Any Day, Monday, May 21st, Thru Saturday, May 26th CLIP THIS COUPON It Entitles You to a . FREE Cup of Coffee and a Do-Nut Hoover Says Reds' 'New Look' Posing Free World Menace Washington (U.R; FBI Di rector J. Edgar Hoover and 39 experts on Russian affairs warned today that the Soviet Union's "new look" policies and tactics present "a menace to the free world greater than Stalin ism itself." Their views were expressed in a symposium on anti-Stalinism and the 20th Congress of the Communist Party. The sympos ium was published Saturday by the House Committee on Un American Activities under the title, "The Great Pretense." "The Communist leopard fre quently changes his spots, but the same blood bad blood con tinuously flows through his veins," Hoover said in the 173 page report. "Josef Stalin, who ranked with MARX, Engels and Lenin as an untouchable saint in the godless Soviet tem ple, has been exposed by his own worshippers as a power-crazed tyrant," a pathological fraud and "a coldhearted executioner.". 'About Face' This is "another spectacular about-face" in the party line, Hoover added, but "should have been no surprise coming from a movement which has no moral principles, which lives by ex pediency, and which will make any move to advance the Com munist cause." Committee Chairman Francis E. Walter (D-Pa.), who prepared a summary of the various views, said the 39 contributors stood together on these major conclu sions: 1. "The current policy and tac tics of the Soviet Union present the greatest danger ever to con front the West." , 2. "Current developments in the Soviet Union are a reflection of growing strength and confi dence rather than weakness." 3. "The policy of anti-Stalinism proclaimed by Nikita Khru shchev does not denote aban donment of the messianic Soviet program of universal conquest."

Developing Gangsters wny people here believe pro hibition may bring a generation of gangsters to India: 1. There are many, many peo ple in India with an extremely low income, and a tremendous number who are unemployed and have no income at all. 2. By running a small whisky making plant secretly in their homes, they can produce illegal beverages which their children can peddle. 3. The children will see how easily their parents are making $2 to $3 per day, and they will see how their parents disobey the laws. 4. The children will grow up without a desire to make an honest living and without re spect for law and order.
