Treasure Chest was a monthly comic book published by the Catholic Guild from 1946 to 1972. Each issue featured several different stories intended to inspire citizenship, morality, and patriotism. In the 1961, volume 17 number 2 issue, the story "This Godless Communism" began. It continued in the even numbered issues through number 20. The entire story is presented here.

That comic's always good to introduce people to the potential joys of communism.

I don't understand why the labor leaders would need be replaced. I thought according to the Hooverite world view, the CP already controlled organized labor.

The Catholic Church supported the right wing of the AFL-CIO with the Association of Catholic Trade Unionists, a anti-pacifist, anti-communist split from the catholic worker movement
