Loomis claims a Columbian
 membership of 5,400 but investi-
 gators said the figure was nearer
 500.
 Cook said the states investigation showed the Columbian insignia, a red lightning flash. and other Co., lumbian patterns were copied from Hitler youth movements.
 Waller, the second confessor, said he accompanied one Columbian to get dynamite from "a little shack just like in the movies" on Atlanta outskirts. The Columbians plotted to blast Negro houses in Atlanta, Waller said.
 Childers said soon after the ex- plosive was obtained, @ Negro house was blasted.
 Columbian leaders first clashed with the police Oct. 28 when they warned a Negro not to. move into a house he had bought near white residences. .
 Childers said Loomis gave him '
 a knife and instructed him to
 shoot Negroes and leave a knife
 in their hands "so l could claim
 self defense"
 Loomis had about 50 copies of Nazi doctrine textbooks, Childers said, along with numerous pictures of Hitler and medal bearing a swastika.
 Loomis was ar infantry private in the U. s. Army and served over seas. He said in a recent interview that after his discharge, he cut him. self loose from his family, left his wife and two children, "in order to prepare myself for this movement to save the world"
