T. .oday they are once again bes1-bagging the nation with the negotiated peace pitch Their diGtriben are merely echoes O. the puerile arguments once published in Bund rags. Those anxious to pre- serve Maitland always were com pletely unconcerned about the Nazi destruction of liberty. Those who say we can never win the war once sasid that Germany wouldn't lose it No American should be de- ceived by their pose as peace-lov- CTS. They only take the dove of peace in their hands in order to throw it to the international wolves TyrantS would be unable to pull the trigger of war, if appeasers didn't make it possible for them to have guns.
 Outfits that crawl out of holes in the wall are equally adept at crawl ing through loopholes in the law. Our laws dealing with corrupt poli- tics have been unable to block vari- ous incorrigible groups from taint- ing the political scene merely be- cause they claim to be harmless educational organizations It seems incredible that they can avoid the clutches of the law with such flimsy alibis, but they do |. Joe Ramps Constitutional Educational I i1ocictc if ic Y,1a1.olHy adII- cational outfit - although this or ganiZation was named in two Fed eral Sedition indictments as one of the channels through which Nazi propaganda flowed.
 BigOtry remains the most potent wapon in the propaganda arsenal of our enemies. Nazism is not only composed of dangerous men, but also dangerous idetN. If you allow racial hatred to sabotage your love for democracy, then liberty has suf- fered a cvrushing defeat. Never forget that the foundation of our freedom is the devotion Americans have for 9t. Without that, freedom is nothing. The Bill of Rights can only be strong as the peoples faith in it A fortnight ago. Cong. Clare Hoffman spoke about the dangerous of intolerance. Ap- parently he didn't learn anything from his own oratory. A few days later he launched 8 vicious attack against an American citizen, sneer- ing about the fact that heh is foreign-born :. Americanism doesn't live in the heart of every Ameri- can born here. One of the two Nazi saboteurs just nabbed by the FBI is a natiVe-born American!
 NeWSpapermen and others can point to the dangers within Amer ica. Their work in useless, how ever unless their exposes inspire legislators to pass laws which give the forces of law and order power to deal with those dangers. Books and newspapers have been glutted with shocking revelations about the American companies linked with cartelS. They gave Germany more aid than all NaZi Saboteurs put to- gether Uncle Sam is running these companies for the duration But many of the executives who worked with the Germans before the war are still part of those firms If Uncle Sam loosens his grip after the war - the Germans will once again take over All this is nc idle nightmare. It happened af- ter the last war Nevertheless no laws have been passed that could effectively block the revival of car tel influence in America.

Therefore, notwithstanding the slowness of the Government in refunding overpayments last year on l943 taxes, it would seem wise for most small and moderate tax payers to ask for refund of any, thing shown in Item g. But don't be impatient if the refund is long time coming. It probably will be.

"A REPORTERS REPORT TO THE
 NATION


 GAMd to the Congressional Comm. to
 Probe Un-American ActivitleS)
 We trust the committee which fol- lows the Dies group won't follow in its stumbling footsteps. Martin Dies scarcely scratched the surface of the subverSive menace. Dies once an- nounced he would investigate Ger aid Winrod as pro-NaZi-and presto-it was forgotten. He never got around to probing rabble-rouser Gerald L. K. Smith and many other trouble-makers The new com mittee has been given the Dies Com- mitteeS records. Among those rsc- ordS is a sizzling expose about rich and influential Americans who sup piled the wampum for Nazi clans here. Dies failed to release that ex- poSe-but public interest demands the report be made known If the new committee does its job without fear or favor, it will not only win renewed respect for Con- gress-but will also help win the war.
 The SOapbOx and Stench sheet are more effective German instruments for disrupting Americas war effort than U-bo&ts. A handful of Nazi- trained Saboteurs who invaded our chores were trapped, whereas Hit terooters continue to impede our march toward victory by injecting Nazi political germs into Uncle I Samson. NaZi SaboteurS aren't the only American foes endeavoring to pose as Americans. Hundreds of Subversive tribes are war-dancing around democracy wahooing Yam kee Doodle. Their poison seeps into every city, town and hamlet in this nation Some time ago a Federal Grand Jury listed the ver- min press members serving as a pipeline for Nazi propaganda. Ninety-nine per cent of those jour- nalistic cobras still publish their venom today!

How ever, one avowed nationalist once bluntly proclaimed his intention: : Tn America the revolution will no doubt be staged by American fas- cistic forces patriotic American nationalistS" The man who mbade that statement is David Baxter, one of the indicted 30 in the mass sedition case.
 Every time an American opens his mailbox, he is in danger of be- ing attacked by propaganda rattle snakes. The scripts of Berlin short wavers ar ereprinted here and dis tributed by the millions.

'"Tl1e next nonth- ly Great Incohonee Bulletin to the orders members will feature the Cape Cod Plan of Daily Prayer, he said.

"In view of the fact that the great coun- ell of our order has voted to endorse this prayer, he added, T now call upon all its members throughout America, Hawaii, the Philippines and Alaska to take it upon them selves as personal responsibility to not only use this prayer but to have it presented to their local churches as we'll Denominational leaders of he Protestant Episcopal, Methodist, Northern Baptist, Pres byterian Church, U. s. A., Congre- gational- Christian and United Lu- theran Churches have already en- dorsed the prayer, he continued, "so that our membership in joining with this great effort is willingly assuming an individual service in keeping with the highest tradition of our order"
 The prayer plan, of lay origin, was launched in Massachusetts fol- lowing Pearl Harbor at a series of town meetings addressed by the clergy of the Protestant, Catholic and Jewish faiths.
