Court are in accord on the subject.
This document is called "Communist
Infiltration and ~ctivities in the South"
and reports hearings before the Committee
on Un-American Activities, Hous&
of Representatives, Eighty-Fifth Congress
held in Atlanta, Georgia, last July.
At thi:i hearing, one impudent, arrogant
and dirty Communist after another appeared
before the Committee and, although
the Committee had documented
evidence that they had been a part of
the Communist apparatus for years, they
refused to answer questions and practically
defied the Committee to do anything
about it in view of Supreme Court
rulings in their favor.
One brazen Communist agent who had
previously been identified as a Party
member by an undercover agent of the
FBr, didn't even bother to take the Fifth
amendment when asked if he were a
Communist but replied Instead: "I am
nd.iq on the Watkin•, Sweezy, Xoenigsbergandotherdeclsionsof
t heUnited
States Supreme Court which protect my
right and the Constitution as they interpret
the Constitution of the United States,
::~~::!~~n~y right to private belief and
At another point a letter was produced
by the Committee written by the same witness
which had been broadcast widely asking
those addressed to oppose the passage
of bills in the 85th Congress curbing the
Supreme Court's rulings in favor of Communists
in which he said in part: '1t
should be pointed out that these bills to
validate State sedition laws are only a
part of the attack on the U.S. Supreme
Court. The real and ultimate target is the
court decision outlawing segregation.
Won't you write your two senators and
your Congressmen asking them to oppose
S. 654, 2646 and H.R. 977. Also ask them
to stand firm against all efforts to curb
the Supreme Court ... "
When he had finished reading this letter
in its entirety, Committee Counsel
asked the witness if he was a member of
the Communist Party at the time he
signed that Jetter to which the witness
replied, "I refuse to answer on U1e same
ground previously stated" (Supreme
Court decisions).
A character identified as a Communist
by the FBI agent refused to answer every
question propounded to him including
whether or not he was a Communist,
whether he was editor of :The Southern
News Letter" (a publication of propaganda
for integration of the races) and
even where he was born.
Testimony was developed showing that
Communists with degrees from colleges
a nd universities are sent lnto the South
to work in menial positions in factories
and industrial plants where they carry
on thcir activities as "colonizers" for the
Party. One woman "colonizer" identified
by the FBI undercover agent as high in
Communist Party circles admitted that
THE SOUTHERN CONSERVATIVE
At Least There's No Doubt
Where This Candidate Stands
We do not know Mrs. Kate Walker of Oklahoma City, but we have
been informed that she owns prop=rty and conducts a business in a
district of her home town which, if Urban Renewal legislation now before
the Oklahoma legislature passes, will be taken away from her and
used for whatever purpose Urban Renewal overlords may decide is best.
. Sever<>~ candidates. have offered for the job as Mayor of Oklahoma
C1ty but JV,. s. Walker d1dn't exactly admire their wishy-washy stand on
Urban Renewal so she hauled off and announced for the job herself and
will finance her own campaign.
The platform of this intrepid lady is a gem in reverse psychology.
We hereby reproduce it below:
KATE WALKER FOR MAYOR
HAVE MONEY-WILL FIGHT
For Urban Renewal, Graft, Greed and Corruption.
Since theft is now legalized by the Urban Renewal Law, I want to
get in the city government and steal the people blind.
If I am elected Mayor under Urban Renewal, I can use the law of
Eminent Domain to condemn any property I want, seize it and sell it for
profit.
I will condemn homes, throw the people out in the street and promote
Juvenile Delinquency.
I can be bought! If anyone sees any goodies such as their neighbor's
property that they covet, they can come to me with a thousand dollars
or so and I'll see that they get it.
I am a business woman. I have been in the grocery business, the
real estate bus-iness, the laurldry business, the decorating business and
failed in all of them. I am now in the Junk Business and doing fine,
but I am greedy. I want more money.
I am a mean character! I have divorced three bums and I'm glad!
I have been accused of being a Communist, threatened disinheritance for
voting the Republican Ticket, and am registered a Democrat.
i< i< i<
I am a family woman. I have an Irish terrier dog and an idiot sister.
If I am elected Mayor, I'll see that the rich get richer and the poor
get poorer!
Why be quaint? On with progress. Down with honesty!
Vote for me and let's have a ball. ------------------------

she had a bachelor of arts degree from
Cornell, graduate work at Syracuse University
and had taught at the latter institution.
And yet she was working as a
-spinner in a Southern tutile mill, and
changing jobs every few months in order
to contact the largest possible number
of persons.
A ma.n who was a graduate of the University
of North Carolina and had had
graduate work at Washington and Lee
and whom the FBI agent had identified
as a Communist "colonizer" was employed
as a bobbin boy in a cotton mill,
a floor sweeper, a sheet metal worker
and a rubber grinder. In refusing to say
whether or not he was a Communist he
pleaded the "Watkins ruling."
One female Communist with a very
foreign name accused the committee of
having called her to testify because "of
the strong position that I have taken for
a number of yea rs on the question of
integration in the South." For this charge
she was vigorously rebuked by committee
counsel.
Any American who doubts the Communist
origin of the Integration movement,
should send for this report and
read it.
Every good American should
read "The Pentagon Case0 by "Col.
Victor J. Fox'' which is obviously
not the real name of the
author. Although the aut~or
claims (probably for purposes of
preventing libel) that the book is
fiction, any student of Communism
knows tha.t this claim is fiction
and that the material in it
is authentic.
A group of mothers of the airmen
who were shot down by
Communists on last September 2
have written the President and
asked him to go to Russia to try
and find out the fate of their
boys. They point out that he should
risk his own personal safety for
those men who risked so much for
all of us.

Bill Seeks To Freeze
Teachers To Positions
A bill which would freeze school
teachers to their jobs on the order
of the Civil Service monstrosity in
effect in Washington has been in-troduced
in the Texas Legislature.
For a long time now educators
have been squawking about .. tenure"
and "academic freedom" and
more and more it has become hard ...
er to rid an educational institution
of an undesirable instructor as a
result.
This bill which is titled H.B. 589
would make it practically impos ...
sible to djslodge a school teacher
no matter how earnestly I o c a I
school boards and schoo-l authori-ties
might wish to terminate their
service.
It is understood that the bill was
introduced on instructions of the
National Education Association
which is tightening its hold on
local public schools throughout the
nation and undertaking to dictate
all policies and practices having to
do with the education of the nation's
youth.
After a teacher has a two-year
toe-hold on the job, they could not
be suspended, demoted. reassigned
or dismissed except for "marked
inefficiency" or "~rave immoral·
ity." Just plain inefficiency would
not do and common immorality
also would be insufficient for dis ..
missaL The inefficiency w o u 1 d
have to be "marked" and the im ..
morality "grave" before action
could be taken to fire such teach-
Also, the charges a_eainst a
teacher of "marked inefficiency"
and "grave immorality" would
have to be preferred in writing
"with full specifications of rea ..
sons" as well as ten days notice.
I
No protection is thrown around
the public, the school, the children
and the parents in the bill, but the
teacher may demand a hearing
which it is compulsory on the
board to grant with legal counsel
for the accused and a lot of other
tommy rot. I
The people of Texas have been
asked to strongly protest this
vicious measure and to write their,
representatives in Austin to defeat
it. ~

Possibly the most startling disclosure was the case of the Iowa
schoolboy, son of recently elected Congressman Steven V. Carter of that
State, who was put on the payroll at a salary of $11,873.20 per year.
When he is not attending classes at a Washington university he will act
as public relations counsel for his old man who, it would seem off ~hand,
is going to have serious need of improved public relations and especially
with his constituents back home, judging from reactions in the Iowa
press.
Equally notorious is the case of the wife of freshman Congressman
Leonard Wolf, also of Iowa, who has been put on the payroll for
$13,334.00 per year as her husband's office assistant. But in this case
perhaps Congressman Wolf is smarter than might appear on the surface

That's all right, brother, but what about the "sensitivity" of the
taxpayers who happen to be the big stiffs who are providing the money
which their public servants in Washington are strewing around like
confetti?

Congress Obsessed With Idea
That Physicians Are Paupers
It has taken the leading physicians
and surgeons of the country
several years to hammer through
the thick skulls of Congressmen
that the medical fraternity does
not want, does not need, and will
not accept social security benefits.
And now some nitwit in Washington
has introduced a bill In Congress
which would exempt doctors
from paying i n c o m e tax on
amounts up to $2500 "in order that
~~~Ya;;il!,ht lay aside something for
Ye gods and little fishes!
If they are determined to enact
class legislation and discriminate
in favor of one group, how about
doing something for the poor saps
who are patients of the physicians
and surgeons and who have to
sometimes spend months and years
getting square on their doctor
bills?
We simply adore members of the
medi.cal fraternity and nothing on
earth is so satisfying as to see the
face of the family physician ap ..
pear in the door in time of illness.
But all this aside, we can't see
why our statesmen in Washington
insist on trying to make them
wards of the government and treating
them as if they were all on the
verge of going to the poorhouse.
Personally, we don't know of a
medical man anywhere who is on
relief, seJJing pencils on the street
corner or who faces burial in the
potter's field when he dies.
In fact, all those we know anything
about are financially in the
class of brokers, bankers and master
plumbers and would be in better
position to stake our insolvent
government to a few thousand
bucks. rather than the other way
around.
So please, Mr. Congressmen. lay
off the doctors who not only have
more money, but more initiative,
common sense and independence
than you give them credit for pos ..
sessing.
"Russia may beat us to the moon
with a Sputnik," says Tom Anderson
of Farm & Ranch, "but I bet
we'll get there first with Foretgn
Aid."
Black men from Jamaica are
flocking into England by the boatload
- most of them destitute -
where they are put on relief and
given all form.s of national assistance.
The English people are said
to be burned up over the situation
and especially over the immoral~
ity and corruption. which follows
in the wake of colored emigra ..
tion but, under English law, are
unable to deport the undesirables.
We hate to say it serves England
right, but we do remember much
harsh criticism on their part about
the handling of the uracial prob ..
!em" in the Southern part of tho
United States. They have a prob ..
lem right in their own lap n.ow
which will keep them too busy to
criticize others.
