For High Court

Washington (FP) - The u. S.
Supreme Court, opening new

BY TRAVIS X. HEDRICK

Chicago (FP)-A sharp worded
warning that World War III would
be an air struggle over vast arctic
wastes was presented to the AFL's
65th convention here Oct. 8 by
Gen. Carl Spaatz, commander of
the U. S. army air forces.
Spaatz's speech was a call for
America to keep her armed might
and to have ready skilled indus
trial force to guard against sur
prise attack.
At a previous session on the af-
ternoon of Oct. z, delegates gave
standing ovation to Gen. Omar
N. Bradley, head Of the veterans
Administration, when he told them
the U. S. won the past war be-
cause labor and troops fought and
worked together" Now, veterans
must consider themselves primari-
ly as workers and only secondarily
as veterans, he said.
Bradley defended his recent low
ering of payments to veterans in
the on-the-job training programs.
Abuses threatened the entire pro-
gram, he said, pointing out that
many veterans were found to be
in jobs involving a normal flow of
promotion and were not really
trainees.
Until continuing studies of
journeymen's wages throughout
the U. S. indicate that the level of
the ceiling is too high or too low,
we shall not take issue with those
levels enacted by law of Con
gress," he said.
Spaatz emphasized the need for
a strong and alert strategic air
force as the "only deterrent to sur
prise attack"
"Only air power can defend this
country against attack through the
arctic" the chief of U. S. military
aviation said. "Any preparation
program which ignores this fact is
a sheer waste of American time
and money"
The air power chief was given
rising ovation when he concluded.
His speech was followed by the
reading of letter to the conven-
ton from President Truman. After
less than an hour of deliberation,

demning the issuance Of year

The eastern editors also called
for establishment of a labor daily

Atlanta, Ga. (FP) - The Ku

party to create labor dissension.
The plan became known here
Oct. 2 when Georgia's Assistant

the Klan has already held discus

with white Protestant industries.
Klansmen today "are stirring up
more dissension in America than

bined," Duke asserted.
At the same time Gov. Ellis
Arnal made public a letter he
had written to President Truman
on Aug. 6 urging action against
the klan. Arnall quoted his assist
ant attorney general to the effect
that the khan in 1910 made a de-

While JunL L. Lewis does not pose as an international expert, it wouldn't nave required a mental giant to know that oil man Davis was playing awfully close to the Nazis
 Davis was snadowed by the State Department and by British Secret Service in Bermuda and Portugal on his way to Berlin in l939 And when he arrived back in Washing ton after hE talks with Goering, FBI men covered his apartment at the Mayflower Hotel Davis told all this to John L.

WHETHER DEFENDS NAZI
 AGENT

Senator Wheeler, for instance, held various secret conferences to defend George Sylvester Viereck when on trial for sedition, despite the fact that Viereck obviously was guilty. Wheeler also made a speech defending tlle late Senator Lun- deen, after Lundeen was exposed for delivering speeches written for him by a German agent.
 The ease with which intelligent Americans fell into the Nazi trap is, of course, something they want hushed up now. But the day may come when the same sort of danger faces the nation, and when the public should have an example be- fore it of what goes on behind the scenes. That is why Senator Kill gore of West Virginia is pressing for his investigation.
 That is also why those great friends of the Chicago Tribune Wnlcn also IelI lntO the NaZl trap isolationist Republican Senators Curley Brooks of Illinois and Wherry of Nebraska, are trying to kill the Kiigore Committee. Even Senator Scott Lucas of Illinois, a Democrat, apparently thinks twice about the Tribune and doesn't want to vote the committee any .eal cash.
 Finally, COP Senator Styles Bridges or New Hampshire, whose state is anything but isolatiouist, for some strange reason is trying to strangle the Kilgore investiga- tion. Maybe it's because Bridges is buddy of Senator Wheelers.

Klan Mentality
(Washington PoSt)


 Gov Ellis Arnall apparently is losing bets in his drive to stamp the Ku KluX Klan in Georgia. His campaign seems to be snowballing and now he has enlisted the aid of the Rev Grady B. Kent minister who got 62 ashes with bull whip at the hands of the Klan in 1889 because of his views. All this is to the good It serves to demonstrate the insiuous root of the hooded wizardry and mystic mumbo jumbo that characterize the Klan in it's outward aspects If Gov ernor Arna is successful hope he iS in destroy ing the legal basis for the Klans existence of the oldtime fear and inspired by the Kans night riders and fiery also may be abolished Though Governor Arnalls action apply only to Georgia unless the Federal Government takes up the case, elimination of the Klan hierarchy in State would be severe deterrent to the Klan wherever else it meets
 It would be foolish, of course to assume that the Ku Kux Kan be eradctated merely by doing away with the name or technical organization. That might well serve merely to drive the Klan and its sheeted dragons underground. The real danger from the Klan lies not it's childish ritual but in the kind of credulous mentality that permits it to survive and gain foothod Here is the ncubating ground for the virus of fascism is this credulous attitude which leads one group of citizens to vent their animus for national ills they cannot solve another group of citizens. The Klan parallels HiterS line in making scapegoats of minority groups, such Negroes Jews Catholics and foreigners It thrives ignorance and suspicion and it's chief weapons are physical intimda ton and denial of citizenship rights such the ballot.
 As long as such attitudes exist in the United States there will be unscrupous to expolit them whether they call themselves Klansmen Silver Shirts or some other high-sounding name Thus the only permanent answer to the problem raised by the Ku Kux Klan lies in attacking the conditions that give rise to the Klan mentality. These conditions best be met by continuous campaign of education not only to expose the shallow basis of the Klans appeal but also to demonstrate repeatedly the elementary rules of good citizenship by which live peace ably and tolerantly together

ANTI-ROOSEXELT PLOT

Nazi officia's have been quite frank in telling about their opera tions with Americans. Actually, a statement attributed to Goering, published two weeks ago, that he vas ready to spend $5,000,000 to de- feat Roosevelt in 1940 was an un- derstatemeut. What Goering really said, according to U. S. officials who interYieHed him, was that he would gladly nave spent S150,000,- GOO to defeat Roosevelt if he could have been 5hown any good way to do it.
 Another German, pr. Herbert Von Strempcl of the German En- bassy in Washington, when asked what the Nazis had done in the way of propaganda, responded: The biggest thing was when Goering's agent came to me with that plan to defeat Roosevelt"
 This was the plan involving the late w. F.. Davis, an independent oil operator, who had known Goer- ing for some years, sold oil to the German Navy, and who told the Germans nc had four Americans he could use to defeat Roosevelt in l940
 The only name on this list which Gcering could remember was that of John L. Lewis However, other German officials who had been ir on the talks supplied the additional names-Senator Burton K. Wheeler of Montana, Jim Farley, and Her bert Hoover.
 Obviously, none of the above hao any German connections or pro- bably any idea they were to be tht tools of potential enemy. How. ever, some of them were careless to say the jcast, in the way they played into German hands.

Bye, Bye Nye
Cincinnati Enquirer

Those who reao into the recent results of the Nebraska primary apparent tide back toward iSoa tonism in the Middle West will be at loss to account for what happened in the two senatorial contests in North Dakota
 Former Sen Gerald P. Nye, long the darling of the opponents of international collaboration, failed nserably in his attempted political comeback. Nye finished poor third in the special election to fill the senatorial seat vacated by the death of John Moses who defeated Nye in 1914
 Meanwhile in the regular Republican senatorial primary, Sen. William Langer was given a rather hard by the candidate of the Republican OrganiZ ing Committee J B. Brdston, Grand Forks insurance man. Senator Langer is the Senate's present out standing champion of international do-nothngness.
 These election results in considerable part reflect the internal workings of North Dakota politics. In few State primaries elections questions of inter- national import considered in political But the North Dakota results interesting evidence that when an isolationst wins, happened in Nebraska despite Harold Stassen's -advised intervention, it does not indicate general isoatonist trend by any means.
