in his broadcaSts over WMCA

Minister Winston Churchill of
England called for general
campaign along that line in
German-occupied Europe.

Dutch and Belgians and Nor
wegians and others under the
heel of Hitler.
Churchill called for the V to
be smeared on walls and doors
and pavements all over Europe
as a symbol of resistance to the
Nazis. The playing of Beethov-
ems Fifth Symphony. which
opens with three short notes
and long one, and the raising
of the first two fingers to form
V are other expressions OF
the sign.
TliE Nazis. finding themselves
i unable TO suppress or ig-
more the V in all its various
manifestations, have tried TO
take it over. claiming that IT
stands for thu German word

This claim makes il a cinch
for the demonstrationists 10
continue their efforts. They can
assert, If the Nazis take of

the V in the Germanic meaning.
though even the NaZis them
selves will probably know that
this is a subterfuge.
The English are great hands
for signs and symbols. They
have their thumbs up" as a
token of confidence. We have
no gesture of similar meaning in
this country, though we have
several that are intended as de-
risive, including the somewhat
localized Broadway panteInine
of forming an 20" of the thumb
and forefinger. to indicate a
zero.

Editor Knight
stirs Reply
From Pegler
In Defense Of His Column
on u. s. NationaIism
By WESTBROOK PEGLER
D DETROIT

John S. KNIGHT. who runs
the Detroit Free Press and
other papers, rebukes the author
of these dispatches for las mar
row a column of six-em thinking
as we had read in many day,
the same being rather i'll
written essay on the subject OF
American nationalism and the
naturalization of aliens.
He describes as bitter words
the suggestion that If citizen
ship was restricted to the ma
tive, then. in time, I'VE should
at least be able TO conduct an
American country by and for
Americans only.
Mr., knight frankly cribbed
: his arguments from a we'll
known document by VIII Irwin.
We call that brain-plcking in
our trade. However, they are
good arguments. and Mr.. knight
might have toiled long and Gone
much worse
DUT, on another page OF the
- same issue OF his paper.
Mr.. Knight na1vety presents
some communications which re-
flute his own contention. For
these letters include one from
the president of the Junior
Union and League of Rumanian
Societies, another from the
president of the Central Com
mittee. representing more than
100 Polish societies. and the
third from the secretary-treas-
urer of the Czech American Ma
tlonal Alliance
The comment OF the spokes-
man for the Polish societies IS
typical Of them all He says II
is now proposed 10 take away
from the foreign-born their
equality and freedom Of worship
and speech merely because they
were born abroad.
Before proceeding. 7 should
like 10 point out that no such
I proposal was made. There was
no s,is,- it,..-th+t freedom of
worship SSould be- curtailed or
that equality under the Law be
thrown out OF balance in favor
Of the native except, only. that
the right 10 vote and hold office
be restricted for them.
But that response is the gist
Of all reactions 10 the merest
suggestion that the native be
favored in his own land over
persons from abroad who be-
come naturalized but continue
10 regard tn EN- selves as
| foreigners.
WHAT purposes do these
w societies serve which have
alien titles but are composed Of
immigrants enjoying the rights
of American citizenship?
And how does any one arrive
at the belief that II would be
bad thing 10 run the United
States by the will of a homo
geneous electorate
Yet. the slightest suggestion
that the native may be assumed
to be more Au1ertcan-tt1an-ttle
naturalized immigrant is met
by the retort that no real Ameri-
can could entertain a thought
so hateful.
Americans do not hate Ru-
manians or Poles ar Gzeel4s. he
-Ifish-er-t iftA-t5ffeftSii Btft-tfrr
American has a complaint when
persons holding themselves 10
be foreigners in whole or in
part claim the rights of Ameri-
can citizenship. including the
right 10 office here.
1t is said that mention OF this
subject tends 10 create disunity.
but on that point ] want 10
know who is then guilty of the
disunity?

sideraton of Congress,

THE UNITED STATES
OF the latter fact the Dies committee long ago told

Russia as a democratic ally of the L. s A. by the

& United States are being influenced BY COMMUNIS-
TIC THOUGHT AND PHILOSOPHY.
c-The extent of the EMPLOYMENT OF COMMU-
y NISTS IN THE FEDERAL SERVICE and the
RESPONSIBILITY FOR SUCH A POLICY
It will be urged by-FII4 WAR-PARFY that this
would embarrass the administration in its aido England

barrassed its policy of help to boody-handed Stain
has embarrassed the American people
1t has split them the very question which
President Roosevelt has asked them be united-the
question of help for England
1t has brought the blush of confusion to the face of
every American who has fought against the Reds in
America as the FOREMOST ENEMIES of our institu-
tons.
A S KARL H. Won WIEGAND so truly said in a recent
- Shanghai dispatch to the Hearst papers:
That America, whose democracy is arch-foe Of
communism much of fascism should support and
endeavor to the citadel of avowed world revolution
against capitalism, with its institutions of private prop
ery and free economic competition instead of standing
aoof in confidence with prepared defense of system
cannot but trouble thoughtful minds
All thoughtful minds in the United States ARE
troubled the administrations inCUmprehensbie
coddlng of Reds and their fellow-ravelers
If Congress is courageous it will set the Tnkham
investigation afoot
But to ask rubber-stamp to have courage is like
asking spineless snail TO stand on its hindlegs.

aprnpoS- heart ieiie- of
July 9: Miss Thompson works
very hard at her calumniation of
Charles Lindbergh. Mr.. Lind
bergh's leadership must be really
feared, or the efforts would not
be so constant and intense.
II the nSinudtion OF Lind
bergh's pro-NaziiSm were truth.
ii would be Miss Thompson'S
duty TO prove it directly 10 the
public. Such cannot be proven,
because il is not so.
Miss ThompSon'S attempt to
defame by villification is purely
political smear. II is politics of
very vast scope, however. for
she is obviously working for
Roosevelt social dictatorship.
Work toward this goal CAN
be proven by analysis of her
writings. Miss Thompson has be-
come a bit frantic in her tech
nlque because our people are
turning in disgust from Anglo
phile and Communist war mon
gers to the courageous American
patriot. Charles Lindbergh.
Why does Miss Thompson
work as energetically against
such descriptive un-Americans
as Harry Bridges, the alien agi-
tator Of American labor?
