DO YOU REALLY HAVE A
LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP?
There are many advantages
in obtaining a lifetime mem-
bership. If you can’t think
of any, just ask the salesman
at some of the local health
spas, dance studios, or ath-
letic clubs. He will tell you
that this form of membership
conveys the highest status,
insures maximum benefits to
the purchaser, and constitutes
the most economical form of
membership.
But what are the disadvant-
ages of the lifetime member-
ship? A lifetime membership
is only as good as the com-
pany which stands behind it.
The company may not remain
in business throughout your
lifetime and your member-
ship then becomes a piece of
worthless paper. Every year
businesses go bankrupt
leaving people stranded with
services they have paid for
but cannot obtain. Even if they
remain in business their faci-
lities may be allowed to de-
teriorate. Another problem
arises when the purchaser

The Major Ones
In recent years in America,
the most important organiza-
tion for both Soviet and
Chinese Communism has been is the fourth dimension.
the “peace" movement led
by David Dellinger, who has
described himself as a “non-
Soviet Communist” but who
has been identified in most of
the press merely as a “paci-
fist” leader. Dellinger’s
“Mobilization for Peace” out-
fit has been able, with Commu-
nist and non-Communist back-
ing, to mobilize as many as
500,000 people in Washington
and at times virtually mono-
. polize television newscasts and
I other media. When a year ago
I the Communist domination of
the “peace” demonstrations
began to be widely recognized,
the Reds who pulled the
strings decreed dissolution of
the old “peace" apparatus and
| formation of a new one. The
“National Peace Action Coali-
tion” was formed, and out of
this grew the “Peoples Coali- r
tion for Peace and Justice,’’ x’Nocom, Is completing his
