Bear Hits and Runs

Priest Draws Grim Picture of U. S. Under Red Rule

ST. PAUL (UP)—The United States, on the brink of famine, is seized by Moscow-directed Communists who first stir up riots, strikes and religious preju-dice on a nation-wide scale. The downfall of democracy is swift, complete—and simple. That is the picture shown in "Is This Tomorrow?" a comic-book type of publication—one edi-tion only—released by a St. Paul Catholic priest as part of his continuing campaign against Com-munism. The Rev. Louis A. Gales draws a grim picture in his 48-page booklet, the way of warning young Americans what they would face under a Communist dictatorship. Aims at Expose The booklet ends on a depress-ing note with no solution offered, but even now editorial succes is underway in a sequel, "This Is the Answer," currently on Father Gales' planning desk. Since before the war, the priest has engaged in a fight against Communism and all other forms of totalitarianism. He does it from his office in the Catechetical Guild Education Society, publish-ing house of Catholic teaching aids. Father Gales' field has been the fertile minds of young people, where he feels the seeds of de-mocracy must be planted firmly to prevent the spread of author-itarian principles. During the war, the Guild sus-pended its anti-Communist pub-lications "because of the compli-cated international set-up." Solution Coming Up "But in the light of today's events," Father Gales said, "we feel we must resume. We should use every strength to expose the aims and purposes of the Soviet system." "This Is the Answer," will de-pict what its publisher terms a "rational organization of the social-economic life" as opposed to a Communist system and will discuss social justice. It will condemn working mothers, child labor and heavy taxes, as democ-racy-weakeners. The booklet will champion liv-ing wages for all, private prop-erty, balanced prices and profit sharing. "We're not pulling any of our punches," Father Gales said.
