Show "Red" Threat To America ToldbyMeik 'There will not be another war" predicted Vivian Melk, world famed news analyst, when he spoke before the citizens of Cedar City Monday evening in the First ward chapel. However, he made his prediction predic-tion with the reservation that Americans wake up and learn what Communism really is. He sal dthat knowledge is the strongest weapon we have and that it is the duty of everyone to find out more about this threat to our peace and security. Mr. Meik warned, that if we find out what we are up against,, we will be able to put into pow-er pow-er those people who will fight for us. Russia has nothing comparable compara-ble to America, said Mr. Meik. However, if America does not keep the leadership today, there will not be another war, but a massacre. The world will go back 1,000 years. Mr. Meik went on to explain the operations of Communists and said that their aim had not changed, but was still "world domination" with America Ameri-ca as the first target. He re-emphaslzed his point that knowledge and leadership were the strongest weapons we have against communistic inroads in-roads in the United States which are already evident throughout the country and even to some ex-tent ex-tent In Utah. Mr. Melk quoted often from excerpts of House Document 619. He said that all his statements were supported by facts f rom this document. Anyone desiring i to know what communism is try-: ing to do, and what it is doing' In this country has only to read this small booklet which is available avail-able free of charge. This knowl-edge knowl-edge will go far toward averting avert-ing another war, he said. This Is the second time In a little over a year that people in this area have had the privilege of hearing Mr. Melk speak. As a result of his previous visit, people peo-ple of southern Utah got together in sending packages to the air raid victims of a London school. The teacher who had been recommended rec-ommended by Mr. and Mrs. Melk to handle the packages, Kathleen Gorst, was also present and told of some of her experiences during dur-ing the war. She thanked the people in Cedar City for their ."wonderful" gifts, and said that i there were 750 children back in , England who wanted her to give their thanks to the people of Cedar City. Following the meeting, the Meiks and Miss Gorst were guests at a reception in the LDS Institute, which the public was invited to attend. |
