The piece cites a Warsaw based Communist paper Tworczosz claiming the White House is building a replica of Hitler's Brown House and five concentration camps are ready to trap noble spirits. It accuses Eisenhower of wearing Hindenburg's old uniform and Senator McCarthy of repairing a bloody brown rag, arguing this shows no real Soviet desire for peace.

The lesson: broad opportunity benefits all, as competition widens and enterprise remains free.
