_[?]ina Wright_
[?]eds Map Program to Destroy Youth
As the eyes and ears of an entire world were [?]ed this past week on the
trial of Francis Pow-[?] [?]n Russia, I was reminded of a report that
news-[?] [?]r George Putnam sent me several months ago. [?] following is
an excerpt from "Brainwashing," [?]ussian textbook on psycho-politics as
used in [?] training of Red agents.
By making readily available drugs of various kinds; [?]ving the teenagers
of America alcohol; by praising wildness; by stimulating him with
literature, and advertising to him or [?]er, practices as taught as
sex-poll," [?] psychopolitical operator can create [?] necessary attitude
of chaos, idle-[?] and worthlessness into which can [?]n be cast the
solution which will give [?] teenager complete freedom every-[?]re.
"If we can (and I am again refer-[?]g to the Communist Manifesto)
ef-[?]tively kill the national pride and [?]riotism of just one generation
we will [?]ve won that country. Therefore, there must be con-[?]ual
propaganda abroad to undermine the loyalty of [?]e citizens in general,
but the teenager in particular."
This frightful plan of American destruction is con-[?]ned in the Communist
textbook, "Brainwashing," as [?]sed in the training of all Communist
agents in this [?]ntry. It certainly should be circulated in every
Parent-[?]acher Association, every church, and every school [?]hroughout
America.
