C. are being requested to swear that they have not taught communism before being given their checks. Probably the greatest compliment that communism, as a governmental systen , - can receive is to have knowledge of it suppressed. It is a theory which says that each citizen of the state should receive goods according to his needs and that each should give according to his ability. It is distinctly op posed to the theory of democracy which aims to give to everyone the profits of his or her own labor. The bee argument against communism is not to suppress informa tion about, but to teach it truthfully. It stifles ambitioi in people who come under it for they cannot receive th« fruits of their labors. A lot of paper® in moaning about the $2,500,000 appria tion for the new capital mention the “loss” of $450,000 o federal grant money.

Regardless of the merits in the Baer case we doubt if any of the officials connected with it feel any glow of pride in the affair. Maybe the powers that be back in Washington believe that we should cut Canada’s timber first.
