DETROIT, MICH. — (Sound-
photo) — Sixteen-year-old Richard
Viau, convicted slayer of his fa-
ther, a Detroit policeman, is shown
embracing is mother despite his
handcuffed wrists after he had
been, sentenced to life imprison-
ment. His mother collapsed a short
time after this photo was taken.
Richard’s parting words to his
mother were: “Just think of me as
going away on an extended vaca-
tion.”
evitably leads to dictatorship.
That is exactly what happened
in Russia, the only country in
which Communism has been
tried on a large scale.
Communism banishes G o d.
Karl Masx wrote that religion is
the opiate of the masses. When
the Communists take over1 con-
trol of a country, churches and
religious organizations are clos-
ed. Religion and Communism
cannot both breathe in the same
atmosphere.
Communism presupposes that
all people are equal, while Cap-
italism knows this to be a fal-
lacy, but does believe that all
people should have equal oppor- (
tunity. When Stalin became die- j
tator of Russia, his first move
was to turn sharply away from j
Communism. He publicly de- j
dared that workers should notj
share alike but that each should
be paid according to his individ- j
ual ability and productivity. He j
stated that the worker who
worked harder and better than J
his fellow-workers should haye i
better food, better clothing and]
a better home in which to live. |
This was a confession that
wealth cannot and should not be
distributed equally. Right there,
Stalin threw Karl Marx and his
Utopian theory of Communism
into the ash-can.
Under Communism the people
have to be governed by a small!
group of men. A people will-!
ing to submit to this kind of
rule are not fit to govern them-
selves and should not be allowed
to do so. The same is true of
any collective system.
In America, under Capitalism,
the people individually own all
the country, and our law mak-
ers are our elected representa-
tives. Danger threatens this
ideal state of economic and po-
litical affairs. If we continue to
place more and more wealth in
the hands of our Federal Govern-
ment, thus giving it control of
more jobs, one fine day these
lawmakers will cease to be our
elected representatives, and in-
stead, become our un-elected and
self-appointed rulers.
Communism kills all initiative,
all incentive. Why should a
worker try to do a better job if
his reward is only to be equal to
that of another worker who has
less ability and . toils less dili-
gently? In America, under Cap-
italism, the skilled and industri-
ous worker gets a greater re-
ward, plus the opportunity to
advance to an executive position.
As proof of the latter, take a
look at the thousands of men
now holdng key positions who
started at the bottom.
Communism is an impractical
and unworkable theory, and will
continue to be just as long as
human beings are human. To
aspire to better ^things; the am-
bition to outstrip one’s fellow is
but «human. In the early days
of mankiffd, it was the fellow
with the strongest muscle and
who exercised it who became the
“boss mah.” But civilization has
marched on, until today .it is the
fellow with the strongest brain
and who exercises it, who works
his way to the top of the heap.
There is now an aristocracy of
brains which will not stomach
Communism. It must either op-
erate under a Capitalistic sys-
tem, or sit in the saddle of a dic-
tatorship.
The greatest benefit for man-
kind comes not from placing the
control of wealth in the hands
of a few people, as under Com-
munism, but from encouraging a
