CLEAN-OUT URGED
AUSTRALIAN REDS MR. MENZIES’ WARNING DANCER IN EVENT OF WAR (N.Z.P.A.—Reuter— Copyright.) (11 am.) MELBOURNE. March 13. ■’The Communists are a. prospective fifth column in the event of war with Russia and they must be treated as public enemies,” said the leader of the Liberal Party, Mr. R. G. Menzies, in an address to a Liberal Party rally. “It is time we took the big broom of the Government and swept a few of them into the sea.”
Mr. Menzies said the Hollway Government in Victoria had stood up to the Communists and had beaten them, but the Chifley Government had never even fought them. What Australia needed was a Government in Canberra to tell the Communists where they got off.
