EXTENSION OF REMARKS OF HON. A. S. HERLONG, JR. OF FLORIDA IN THE
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Mr. HERLONG:. “Mr. Speaker, Mrs. Patricia Nordman of De Land,
Fla., is an ardent and articulate opponent of communism, and until recently
published the De Land Courier, which she dedicated to the purpose of alerting
the public to the dangers of communism in America. At Mrs. Nordman’s request, I
include in the RECORD, under unanimous consent, the following “Current
Communist Goals,” which she identifies as an excerpt from “The Naked
Communist,” by Cleon Skousen”.
CURRENT COMMUNIST GOALS
1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only
alternative to atomic war. 2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference
to engaging in atomic war. 3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament
[by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength. 4.
Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and
regardless of whether or not items could be used for war. 5. Extension
of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites. 6. Provide American
aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination. 7. Grant
recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N. 8. Set up
East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev’s promise in
1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the
U.N. 9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United
States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in
progress. 10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the
U.N. 11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter
is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own
independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be
taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers
compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo.) 12. Resist
any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party. 13. Do away with all loyalty
oaths. 14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent
Office. 15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United
States. 16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American
institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights. 17. Get
control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and
current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers’
associations. Put the party line in textbooks. 18. Gain control of all
student newspapers. 19. Use student riots to foment public protests
against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack. 20.
Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial
writing, policy making positions. 21. Gain control of key positions
in radio, TV, and motion pictures. 22. Continue discrediting American
culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist
cell was told to “eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings,
substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.” 23. Control art
critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness,
repulsive, meaningless art.” 24. Eliminate all laws governing
obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free
press. 25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting
pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and
TV. 26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal,
natural, healthy.” 27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed
religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for
intellectual maturity which does not need a “religious crutch.” 28.
Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the
ground that it violates the principle of “separation of church and
state.” 29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate,
old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation
between nations on a worldwide basis. 30. Discredit the American Founding
Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the “common
man.” 31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the
teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the
“big picture.” Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took
over. 32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over
any part of the culture–education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental
health clinics, etc. 33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere
with the operation of the Communist apparatus. 34. Eliminate the House
Committee on Un-American Activities. 35. Discredit and eventually
dismantle the FBI. 36. Infiltrate and gain control of more
unions. 37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business. 38. Transfer
some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all
behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can
understand [or treat]. 39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use
mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose
Communist goals. 40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage
promiscuity and easy divorce. 41. Emphasize the need to raise children
away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental
blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents. 42.
Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of
the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise
up and use “united force“ to solve economic, political or social
problems. 43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations
are ready for self-government. 44. Internationalize the Panama
Canal. 45. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot
prevent the World Court
Comments
I read these goals
when I was 10 years old. They were published in a book by the American
Communist Party dated 1920. The Goals above are dated 1963 and have been
achieved through infiltration into the US government, US Congress, US Education,
US Media and US Multinational Corporations. The goals in bold are
currently active in the protests and riots.
