MONDAY, NOV. 10, 1958 GEORGE TODT'S OPINION 14 EDITORIAL PAGE VALLEY TIMES Covers Entire San Fernando Valley Be informed to understand; vigilant to detect; vocal to sound an alarm." Experts' Valley Plant Advice Draws Attention To Research Moscow's Plan To Win Americans "Religion Is the opium of the people." -KARL MARX A Criticism of Hegelian Philosophy and laboratories in Canoga Park and a Sodium Reactor Experiment plant in the Santa Susana Mountains, all representing an undertaking not surpassed anywhere else. The Sodium Reactor Experiment plant operation is a part of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commissions program. The very wide-ranged experimentation there is conducted for AEC, though not directly by the federal agency.

That program of research and experimentation has so many features and purposes that progress cannot be measured on any short-time or nearsighted basis. But there appears to be a general scientific confidence that atomic energy will be sufficiently controlled and the supply of it made adequate for the conversion from conventional fuels to this source of power by the time the supply of fuels has become a critical problem in this country and world-wide. The Santa Susana Mountains plant Tight now is and for several months has been feeding limited quantities of electric current into the Southern California Edison lines for general distribution. But this is on an experimental basis only, and it is yet impossible to estimate how close this method of It all fits into a great progress program in which the San Fernando Valley has a vital part Valley institutions are prominent on both sides of the picture concerned with use of atomic energy commercially and constructively. Appearing on one side of that picture, a research and development program here represents the supply producing side.

And now comes a recommendation from a thoroughly competent and authoritative source that a Valley power plant might use atomic energy as soon as a supply is available under conditions and at a cost to make it practical. The atomic energy using recommendation has just been submitted to the City Council and mayor, as the administrative authorities over the Department of Water and Power, owner and operator of the electric power plant in the Valley. A team of experts has been engaged, for almost a year, and at considerable cost, in making a survey of all aspects of the business of production, distribution and selling of electric current. On the basis of this survey, Ebasco Services, a management firm having operations on a national and international scale, a firm that stands high textbooks of psychology, to such a degree that anyone thorough ly studying psychology becomes at once a candidate to accept the reasonableness of Communism. As every chair of psychology in the United States is occupied by persons in our connection, or who can be Influenced by per-sons in our connection, the consistent employment of such texts is guaranteed.

They are given the authoritative ring and they are carefully taught "Constant pressures in the legislatures of the United States can bring about legislation to the effect that every student attending a high school or university must have classes in psychology. Educating broadly the educated strata of the populace into the tenets of Communism is thus rendered tentatively easy, and when the choice is given them whether to continue in a Capitalist or a Communistic condition, they will see, suddenly, in Communism, much more reasonably than in Capitalism, which will now be of our own definition. Those who would like to sea the complete Synthesis of the Russian Textbook on Psychopolitics may obtain it by writing directly to Rev. Kenneth Gotf at Englewood, Colo, and enclosing one dollar in check or money order form. It is an eye-opener, a real shocker.

I met the 45-year-old Goff in Los Angeles last week and found him to be a dedicated fighter against Communism. He is particularly interesting in this connection because 20 years ago he had been a member of the Communist party of the United States for a period of three years. Then he saw the error of his ways, repented, and came out of the party to testify concerning it before the Dies Committee on Un-American Activities. I always admire the sinner who truly repents and works hard to redeem himself later. I asked Goff why he had once-upon-a-time embraced the Reds? It was because of the economic lure, he told me.

On paper, Socialism and its bastard child, Communism, can be made to appear good. But it doesnt work out the way it is so glibly drawn for its Intended victims. Those who are not hypnotized soon recognize it as 'fool's gold. What Is "Psychopolitics? According to the official Russian handbook, it is the art and science of asserting and maintaining dominion over the thoughts and loyalties of individuals, officers and bureaus, and masses, and the effecting of the conquest of enemy nations through mental healing. From July 28-Aug.

2 of this year, I wrote a series of six articles on this subject, all of which were subsequently in' serted into the U.S. Congres sional Record and may be found in the Appendix on pages A-7286, A-7287, A-7356, A-7357, A-7576 and A-7577. That is the background for this article. Now lets go on into the matter further along the same pathway we used before. Previously, I had quoted Chapter 14 (The Smashing of Religious Groups) and Chapter 15 (Proposals Which Must Be from the Russiah Textbook on Psychopolitics, as well as the Infamous address of Beria to American quislings at Lenin University prior to the Second World War.

Nothing Adolf Hitler ever devised could have been more deadly to the Republic of the United States than the Bolshevik proposals to turn the American people into a herd of cattle. Today we shall consider Chapter 11 of the official textbook. It is called "The Use of Psychopolitics in Spreading Communism. Here is the verbatim tran script: Reactionary nations are of such a composition that they attack a word without understanding it. As the conquest of a nation by Communism depends upon imbuing its population with Communistic tenets, it is not necessary that the term Communism be applied at first to the educative measures employed.

As an example, in the United States we have been able to alter the works of William James, and others, into a more acceptable pattern, and to place the tenets of Karl Marx, Pavlov, Lamarck, and the data of Dialectic Materialism into the in its field, recommends acceleration p0wer generation comes to practical SHORT INTERMISSION THERE WILL NOW H.

But the important point to the situation created when experts talk about atomic energy for running the Valley power plant is that research and development work, upon which depends progress toward a new age in this part of our life, is well under way in this area. To a notable extent, this work is concentrated in the Valley.

When Gen. Mgr. William S. Peterson of the Water and Power Department revealed that his office has had an engineer task force engaged for two years already in a study of the economic possibilities of the atomic source of power, he and others in responsible positions were fully aware that there is nowhere a richer field for their study than right here in the Valley. of studies looking to possible use of atomic energy for running the Valley power plant which now runs on steam produced by conventional fuels.

Thefe appears to be no certainty, estimating, or guessing, in terms of years, how long it may be before conversion from conventional fuels to some form of atomic energy can be attained. Scientists and specialized engineers are hesitant about specific commitments on the development schedule. Virtually all of them say there still is much work to be done, many complex problems to be solved. But right here in the Valley is one of the most extensive, most comprehensively planned and wide-ranged research and experimentation projects to be found anywhere in the world. Atomics International, a division of North American Aviation, has offices the East, but he should be permitted to serve his full term of four years as Governor of New York.

He is young enough to be able to wait, and he should be allowed to gather more experience as the executive of the Empire State. If what A1 Smith once toy me is correct, it will take him two years to really get to know hit job as Governor. Republicans need not be too discouraged about the results of a midterm election which brought in enough new Democratic Representatives and Senators to give the party an almost two-to-one representation in both Houses. Because of the special circumstances that surrounded Franklin D. Roosevelts administration in 1934, he was able to prevent a Republican gain in House and Senate in 1934.

But with that single exception we can go back for something like a half century without finding any Instance where the opposition did not win additional strength in Congress in a midterm election. Nor are Tuesday's results The Democratic land I li piled up last Tuesday gives definite indication that the average voter prefers federal action to state action, federal deficits to state deficits, federal controls to state controls. It emphasized the trend of the last half century to concentrate more power in Washington and less in the 48 (now to be 49) state capitals. Foreign affairs did not receive much emphasis. But some of the leading Democratic campaign speakers objected to such vigorous independent action as the United States took in the defense of Lebanon and Que-moy.

They asked for a large degree of dependence on and cooperation with the 1 1 Nations. The effects of the recession, now happily declining, are still felt In such states as Michigan, Ohio and California, where the Democrats scored decisive victories. Nor must it be forgotten that in those states, as well as in some others, the organized labor vote was of decisive importance.

This talk goes further to suggest that it will be necessary to shift to a pay-as-we-go plan to finance the city hall and police station buildings and wait until considerable sums of money are in hand to start the master-plan construction, the central fire station included. The local situation, together with the accumulation of many confused situations elsewhere, would seem to have a practical moral: from here on out until nobody knows when planning which involves bond propositions to be submitted to ballot will have to be much more thoroughly done and much more comprehensively explained to the people. ative merits This question, presenting itself when and as it does, illustrates a state of affairs prevailing, not only here, but, likewise, in many places, pretty much throughout the country, in fact, with respect to bond issue approvals by vote of the people. Sentiment against such heavy spending by governments, all levels of them, a sentiment which is a part of a feeling of cautiousness about the pileup of public debts, is finding expression in ways that constitute a problem.

It is a problem which may show up in the form of many inconsistencies. The score here is no worse than it is in many other places. One vivid illus- better in the east than they did in the middle and far west. Since political power is slowly moving from the east to the west, this will' be an important factor in future national elections. Thus it appears that the Democratic triumphs west of the Mississippi are far more important than the triumph of an outstanding Republican personality in the state of York.

Nelson Rockefellers win over Governor Harriman was largely personal, and had little relation to national campaign issues. On the other hand, many Democratic victories in the middle and far west grew out of the more liberal policies of Democratic candidates. President Eisenhowers vigorous criticism of the radical wing of the Democratic party had little effect upon the voters, and there is no evidence that Vice President Nixons heroic campaign, which covered every one of the countrys Important political areas, changed many votes. As for the avowed candidates for President two years from now, there were few surprises. The best record was made by Senator John Kennedy in Massachusetts, who was re elected by an unprecedented majority.

Democratic Senator Symington also won his expect ed victory in Missouri by a large vote. Decisive defeat in New York eliminated Averell Harriman as a potential candidate for the Democratic nornt nation. On the Republican side, Senator Knowland of California is eliminated by his defeat. Despite the California result. Vice President Nixon still remains as top man on the Republican side.

He fought a magnificent battle, and even though It was a losing fight, he has gained in prestige. With President Eisenhowers backing, he has by far the best chance to carry off the Republican nomination. There are those who could tap Nelson Rockefeller as When once we reach November, I'm aware how time flies fast for then I get to thinking that a whole, long year has passed since turkey graced the table at Thanksgiving Day events and kids were all to wise that Christmas loomed a few weeks hence.

General Fremont entered the Valley in January, 1847, through the San Fernando Pass, and was met by a welcoming group of California soldiers, and Geronlmo Lopez, who carried the truce flag. The first Americans to enter the Valley are thought to be Ewing Young and his trappers, who stopped at the San Francisco Mission in 1826. N.
