Spotlight on the Secret Service (United States News, 1963)

"The chief responsibility of the U.S. Secret Service is to guard the life of the President... In Dallas, on November 22, a sniper hidden in an office building shot and killed President John F. Kennedy... It was the first time since the Secret Service took over its protective mission 62 years ago that a President had been harmed."

 

Red Goals For American Society (Congressional Record, 1963)

When we read this transcript from The Congressional Record we were flabbergasted! You will find that it is a compilation that was pieced together in the late Fifties listing all the changes America's Communist enemies wished to see take place in the United States in order to make their mission of conquest that much easier - yet as you read the list you will quickly recognize that at least 85% of this tally fell into place as recently as 2020.

 

The Lincoln Blood Line Ends (Pageant Magazine, 1963)

Here is an account of the painful life of Robert Todd Lincoln (1843 – 1926), the only son of President Abraham Lincoln:

"He witnessed the death of his father, the untimely deaths of his three brothers, the mental deterioration of his mother and the passing of his own 17-year-old son, who was the last hope for carrying on the Lincoln name."

Some of What He Said... (The Washington World, 1963)

"In his speeches, messages, interviews and other papers, President Kennedy left his countrymen a large volume of eloquent words and phrases defining and illuminating the political, economic and social issues of our time..." Here are some of them.

 

''The Torch is Passed'' (The Washington World, 1963)

The Washington World was a short-lived Capitol Hill monthly that was created to serve the elected classes and their assorted backscratchers who lived and breathed the world of politics. This is their obituary of President Kennedy.

 

''The Strange War the U.S. Is Not Winning'' (United States News, 1963)

"It's a dirty, vicious war that Americans are [waging] in the swamps of South Vietnam. Men forget about the politics of Saigon when they stand gun to gun with the Communist guerrillas..."

 

More MIGS for Cuba (The Washington World, 1963)

"The latest U-2 photographs, showing increased numbers of Russian planes on or near Cuban airfields, have forced U.S. intelligence experts to raise their estimates from 150 to 300 Soviet planes in Cuba"

 

Sabbath Challenges (Christian Herald, 1963)

In the early Sixties, American church attendance was dropping as a new spirit of secularism was sweeping across the fruited plains. More and more merchants and restaurateurs were opening their businesses on Sundays and challenging the age-old Blue Laws as a result. This article examines what the Bible said about "keeping the sabbath holy", and why Blue Laws were enacted in so many states.

 

What To Do About Diem? (United States News, 1963)

Here is an article by a respected American journalist who was dispatched to South Vietnam in order that he might see for himself what the problems were as to why the Republic of Vietnam seemed so incapable of maintaining military dominance in the field. Everywhere he went he got the same answer:

"A highly respected professor at Saigon University [remarked]:
'If you have to make a choice between supporting the Ngo family
and withdrawing from South Vietnam, you might as well pull out.
You cannot win with the family.'"

 

The Beginning of the End for Jim Crow (Washington World, 1963)

By citing numerous examples of American jurisprudence spanning the early to mid-Fifties, this uncredited journalist illustrates that the era of Jim Crow was being disassembled brick-by-bigoted-brick:

"All across the South, the segregation wall is cracking. The hammer is being wielded by the courts... The executive branch is also moving into the civil rights field."

 

''The Case Against the United States'' (Nugget Magazine, 1963)

"A very angry Canadian firebrand hurls some painful truths at the smug belief we have in our own greatness."

 

''The Separation of God and State'' (Christian Herald, 1963)

The attached article by Joseph Martin Hopkins, was most likely written in response to the 1962 Supreme Court decision in Engel v. Vitale. This decision stated that it is unconstitutional for state officials to compose an official school prayer and encourage its recitation in government schools. Hopkins had this to say:

"Is this what the Founding Fathers intended? It has been well stated that to the contrary, their concern was that the American people enjoy freedom of religion, not freedom from religion."

 

1963: A Pivotal Year (United States News, 1963)

The 1963 struggle in Vietnam was important for a number of reasons: as the year began the world saw the first major defeat for the Army of the Republic of Vietnam at the hands of the Viet Cong guerrillas at Ap Bac. Five months later Buddhist clergymen revealed their deep distaste for the war effort which quickly resulted in the Diem administration putting numerous Buddhist pagodas to the torch. Ngo Dinh Diem himself would be put to the torch in November when he and his brother would be overthrown in an American-backed coup. Historians have long maintained that by meddling in the internal political affairs of South Vietnam, JFK had unwittingly doomed any chance for their self-reliance; following the November coup, that country became more and more reliant upon the United States - and when the U.S. abandoned the cause of a free and independent South Vietnam, their fate was sealed.

 

His Tragic End (United States News, 1963)

Here is pithy little article that encapsulates the tragedy that was November 22, 1963 and how numerous people reacted upon hearing of the death of President Kennedy.

 

The Difficulties of This War (United States News, 1963)

A highly quotable article from 1963 that articulates precisely how deeply organized the Communist guerrillas were in the Vietnam War.

"The Reds fight a fluid war that may last for years. They do not make the mistake of saying the war will be won in three, five or ten years."

 

Calling Communism Out (Christian Herald, 1963)

"Nikita Khrushchev told the 22nd Congress of the Soviet Communist Party:"

'We need a well-considered and orderly system of scientific-atheist education that will embrace all strata and groups of the population and will prevent the dissemination of religious concepts, especially among children and adolescents.'

"In these words, Mr. Khrushchev is highlighting a basic inherit characteristic of Communism - its war against the dignity of man as a child of God.

 

King's March in Washington (United States News, 1963)

Although the attached article is indeed about the famous civil rights march on Washington that took place in August of 1963, the journalist made his primary concern the political gains and losses that remained after all was said and done.

 

Rejecting Socialism During the Depression (American Opinion, 1963)

Novelist Taylor Caldwell (Born Janet Miriam Holland Taylor Caldwell: 1900 - 1985) recalled the bleak days of the Great Depression - and the perpetual appearance of American socialist who seemed always to be in recruitment mode.

"Open or crypto-Communists, they had one unwavering theme: Communism was a System with a Heart. Communism was the new Christianity. Communism was the savior of the working people. America must become Communistic, if it was to pull out of the Great Depression. The Light of the World was not in my church. It was in Moscow."
