''For we are opposed around the world by a MONOLITHIC and ruthless conspiracy that relies on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence, on infiltaration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimadation instead of free choice, on geurillas by night instead of armies by day. it is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence,economic, scientific and political operations. its preperations are concealed, not published. its mistakes are buried not headlined. its dissentors are SILENCED, not praised. no expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed.''
