THE ORACLE SMALL BUSINESS CONTINUES ‘The business of the United States is Sperated on a seale that is not equaled eaywhere in the world.

Worker, a communist paper pub- lished in New York City. ~ : You would considera man peculiar who says he likes pound cake but doesn’t eat it when he has an opportunity to eat it. Browder was read aut of ‘the communist party in 1945 because of his lack of en- thusiasm about the brand of communism he found jn Russia when he had visited that country, Other American communists Who have visited Russia since the end of the second World War withdrew from the party in the United States on their return. They de- clared that they had been “cured” of com- munism by the want and: suffering they had seen in Russia, and one of them, when taken to task by American communists, re- joined, “If you think communism is the world’s salvation, why don’t you go to Rus- sia where you can experience communism in operation. It won’t be long before you will book passage to return to the United States.” - In every community of any size in the United States there are frustrated men and afew.women of eommunistic leanings.

These malcontents hate heen told repeatedly that, as they appear to think communism provides an ideal form pf government, they should leave the United States and go to Russia, where they ean have their crops. filled with com- munism. \Should they go, they would not be long in learning that they could not live their lives as they wished to live them; that the type of life they led would conform to a directive from the Kremlin; that they could not even choose the business or pro- fession they wished to enter without the Kremlin’s consent. Communism is bossism, with the boss- es all-powerful, and the general run of the people afraid of their shadows while they eke out an existence. . renee People who lose their tempers while arguing ought not to argue.
