EVERYDAY COUNSELOR To you, the readers of this col umn, I pass on the thought-pro- bo king and even terrifying de scription of total commitment to the Communist cause. It is part of a letter which a young Com munist sent to a friend of his back in the United States. It ap peared in the “Presbyterian Sur vey,” and came to me In re-print form from the "Sponsor,’’ a ra dio- and TV magazine through the kindness of Mr. Charles Crutchfield of the Jefferson Standard Broadcasting Co. It is headed, “. . . a total commitment designed to enslave a total world.’’ “A young Communist writes . . . ’What seems of first impor tance to you is to me either not desirable or impossible of relaiza- tion. But there is one thing about which I am in dead earnest—and that is the socialist cause. It is my life, my business, my relig ion, my hobby, my sweetheart, wife, and mistress, my bread and meat. I work at it in the daytime and dream of it at night. Its hold on me grows, not lessens, as time goes on. I’ll be in it the rest of my life. It is my alter-ego. When you think of me, it is necessary to think of socialism as well, be cause I’m inseparably bound to it. ‘Therefore, I can’t carry on a friendship, a love affair, or even a conversation without relating it to this force which both drives and guides my life. I evaluate people, books, ideas, and notions according to how they affect the socialist cause and by their atti tude toward it. ‘I have already been in jail be cause of my ideas, and if neces sary, lam ready to go before a firing squad.

A genuine radical lives la virtual poverty. He turns back to the party every penny he makes above what is absolutely neces sary to keep him alive. We con stantly look for places where the claes struggle is the sharpest, ex ploiting these situations to tbs limit of their possibilities. We lead strikes. We organise demon strations. We speak on street cor ners. We fight cops. We go through trying experiences many times each year which the ordi nary man has to face only once or twice In a lifetime. ‘And when we’re not doing these more exciting things, all our spare time is taken up with dull routine chores, endless leg work, errands, etc., which are Inesca pably connected with a live or ganization. ‘Radicals don’t have the time nor the money for many movies or concerts or T-bone steaks or decent homes and new cars. We’ve been described as fanatics. We are. Our lives are dominated by one great overshadowing fac tor—the struggle for socialism. Well, that’s what my life Is going to be. That’s the black side of it. Then there is the other side of It. We Communists have a philoso phy of life which no amount of money could buy. We have a cause to fight for, a definite pur pose in life. We subordinate our petty personal selves Into a great movement of humanity. We have a morale, an espirit de corps such as no capitalist army ever had; we have a code of conduct, • way of lift, dtvettea to ear cam ‘ we are guided not by blind, fa natical faith but by logic and rea son, by a never-ending education of study and practice. ’And if our pereonal lives seem hard or onr agio appear to i through subordination to the party, then we are adequately compensated by the thought that each of us is in his small way helping to contribute eomething new and true, something bettor to mankind’.” Use The Chronicle Want Ads They Get Results!
