Current Communist Goals
EXTENSION OF REMARKS OF HON. A.
S. HERLONG, JR. OF FLORIDA
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Thursday, January 10, 1963
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, policymaking 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 from seizing jurisdiction [over domestic
problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction] over nations and
individuals alike.

has taken over these goals in "The Project."
