Every patriotic American ought Il

10 assist in running down enemy
aliens who are serving as spies OF
aiding in the destruction of property
and lives in this country, says the
Sacramento Union. In this time OF
national danger it is necessary for
every loyal citizen to do his part to
protect the interests of the country.
Our secret service has proved won
derfully efficient. 1t has uncovered
scores of plots and the long arm of
the government has reached into the
deepest recesses of German intrigue.
The American people should organize
themselves into a great vigilance
committee, operating quietly and eff
fectively, to protect our homes. our
soldiers and our food supplies. There
are in this country hundreds-yes.
thousands-who are doing war work
for the enemy in our midst. Unfortu-
nately, there are some misguided
Americans who would not hesitate to
take steps which would work harm to
our cause. The enemy aliens and citi-
zens who are disloyal should be To-
Gated and rooted out.
