...founded three years ago by retired Massachusetts Candymaker (Welch's Fudge and Sugar Daddy) Robert Welch, 62. So suspicious that he often denounces shuffling or coughing in his audience as "a dirty Communist trick," Welch has a gift for such phrases as "Comsymp." which he uses as a label for many who disagree with him, and a talent for such slander as describing Dwight Eisenhower as "a conscious agent of the Communist conspiracy."

In June, by a 5-4 decision, the court ordered...
...Stalin stands atop a 40-ft. base, flanked by eight slightly smaller figures representing workers, soldiers, scientists. Instead of bothering to demolish the colossus, people were whispering in Prague cafés last week that Comrade Novotny could simply cut off the heads of the eight statues and label the edifice: "In memory of the victims of Stalinism...
