HITLER'S PLAN TO
EXTERNAINATETHERACE

WASHINGTON, d. G. - The
majority Of Colored people in
America understand that a vic
tory for Hitler and his Axis part
ners, Japan and Italy, would
mean the complete extermina-
ton Of Colored people In the
United States.
What is not SO we'll under
stood is the fact that Hitler's
agents in this country hS9e, for
years, used anti-American and
pro-Nazi groups like the Ku Klux
Khan, the Black Legion, and
some American magazines. to
weaken our country from within
by developing the myth of ra-
cial superiority.
An example Of how appease-
ment forces like the Lindberghs,
the Eugene Talmadges Of Geor-
gia and other purveyors of fall
racial theories got their instruc-
tions direct, is contained in the
Magazine Digest, which pub
lished an article titled HOW
TO WIPE OUT AMERICAN coli
ORED PEOPLE" by Heinrich
Krieger, in May, 1886. The mag
azine was sold on newsstands
throughout the country. The arr
ticle represented a condensed
version of the original article
taken from the German publica-
ton, die Tat" published in
Jena, Germany, in Feb. 1885.
Diminishing the Indians and
foreign-born groups as not wor-
thy of too much attention be-
cause they ARE already subject
to numerous restrictions" the
author centers his attention ON
the Colored people because Col
ored people remain protected by
the fiction of full equality Of
right with the ruling races" as
set forth in the Bill of Rights
and the Fourteenth and Fif
ceentn amendments to the Con-
stitution
~ order to prepare the was
6or wiBii1g out the Colored
people, the author points out
that the most important prob
lem is how to deprive Colored
people of full equality under
the form of the law, while
the 14th and 18th Amendments
guarantee their legal standing"
Here's his answer, which in
cludes a direct appeal for the
use of vigilante mob violence,
race riots and lynching:
1.-THE methods of getting
around the difficulty and of es-
tablishing correct principles are:
by the circulation of widely ac-
cepted and free views about the
status of Colored people, the le-
gality Of which cannot be cas-
lily proved; with the help of .
sophistical extension Of the
meaning of equality; but above
all BY THE PROPER HAND
LING OF THE DISTURBANCES
WHICH THE LAW ToLERATES
THROUGH THE INTERPRETA~
TON OF RACIALLY USEFUL
STATUTES"

DDS is important, the article
states, ''in the matter of the
right to vote" And this is where
prejudice" plays an important"
part, the author says.

day that the Dutch colony for
year had been preparing scorched-
earth plan to prevent its oil fields and
industries from falling into japanese

He said plants had been removed
from threatened areas or prepara-

those which could not be moved

Oil wells would be set on fire, he
said, but he acknowledged that the

|A.-E.F. 10 Find Bases
When lis First Units
Arrive in British Isles
English Hope Americans
Will Relieve All English
Troops in ireland
Nv HELEN KIRKPATRICK,
Foreign Correspondent Of The Star
and Chicago Daily News.


LONDON, Jan. 7.-When the first
units of the A. E. F. arrive in the
British Isles they will find Ameri-
can-built bases and barracks all
ready for them.
Built under the lease-lend pro-
gram by American workmen and
engineers, the A. E. F. will find large
bases, most of them almost COM
pleted and work on all Of them well
advanced. Barracks are equipped
with American furniture and bed
ding and hospitals with the most
modern American equipment will do
all possible to make the modern
doughboys feel at home If they
should need reminder that they
are not at home the weather is
always cooperative
Whether these bases were orig
inally planned with today's require
ments in mind or to increase British
ability to patrol the Atlantic is still
an enigma to most Americans and
British. That constructed in Ulster
clearly is intended to widen the
scope OF Atlantic defense The
Scottish bases may have been in
tended as reception points for Amer
ican supplies.
+ The London Daily Mail today
says that Little America in Ulster
as the base was named by United
States workers there-was built as
reception point for lease-lend aid,
but it has also elaborate facilities
for air, naval and military forces"
The Mail compares the Ulster base
with the A. E. F.'s French base at
Brest in the last war.
General opinion in military
circles believes the A. E. F. in
Britain would probably consist OF
semi trained troops who could finish
their training here and release some
of the highly trained British troops
for service abroad.
Many southern Irish, as a great
many Englishmen, hope that the
United States forces may relieve
British troops in Northern Ireland,
thereby permitting the complete
withdrawal of British troops from
Irish soil This, it is thought, is
the only possible way in which Fire
might be persuaded to lend or lease
her important bases to the Allies
for the duration.
Irish-American history is such
that the establishment Of United
States troops in Ulster would have
great significance for the Irish and
might lead to the solution Of the
hitherto unsolvable Irish dilemma.

Mennonites Await
Force 10 Take Them
To 0bjectors' Camp

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. T. Six
young Mennonite farmers waited
stoically today for an understanding
Government to provide the force
which can make them 60 with a
clear conscience to a civilian work
camp for conscientious objectors, re-
fusing even the services Of the
QuakerS to take them.
They are members of the strict
Wenger sect of the Mennonites,
which holds that its adherentS
should live and die on the land of
their fathers, stunning the tempta-
tions of the outer world Other
branches of the denomination aren't
as strict.
1t was this rich Lancaster County
soil which their forebears have
turned into one of the garden spots
of America that the solemn young
men refused to leave when ordered
to report to a civilian work camp
operated for the Mennonites in Full
ton County, Pa, by their draft
boards.
Convicted in Is Minutes.
One of them, Isaac Shirk Eby, Is,
stood trial on the charge Of viola
ton of the Selective Service Act.
A Jury convicted him in Is minutes
after the court had simplified judi
cial procedure and admitted Eby's
beared, black-garbed father and the
father of another of the defendants

clad tenets of their plain people"
Federal Judge Harry E. kalodner,
entering pleas of no defense for the
others. then gave them the alterna-
tive of two years in prison or re-
porting to the camp.
Isaac Rissler, %, spoke up softly:
But We could depend on our
Heavenly Father to lead us if we

camp, we cannot depend on Him. y
Then Joseph Shirk. whose son
was another defendant, interposed:
But the boys will 60 wherever
you make them 60. We do not
oppose force" .
OTucTcu 10 Sd"P.
The court made the camp deci-
sion, but new complication arose.
The Wenger sect doesn't go in for
passenger automobiles, and the
Government tried to find an Army
truck to transport them. Unsuc-
Cessful. it turned to the American
Friends Service Committee, the
Quaker organization, which I'M
mediately sent a truck around.
But when the defendants had
filed out of the courtroom they
solemnly told Guy w. Solp, assist
ant director of the committee.
You'll have to force us to get in.
We won't get in voluntarily"
1--WE can't do that replied the
bewildered Mr.; Solp. THE Friends
don't believe in force either"

JOINS THE MARINES
AFTER SEEING WORLD

The mantle of soldier, sailor or
marine falls lightly on the should
ers of young men whose fathers
have preceded them in some branch
of the service.
But the case of young Ike Fen
ton of Quantico. Va, was different.
Instead of joining the Marines to
see the world, he saw the world
then joined the Marines. 1t hap
pened this way:
Ike was born at Long Beach,
Calf, nineteen years ago while his
father 1t. Col. Francis I. Fenton
was on duty with the U. S. Marines
on the West Coast From then on
the young man was reared in a
marine atmosphere.
Soon his father was transferred
/ to the Far East and Mrs. Fenton
and Ike went along as matter Of
course. He saw the sights of
China and faraway Guam, recently
assaulted by the Japs. He not only
knows the Orient and many of the
way station in between, but is IA
miliar with several Marine Corps
posts on both coasts. He has been
mascot of Marine baseball teams in
San Diego, Guam, Mare Island,
Shanghai and Quantico.
We wanted to be a marine offic-
er, but he had just about decided
to give up that idea when a minor
eye defect barred him from the
U. S. Naval Academy.
Then came the news of the Japs
treacherous attacks on our naval
bases. Ike enlisted in the Corps
the first thing the following morn
ing. Now he expects to see those
far eastern places all over again
while wearing a marine uniform.

Radiant Living
APPEARANCES ARE
DECEITFUL
By
Rev. Charles Milton Griffeth

Driving home late one night, ]
observed an enormous orange
moon rising beyond the distant
woodlands into the overhanging
darkness. Then, just to the right
of it, 1 noticed tiny point of bril-
lance, like a floating diamond.
AS you yourself could have seeni
the moon, to all appearances was
thousand times bigger than that
little star whose brilliance was well
nigh lost in the glow of the proud
expansive moon.
Yet l knew that what 1 actually
saw with my eyes was not so.
That tinny point of light was in
fact a distant planet, SO massive ir
size, that it would shrink the moon
in comparison, to speck of dust
AS I continued to compare theil
Smyrna times., 1942-01-08

true sizes, I was impressed again
with the fact that many times ap-
pearances are deceitful.
The only reason the moon SEEM
ed so massive was because it was
so much closer to me than was the
star. Anything you hold close to
your eyes seems to increase in its
size.
1 wonder if this is not the reason
why our troubles seem so big and
our God seems so small-we hold
our troubles so close to our atten-
tion, while God is often so far from
our thoughts.
Why not then bring God closer
to your eyes by thinking more OF
His power to help you, instead OF
thinking so much of the power OF
your troubles to defeat you?
Draw God nenarer to you by
earnest prayer. And then, as you
catch vision of His love for you
and of His ability to help you, those
troubles of yours which now seems
so overwhelming, will shring into
insignificance.
When God becomes your "all ir
alp', troubles can not command
your vision.

H MacCormick, former New York
city commissioner of correction.
MacCormick's subject was "Are
Criminals Born or Made?" and since
he had a lot of firsthand informa-
ton, the swing bandsman listened at
tentively. The discussion ended at
about 10 p. m. and as there was
large crowd present, some time
elapsed before Dorsey passed
through an exit. Wanting smoke
badly and finding he had no ciga-
rettes, he stopped at the nearest
store. He received prompt service
but when he came to pay for his
purchase he could not do so because
his wallet, which had contained $34,
was missing. Either during or after
the lecture on crime and criminals
some one had picked Jimmy pocket.
