A concluding amonltion of the
Legion instructions warned Post
officials that Communist moves to
wipe out all Immigration protec-
tion were clever, and deceptive.
“The greatest victory Commu-
nism- ever won in the shrinking
Free World,” said the headquar-

nominal success in convincing the
gullible that Red proposals are
really not Communist schemes at
all—and that danger to the world
from Communism is a myth, a

“Don't laugh away the Commu-
nist campaign to chop down our
bars against unrestricted and un-
limited immigration. Make no mis-
take: the Red enemy la alert, ac-
tive and dangerous. HU target to-
day is the basic immigration law
of the United States. Call on Con-
gress, loudly and powerfully, to
defeat him.”
