COMMUNIST PROPAGANDA
ACTIVE THROUGHOUT THE WORLD SECRET EXHIBITION IN VATICAN Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, October 5. (Received October 6, at 11 a.m.) The ‘ Morning Post’s ’ Rome correspondent describes a secret exhibition at the Vatican, where selected persons are shown proofs of Communist propaganda collected throughout tho world, revealing the church’s unsleeping vigilance against its most dangerous enemy. Tho first impression on passing the heavily-curtained doorway is of the entrance into Moscow’s Ministry of Propaganda. A lifelike effigy of Lenin, placed on a red-sheeted rostrum, points fiercely to rooms containing proofs of his policy for exterminating existing society, and uprooting religion, including a copious display of open and clandestine periodicals circulating in both hemispheres. The display reveals the far flung co-ordination of Moscow, disclosing methods of approaching different national mentalities. It also shows tho Russian genius, psychology, and opportunism in exploiting local grievances. The recent intensification of propaganda in Spain is most notable.
