54 THE TECHNIQUES OF SOVIET PROPAGANDA —
We know the formula for conversion of the space gradient into
energy, but have not solved the problem of converting a Negro leader
in Kenya to anticommunism. . oo ceo
We prepare commando forces with the most prodigious transport
speed and firepower, theoretically capable of intervening against
ommunist aggression within 24 hours, anywhere in the world, and
simultaneously pay the expenses of United Nations troops sent to
destroy the anti-Communist friends of the West in Katanga.
We crush the taxpayers to forge a steel breastplate with which to face
the Kremlin on the battlefield while in the struggle for minds we
furnish television time to Communist-serving intellectuals whose
wiles paralyze resistance to the Kremlin. ae
The matching of missile to missile is basically a simple problem, but
what do we gain by filling our arsenals with weapons while passively
permitting the enemy to disarm our minds? It is more difficult,
ut far more important to our salvation, that we refute Communist
sophistries, denounce Communist intrigue, and interdict Communist
sabotage. Everything remains to be done in this neglected, but -
decisive, realm. ; a
Condemnation of the just is a tragic act, too often seen in history’s
theater. Let us not add an even more tragic act: the defeat of the
strong. Let us halt the catastrophe which is pushing our civilization,
which owes its greatness to reason, to death by paralysis of reason.
It is to this momentous and dramatically pressing task that the ~
reader is invited. Our world is marching, like a sleepwalker, on the _ .
brink of an abyss. It must be awakened and restored to reason by
the combined efforts of all free men.
