    Note

    Communist efforts among Puerto Ricans on the U.S. mainland are noted.  The trade journal "Billboard," the newly-formed Liberty Book Club, and "The Big Yankee" (a biography of Brigadier General Evans Carlson) are the targets of this weeks attacks on communism.  The Daily Worker is attacked for giving a new, self-serving definition of patriotism, while the newsletter urges strong support for our nation, despite the setbacks in China.  The Communist Party policy of self-determination for Negroes in the South is denounced as a plan to tear our nation apart.  The paper also attempts to destroy the stereotypes of communists, because too many people do not take the threat seriously.
