Having flagrantly flouted diplomatic courtesy in recent demonstrations, locel communistic forces are now directing. by dissemination of immoral and i ligious propaganda, a demoralization campa'gn against the District pubiic school system, accliding to Gen. Ame A. Fries, retired, former chief of Chem:- | cal Warfare Section of the War Depart- ment, who ‘spoke last night before a meeting of the Cathedral Heights-Cleve- land Park Citizens' Association. “Fully aware that its principles are suspect and unsound to the adult mind, communism,” Gen. Fr: declared, “is focusing its most persuasive propaganda on young people, promising the estab- lishment of a new social freedom. which, in reality, would be the most oppressive despotism.” Supplied with numerous propaganda articles and correspondence, Gen. Fries, in discussing the surreptitious appear- ance of anti-American and immoral pamphlet literature in many local schools, revealed the organization of a tion-wide campaign of educational revolt, designed to disrupt the morale of the entire national public scheol system. Presents Campaign Directions. Pointing out that locally enrolled students, acting as secret agents, are quietly injecting communistic sentiment into both class room and home, Gen. ries presented a printed statement of campaign directions, which showed that this local infection is only a phase of a national movement, Involving 53 cities., wavracts from this campaign mani- festo, issusd from national headquar- ters at New York, openly avow a pur- pose of educational revolt, based upon S!:Afl?nt conversion to communistic doc- trine Directions to the junior propaganda | agents read: “The general slogans of the campaign must be linked up with the immediate concrete demands of the children based upon the situation in each school.

Fries discussed the general character of the movement. “Communism,” he declared, “implies the destruction of the four vital ele- ments of soclety, namely, the home, re- ligion, private property 'and morality. The overthrow of any ane of these in- stitutions means a comcession -to the forces of lawlessness and irreligion.” | Vigorously opposing the recognition of the Soviet Union by the United States Government, Gen. Fries sald, “Recognl- ton of the Soviet would not be a recog- nition of the Russian people, but the | elevation to a position of international | importance of a group of controlling “Recognition,” he continucd, “would offer communism the oppor- | tunity of working openly and officially in the United States.” { While still in a formative state in | this_country, communism, Gen. Fries | concluded, if counterchecked by no so- | cial and legislative force, will be firmly | established within “10 or 20 years.” .
