COMMUNIST TARGET:
YOUNG lNTKLLKUTUAU*
In every country in the work!
vhich the Communists have
conquered, their first step has
been the conquest of the stu-
dent mind with hooks. This
statement comes from one of
the world’s outstanding scho-
lars on the subject, Dr. Fred
Schwarz, the Australian sur-
geon-psychiatrist who left his
profession several years ago to
crusade against Communism
throughout the free world. He
siHike recently at the liith Free-
dom Forum, conducted by The
National Education Program at
Searcy, Arkansas.
In the Communist technique
of conquering, the colleges and
universities are the first target
— faculty and students.

Dr. Schwarz said, “the funda-
mental battle is for the minds
of the young Intellectuals. They
are the elite. They must plant
the seeds and lead the revolu-
tion, capturing the masses to he
used as the pawns of Communl-
nism. And yet few people un-
derstand and recognize this
fact. We've misdiagnosed Com-
munism as a disease of the peer,
originating in poverty, with a
natural corollary that to treat
it we've got to improve econo-
mic conditions.
Intellectual Fountain head
"Now don’t misunderstand
me; God bless every improve-
ment in economic conditions!
Hut if we think we’re going to
stop Communism in that way
we're fantastically deluded. And
yet, that idea underlies prob-
ably IK) percent of what is be-
ing done. A highly educated
man said to me: ‘No man ever
became a Communist on a full
stomach!” 1 said I could men-
tion one or two: Karl Marx,
Frederick Engels, Nikolay Len-
in, Josef Stalin, Malenkov, Molo-
tov, Bulganin, Khrushchev, Mao
Tse-tung, Ho Chi Minh, Alger
Hiss, Frederick Vanderbilt
Field, Whitaker Chambers—in
fact every major world Com-
munist figure that’s ever been!
“Everyone of them, without a
single known exception, who
became a Communist in a non-
Communist country, became
one, not as a poor man, not as
a working man, not as a son of
toil, hut as a student intellec-
tual, materialistic in philosophy
and atheist in faith. Commu-
nism emerges not out of the
ranks of the workers and the
poor but out of the ranks of
the Godless and the educated.
And while we misdiagnose it,
we're bound to mistreat it as
a disease.’’
Flood of Literature
The Communists, working
from their Moscow citadel, are
distributing great masses of
literature throughout the
world, to the public and par-
ticularly to the colleges and
universities. It is designed care-
fully, emphasized Dr. Schwarz,
to shape the minds of young
intellectuals. Ami Communist
Fifth Columnists have subtly
infiltrated the literature pub-
lished outidde Russia, in every
other nation. “They have con-
trol,” he said, “over the
thoughts, the ideas, the beliefs
of 75 percent of the people of
the worll outside their own
limits.”
He presented documentary
evidence of Communist manu-
factured literature. He showed,
for instance, that Problems of
Leninism, a beautifully-bound,
expensive 803-page Communist
classic printed in English in
Moscow, is being sold for 10
cents per copy in Japan; 70
cents, in the U. S. A. He said
that in the universities of Ja-
pan such hooks were provided
free and were lieing used “to
teach young Japanese intellec-
tuals how to read and speak
English! Their minds become
moulded into the Communist
pattern, and they are elicited to
the revolution.” This same Com-
munist scheme is active in
India. Indonesia—and in every
country toward which the Com-
munists, at the moment, are
moving, Dr. Schwarz said.
Proof in India
This recalled to my mind
the excellent series of articles
on India written last winter by
Carl T. Rowan, Minneapolis
Tribune reporter. Rowan, a
Negro, spent four months In
India. He found Communism
deeply embedded In the univer-
sities. He found few Reds
among India’s poor, After tour-
ing India, he wrote that he had
“seen the hammer and sickle
waving in only a few villages.”
“It was the disgruntled, un-
happy among the educated,” he
said, “whom I had heard sing-
ing the praise of Communism."
“Some important Indian
army people told me,” wrote
Rowan, "that the Communists
can paralyze the heart of India
in an invasion, just by using
college students. . . . The of-
ficers pointed out that in re-
cent months the Communists
had shown that they pretty
well coptrol certain key col-
leges in India.” I recall also
the recent tragic slaying of
Gene Symonds, the United
Press Southeast Asia manager,
as he sought to cover a Com-
munist-led political riot in Sing-
apore. Leaders of the riot, ac-
cording to press dispatches,
were university students. Sy-
monds was beaten to death.
