HoN. EvERETT M. DIRKSEN, of Illinois I n Th e S enate of the United Stat es (Bv ]. EDGAR HoovER ) ;t,. WASHINGTON, D. C.-"Daddy, is there a God?" The little 8-year-old boy, his eyes sp arkling, waited intently. An older pl aymate had mentioned God. Surely, D addy would know the answer. The fath er, a trained Communist, he itated, a look of surprise on hi face. "No, on. There is no God." " But D addy," the young boy protes ted. "H enry aid there was. H e said God created the world, and is our best friend." " onsen e," the father snapped. " God is capitalist propaga nda. H e doe n't exi t. Forget such notions." These are the teachings of a Communist parent. These wo:¡ds ymbolize the dread danger of comm unism to America n youth .
A " Germ Carrier" at Work Communi ts kno w tha t the youth of today will be the leader of tomorrow. They are till training their own children-many hundred of America' boys and girls-to be fan a tical Communists. Communists often "grow in families" : fath er, mother, children, even in-l a ws. The party is proud of its " Communist genealogy." It m ay boast one cl ay of " three generations of Socialist fighters,'' next day it may pay tribute to a " worthy mother" who h a rai ed h r sons a nd daughter to be Communi ts. This Communist capture of their own hildren ( though orne do esca pe) illu tra tes the depths of their degrada tion as p a rents. But the pa rty, in tho:: proce s, gain a corp of young, fanatical , highly di ciplined devo tees. Wher ver they go- in school, youth groups, ommunity organizations, even the Armed For - the e boy and girl ar in fac t "ge rm carri rs."
And they accomplish great deed for the party. L et's pi cture a college ci a . u 1e the daughter of a n ac tive Communi t, is a student. Lik a bl e and intelligent, he m ake fri end . Politic i discussed . Su ie ex pre es the Communi t viewpoint- the only viewpoint he know . Several of her friend are a ttracted. Susie invites them to a tudy meeting at the home of a fri end . The meeting i a Communi t youth bra nch. Step by step th ey become indoctrina ted- until a year la ter everal of Sus:e' friend join. Virtually all of today' leader in the Communist Party, United State of Am erica, ta rted Communist work in their youth . Not long ago the FBI m ade an interesti ng stud y of the ea rly life of certa in leading Comm unist functionaries. Thi revealed that the average age a t which these men and women officially join the Communi t P arty (or it youth branch ) wa 22 .2 year. ge ranged a ll the way from 14, 16, and 18 to 15. Th ese Are R ed M ethods Just how i the Communist P a rty trying to a ttrac t non-Commu nist youth- meaning your children? 1. Through the Labor Youth League- the principal medium through which th Communist Party conducts it youth ac tivitie . This i the ucce,:or to the Young ommuni t Leaau a nd th e America n Youth for n emocracy. This organ ization is a feeder f r th ommunist Pa rty, n1ted Sta te of m erie â&#x20AC;˘.

THE ANCHOR Parties, dances, and ocials are often used as bait. 2. Through Communist-front organizations- fronts u ually masquerading under high-sounding titles. 3. By infiltrating legitimate organizations - the youth groups, school organizations a nd the like in your community. A Communist member was employed in a Midwestern day nursery. She worked hard. She wanted to he a superviso r so < h ~ could hire other Communists.
Youth Is lmjJrisoned American must realize the continuing da nger of the Communist challenge to youth . A young p erson, once recruited by the Communi t , become a prisoner. Intelligence is not a preventive. Many Communist recruits are highly intelligent. Dr. Kl aus Fuchs was a brillia nt young scholar. No, something more is needed : strength of morfl character. In one American city, not too long ago, a 9-year-old boy was speaking to his father, a Communist official. "Daddy," he said, " it's funny, but Stalin and Lenin a re the on ly two Russian presidents I ever h eard of." A little irrita ted, th e fa ther said, "They each had long terms." " What pa rty are they in, D addy?" "The Communist Pa rty, of course," sa id the father, becoming more a nnoyed. 路'H ow of ten are elections held ?" The fa ther coughed nervously. "As often as mentioned in th e constitution." "And , D add y 路禄 * *" the boy started to a k. The father had enough. "Go on to bed . Th at' enough tonight," he sa id. Antidot e: An Open Mind " Th at's enough" - tha t' s the a ttitude of th e Communists when ques tions are a ked .

They don't want qu stions- alert, intellig nt, straight-from-th -shoulder qu stions. Th e p a r nts of Am ri a hav a special responsibility to guard th ir children- with ympathetic upervision. If American parents spent just a fraction of th tim and effort on their children that Communists spend to beguile them, I would have no fear.
What 'Can Unite d States Youth Do ? Know the hi . tory of yo ur Nation , its origin , struggl e for liberty, the li ve of its great leade rs. A young man a nd woman, weJI versed in American h1story and cultu r , wiJI have a full under ta nding of the true m aning of liberty, justice, a nd eq uality. Be affirmative in your convictions. We don't need to be apologetic about Am rica . We have weaknesses. Certa inly. But we are working to co rrect them. America has a story to tell the na tions. othing can be gained by a negative, defeati t approach: Be vigilant and clear-minded. Don't be rushed off you r feet. D on't call a man a Communist until yo u have the fact . The orderl y processe of democracy ca n handle the Communist threa t. Your re pon ibility is to cooperate with the law. A man i innocent until proved guilty. Each per on, und er the law, mu -t be given hi full rights a nd privileges. Bewa re of Communi t propaga nd a. Watch uch phrase as " thought ontro l on the campu ," "academic freedom a rifi ced to war prepara tions," "the degeneracy of bourgeois culture." Be a len to phon peace p titi ons-thi is one of the Communi t' favorite devices. Put your ultim a te tru t in God. trong moral character i the chief need of 19-2. The young person who dedicate hi life to be on the piritual principle will alwa true path-a path which the ommuni ts ca n never cro s.

T wo well known College Administrator among many h ave expre sed divergent view which appear to be indica tive of the line of thinking on which people a re dividing as far a the propo ed investigation of Communi m in Education is concerned. M a rk Foote of the News Wa hington Bureau in an article in the Ann Arbor Ne ws of J a nuary 27, 1953, di cussed the sta tement of Dr. H a rlan H .

Mr. Foote aid, "Dr. H a tch er emph asize the da nger of subversive in educa tional mstitution while Dr. Conant put the tre on the da nger of thought con trol." Thi seems to be the dividing is ue among ma ny, althou gh some people still declare the Communi ts are few if any, and are little menace in any a rea of American life. The example of the la bor union , military service and government departments, in which Con gre sional inve tigations have indicated a housecleaning wa n eed ed , does not seem to impre the doubting Thoma e with the po ibil itie el ewhere. Mr. Foote aid Dr. Hatcher ent the Committee on nAmerican Activitie of the U.

EARNEST and thoughtfu l peop le in and out of the academic scene are discussing whether any limits should be placed on the mandate given by Congress tha t there shall be an investiga tion of Communism in Education. Th work of th e Congre siona l Committees is meeting with resistance in some quarter ' with lukewarm coopera tion in others, and with a pprecia tion and upport in still others. Th e American Association of University Wom en, in which ma ny Greek Letter women are active, mentioned the dilemma involved in taking a stand in their Journal of J anuary 1953 as follows: "For the mo t pa rt we and like minded groups have been put on the defensive. If we attacked Communism and the Communists we found ourselves in the camp with the se lf seeking or fascist-minded individuals. .. . If we defended our liberties as free people we ra n the risk of being cal led Communist sympa thizers, fellow travelers, and even Communist ! So we h ave sa t back more or less pa ralyzed a nd have allowed other people to ta ke the initi a ti ve a nd to create a dilemm a for the hones t a nd loya l liberal.

Conant declared, " It would be a sad day for the Country if the tradition of dissent were driven out of our Universiti es. And if there were Communist at Harvard (which ,he denied ) the damage that would be done to the pirit of thi academic ommunity by an inves tigation aimed at finding cryptoCommuni t would be far greater than any conceivable h arm such a person cou ld do." Again quoting Dr. H atcher, Mr. Foote clo es his interesting comparison of the two points of view by this statement: "The University o Michigan ha a tradition of liberalism but it exercises all the vigilance consistent with American practices, against the possibility of ubversive activities, whil e preserving the traditional freedom of schol arly investigation upon which our National progres is based."

Th e Advertising Council, Inc. a modern railway streamliner went berserk and tore into the concourse of the Union Station in Wa hington, D. C . An hour later and a mile away, in the same city, fire and explosion wrecked a large business establishment. The two accidents rapidly overwhelmed already heavily taxed hospital facilities. Victims of both catastrophes needed blood and n eeded it in a hurry. Imm ediately after news of the two disasters hit, the radio and press blood donors streamed by the dozens into the local blood collection center. ... Our people will always respond promptly when they see a need. But why . .. why must we depend upon catastrophic accidents to point up the need? Will we wait till we hear the drone of enemy planes to collect the blood needed for a city razed by atomic explosion? Adequate supplies of blood and blood plasma have cut the death rate of our Korea n wounded to half that of the wounded in World War II. Children by the thousands have been spared lifetime handicap resulting from measles because they were given injections of immune serum globulin produced from surplus wartime blood plasma . There is high hope that this same blood serum may ;\; REcENTLY

spare many children the crippling effects of polio. In this blood factor, we find a weapon to control infectious jaundice. And the story of the miracle of blood therapy could be exp a nded on and on. Entirely a ide from the daily dramatic demands for blood that hit headlines and news broadcast , there are other significant facts which every able-bodied American should remember. Every minute eighteen of our citizens a re injured in accidents. Many of them n eed blood and n eed it promptly. There is no time to wa te hunting down donors. Blood h as become a rna jor weapon in our arsenal of death fighters. It i a weapon which cannot be fabricated, cannot be mined, cannot be made from synthetic materials. It must com e from h ealthy people of good will. The donor today m ay be the recipient tomorrow. Each of us mu t adopt the habit of giving blood a one of the obligations of good citizenship. Only by facing up to thi obligation can we procure the hundreds of thousands of pints of blood essential to our na tional welfare . . . essential in p路eace, in war or in drfense preparedness.

Each couple had to bring some type of food to help fill the basket for a needy family in Mt. Pleasant. For favors the girls made little red stockings and filled them with Christmas candy. The day of the party the girls got together and made cookies for refreshments. Spring Rushing began early and ended with a bang this year. We had three rush parties during the rushing period. The first was our formal rush tea which we centered around the circus theme, and decorated in the T au colors, emerald and gold. For our second party we used our annual theme Slee py Tau Hav en. All the rushees wor~ P.J.'s; the actives wore nightgowns. J eannie Clark brought her new baby " Christy" to the party. Christy was as much at home a any one and enjoyed a fun-fill ed evening with us. Our final rush party, held in the college den, was " The T au Sweet Shoppe." We served popcorn, lemonade, and candy after the games and "getting better acquainted" ses ion. The bid were ent in and we received into Beta Chapter, nine wonderful girl . They will be initiated into A.S.T. on April 19.

Or~enla/ Wa~ ""' OcTOBER's bright blue weather cooperated perfectly with Ball Sta te's homecoming this year, and Lhe sunny skies and full moon added to the gal a mood of collegiates and returning alumnae alike. The occasion was especially memorable because of the grand official opening of the L . A. Pittenger Student Center. T wo years ago the first spadeful of dirt was turned at the site of the building; last year old grads found the C enter well under construction and a " coffee hour" was held in the basement of the building; this year came the culmina tion of dreams and ·planning as the doors were opened for the first time to the homecoming crowd .... The Alpha T aus had their usual "in-between-er" buffet supper where collegiates and alums spent a social hour renewing old friendships and meeting new sorority sisters. In November carne the traditional Founders' D ay banquet served in the ballroom of the Student Center. Swishy skirts, good food, relaxed singing, all contributed in making the occasion a highlight of the sorority year. Our special speaker was Miss M ary Beeman, H ead Emeritus of the D epartment and Professor Emeritu of H ome Economics at Ball Sta te. Miss Beem an spent last year teaching at Silliman U niversity in the Philippines, followed by a round-the-world tour. At ou r banquet she was dressed in a native Philippine costume and she took us wi th her "Along the Oriental W ay" in an intriguing a nd info rm ative talk. Christmas-at the home of Nell Young - brought us together in a mellow mood ; and the Christmas story given to us by our ho tess-the inging of carols-the reading of "The Christmas Apple" wi th its pathos building up to the final triumph of the little clockmaker- added to the wa rmth of our f cllowship. I n the month especially remembered becau of the ra il splitter and h is ax Cupid
and his arrow, and the ha tchet-cherry tree episode, the Muncie Alum nae m et at the home of Mrs. Forrest M ayer, one of our patronesses. A special fea ture of this meeting was the inspira tional talk on " Pocket Pieces'' given by D r. Leo Hauptman, R egistrar of Ball State.-ETHEL HIMELICK.
