...expulsions from the Party. When one comrade wishes to denounce another comrade, he writes out his charges, sends them to Comrade Dirba. Comrades may denounce each other as police spies, wreckers, Trotskyites, Lovestoneites, grafters, stool pigeons, for spreading stories about the central committee, for social fascism, for individualism, for anti-Party tendencies, for rotten liberalism, rotten intellectualism, conciliationism, for having personal relations with Trotskyites, for white chauvinism, for Zionism, irresponsible Bohemianism-for innumerable heresies whose very names sound weird in a democracy, but which operate to insure unquestioned obedience from members. These dread papers are pondered by Comrade Dirba...
...Governor James V. Allred, now a U. S. district judge, is debarred from anti-Garner campaigning by the Hatch Act (no politicking for Federal employes). The most sincere New Dealer of the lot, Maury Maverick, has got himself into political trouble in Texas by espousing free speech for Communists and letting the home folks think he has "gone national."

With supreme audacity the Freedom Station opened up in the early morning, broadcast as a straight news bulletin that the Allies had just agreed to an 18-day armistice, that the "Chamberlain...
...world into anxiety, as everyone will immediately realize, so that the campaign of lies of the English warmongers would find it easier to accomplish its dark plans." This plunged Germans into visible gloom, some weeping openly in the streets of Berlin. Thus in no uncertain fashion did the anti-Nazi Freedom Station show Adolf Hitler how jumpy were the nerves of his people, how desperate their longing for peace in spite of their great victory over Poland. The phenomenon of joy and grief also provided a fresh explanation for the Nazis' strange reluctance, if German arms are as formidable...
