\- 3 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. was, 4 " o 4 = os ax “= _ " as i eid akbte € | 1 }-
