Se,
TF A NEIGHBOR across the street parties.” Within a short time, the con-
from where you live had knowingly
and certainly robbed every other house
on your side of the street save your
own; if he had murdered some of the
home- ~owners or else sent a few of them
‘into exile; if he had
stripped many rooms of
furniture and brought §
them into his own. €
house, and then began
accusing you of being
a robber and‘a thief
-and a murderer, even
writing articles to the
. Paper to that effect, Pear
what would you do? :
Would you merely. say “<seggy.

: Then why is it that when the United

. gused of being oppressors of people,
wanting to start a nuclear war and en-—
Slave people, of being imperialistic and
' denials at the United Nations instead
- of giving a list of the countries that
‘ they have robbed, pillaged, raped and’
_ confiscated! Why do we not name
, names, and remind the Soviet Union of
‘ the countries they have confiscated,
? such as Ukraine, Rumania, Hungary,
| Karelian Isthmus of Finland, Poiand,
' Lithuania, Bulgaria, Armenia, Albania,
t tian, Uzbekistian, China and others?
Why do we not bring up before the
United Nations, day after day, the

these countries? .

Instead of being. on the defensive,
would not our strength lie less in con-
stantly dealing with the Soviets than in
pleading for the liberty and independ-

Eastern Europe? There is nothing that .
so much disturbs a thief as tobe caught *
‘with the stolen goods in his own hands,

Deeeption and Distortion pee
As Molotov lied when he said-that
he would allow the nations of Eastern
Europe to preserve their integrity and i
sovereignty, so too Soviets today con- —
tinue the dictum of Lenin to lie, deceive -
and distort in order to further the
Soviet revolution.
In one of the very best books that
has been written on the Soviets, Lin’
Yutang in “The Secret Name,” wrote.
about the conferences” at Yalta:
“Churchill believed Stalin; Roosevelt
and Truman believed him. .. Roosevelt i
Smoked a puny cigaret, Churchill .
smoked a long cigar, and Stalin smoked °
a pipe and he won. Stalin lived up to. |
the words he had spoken before Yalta: .
Words have no relations to actions— ©
otherwise what kind of diplomacy. is it? |
Words are one thing; actions another, )
Good words are a mask for a conceal- .
ment of bad deeds, Sincere diplomacy .
is no more possible than, ary water or ?
wooden air.” =* a
So long as the Soviets can.make the’
United States discuss nuclear warfare, §
space, summit meetings and the free ©
city of Berlin, it distracts the Western -
World from the basic-problem of taking -
the stolen goods from their hands..The.
last World War started because of
Poland. Its modern history has been:
that of a crucifixion between two,
thieves—Naziism and Communism.
‘Nothing will happen to the world until
something happens to Poland. .
