THE DOOM OF DEMOCRACY If it is established in the Mex ican instance tHat a Latin Amer ican Government can arbitrarily confiscate the property of American companies and Amer ican investors without paying for it fully and promptly, this will give collectivists in those countries such a powerful wea pon that collectivist policies, whether fascist or communistic, will become almost general throughout Latin America. And that will mean economic retro gression of a kind and to an ex tent that will affect the pros perity of the entire Western Hemisphere and even of the Old World. Morover, it will spell the doom of democracy in many countries. —The Texas Weekly. >(|ppfN Circle No- 2 Meets i Misses Lillian and Thurla Cole ' were hostesses to Circle No. 2 of the Brunswick, Mich., arrived this week Presbyterian V/oman'g Auxiliary on to be the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Har-j from Lake City, Fla., where he has I Wednesday afternoon of last week 1 Mrs. M.

Winston Churchill answered the question in an excerpt from an essay on Leon Trotsky in his! book. “Great Contemporaries,”! and, in view of the increasing: menace of Communism in the ‘ world today, we quote from that source: j “Communism is not only a| creed. It is a plan of campaign, j A Communist is not only the holder of certain opinions; he is the pledged adept of a well- thought-out means of enforcing them. The anatomy of discon tent and revolution has been studied in every phase and as pect, and a veritable drill book prepared in a scientific spirit for subverting all existing institu tions. The method of enforce ment is as much a part of the Communist faith as the doctrine itself. At first the time-honored principles of Liberalism and De- mocrary are invoked to shelter the infant organism. Free speech, the right of public meet ing, every form of lawful polit ical agitation and constitutional rieht are paraded and asserted. Alliance is sought with every popular movement towards the left. “The creation of a mild Lib eral or Socialist regime in some period of convulsion is the first mile-stone. But no sooner has this been created than it is to be overthrown. Woes and scar city resulting from confusion must be exploited. Collisions, if possible attended with blood shed, are to be arranged between the agents of the New Govern ment and the working people. Martyrs are to be manufactur ed. An apologetic attitude in the rulers should be turned to prof it. Pacific propaganda may be made the mask of hatreds never before manifested among men. No faith need be, indeed may be, kept with ,non-Communists. Ev ery act of good will, of course, of tolerance, of conciliation of mercy, of magnanimity on the part of Governments or States men is to be utilized for their ruin. Then when the time is ripe and the movement oppor tune, every form of lethal vio lence from mob revolt to private assassination must be used with out stint or compunction. The citadel will be stormed under the banners of Liberty and De mocracy; and once the appara tus of power is in the hands of the Brotherhood, all opposition, all contrary opinions must be extinguished by death Democ racy is but a tool to be used and afterwards broken; Liberty but a sentimental folly unworthy of the logician. The absolute rule of a self-chosen priesthood ac cording to the dogmas it has learned by rote is to be imposed upon mankind without mitiga tion progressively forever. All this, set out in prosy textbooks, written also in blood in the his tory of several powerful nations, is the Communist’s faith an^^ ourpose. To be forwarned should be to be forearmed!” The airwaves, for the past week or two, have been periodically clut tered up with short spot announce ments in which Doug Corrigan is quoted as being highly enthusiastic over a certain well-known make of watch and, after listening to it for thje umpty-umpth time the other ev ening, We were constrained to wonder if the manufacturer hadn’t gone off the deep end in securing the intrepid wrong-way flyer’s endorsement of his product If Corrigan can’t read a simple in strument like a compass, how is he supposed to know what time it is? have been moving gradually forward! building of the veterinary hospital, the addition of the Anglo Tweeds Today vei%f few ‘‘shoemakers’’ ac tually make shoes. They repair them. The name simply is a carryover from the pre-machine age when the shoe repair-man also was the man who made the shoes. In America there are some 85,000 shoe repair shops, owned largely by men of Italian or Green extraction. This is more than there were ’n 1929, the reason being that in good times people often throw away shoes without bothering to have them re-soled or re-heeled. Eveybody always has a long list of questions stowed away In the back of his head, and one common to all is, “why don’t postoffice pens ever write?” Po.=itmaster Frank Buch. an explained the mystery the other day to one prone to ask questions- Postoffice pens are not the antiquat ed things we think they are. They are never in line of veneration, as they can never reach a dignified age. •A. clerk, according to the postmas ter, makes the rounds every morning and lifts out the decrepit and broken pens and puts in new replacements. A postoffice pen la put through all kinds of strenuous gymnastics and in a twelve hour day the limber bit of steel has been twisted into so many distorted shapes that all power of writing has been lost. It seems a postoffice pen suc cumbs to Severe pressure and abuse. As We aren't apt to try such ex periments on our own, we don’t know whether they are any better grade than government stock or not. ; Complimenting her house guests, ' Misses Harriet and Margaret Wilson ' those ! of Boone, N.
