The first booklet, titled "100 Things You Should Know About Communism in the U. S. also lists the "principal officers and offices of the Communist Party, U. S. as of 1947." Headed by Representative J.

Parnell Thomas, the committee lists the four succeeding publications as "100 Things You Should Know About Communism in Religion," "100 Things You Should Know About Communism in Education," "100 Things You Should Know About Communism in Labor" and "100 Things You Should Know About Communism in Government." Questions and answers in the first booklet follow: 1. What is Communism? A system by which one small group seeks to rule the world 2. Has any nation ever gone Communist in a free election? No. 3. Then how do the Communists try to get control? Legally or illegally, any way they can.

Communism's first big victory was through bloody revolution.

7. Could I change my job? No, you 'work where you are told, at. what you are told, for wages fixed by the Government. 8. Could I go to school? you have to do? You have to obey the Party in all things.

It may tell you to change your home, your job, your husband, or wife. It may-order you to lie, steal, rob, or to go out into the street and fight. It claims tne power to tell you what to think and what to do every day of your life. When you become a Communist, you become a revolutionary agent under a discipline more strict than the United States Army, Navy, Marines, or Air Force have ever known. 48.

Why do people become Communists then? Basically, because they seek! power and recognize the oppor- Utilities that Communism offers the unscrupulous. But no matter why a partic- ular person becomes a Com- munist, every member of the Party must be regarded the same way, as one seeking to overthrow the Government of the United States. 49. What kind of people become Communists? The real center of power in Communism is within the professional classes. Of course, a few poor people respond to the Communist claim that it is a "working class 58.

Do only Communists car- ry out Communist work? o. The Party uses what It calls "Fellow Travelers' and "Front Organizations" in some of its most effective worn 59. What is a fellow traveler? One who sympathizes with the Party's aims and serves the that it drives between people who try to move against it. fit. What is a Communist front? An organization created or captured by the Communists to do the Party's work in special fields.

The front organization is Communism's greatest weapon in this country today and takes it places it could never go otherwise among people who would never willingly act as Party agents. It is usually found hiding among groups devoted to idealistic activities. Here are 10 examples out of hundreds of Communist fronts which have been exposed: American Committee for rotection ot oreign horn. 2. American Slav Congress, 3 American Youth for De- mocracy.

In the United States today there is one Communist for every 1,814 persons in the country." 32. Why aren't there more? Because the Communist Party does not rey upon actual Party membership for its strength. J.

Edgar Hoover testified: "What is important Is the claim of the Communists themselves that for every Party member there are ten others ready, willing, and able to do the Party's wonc. Herein lies the greatest menace of Communism. "For these are the people who infiltrate and corrupt various spheres of American life. So rather than the size of the Communist Party the way to weigh its true importance is by testing its influence, its ability to infiltrate." 33. How are they organized? Primarily around something they call a political party, behind which they operate a carefully trained force of spies, revolutionaries, and conspirators.

The basic fact to remember is that Communism is a world revolutionary movement and Communists are disciplined agents, operating under a plan of war. 34. Where are their headquarters in the United States, and who is in charge? Headquarters are at 35 E. 12th New York City. William Z.

The Communists only compete for votes to cover their fifth-column work behind a cloak of legality. They expect to get power by ANY means, just so they get it.

The examples of Poland, Czechoslovakia, and other countries in Europe show just how many methods Communism applies. In each country different detailsin all the same result. 79. Why don't Communists 23. Could 1 vote the Com-'r Identified? But taken as a whole the! It is easy.
