Liberty terms, like “liberty”, “justice”, and “freedom” mean different things to different people, « and of course in reality have many meanings. For example, to a man who has nothing, and, under his present system can never expect to have anything, “liberty” means the freedom to make a change from the "have not” class to the “have” class. Yet to the property holder, “liberty” may mean the freedom to do exactly as he pleases, regardless of its consequences to others. A good example is the John Birch Society. They believe in individual freedom, free enterprise, decentralization of authority, and limited government. They claim that these are traditional American ideas, and should be retained. Most of us in America believe that every American has a right to his own opinion, and has the right to-support his opinion by argument, by ballot, and by public office. Most of us believe that any idea supported by Americans, which does not encourage the overthrow of our own government by force, is automatically whether we believe in that idea, or not. Can people honestly deny that Eugene V. Debs was an American? Debs represented the left-wing radicals at the turn of the century, but was as American as apple pie. Now, Robert Welch openly states that he does not differentiate between communism, domestic collectivism, socialism, liberals, or left-wingers. And this is taken from the September 25, 1961, Congressional Record, page A7720, column three, from an article submitted by John H. Rousselot, an admitted member of the society, and a member of Congress. Welch calls all of these men, and we quote, “Communists in sheep’s clothing — or ‘Communist dupes’.” In addition, point seven of their ten-point operation plan, is “Heckle Communists and other opposition speakers at meetings.” Can you honestly imagine a real American — such as George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, or Benjamin Franklin — seriously considering heckling the opposition in their meetings, just because a they believe differetly? Americans represent many different groups, different religions, different ideas. No one idea is right for everyone. We believe that everyone has a right to their opinion. But to call a man a “Communist” just because he has ideas that conflict with yours is insane, pointless, and dangerous. There was nothing liberal about Russia, or China, when they fell to Communism. They just had rotten dictatorships. And a group whose motto is “This country ia a Republic and not a Democracy — let's keep it that way,” is hardly headed in an effective anti-Communist direction. If America is to remain free of Communism it can only do so by seeing that every American becomes a capitalist, and shares in the great wealth of this country. Heckling your opposition at their own meetings is hardly a publicly acceptable form of Republican or Democratic governmental practice, is it? editorial Writer Today Dick D. Heller, Jr.

Charges Port Site Political Alliance CHARGES PORT SITE FORT WAYNE, Ind. (UPI) — An attorney (or opponents of a Lake Michigan polrt at Burns Ditch charged today the site was “firmly selected by an unwhole* ' some political alliance in Indi--1 ana.” • . } Leonard Rutstein, Chicago, rept resenting the Save - the - Dunes Council, Inc., said the site was selected before the Indiana Port j Commission Act was written and 2 enacted by the 1901 Legislature. Rutstein’s statement was re* leased by the council’s public re- ) lations office here, coinciding r with a meeting of the Indiana Port Commission at Fort Wayne today. The commission was scheduled to discuss revenue possibilities which may be expected if the state begins construction of the port without waiting for congressional approval of federal participation. Rutstein said the Burns Ditch ’ site, choice of the commission s and man Hoosier political lead- * ers, is a “discriminatory product of an unwholesome political al--5 liance.” 1 “Omission of the exact spot for 1 an Indiana harbor in the 1961 s Port Commission Act is a. transparent but deceptive camouflage designed to hide the intent of the law,” Rutstein said '‘Every effort is being made by these politicians to exclude all other possible locations regard--1 less of how beneficial they may 2 be,” he said. s New York Stock !

Food Shortages And Dissension In Cuba
(EDITOR’S NOTE: Nearing the end of his third year of power, Fidel Castro is facing increasing problems in bringing about communtsaUon of Cubs, la the folio wing dispatch Milton C«rr, ; who has reported Latin American affairs for 17 years and recently returned from a month in Havana, pinpoints growing dissension and Castro’s counter-measures.) By MILTON CARR United Press International , A painting was hung recently in the lobby of the National Bank of Cuba. It depicts an attack eight years ago on an army barracks, marking the start of Fidel Castro’s campaign to overthrow the government of Fulgencio Batista. In the painting are Castro, his brother, Raul, and others who took part in the July 26, 1953, attack. In the upper left hand corner are crossed Cuban and Communist flags. This is a measure of the extent to which Castro and his associates have gone in the swing, no longer disguised, of Cuba to communism. Cuba fcxiay is a country beset by food shortages, inefficiency and growing dissension. Shortages, which have become more acute in recent weeks, have set people to grumbling—particularly the housewives who spend much of their time standing in line for food and other essential items. Castro’s move Jo communism has given many Cubans cause for second thoughts about their national hero. But the bearded prime iminister still enjoys the support of a large segment of the population and he has taken the necessary measures to prevent those who do not agree with him from doing anything about it. With each passing day, Castro adds to his stockpile of weapons which already exceeds that of any other Latin American country. His internal network of spies, inform- ; ers and political commissars is growing, along with his armed forces. Each residential block and each center of employment has its Committee for the Defense of the Revolution (CDRt, a group of five persons whose function it is to spy

on their neighbors and fellowworkers. By recent official count there were more than 100,000 such committees in Cuba—half a million informers in an island of 6 million inhabitants. Houses are searched without warning, often late at night, and their occupants carted off to jail if a weapon or anything suspicious is found. A letter from a person outside of Cuba, a name in an address book, a short-wave radio might be enough “evidence” of counter-revolutionary activity. Jails and prisons are so crowded that many prisoners sleep on bare floors. In this atmosphere, the oncehappy, fun-loving Cuban is forgetting how to smile. Doctors report an in the number of patients with nervous disorders. Violent arguments erupt on the streets and sidewalks over incidents that normally would have gone unnoticed. One thing that strikes the returning visitor to Havana is the impression of general inefficiency under the socialist system. Service in nationalized stores, hotels and restaurants has deteriorated markedly. Waiters and clerks appear sullen, with no desire to serve or sell. Many of the present storages, aside from those items formerly imported from the United States, can be attributed to inefficiency in government handling of agricultural and industrial production. The government explanation is (hat more people are consuming more under the socialist system. nr § SINUS Get quick relief. 1 tablet taste up to 8 hours. Ends needless suffering from sinus congestion.
