Recently there was a report
in one of our local newspapers
of a statement by Congressman
Rankin. His usual remarks are
so wild, his political position so
well-known, that thoughtful cit
liens have gotten into the habit
of saying: This vicious, reac-
tionary representative of a
handful of voters is just blow
ing his top again. It's just the
same old loud and stupid noise
from the ranks of the enemy.
But not long ago Congressman
Rankin made a very important,
very profound remark.
He was talking about the Ku
Klux Khan. He was talking
about the possibility of the
House american Committee
investigating the activities of
the Khan. And Mr.. Rankin said:
"After all the Khan is a COM
pletely American institution and
its members are Americans.
That's not what this commit
tee was set up to study. Our
Job is to investigate foreign isms
and alien organizations"
Congressman Rankin spoke
the truth in part. The Ku Klux
Khan is an American organiza-
ton. It has a history in Ameri-
can life. The National Social
list Party in Germany was a
German organization. The Ger
man people discovered how
large a role it was to play in
their history. We here in
America, found cut how i'm
mense a role it was 70 play in

The Khan and America

our lives, too.
I do not think that we here
in America can ignore the fact
that the Ku Klux Khan is part
of our nation today. 1t is the
spearhead of the most depraved,
the most vicious and violent
force in American life. 1t is
the Spearhead of reaction and
fascisim. We cannot afford to
blind ourselves to the state of
our nation. We cannot close our
eyes and treat the Khan as an
organization of maniacs and
fools dedicated to senselesS
acts of violence and terror.
The Khan with its history Of
violence against the colored
people; the Khan with its record
Of anti-semitism; the Klan with
its role of anti-democratic &C
tivity has been selected to pro-
vide the acton front for fasc-
ism in America. And today,
money and brains are being
poured into this organization
and other little groups, such as
those led by Gerald L X. Smith,
in order to weld together every
possible organizational form OF
anti-democratic action in the
coming battle for democratic
survival.
Those of us who recognize the
present struggle going on in
| America must organize at once
must gather our forces, must
enlist the aid Of tn emajority
of Americans and smash this
front organization Of fascism
! before 1t is too late

Assoc. was devoted, almost ex-
clusively, to the great musician
after whom we are named. Miss

interesting facts concerning the
life and activities of Coleridge-
Taylor. The musical program

rose to new heights, as did
Gladys Pierce. Everton Johnson
contributed readings in his in
teresting, convincing manner.
Marjorie Thompson, the faith
full, rendered pleasing piano Sc
Ilections. william Sexton really
knocked me off my feet. Since
returning from the war, he has
been telling me how used up he
is, and his doubts as to evel
singing again. Well, I got my
sympathy all ready to give him
when he cut loose and sang
better than I ever heard him
sing before.

A COMMERCIAL WAR


So, Mr. Trotter would say
that it all boils down to COM
merce and world trade. And
that's what Mr. wallace the
Secretary of Commerce knew
and said, Religion, communism,
are only smoke screens. Russia
and Asia are becoming trade
rivals to the western Powers
just as Carthage became q
rival to Rome. Carthage was
destroyed. We used the first
atom bomb to try to destroy
Japan which was England's
commerce rival in Asia. Today,
after World War II, England
finds she can not easily attain
her world trade supremacy in
Europe and Asia. This is only
because of one power, Russia.
The U S S r has tremendous
untapt wealth in minerals and
oil. She is building ultra mod
ern hidden industrial cities, she
has cheap labor and she is
worrying England. Now we are
down to the core Of the world
situation. We have the real
reason for Campaign against
Russia If it is Just or unjust
it has nothing to do with re-
ligion. Let us call a spade a
spade. We used enough of

votes have the power to change
the set-up in both major par
ties. We've got to have some
sort of a fair home policy be-
fore we can exercise any fair

RELIGIOUS Smoke SCREEN
Mr. Trotter being Christian
man, the question would be
asked him how he stood on the
issue of Russia menacing the
Western Church. We are talk
ing a good deal about lining up
the Religious western churches
against the Atheist Russia-led
Eastern "barbarians." Mr. Trot-
ter would laugh without hum
or. He would Immediately chal-
lenge the statement that we
are more religious than any
body else. Mr. Trotter would
point to our unholy high di-
vorce rate, our stupendous "civ-
ilized" crime rate, our stupid
low savage intolerance record,
our lynchings. He would say
that although we may have
more churches, more ''listed
Christians" on paper we may
not be in the eyes of God any
better than the most ignorant
Soviet who knows no better
We know better but we still
don't act like Christians. You
can't be a true Christian and
harbor racial hatreds. You
can'te xpect mothers whose
sons have been lynched, beaten
and denied freedom, to rush
into another war by telling
them the Russians are not as

Un-American probers
Backed by House in

BY the Assoeiatsd Press

The House voted. 240 to IS, late
Yesterday to support its Committee
on Un-American Activities in con-
tempt proceedings against Corliss
Lamont, chairman of the National
Council of American-Soyiet Friend
ship, Inc, of New York.
The committee in asking the ac-
ton contended Mr.. Lamont refused
to supply requested information and
records. The case now will be
turned over to the United States at
torney here for further action.
The committee also has asked
similar House action against Rich
ard Morford. the organizations di-
rector. and George Marshall. chair
man of the National Federation for
Constitutional Liberties of New
York.
During the debate, Representative
Rankin, Democrat. of Mississippi
told the House the Un-Amer1can
Activities Committee suspected Mr.
Lamont's group of being hands in
glove" with Communist organiza-
lions trying to steal atomic bomb
secrets"
Representative O'Toole, Democrat,
Of New York criticized the COM
mittee request, and suggested an in
vestigation Of the Ku Klux Klan be
conducted, instead.
At one point, Mr.. O"Toole used
language which the House, on mo-
tion Of Mr.. Rankin, ordered stricken
from the record The words. as
read to the House by the clerk, were j:
Il cannot respect the actions, or
even the sincerity, of some OF the
members of the American Ac-
tivities group.
In New York, Mr.. Lamont said
today the council would carry the
contempt charges to the Supreme
Court "if necessary"
This is a test civil liberties case
important to all individuals and or
CARNATIONS active in the field of
education and public relations" Mr.
Lamont said.

liberties as guaranteed by the Bill
of Rights" he said I'VE are resisting
to the utmost any imputation that
working. writing, speaking or edu-
eating on behalf of understanding
and cooperation between the
United States and Soviet Russia is
in any sense un-American or sub
