No Beer For Children

Beer-preferably beer imported
from Germany-is the favorite
drink of the oldSters at all Sunday
camp festivals. The scouts eat
good food cooked in huge contain
ers at .. main building, but their
drink is milk and lots of it. They
are not allowed to smoke or drink
beer.
Discipline is rigid. Some scouts
are assigned to duty at soft drink
stands in camp on Sundays. Others
carry water to perspiring troopers
lined up under hot sun for sew,
eral hours listening to speeches
denouncing Jews and praising Der
Fuehrer. Still others are lined up
near the troopers listening to the
same speeches.
Communications can sen d
their children to the camps for
from $3.50 to IS a week. If their
parents have the money, the chill
dren remain in camp all summer
and enjoy a theoretical three
month trip to Germany.
Camps are supported partly
from contributions. Otto Arndt.
one Of the most active of the New
York area storm troops, said his
contributions to the JungenSchaft
amounted to $25 during the past
year.

She would not forget her duty.
Bravery Of the scouts has been

Siegfried during the summer an
older scout dived into the lake ana
risked his life to rescue q drown
ing youth. At Camp Nordland, q
scout was injured critically when
he pushed a girl out Of the path

How quickly a German-Ameri-
can boy can become part Of the
Hitler youth program was ex-
planned by a woman Bund mem
Der. She said her youthful cousin
scored the camp idea at first, but
after one visit came home singing
Nazi songs and remarked that the
German scouts were real kamera-
den." After another visit, he
became a member. Today, at 10,
he is a fuehrer and has learned to
speak German.

United States Navy and is under
the influence Of communism there

said. But we tell him not to
mind, the older brother will learn
the truth before long and realize

Helmet Passed Along

A German steel helmet and q
long lance are part of the equip
ment Of the guard at the entrance
to the boys camp at Siegfried.
The lance and helmet are passed
along to each boy as he takes up
sentry duty. Commands and con-
versations among the scouts are
entirely in German, but they po-
litely answer questions in English.
Faces of the youths reflect their
love for the Bund fight, but they
also reflect the doctrine of racial
hatred instilled in them by their
elders.
One tradition of the older Ger
many that has survived Hitlerism
is the teaching Of children to re-
Spect their elders. Children at the
American Nazi camps learn the old
world virtues of courtesy aad po-
likeness along with new Germany'S
race hatred. The courtesy and po-
likeness, of course, apply only to
white Americans"

A collection was taken up for

night boat trip up the Hudson
which apparently had no connec-

was sponsored by the Steneck

The youth camp at Siegfried is
a half mile around a lake from
the main camp building. A two
story stucco building, adaptable
for winter use, serves as head
quarters. Tents are pitched on
wooden foundations back in the
woods. At Camp Nordlend, set in
the beautiful wooded hills of sus-
sex county, N. j., the tents are
in one end of the 100-acre tract.

black background. Regulation
German swastika flags are dis
played only on special occasions.
Boys Out-Girls In
About 80 boys from Chicago and
Milwaukee gave up the tents on
August / after a two-week stay at
the camp, and about 100 girls
moved in. The boys and girls
marched behind a military band
of German World War veterans to
the flag pole for ceremony dur
ing which the boys flag was re-
placed by that of the girls organi-
cation.
Uniforms worn by the Chicago
and Milwaukee boys include
wide brown belt with a silver
buckle bearing a swastika and the
legend "Blut und Ehre" (blood
and honor. One boy displayed a
hunting knife which had similar
inscription on the blade.
One of the smallest scouts at
the camp this summer was Jackie
Piel, brown-haired lad from Mil
waukee. He looked no more than
S, but said he was 7 when ques-
toned in German. He would not
reply to English questions. Despite
his small size Jackie drills excep-
tionally well and on some occa-
sions leads his company in drill.

Trained for the "Trouble"

Youths graduate into the "Ord-
nungS Dienst," the storm troop
organization of the Bund, and are
trained mentally and physically to
lead the troops when the often
predicted trouble" comes. Scouts
are told they must be prepared to
withstand the onruSh of the COM
ing red revolution.
From their elders, scouts learn
to be suspicious of strangers. They
won't discuss the Bund unless they
know you are sympathetic. One
of the reporters early in the in
vestigation entered Turner Hall at
Eighty-fifth Street and Lexington
Avenue in the Yorkville German
section of New York city, where
the Bund holds many of its meet
ings, and asked a young scout
fuehrer where the Bund head
quarters was situated.
"Bund?" the youth asked in
pretended ignorance. II don't
know anything about the Bund."
Investigation disclosed that be-
yond the door he was guarding, a
group of boys and girls were
attending one Of the "Bundes-Red-
ner-Schule." A propaganda film
showing the delights of new Ger
many was part of that days in

A small frame building houses

The most elaborate Of the Bund's
camps are Siegfried, near zap
hank, L. l., and Nordland, near
Andover, N. J. 1t was at a youth
celebration at Camp Siegfried on
July II that National Leader
Fritz Kuhn said:
1.-The youth Of our great Bund
are the hope, the life line, of our
organization. Through them we
must live into the future. It is,
therefore, necessary that we must
stand united behind them, edu-
cate and raise them to manhood
and womanhood with our ideals
imbedded in their hearts. We
must fight together for their free
dom. We must work to win over
the youth of all German-Ameri-
cans and some day when our labor
has reaped its reward we shall
hear fine and strong German
American youths come marching
from the east and west, from the
south and north-marching on
ward to build a greater nation"

Is addressed by a youth leader or
any storm trooper in uniform.
Singing forms an important
part Of the camp training. Both
boys and girls are divided into
older and younger groups and
learn numerous songs in praise
Of Hitler and the new Germany.
The boys also have a fife, bugle
and drum corps, members Of
which are equipped with red and
white epaulets.
AS part of their training for
TRUE Americanism," scouts sing
"Heute Hoert Uns Deutschland
Morgen Die Came Welt" (To-
day Germany hears US, tomorrow
the whole world and I'VE Are
the Friends Of the New Germany,
We Are the Friends Of the
q. S. A."
Trouble With u. S. Anthem
They join enthusiastically in
singing Deutschland Ueber Allies"
and the Horst VESSEL" the Hitler
national anthem, but have a diff
cult time remembering 1.-THE Star
Spangled Banner"
Girl Scouts are tanned and
healthy and a trifle more mus
cular than the ordinary American
girl Of their age. They are trained
in the folk dances Of Germany
and perform at the various Bund
functions. Some Of the older girls
enjoy the company Of uniformed
storm troops on Sunday festivals.
The younger ones dance and
giggle with the shy young Ger
man Boy Scouts.
For some Of the smaller girls,
camp life brings the ordeal Of
living away from their parents for
the first time. One Sunday night
at Camp Nordland, little "Maed-
chenschaft" scout stood bravely at
the side Of the Bund train, hug
ging and kissing her parents good
by. The sun was sinking into the
thickly wooded New Jersey hills
behind her.

"Achtung! Achtung!"

When "Achtung!" rings out over
the loud-speaker system in the
eastern camps, scouts as we'll as
storm troopers hurry to attention.
# it is Sunday morning at Camp
Siegfried, boys and girls form into
separate ranks and prepare to
greet storm troopers and other
Bund members arriving from New
York on a special train.
Some Of the scouts march be-
hind the German swastika and the
American flag to the railroad sta
ton two miles away through
sleepy Yaphank. They line up at
attention beside the track and as
the train pulls in their arms are
outstretched in a Hitler salute to
the arriving guests.
"HeiL" Storm Troops
With a band blaring a stirring
German march, the scouts and
guests-5O0 or more strong
march back through the village to
the camp where another contin-
gent of scouts is at attention "heil-
ing" the arriving storm troops.
The Sunday parades through
Yaphank this summer aroused a
group Of villagers, who protested
that fat women clad in shorts
trampled their gardens and picked
their berries and flowers. Justice
of the Peace Gustav Neuss said
the Nazis were a far cry from
the oldtime, peace-loving Germans
he expected would occupy the
camp when it was started three
years ago.
