What Is the Communism
Dean Acheson Refers to?
By DeWITT MacKENZIE
I Secretary of State Dean Acheson made a statement Thursday
about communism which is likely to cause puzzlement among
. some intellectuals who have been viewing the Red ism as a Utopian
c political ideal
In makine a olea before the
house foreign affairs committee
for approval of the administra
tion EuroDean arms program,
. the secretary pointed out that
r "throughout this struggle there
, has been in existence Denina
the Iron Curtain the greatest
i peacetime combination of mili
tary forces the world has ever
I known."
I Then a bit later he said:
l "The fact is that the appeal
I nf international communism is
not, contrary to the self-serving
' assertions of the Soviets, an ap-
peal to the minds of men.
J "International communism
I has made its gain in Europe not
J by any intellectual or spiritual
I attractions but by the threat that
i derives from the existence of
large forces, and the ruthless ap
I plication of force wherever this
j has been necessary to achieve
' its objectives."
I ...
' That strikes me as calling for
I a definition of "communism."
i As pointed out in previous
; columns, the original commu
. nism of generations past was a
' beneficent ideology abolishing
! private property and establish-
ing a social order in which it
; was one for all and all for one.
t However, by the beginning of
l this century communism had
been split into two sections
j the bolshevists, who were the
. majority, and the menshevists,
i who were the minority.
I
t
The bolshevists, led by Lenin
adopted the doctrine of direct
action. They held that the rule
of the proletariat could only be
achieved by actual revolution
and bloodshed.
This was exemplified in their
successful revolution in 1917
when the czar was overthrown
and "liquidated" with his imme
diate family.
Since then the bolshevists
have been in power in Moscow,
first under Lenin and for the
past quarter century under Sta
lin. Direct action and strong
arm methods have prevailed.
That s what Mr. Acheson re
fers to as "the ruthless applica
tion of force." It is one of the
cardinal tenets of communism as
practiced by the present bolshe
vist regime.
The original brands of com
munism and socialism, of course,
had much in common.
We get the reflection of this
fact in the name of the Russian
commonwealth Union of Sov
iet Socialist Republics. However,
there's a wide breach between
socialism and communism these
day.

Call Urgent for
Bean Pickers
With an acute shortage of
bean pickers Tuesday it looked
as if the bean producers were
going to have to depend on lO'
cal help instead of transient la
bor to harvest the crop.
, The employment service of
fice at 710 Ferry street sent out
231 pickers Tuesday morning.
but that wasn't nearly enough.
West Stayton alone wants 300
more pickers than are now at
work, and there n also a call
from the yards around Salem,
and from Independence which
is going in more for beans. The
bean acreage has increased by
25 per cent over last year.
The beans are coming on
irom tne grouna to the wire
and the picking is good" is the
report from the yards.
Bean picking was scheduled
to start about July 15 or 18, but

a cold spell came on that delay

come here for the harvest left
the community. So it is now
necessary to depend largely on
local help.
