Well it's just as easy to make another feel good, as It is to make him miserable. It does affect our lives. We are so comfortably con-fidrnt in our democratic beliefs, so assured that a majority is the one activating force. We were surprised when it was proved that certain individuals had lieen playing fast and loose with accepted loyalties: It seemed to us a breach of hospitality and of good sense and we were satisfied when some of the offenders were jailed for their activities. We saw these things as incidents, not as symptoms. There were no communist, among our friends and the leftish-minded among them )e indulged, as we would indulge other small peculiarities. We never doubted that the great bulk of our people were sensible, and serious-minded. That in itself was ample protection. Sure in our democratic faith, we never doubted that the majority will always be.sound. All that does credit to our heart, if not to our iatf lligence.

That is a trick of democracy. Communism plans to make minorities tlTective. Nowhere in the world is communism a majority cause. It is not so in Russia where it represents perhaps the thinking of 5', of a docile people. It was not the majority thinking of Hungary or Roumania, or Poland or Yugoslavia. In Czechoslovakia communists control W, of the parliamentary seats. Years ago Kduard Henes spoke for his people and democracy and lost to Hitler's demands Only a short while ago he spoke for them again, this time as president. Democracy, he said, is "the only reliable and durable basis for a decent and dignified life." Two days later he had to' bow to the will of the communist minority, backed by the power of Moscow. In Finland communism had to team up with the Socialist Unionists to secure a bare 51 per cent of parliamentary Votes. Too dangerous a union, we wojuld say, to cause any trouble, liut the tactics are the same. Elsewhere they have given minorities the necessary advantage. If these tactics succeed again, as fev doubt that they will, Stalin can reckon a quarter of the area of Europe, added to his boundaries, and a quar ter of its people subject to his command. Where ist the next move?. Where are the communist minorities ready' to .move? When will even we realize that the time to meet a threat is while it is still weak?
