You assert, Mr. Editor, that a man must be wilfully blind, who does not admit that Russian Cemmunism is more evil than either Fascism or Hitlerism. You state the sickening succession of political murders in the Soviet is its own condemnation. __â€"Marvin Sayers. Editor‘s Note:â€"The writer of the above has just as much love for fascism as The Advance has. The Advan:te beâ€" lieves that Canada and the rest of the British Empire ghould tolerate neither fascism nor the communism from which it springs. As for conditions in Russia, The Advance has had opportunity to have prcofs of the deplorable condiâ€" tions in Russia from sources that are not open to question. These coincide very closely with the pronouncements made by Col. Drew. If the letter writâ€" er really believes that Bernard Shaw and Mr. and Mrs. Webb are notable intellectuals, then The Advance °xâ€" presses its regret and disappointment. As for the trials in Soviel Russia now as an intellectual rates somewhat beâ€"| low the illustrious H. G. Wells, Bernâ€"| ard Shaw, Beatrice and Sydney Webb.l Rertrand Russel and other hereticsâ€"| who have the audacity to admit conâ€"| crete progress in all fields of endeavour ; since the revolution. l It is farcital and idictic to deny the| transformation of a backward and | illiterate nation to its present status| as one of the great powers of the earth.| There is no responsible intellectual on! earth with the temerity to deny the} pregress of Soviet Russia. True enough that country is far from being the Utopia that its adherents claim. Still, nevertheless progress permeates the nationâ€"and it is Gdefinitely forging| ahead. | I disagree. We do not denounce a democratic country because it chastises law breakers, and executes murderers in its midst. So with the Soviet Union â€"in its punishment of the dastardly traitors in its midst. As for Fascism or Hitlerism being supericr to Communism â€" it all deâ€" pends, Mr. Editor, from what angle perceived. Russia wants to be left alone to work out its salvation. The fascist nations are again breathing idiotic platitude about their destiny of contro‘ling the werld. Their destiny can best be attained by peace and not by war. Ancther world war instigated by them will result in their utter destruction. You remark, Mr. Editor, that some day a Zola will arise to bring the facts before the world and men condemned in Moscow as iwraitors will be proven to have some redeeming traits. Perâ€" hapsâ€"but frankly I doubt it. You quote Col. George A. Drew as authority for the statement that there are more prisoners in one concentration camp near Moscow than in all the German and Italian concentration camps under Fascism. Since his return from Europe Col. Drew has engaged in a continental and persistent attack on Soviet Russia. Nevertheless the esteemable Colonelâ€" can any reasonable person consider them as anything but farcical. It may be ‘that some of those accused are guilty, but it is ridiculous on its face to imagine that all are guilty in thei% way inditated. It is true that other nations have trials for treason, but cerâ€" tainly not on the wholesale scale that is apparent in Russia. The point The Advance was making in the editorial was that no matter which alternative was taken the Soviet was in deplorbale state. There is a growing belief that most of the alleged traitors are simply "framed" to satisfy the spites and amâ€" bitions cf those in power. But the other alternative i< equally deplorable. Surely it is a hopeless thing if (as the writer above suggests) men who were prominent in establishing the communâ€" ist state in Russia have been carrying on wholesale sabotage and treason. In either case, something is deplorably wrong, and Canadians and other Briâ€" tishers surely should abhor beliefs (or lack of beliefs) that breed such horrors. â€"Editor The Advance.
