Railway Strike
Sir, —“By the Wayside” should not have used the word “today,” because I have always blamed the Communist element for censuring Mr Armstrong. It was this band of Reds who called the F.O.L.S attention to Mr Armstrong’s statements. These Communists care nothing for the welfare of the workers because in Russia the worker is a slave; bound in body and in mind to the atheistic State. TTiere would have been no Communists in the railwaymen’s union if the members attended their meetings and spoke their minds. Has “By the Wayside” ever read the anti-F.O.L. and Communist leaflets distributed by Communists and their fellowtravellers to railwaymen on their way to their jobs? If he can obtain some and study them he will find that only lip-service is paid to the FO.L. by Mr Armstrong’s Communist critics.—Yours, etc., DISILLUSIONED NATIONALIST. February 7, 1963. [This correspondence may now cease.—Ed., “The Press.”]
