 Sen. Coles Is Bitter
 Hartford, Conn, March 9-(UP)- Sen. Albert l.. Coles, D., Bridgeport, warned the legislature today that unless "un-American activities" were outlawed by the general assembly, '"The German-American Bund will come into Connecticut by next sum- mer with rifles and uniforms and march on the streets melting vio- lence against a minority"
 Sen. Coles spoke in opposition to action taken by the senate in reject ing six bills which would have set up a Little Dies Committee" to in- vestigate un-American activities, and which would have imposed severe penalties for the dissemina- tion of propaganda against racial or religious groups, and for the wear ing of political uniforms.
 The German-American Bund, he declared, is making Connecticut a field for cultivation in the United States" and he predicted violence would follow If we don't do some thing about it."
 Unfavorably Reported
 The judiciary committee reported the bills unfavorably on ground they were unconstitutional.
 'They are not unconstitutional if the committee sees fit to pass them,' ,' Coles asserted. And I include in these bills Communism and every other ism which is sweeping Connec- ticut."
 Concerning alleged un-American activities in the state, he said "there is no question they are financed by foreign government. It is time we had little more Americanism."
 It was his understanding, the sen- ator said after the bills were re- jected, that the bund was seeking to establish camps in the state, and he mentioned Newtown as a prob- able site.
 An attempt to establish buno camp at Southbury more than 6 year ago was defeated by towns. people who passed zoning laws re- stricting property uses. The proper ty, it was understood, still is owned by the bund although no further eff. forts have been made to develop it Sen.
