SUB SABoTEURs

The sub saboteurs recently landed in New York and
Florida Nazi spies who had enjoyed complete free
dom of occupation and every social liberty advantage
available here in the United States. When these vicious
enemies of democracy originally to these shores they
were given every opportunity to work in best tool and
machine industries, most exclusive social centers and
they given every freedom of the Constitution the law
will allow. One of these aliens Waxed rich enough
to buy expensive yacht in which he intended to sail
back Germany Another had safely hidden behind the
uniform of the Michigan National Guard before he sneak
ed back TO Germany to help lead the Naz movement
Still another took criminal advantage of immigration
quota to land in the United States years ago.
And, after being economically enriched by Govern
nent he exhibited his gratitude by returning to Germany
IN July, 1910 where he joined and served with the Ger

Many of the aliens concerned in this espionage and
sabotage story have taken the least interest be-
coming United States citizens. They only sprin
ling of the large number of unappreciave enemy aliens
who reside here ready to drink the health of
enemies abroad But in spite of the known unreliabity

Church to stand up for what it
teaches and breaches.
2. The increasing practice of
segregation and discrimination
in education and educational
institutions.
3. The deplorable housing
conditions under which colored
people must live and the mali
cious practices used to keep
them out of better homes.
4. The economic slavery of
New England enforced upon col
ored people where jobs are con-
cerned. They would rather give
them charity than to give them
work.
Briefly he offered four means
as partial solution: l. That
the church eliminate its acts of
prejudice, segregation and dis
elimination. That it lead off in
accepting the colored man in
full brotherhood and fellowship.
2. That we must rewrite our his
tory and story of education and
give credit where credit is due.
Our history has not told the
story nor the true story. 3. In
dustry and enterprise must
change its attitude toward the
colored man and give him en-
ployment on the bases of train
ing, experience, qualification
and equipment, rather than col
or. 4. That Democratic prin-
cfpleS must be employed in our
housing projects and that col
ored people must be permitted
to live anywhere they can afford.
With the realization of these
obiectiYes,' he said Eve will go
a long way in helping America

four hundred thousand mort
gagors. These estimates are
the results from calculation on

because of the War Bonds.
Here is an opportunity for the

There are as many and per-

calamity.
The collapse of France gave
Germany hundreds of thou
sands of African prisoners,
now languiShing in German
prison camps. Many have been
brutally massacred. On the
Lybian fronts, the Allies and
Axis are pitting African troops
against each other.
Abysinia, Liberia, India, aud
Haiti should be represented III
these conferences. There are in
the United States fifteen mil
lion colored people who are
contributing their quota of
men, money and substances fer
the freedom of the world. They
too should have representation
for the freedom of the world.
