The doctrines of communism are a slow poison that bit by bit eat away the moral fiber of the victim, and destroy the human soul.
We believe that all men have the same rights, and that these rights must be respected.
Communism has not only been beaten as a political force; it has been driven out of trade unions, and other organizations.
In this country we have been waging a relentless fight against this internal attack of communism.
