During the conflict between
Joseph Stalin and Leon Trotsky
for control of the Communist ma-
chine in Russia in 1924, a blue-
print of world conquest was
drafted by the Stalinites. Stalin
wrested control from Trotsky
and later had him murdered. This
blueprint of conquest, according
to Dr. Fred Schwarz, the noted
Australian scholar on Commun-
is, calls for the conquering of
Asia first, then Africa, then West-
ern Europe, then “to isolate, de-
generate and, if necessary, deva-
state the United States.”
International Communism to-
day is following this blueprint,
Dr Schwarz said. He spoke at
the 16th Freedom Forum, con-
ducted by The National Educa-
tion program at Searcy, Arkansas.
He said the Communists use five
steps in their technique of con-
quering, and that they are con-
centrating at the present time in
Asia. The steps are:

Wreck Fatality
James Wright (Mickey) Arn-
wine, 16 year old son of Mr. and
Mrs. Nile Arnwine of the No-
bility community, was fatally in-
jured Thursday night when the
car he was driving i
on a farm-to-market
west of Wolfe City.
Larry Withrow, a passenger in
the car with Arnwine, was in-
jured and received treatment in
a Wolfe City hospital, later being
released. The boys were en-
route from Wolfe City to their
homes in the Nobility community
when the accident occurred.
Funeral services for young
Arnwine were held Saturday
afternoon at three o’clock in the
Crossroads Presbyterian church.
Interment was made in Cross-
roads Cemetery under direction
of Earnheart Funeral Home of
Whitewright.

Trenton school, was born
24, 1938, in the Desert commun-
ity in Collin County.

one brother, Bobby Arnwine,

The Communists are spending
billions on a massive literature
barrage which is being concen-
trated today on Asia, India and
Africa. These are the areas to-
ward which the Red masters are
aiming their conquest at the mo-
ment. It is authentically esti-
mated that they are spending
$300,000,000 a year in America on
books, pamphlets and projects to
infiltrate America’s mass media
of communication. Every writ-
ten and spoken line in this vast
thought-shaping campaign is
shrewdly calculated to engender
hate against America and the
American captitalistic system.
“There is being built up to-
wards this country — cold-blood-
ily, scientifically, efficiently — a
terrible body of deadly, burning
and malignant hatred that at the

Yes, we are engaged in a ti-
tanic battle for men’s minds.
And in the minds of our youth
the tide of battle will turn. Not
only is it necessary to spread
world-wide the truth about
America, it is even more urgent-
ly necessary that our own youth
know these facts and thrill to
their incomparable advantages
Bob Millsap, aerial duster, was
uninjured when he was forced to
land his plane while poisoning
corn on the Elmer Clark place
in Bois d’Arc bottom, Tuesday
morning.
Due to a carburetor air lock
the motor quit and Mr. Millsap
landed in a small pasture, break-
ing the right landing gear, of the
plane.
He expects his plane to be back
in use within the next ten days.
He has secured a plane that will

until his is repaired.

To Conquest
1. Conquest of the minds of the
youth by use of Communist-pre-
pared or Communist-infiltrated
books.
2. Organization of the intelli-
gentsia of those youth into the
Communist Party.
3. Scientific survey of
that particular country
then promise it to
instance, the Chinese coolies and
the socialist intellectuals wanted
land to be redistributed; the
Communists promised agrarian
reform.)
4. Conquest, war, and revolu-
tion.
5. Scientifically imposed con-
• trol by the dictatorship of the
proletariat. (This is accomp-
lished by destruction of those
who oppose the Party. Our U.
S. Government investigators
£X’have estimated that 30,000,000
Chinese have been murdered
since the Reds took over China.)
Dr. Schwarz believes that to
successfully combat Communism,
which has grown from 17 people
in 1903 to iron control of 900,000,-
000 today, the U. S. A. must con-
duct a positive educational and
propaganda program, among the
youth of the world, clearly show-
ing and dramatizing the advan-
tages of private ownership of
property, self-reliance, constitu-
tional government and, above all,
faith in God.
During the meeting of the
North Texas Annual Conference
of the Methodist Church, which
is now in session at the First
Methodist Church in Dallas, the
Rev. Edwin Porter will be hon-
ored by a special presentation of
the play, “Pqpa Was A Preach-
er.”
This play was adapted from
the best selling book, “Papa Was
A Preacher,” written by Alyene
Porter, daughter of Rev. Porter.
Rev. Porter is known by
thousands of people in Texas as
a Methodist preacher but he is
known by people all over the]
world as the parson and father of
eight children in “Papa Was a
Preacher.”
Through the writing of his
daughter, people the world over
know him as Papa, who shined
sixteen shoes on Saturday nights
and never bought gas or gro-
ceries on Sunday.
He has been a member of the
North Texas Conference for 54
years. He is one of the found-
ers of Southern Methodist Uni-
versity and helped to build Cen-
•enary Methodist Church in Dal-
las.
All eight of Papa Porter’s chil-
dren graduated from college.
Two sons, Hugh and Raybon, en-
tered the ministry. The eldest,
Rev. Hugh Porter, died in 1946.
Rev. Raybon Porter is minister of
education at First Methodist
Church, Wichita Falls. The sec-
ond son, Cecil, is executive at
Lover’s Lane Church, Dallas.
The others are active law work-
ers in their local churches.
Rev. Porter pastored the Meth-
odist Church in Leonard about
the years 1918-1920. His five
youngest children attended
Leonard public school. One in-
cident about which the daughter
wrote transpires from the cupola
of the present church.
Edd, one of the sons, married
a Leonard girl, the former Miss
Babe Regney. Their friendship
started while both were students
in H. S. They now live in
Kansas City, Mo., and are the
parents of two sons, now young
men. x
The public is invited to attend
the conference which will attract
over 600 delegates and hundreds
of visitors. The presentation of
the play by the Red Cross Play-
ers of the First Methodist Church
in Dallas will be Saturday, June
4 at 8 p. m.
to San Angelo for a
visit.
