Ro doubt the chiefs of the Séviet organization have made the commmist
spies and agents in this country an attractive offer, eiving them the
impression that when the corminists take over they will all held hich
Soviet vositiona in Moscoyv. Of courss they vould want to get out of
America when that hanrens. It looks as if Hlliott Roosavelt and Henry
Wallace cade arrangemonts with Josef Stalin when they wore in Russian.
But let mo say this, if any nation is to rule the western end eastern
hemispheres, better it be the United States. For, by the way things
generally turn out this country has to furnisn material and soldiers
and fight their wars for them, then bear all the expenses, and on ten
of it all, we pay them for the great privilege of letting us fignt
their wears for them. Llsn't it-so? .
I, like many other Americans, am highly in favor of the move that
President Truman has made toward supporting Greece and Turkey in
stooning Ruseaian aggression. The officials of the Soviet organization

It may be that in some places I have said too much, and in other places,
not enough. The truth is that I am one of the worst enemies that the
communists have. ;
This nation still has the upper hand, and if we go at it with all our
might we will win. And before it comes timo for me to ascend the iolden
Stairs, I want to see this country and other nations free from comminists.
Yours very truly,
