Abstract

It Seems to Heywood Broun

Broun, Heywood | January 15, 1930 issue

There is nothing essentially childish in communism. Individuals of high intelligence have been the adherents of its cause. The Communist frankly admits his desire to overthrow the existing governmental and economic structure by force. Nobody can legislate the right of revolution out of existence. When one revolutionist is strong enough to effect his coup he will hardly be restrained because of some statute in a book. If no check is put upon Communist propagandists the cause may gain sufficient converts to become a realistic menace in the country.
