I still want to ask the professor what he regards as the "achievements of communism." I still want to ask him why he thinks the "more intelligent Europeans" are willing to devote their talent and their lives to advancing communism. I want to ask him by what standard he measures intelligence. Were not the hosts of refugees. to whom real democracy appealed. and who emigrated to this country. among the "more intelligent?" In passing. I am impressed by another statement of the professor. which is found on page 14: There is an ironic possibility that. since 1948. the Communist party the world over has won more supporters with promises of private ownership of land than the promises of social ownership of industry. I note that he says this possibility is "ironic." But I am also impressed by the fact that he does not even comment on the fact that there is no such thing as "private ownership of land" under communism.
