i. Mm Letters to the fcditor REPUBLICANS FOR BONDS To the Editor: No responsible citizen can affbfd to neglect his vote when North Carolina faces such obvious overdue heeds as classrooms and housing at state correctional schools, higher educational ex pansions, improvements at community colleges and mental in stitutions, local health units, and hospital construction, etc. With a Triple A credit rating for the state, we can confidently vote for progress knowing our debt ranking is one of the lowest in the country in relation to per capita income. The State Republican Executive Committee has actively en dorsed tit least half of the bonds listed. * Piedmont Republicans found merit in eight out of the 10. The Orange County chair man favors all 10. * ■ ■ We therefore urge fellow citizens to exercise their franchise intelligently. Ex-President Eisenhower exhorts us to be “pro gressive and responsible.” We cannot afford to be otherwise.— See you at the polls. ’ % Signed, : Holland L.

Botsford, Cameron Park Curtis Brown, Efland legion To sponsor 'abolition' film To the Editor: <' , 3 American Legion T*bst No. Six of Chapel Hill is spohsorin* the showing of “Obmmunism Dn.Tfce Map” and “Operation Abil#ien” on Monday at 8 p. m. in Memo rial Hall. Students and the gen eral public are invited, admis sion free. “Communism On The Map” is a film-strip, tape recorded, placed into distribution May IS, _I960. Subsequent events such as student riots in South Korea, Japan, Turkey, Latin American, upheavals ih the Belgian Congo, Laos and tfee alarming progress of the disease r of muscular Castrophy on the body of Cuba — all fall within the pattern of world conquest by Communism v exposed through the film-strip. Operation Abolition needs no better advertisement than the following joint statement by seven ministers who sat through the San Francisco hearings of ±L^: the House Un-American Activi ties Committee, May 12-14, 1960; (Dr. G. Archer Weniger, Oak-' land; Rev. George Moore, Wal put Creek; Rev. Don Watson, Oakland; Dr. Roy fc. Austin, Satt Franciscp; Dean Wm. G. Bell ehfpr, Saf iVapcisco Baptist Seminary;. President H. O. Van Gilderi DD, Western Baptist Bible College, El Cerrito; and Dr. Amo Q. Weniger, San Fran cisco). 'The frightening drama •? the Communist inspired student riots of May 12-14, 1960 has beAn captured in a startling Film Au thorized by the House Un-Ameri can Activities Committee en titled ‘Operation Abolition.” The film is J 40-minute documentary taken by news cameramen both inside and outside the City Hall. Local Communists are identified as they incite the crowds to wild disorder and violence, in which several policemen were hospita Tigcft. - . Communist charges of police brutality are ridiculous. One could not be an eyewitness to .this tragedy without a fear of those few who are dedicated to this party of treason and yet so | successfully staged this dress re hearsal for revolution in our own PROOF ■ AMT 4/8 QUART area. This film is one of the most effective counterblows for liber ty imaginable. . These commu nists, together.with their fellow travelers, dupes, suckers, un- j witting tools, and a few regretta ble allies in the ministry, little realized that they would be making a permanent record which would expose their treasonable activity. “Inasmuch as the communist conspiracy has launched a mas sive attempt to discredit this film, we ministers who were eye witnesses to this horrifying de velopment locally, wish to certi fy that this film is a true and accurate representation of the ac tivities of the hearings. The Com mentary is truthful. The film is not ‘doctored’. The sound track is not distorted. The leftwing charge that this film is a forgery is a manifest lie. While the original films were probably five hours in length, most was repeti tion of the obstructionist tactics of the subpoened witnesses. Nothing wias eliminated which would show the rioters in any better light. In fact, we were amazed that the Committee Would allow witnesses Wm. Man dell and Douglass Wachter to freely express their vicious propaganda attack upon the Con gressmen . . .” In the American Mercury, July 1961 pp 122-124 is an aVticle written by a man from Sandus ky, Ohio. The following quotes are from that article in the Mer ctiry Forum: ~ d “I am Latvian by birth.and liras in Latvia when the Commu hists took that country over. When I watched the film “Opera tion Abolition” I could not help but feel I was back there seeing those things happening all over again ... “In Latvia, before the year 1939, less than three per cent of the people were Communists or their sympathizers. In 1939 when Russia decided to subdue Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania all hell broke loose. At a given signal there were riots everywhere; policemen were stoned, spit upon, beaten and disarmed by crowds who were led by few but trained Communists . . . “Many people in the U. S. have the mistaken idea that Commu nism is just another political party and the Communists should ibe * given freedom to express themselves in a truly democratic' country. But in a democracy we, don’t permit anybody to teach crime or sell and use dope or teach and promote vice and pro tect it under law ... “I know how Communism works and saw it again in the film “Operation Abolition.” PETER ZEN'KL, Ex-Vice Pre mier of Czechoslovakia and Lord Mayor of Prague, now the chair man Executive Council of Free Czechoslovakia, said in “This W4ek” Magazine, Oct. 29, 1961: “iMy native country was lost to the Communists in 1948 without civil war. I bear partial respon sibility for I was there and, as Vice Premier and Member of Parliament, in a position of some authority . . . While democratic Czechoslovakia's defeat was com posed of many factors, one im portant element facilitating the Communist march to power was wishful thinking. We believe that communists would be transformed into partners in a pariimehtary sense. The contrary happened.” %ere will be no debate or frnta with this showing, that dbafe was amply covered #hop &ctMist l$ke Jjarttoiteh and Conservative Fulton Lewis III de bated for two ahd one-haSt Bburt in Oaftbil H«d! aa Oct. id.
