(Another warning in the open press, indicating the intentions of the Germans to attack the Soviet Union. We have been told for decades that Stalin did not know Hitler was going to attack, but it is hard to believe that this is true, due to the number of such reports. Coupled with the fact that Stalin was warned twice, once on Mar. 20, by the U.S. Under Secretary of State Sumner Wells through the Soviet Ambassador Constantine Oumansky and again on Apr. 3 in person by Sir Stafford Cripps, British Ambassador to Russia, that the Germans had been massing troops along the Soviet border with the intention of attacking. I have no original resources concerning the Russians, so it's difficult for me to make a statement about what Stalin believed or did not believe.)

(Ohio Governor John Brickner, signed a bill banning un-American political groups, especially communists, from the Ohio election ballot. I wonder if this law is still in effect? We currently have a president who continuously tells the American public that amendments to the United States Constitution "are not absolute." What could be more un-American that that? One must wonder if he would be allowed to be on the Ohio ballot in the next election.)
