THE BOY SCOUT "ARMY' By CHARLES "The toughest group to Democratize was that between the ages of 14 and 35, which Hitler had thoroughly Nazified," DeWitt MacKenziq, Associated Press foreign affairs analyst, reported recently. JIacKenzie was telling of continued ad herence to Naziisrn of Frau Gertrud Scholz-Klink Heiss meyer, fuehjxr pf German women in the Hitlerian era, and discussed in that connection the difficulties of converting many German people to the teachings and principles of De mocracy. It will be noted that the age group between 14 and 35 includes persons who were trained as youths in Hitlerian ten ets, and those who were at the most impressionable age of life during the period of Germany's military glory. Jt is doubtful if this particular age group can ever be weaned completely away from Naziisrn. That is one reason wjjy we should be prepared for many years of supervisory occu pation pv.er Germany, and it also is why strong efforts are being made by phe opponents pf Democracy to, force us out of occupied countries.' Influences brought upon the yputh of a land determine the fate of a nation. Jt is significant, therefore, to look at what is happening in Europe today. When the Communists seized Czechoslovakia recently one of the first official aefs pf the law the Jioy fecouts and .Girla Scouts. The proclamation against these t,wp youth organizations wag issued Simultan eously with seizure of control oyer all Czech newspapers. This action, which paralleled the Nazi and Fascist pattern of only a few brief years ago, exposes the true purposes and aims of Soviet Russia and joares the vulnerable sppt for attack against totalitarianism. No stand the pitifess spotlight pf nor the character-buding influence pf a Democratic fellow ship within the ranks of its yputh. In this country we take great pride in our Boy Scoul.r of America and in kindred organizations, the Girl Scouts, Ctai. fire Girls and similar groups. millions Of dollars each year membership and activities. to us that a political party as enemies.' yet that has fcuropp as rapidly as the Red Soviet Russia knows that Communism can gain world con fro if it succeeds in impressing its doctrines upon the minds of h.e young. Then, jn a period of from 10 tp 20 years, the rpugneut group f.o iJemocratize wiij be tjiat between the ages pf 14 tp 85, just as Mackenzie reports today of the eaven pi XNazusm still existant is being extended today by political force, backed by threat of bayonets, ppppsitipn js ruthlessly quelled by censorship, jntiiriidation and even by purge. The individual who takes no pa,rt in ppiitics is held helpless and impotent by a political minority, packed by police and do nothing to regain his lost ance, because he reads in his rulers will permit to be published. He has no way to sift news fron) propaganda, nor fact from untruth. But even under tjiese conditions lfe will continue to strive for free donj. He will organize his underground systems of com- municatipi).
