Feds Map Program to Destroy Youth
As the eyes and ears of an entire world were glued this past
week on the trial of Francis Pow-[?] in Russia, I was reminded of a
report that newsman Mr George Putnam sent me several months ago.
The following is an excerpt from "Brainwashing," Russian textbook
on psycho-politics as used in the training of Red agents.
By making readily available drugs of various kinds; giving the
teenagers of America alcohol; by praising wildness; by stimulating
him with literature, and advertising to him or her, practices as
taught as sex-poll," the psychopolitical operator can create the
necessary attitude of chaos, idleness and worthlessness into which
can then be cast the solution which will give the teenager complete
freedom every-where.
"If we can (and I am again referring to the Communist Manifesto)
effectively kill the national pride and patriotism of just one
generation we will have won that country. Therefore, there must be
continual propaganda abroad to undermine the loyalty of the
citizens in general, but the teenager in particular."
This frightful plan of American destruction is contained in the
Communist textbook, "Brainwashing," as used in the training of all
Communist agents in this country. It certainly should be circulated
in every Parent-Teacher Association, every church, and every school
throughout America.
