Can You Fight Communism?

The library has over 50 books on the subject Communism. How many of these have you read, or even looked at?

If you have read five of these books, you are above average, which is a very poor category, even though it probably is a situation which prevails throughout the country.

At this critical time, it is absolutely essential that we understand the forces threatening the freedom of the world. When we don't bother trying to understand the Communists, we are playing into their hands. They want us to remain ignorant so that their psychologists can use our misunderstanding to their advantage.

The Communists are clever, and we should never forget it. They are not so stupid as to sit around and wait for an opening to act; they make the openings and then act. Sometimes we do not realize that the Communists are making an opening. They use this to their advantage by planting false ideas in our society so that we fight the wrong things.

If we do not read about the Communists we cannot hope to understand their plans to take over the world. Without reading or understanding, which is the only way to understanding, how can we know what to fight?

Are you afraid of the Communists? Do you know how to fight them? Do you understand them? Are you afraid of an atomic war? Most important, do you know what to fight?

Whether you think that you know a lot about the Communists or not, go to the library and have a look at one of the 50 or so books that have been put there for your use and see if they answer your questions, or else spend 50 cents on the book called What We Must Know About Communism, which is in the bookstore.
