CONFUSION IN MINUS OF PEOPLE ABOUT "ISMS' To Kditor of Tlie Ilobesvnisiu: There is a lot 01 in the minds of the. people in regard to the "isms" that arc being handled about by both the press and radio columists and commu- tators and also our supposed-lo- bc-slatcsmen and leaders in Washington. If understand the true two Communism and Fascism, are as far apart us the poles in regard to meaning.

Fascism, 1 am told, means for all Industry, wealth and property rights to remain in the hands of the individual, while Communism advocates ownership of all by the state. For the past 20 years we have been taught that Russia was and that we in American should shun or their doctrine rather, as we would a and for several years. after.Russia adopted this doctrine, the Russian government was not even reccghized by the American government and Communists and Communism were looked upon jn i disapproval by most American citizens, rich or poor. there seems to be a decided trend toward Communism iii the United States, aided and abetted by the administration in Washington. Of course the administration stand is easy to understand.

They are playing politics 1 Roosevelt, who is a millionaire, the doctrine of Communism, yet knowing that his wealth is safe, as he, like millions of other Americans, have not the faintest idea that the Communistic doctrine will ever prevail here in America. He encourages' this doctrine, and even goes so far as to be lavish and free-handed with other- people's money and but no one has ever heard of him handing any of his inherited dollars free gratis. Another Washington bunch who advocate Communism are Scenes At Training Schools For Public Officials Lt. Coir Samuel M.
