tertained their out-of-town guests
at a reception in their beautifully
redecorated home at Ojus, Fla.,
Thursday evening, Feb. 27, from
7 until 9. Their palatial home
looked like a flower garden with
gorgeous flower arrangements
everywhere. Everyone stopped to
admire the beautiful orchids
growing on the porch. Upon en
tering the porch there were large
vases of red gladiolis on either
side of the French doors leading
into the living room where beauty
reigned supreme with roses and
carnations against a background
of pink walls. The dining room
was also elaborately decorated.
The table was really a thing of
beauty with its lace table cloth
laden with delicious hor d’ourves
nuts, candy, and delicious indivi
dual cakes. The center piece was
most unusual with variegated
sweet peas woven around the
punch bowl. The glass chandeliers
gave just the proper lighting for
this lovely party.
The gracious hostess, petite
Mrs. Alford, wore black crepe
with hand painted flowers.

were blond Mrs. Ruth Hines, in
white satin, and Mrs. Maude
Benbo also blond, dressed in

Letter From Lantaff
Dear Neighbor:
The other day your Conjfeso
man was asked his opinion of
the plans to investigate commun
ism in the schools.
One of the first things the
Communists have done when
they have taken over a country
is to take over the schools and
require the use of textbooks
which glorify Communism and
decry our democratic form of
government. When Hitler came
into power, he realized that he
had to train the youth through the
school system and he promptly
converted the youth of Germany
to the Nazi philosophy.
The international Communist
movement which seeks to sub
vert and destroy a Country iroin
within is just as important to
Russia as its vast armies and air
armadas. Now, it is true that un
der our Constitution, we are
guaranteed the right of freedom
of speech; but certainly our
Founding Fathers did not intend
that this freedom should serve as
a license to advocate the destruc- j
tion of our form of Government. !
Several prominent educators I
have objected to the proposed
Senate investigation of Commun
ist activities in the schools. I think
many of the fears voiced by
these people are prompted by the

fact that some of the members of
the Congress have adopted the
philosophy that it is better to
slander and ruin the reputation
of a few innocent people if, in
♦vr, o-irl they are successful in
fettering out a Communist. With
tn me of thinking, your Con-
violently disaerees.
While we should be vigilant to
detect uie activities of tne Com
munist Party in our educational
system, the job of turning the
spotlight on the Reds in this field
should be placed in the hands of
trained investigators who have
due respect for the rights of all
people. Whether the Federal,
state and local government should
initiate action to stamp out Com
munist abuse of freedom in the
school, is a matter for these gov
ernments to decide. In my opinion
an effort should be made to ar
rest the cancerous growth of
Communism throughout every
phase of our American Democ
racy but the investigation meth
od used should be one of hunting
Reds not harming Americans.
