Secondly, the F.R.D. is assisting the brave men and women of
Cuba who are resisting the Communists in various ways. President
Kennedy has described this as paramilitary measures which
cripple these enemies of Freedom without all of the bloodshed and
destruction normally associated with such terms as "sabotage' and
"guerilla warfare"
SHOULD THE U.S. GOVERNMENT DO THIS WORK?
Emphatically "No!" Such activity on the part of the U.S.
Government at this time would be considered as interference in
the internal affairs of another country. Likewise, it could
easily be propagandized as "Yankee Imperialism" a term we are all
tired of hearing. The present structure of U.S. Law precludes
such activity at this time.
Statements by both the President and the Attorney General,
however, encourage Americans, as private individuals, to contribute
and assist this type of effort.
A' people-to-people" movement similar to "Freedom Train", the
"Freedom Balloons' and "Radio Free Europe", CARE is wisest at
this time.
HOW CAN THE AVERAGE AMERICAN HELP?
First, become informed on the dangers to YOU from Communism.
Carefully read vital information, such as that published by
J. Edgar Hoover, and other dedicated Americans fighting Communism.
Secondly, let your Congressmen know your feelings and concern.
Third, by contributing MONEY. Napoleon once said that "Three
things are needed to fight a war: money, Money and MONEY"
THE CHRISTIAN BASIS OF THE WORK OF THE FRONT
Communism represents an "unjust aggressor" who teaches
atheism, attacks the structure of the family, tries to deprive man
of natural rights. We are obliged in conscience, therefore, to
resist such attacks on the freedom of man, the individual, the
family, and God.
YOUR HELP IS NEEDED NOW!
Cuba is only 90 miles from the U.S. In Cuba many Russian
Mig jets are now based. In addition there are IREM rocket bases
with missiles aimed at American cities. Thus, Communist Cuba
is a loaded, cocked revolver pointed at the countries of the
Western Hemisphere.
Through Cuba the Communists are pouring millions of dollars
into the Latin countries in an effort to subvert them. The
Communists have already hit your pocketbook, not only in added
defense spending, but in decreased foreimn trade. Tomorrow it
may be your life! This is the 'Eleventh Hour" - tomorrow may be
too late for you to take action.
Krushchev has said "I will bury you". The gravediggers
are already in Cuba, waiting for the signal.
