In og battle for justice we must
realize that there are thousands of
traitors within our own ranks-men
ana women who, having mortgaged
tnelr own craven souls to our en-
emles, are willing and anxious to
sell out our group for a mess of pot
Eage' In myraids of instances they
nave already done so. Many of these
beings are like moles which burrow
beneath the surface, and they have
by their perGicious activities placed
tne &. entire structure of our rights in
peril. The vilest, cruelest, most bru-
tal, craftiest, most venomous, and
most cold-blooded outspoken enemy
Is lar less dangerous than the vile.
