ARE constantly planning the over
throw Of our government"
Foreign Worker Blamed.
The rapid spread of Bolshevism in
the United States is ascribed by the
wise economists of the patriotic So
ciety to the presence of many immi-
grants. Since many of these immi-
grants are "illiterate and know moth
ing of our language, they necessarily
become workers on our farms, in our
mines, and in, pur great industrial
plants and factories. They do not i'm
mediately, if at all, learn our ian
guage and customs. They usually seq
regate among their own people, and
come under no. truly American infiu-
ence. They must work, as must we
all; but disillusionment brings disap-
pointment. Disappointment breeds
discomfort, and discomfort makes
them an easy prey to enemy propa-
gandists." -
The PATRIOTIC. society proposes to
fight the spread of Communist doc
trines among workers by employing
the same methods which have been
used so long BY the enemies of the
United States government" These
methods are described as follows:
To Organize "Alien' Workers.
1--WE are going. to issue literature in
the way of pamphlets and books, like
wise in all languages with the Eng
lish translation appended thereto, and
in everyday words, covering all kinds
of civic matters, including our basic
laws which every American citizen or
resident should know in order to full
fill his sacred duty. We propose dis
tributing these from time to time to
every worker in our factories, mines,
fields, industrial plants; and to every
person of every nationality, whatever
his faith, within the United States, in
Guiding our citizens. We advocate ma
tional and state proclamations. We
intend sending2 orators to every fac
tory, mine, and large industrial plant.
as we'll as to- our schools and among
the homes of our workmen and their
employers, to teach and to preach our
doctrine and to eounteract the antag-
onistic one. We shall organize clubs,
groups, and forums principally among
the illiterate and foreign element thru
out our land, 50 that they may learn
and profit by our teaching. We shall
invite all patriotic employers, all civic,
fraternal, socialeS workingmen's and
other organizations to join our pro-
gram" .rows.
AS an example of its proposed meth
DDS, the patriotic society's pamphlet
lines up in two columns 1.-THE Com
munist Idea" AS opposed to 1.-THE
American Idea.snc Under the latter
head, the society tries to bamboozle
workers into believing that there are
no economic and social classes; that
each one has the same opportunity to
succeed financially, socially and men
tally; and that fequal distribution of
property is impossible"
Publishes The Patriot.
The society has also published the
first number of a monthly called The
Patriot, which published alleged quo
tations from the speeches and writings
Of Carl Haessler, C. A. Hathaway,
Lenin, william z. Foster, The DAILY
WORKER, conventions of the Work
ers (Communist) Party, John Pepper,
and even a publication issued at
"Leningrad, Smolny."
Hard-Up for Cash.
Naturally, the society has issued an
appeal for money. Dues for various
kinds of subscribing, contributing, &C.
tive and life memberships range from
50 to $1,000.
The founder of the society is Jacob
Cash, New York City marshal with
a small following Of peanut politicians.
However, the society has published
letters from better known capitalist
politicians endorsing its American
ization" and anti-Communist aims
Among those whoshave approved the
society's program are Senator Cap
per of Kansas, Senator Ferris of Mich
igan; Congressman Sol Bloom of New
York; Rear Admiral H. M. Josephthal
of the New York naval militia, and
Attorney George Gordon Battle.
