| Summary, etc. | Rotarian Gerard Price comes from Helena, Montana; but when he spoke as our guest speaker last Thursday on what goes on behind the iron curtain, he spoke as the man who came from Albania. No other man could have spoken to us on the subject of Communism better than Rotarian Gerard Price did, not only because his career and position has given him extraordinary opportunities to gather first hand materials right from the fields but also because his personal convictions include an ardent support of democracy against communism. All of us can be ardent supporters of Communism in our own ways, but Rotarian Gerard is ardent as only the man who saw Communism in action can be. From personal experience he gave us a practical interpretation of what we merely read about in books. Giving facts and statistics, he presented a hairraising picturization of what can be a government run by Committees; 2 principles lived by automatons, a system based on censorship and accusers and a moral system executed by immoral machines that call themselves men. He showed us how a doctrine beginning from one noble and honest desire to improve the lot of the masses can swing to a dangerous extreme as to.end up in callusing the hearts of these same masses. He pointed out how, what is so moral in principle can be frightfully immoral in practice when executed by people obsessed to blindness with insidious propaganda. In so doing, Rotarian Gerard Price gave us a working comprehension of what threatens to be the main danger to democracy in the present and immediate future. Because the headlong fight between the two ideologies promises to be inevitable, the importance of Rotarians like Gerard Price can never quite be properly appreciated.
