Citizens Federation
May Join Drive on
Fifth Columns
Question to Come
Before Associations
At Meeting Tonight

The Federation of Citizens Asso-
Citations may act tonight to cooper
ate in ferreting out fifth column
activities in the Capital.
While -the matter Is not on the
docket for consideration, President
Harry N. Stull said it would def
nitely be put before the body for
consideration in the form of a reso-
luton about 8 pm.
Already about five member bodies
have adopted resolutions that some
thing must be done to curb Trojan
horse" and fifth column activities
in the Nations Capital and Mr..
Stull said the feeling among some
delegates was that because OF the
distribution of member bodies
throughout the city the Federation
might perform valuable service to
constituted authority If desired.
Mr.. Stull said he had no idea lust
what form the federation considera-
ton of the matter might take, but
said some general resolution might
be adopted or some committee
named to carry on work during the
summer when the federation is not
in session.
Presumably the federation, If it
decides on action, may function as
an information bureau to Govern
ment authorities and the probability
Is that some secrecy will be neces-
sary If the group so decided.
Too much publicity of what we
might do or who might be doing
1t might defeat the purpose of the
plan," Mr. Stull said.
The federation president pointed
out that the Capital was a natural
place for fifth column activities as
compared with some other towns
and cities and there was general
recognition that something must be
done.
During the World War the fedora
ton had committees appointed and
cooperating with the Government
in such matters as housing for the
vast influx of persons coming to
the Capital in wartime. At that
time the delegates acted on request
of the Government. This time they
are apparently taking the initiative.

Flower lovers will sigh and look
exceedingly wise when you mention
the fact that you are going to cul-
tivate gentians. These tempera-
mental flowers, exquisite as they
truly are, surely make life hectic for
the flower grower. There is no real
assurance your efforts will be re-
warded by the wealth of flowers you
have envisioned when planting the
seeds.
Many have wrongly thought that
all gentians are blue. A little inves-
tigation will cause the misguided
ones to change their minds about
this, for some of the most beautiful
gentians are purple or yellow. OF
course, 1t must be admitted that
there is no more lovely blue in all
the world than the true gentian blue.
Though the closed or blind gen.
tian Is not an effective blossom, it
has the true blue color with the ex-

Dies Urges Council
Coordinate War
On Fifth Column
Suggestion Follows
Senate Approval Of
REORGANIZATION PIun
BY the Associated Press.

Representative Dies, Democrat, OF
Texas proposed today that Presi-
dent Roosevelt create a council OF
home defense to coordinate the
Nations anti-fifth column cam
paign under constructive, sane
leadership"
His suggestion followed the Sen
ate's action yesterday in voting,
SIS to 4, to approve a presidential
reorganization plan to shift the I'M
migration Service from the Labor
Department to the Justice Depart
ment to IDEAL quickly" with Trojan
horse threats.
Casting two OF the dissenting
votes, Senators Norris, Independ-
ent, of Nebraska, and Wheeler, DEM
ocrat, of Montana, inveighed for
five hours against war hysteria"
and the alleged methods of ]. Edgar
Hoover, chief of the Justice De-
partment's Bureau of Investigation.
The resolution provided that 10
days after it becomes law transfer
of the immigration Service shall
become effective. Under existing
law reorganization programs can
not take effect until they have been
before Congress for go days, or
unless Congress acts to put them
into operation earlier.
Must Go Back to House.
The resolution had already passed
the House, but it must now 60 back
TO the House for action on a Senate
amendment which would put into
effect on June 30 the transfer of
the Civil Aeronautics Authority and
the Weather Bureau to the Com
merce Department. The C. A. A.
is now independent and the Wealth
er Bureau is in the Agriculture De-
partment.
"Hysteria is sweeping this country
today" Senator Wheeler told the
Senate. The same things that
happened during the World War are
happening again.
"All people who are talking about
suppressing this or that group
should remember that is how Mr..
Hitler was swept into power"
The Montana Senator said every
one agreed that spies and foreign
agents must be caught at once" but
he warned that indiscriminate raids
and reprisals caused a spirit of law

Continued From Page Ten)

Gun opened the door, without
noise, and stepped OFT into the
sunlight. His watch registered
7:3O, but the sun was already hot.
The g:.rden, which surrounded
the bungalow, was well laid out,
and was about a half-acrc in ex-
tent. 1t was surrounded in its turn
by the wire fence Gun had no
ticed the previous night. This was
composed of stout, narrow
meshed wire netting, with barbed
wire strung through it at inter-
walls in such a way that it was OBJ
viously unclimbable, and was
about 2 feet in height.

strolled down to the fence. The
man patrolling that section was
plainly not a regular soldier. He
wore a suit of mechanics over

felt hat. Tennis shoes on his feet,
and a cartridge belt loosely slung

different. He was a big, blond

Gun noticed also that the men
patrolling had a slouching, care.
less walk, which could never be
found in even the most carelessly
trained soldier, while the man at
the gate stood precisely as he had
seen sentries standing outside Of.
fetal places in Berlin.
Gun walked as far as the fence
and waited until the man in dun.
garees came alog.
Good morning." said Gun in
English.
The man passed on without even
looking at him.
Gun waited until he came back
and, just as he drew level, held
his gold cigaret case close to the
netting:
"Cigarro?"
The man took not the slightest
notice. Gun strolled after him, a
little to the rear. He fell to whis.
ting. He whistled a bar or two Of

louder note, Santa Lucia"
Gun, who had been watching
was satisfied for the moment, and
turned his attention to the land.
scape. The view, after a hum.
dred yards, was obstructed by 4
high wooden fence. Beyond that
could be seen the roofs of build
ings, and from faint clinking and
hammerings that came to him
from that direction, Gun deduced
workshops. This, as Gun saw
from the sun, was the southern
side of the bungalow.
On the western side was a wide,
flat stretch of ground, rising slow
ly upward for about half a mile,
with nothing but some tree tops
to be seen beyond the top of the
rise. This was where they had
made their landing the previous
night, though there was no sign of
an airplane to be een there now.
The whole of the northern side
was occupied, within so yards OF
the fence. by a slope % steep as
to be practically perpendicular,
which rose some 10 feet almost
sheer. The face &c it was rocky,
with sparse, coarse grass grow.
ing, and stunted bushes growing
here and there. Gun could not
identify the bushes, and this fact
gave him the idea of studying
the flowers in the garden. But
they were all English varieties
pansies, primulas, daffodils, lilies
and SO on. Evidently imported.
Gun cursed softly, and turned his
attention to the eastern side.
There was nothing to be seen
here-only the backs of a row of
hutments, similar to the British
army huts used in the Great War.
Smoke was coming from the tin
chimney pots, and Gun guessed
that the garrison, or whatever it
called itself, of the place lived
there, and yer just attending to
their breakfasts.
On an afterthought he strol]ed
down to the fence again, and took
careful stock of the hands of all
the sentries.
AS he turned to the bungalow a
Gathering issued from the kitch-
en-, and from the bathroom there
came the sound of Tommy Hazel

anyway"
