"THE
CANADIANS"
Speaking at the annual nom-
ination night banquet of Clin-
ton Legion, of which he has
been padre for some years,
Rev, D, 3. Lane, D.D., said,
"Communism cannot be stop-
ped by military force alone;
the only way to destroy Com-
munism is by an alternate
idea."
He began the main part of
his talk asking "De we really
know what Communism. is?"
Then went on to explain why
it is increasing in the world
today, lie told how they ex-
plait the hungry and down-
trodden races and countries. It
indoctrinates their members
with the non-existence of God',
The padre later asked, "are
our anti-Communistic groups
suppressing Communism in the
right way?" The only way to
destroy it is by an alternate
idea, he said.
"The alternative to belief in
a Godless scheme is to believe
in God as strongly and as
bravely as the Communist be-
lieves in his scheme," said the
padre. When we accept this
in the free world, Communism
will be swallowed up in this
alternative," he stated,
Mr. Lane reminded the vet-
erans that it is up to groups
like • this to accept the chal-
lenge to defeat Communism as
we have accepted other chal-
lenges in the past.
Before Mr. Lane began his
talk on Communism he re-
quested the Clinton Legion to
consider two other proposals
The first was that the Legion
take a look at civic and ex-
