...circulation of Hearst's newspapers must be falling off. The New York American has evidently found the Collegiate red scare insufficient and has therefore added a Fascist or "black" scare to its already horror-stricken editorial page. All in the same breath, with no hint of the fact that in itself it has recently been driving towards Fascism, it now violently and somewhat ludicrously attacks both Communism and Fascism in the schools and colleges.
