....... RUTHERFORD'S FIFTH COLUMN SLIMES AUSTRALIA
.....It is time the Federal Government took action against members of the subversive sect known as Jehovah's Witnesses. ''Truth'' has recieved sheaves of complaints about attempts by the door-to-door whisperers employed by this mysteriously wealthy organisation to sow sedition and defeatism in the minds of susceptible people ....The leader of this organisation 'Judge' Rutherford, Bishop of Bunk, and irreligious racketeer, was chased out of Australia last year by 'Truth.' His poisonous lying gospel of disloyality is still being spread under the cloak of religion, and his agents have launched an even more vigorous campaign anainst the British Empire, King George, all civil authority, and religion....
It must have been hard work going from door to door in those days.
I had it easy.
that is real interesting indeed!
