Should Communists Be Outlawed... i Aa MacKeude Sees ft Calm, cool words about Communists are hard to find these days. With Russia admit tedly unfriendly to the United States, with a fifth column known to be at work, with the dally evidence of damage done by Com munists to other countries, It is hard for us to avoid a nervousness which borders on hysteria. Hut hystarla is just what Communism feeds on. No country ever suppreeeed radi cals more severely than Russia, yet It was in Russia that the Communist Revolution be came a Nallty. (Rant predicted that the Revolution would come ftrat In America. Hia error cauaea Communist theoreticians no end of embarrassment. We blew off jsteam. Russia blew off the lid.) ' The $t. Louis Post Dispatch, one of the great liberal newspapers of the country, used much of its editorial page Sunday to discuss the proposal to outlaw the Commun ist party. Because we camtot say it half aand which lost the battle hut In the end, whether they lived to know It or not, won the war. The Progressive party of the UFolMii-* in Wl*oon*lr\, and bn the broader baae of a national effort in 1924, is anoOin* case in B int. Almost everything the elder LaFol- te advocated as a lone voice in the forepart of this century has been enacted by the major parties. Norman Thomas has complained, and with no little justice, that the Republi cans and Democrats have stolen regularly from the Socialist platforms, j These groups have been the seedbed of ideas. They have kept our parties astir when the oldline hoses would have lulled them to slumber. In short, the minority parties have given life to American politics. We do not mean to imply that the Com munist party should be protected ideas which it might give to the Stater. The point is that if one discredited minority party can be banned eo may meri torious political groups be banned. All are secure in their freedom or none is secure.

Dissent would be- Borne perilous and the American nation would lose the freedom of conscilenct and expreasion which has been the very heart of our way of life. Moreover, we would lose the leaven out of our political system. The history of our parties makes this clear. We have a two-party system, but the major parties have changed from time to time. Also they have fogularly adopted as their own the ideas of the minority parties. Lincoln's Republican party was a small, dis sident group before the 1S6U election, form ed because the major parties, including the In fact, it was none other than J. Edgar Hoover, head of the FBI, who caused the de feat last March of a proposal to outlaw the Communist party. After Mr. Hoover’s testi mony before ’’ a congressional committee, nothing more was heard of the bill for the rest of the session. His advice was against taking “any course which would give the Communists cause to portray and pity them selves as martyrs.’’ The most frightening thing about the Communists, as the Washington Post said recently, “is not so much what they can do J to us, but what we can do to ourselves if we listen to the counsel of the witch hunters.’’ In the time of emergency, there in all the more reason for people to keep thair heads.
