Dr Nathan Beskin, a Russian Jew and Stalin's schoolmate, told Helena Rotary yesterday that subversive influences in the United States are growing rapidly from kindergarten onward. He claimed 250,000 Nazis, 3,000,000 Communists, and equal numbers of fascists swear allegiance to Hitler, Stalin, and Mussolini, with the Silver Shirts rising under William Dudley Pelley. He urged education by comparison to shield youths from European 'isms' and warned of religious and youth movements undermining American values. The talk included criticisms of Methodists, Epworth Leaguers, and an ex-communicated bishop, and called for motion pictures and speakers to show shirt regimes' inferiority to the United States.
