warfare against all "ncn-Aryans.s
Any sentiment stirred up against
the Jews helps the bunds cause.
If Negroes can be induced to stage
a%nti-Semitic campaigns of their
own, the bund will find its jobs
easier and will have used one de
spised" race to fight another. The
bund might co~nceivably finance
such a campaign by Negroes, and
this was a possibility investigated
by the special representative from
Washington, who came to Chicago
to collect data for presentation to
the Dies investigation committee.
Leaders point out that because
they are bath minority groups with
many common interests, Negroes
and Jews should be united on a
common trent. The bund would
find it difficult to cobalt a Semitic
Negro affiliation, whereas with
tho two minority groups split, it
wsuld be a simple problem for the
burd to help one group kill Off
the other, then marshall its entire
forces against the survivors.
That Negroes have been singled
out by Jewish merchants and real
estate holders for exploitation, as
colored anti Semitic leaders insist
is called absurd by leaders. It has
also been pointed out that the race
has benefited greatly from the be-
nefactions Of Jewish philanthro-
pists, like julius Rosenwald, who
have provided schools, YMCA and
YWCA's ard scholarships for col
ored Americans.
The Dies committee in Wash
ington will not only investigate
activities of the German American
Bund and Negro anti-Semitic cam
paigns, but will also probe "all un-
American activities and prcpagan-
da,v Chairman Dies said.
He announced last week the ear
ly Investigations Of the committee
have thus far startled. him by
revealing a growing hatred in the
United States between races, clas-
ses and to some exent, creeds"
II mention this fact because I
am sure our committee will be
very careful to avoid anythin gthat
might increase hatred in the Uni
ted States" the Texan said. "What
ID needed is more tolerance be-
tween races, classes and creeds and
an understanding of other mans
circumstances and viewpoints"

WHAT MAKES A LYNCHING.

makes a lynching possible? The
question is answered effectively
by George Leighton in the second
and final installment of his story
of an American city, Omaha Ne
braska, appearing in the current
issue of Harpers magazine.
In a straightforward and NOV
ing account of the forces behind
the rise and fall and alter lame
attempt at a comeback of this mid
western railroad center since the
eighteen-nineties, Leighton in
GUIDES an account of the lynchinG
of VIII Brown, a packing house
worker in Omaha during the latter
part of September 1919 for am
alleged attact on Agnes Lobeck
a white m
Carefully he builds up the back
ground of this case, showing the
political corruption that included
ccntrol Of organized vice, the part
played by so-called respectable
business men of the town, railroad
barors, the giant utilities with
their headquarters in the east,
the monopolistie meatpackers with
their main offices in Chicago. All
these forces, aided by the Omaha
Bee pushed a press campaign OF
SANDER accusing them of attack
ing whites that eliminated in the
lynching Of Brown and the Mayor
Of the Town, Leighton says in
his article.
Leighton makes it clear that it
is not racial hatred, but the desire
for fat profits built up on the
backs of prostitutes and sweat
shop labor, ind the crushing OF
organized labor through organized
corrupt politicians that accounted
for the lynching of VIII Brown
back in 1919.
