For What It's W orth.
By C lifford P. R owf
So far as I was awair, I had never known or seen a com m unist;
neither had I ever been tem pted by any of their propaganda. As a
esult I had come to be som ew hat asham ed of my-
elf, for a fter all if one isn’t even w orth a com-
lunist working on him, then he m ust be p retty
jw grade.
Such was my fram e of mind until just recently
vhen direct from the U. S. S. R embassy in W ash-
mgton, D. C., I received a beautifully illustrated
[magazine giving me the low-down on things be-
tind the iron curtain. Since they won t let any-
l»ne see for himselt how tilin g s a r e 0VM* t h e r e , ' I
I hought it was ra th e r decent of them to take all
| hat trouble just for me, especially when it was
ent absolutely free.
A fter I had finished reading the m agazine (in
a dark corner of my cellar at m idnight by candlelight) I found that
they had succeeded in convincing me th at they undoubtedly were big
gest liars on God’s green earth and th at the m agazine was truly
vCorth every cent they charged me.
The stories and the words were beautiful. Everybody in Russia
was employed and happy. But where the editor m ade his m istake
was in using pictures. If those people were happy then they must
have been m om entarily depressed by the sight of a cam era because
I never saw a more m iserable, dejected and beaten look on the
face of hum an beings than that displayed by the happy Russians.
The pride and joy in living, seen only on the countenances of free
men, were missing entirely.
Sure I will go along w ith the editor when he says th at everyone
is employed in Russia. W hat does th at prove? So is everyone em
ployed in A lcatraz and Sing Sing; but I doubt very much if this
is cause for happiness.
No I am afraid th at Joe is w asting his com rade’s rubles when he
sends such tripe to me or to any oth er Am erican citizen who has
som ething other than saw dust for brains. I am not going to sub
scribe for the magazine even though they very kindly offered to
send it in plain wrapper.
