You Can HeIp Your Nation

In outlining how individuals can aid in the national
security program, }. Edgar Hoover, director of the Fed
eral Bureau of Investigation, says:
'Espionage may be generally defined as the OBJ
tanning Of confidential information regarding the national
defense and furnishing it to unauthorized persons to the
detriment of the United States or the advantage of a
foreign power.
Sabotage is any act designed to destroy or dam
age national defense materials-to impede production, in
jure plant premises, to destroy public utilities, or to pro-
duce defective national defense goods.
Under the term 'subversive activities would be
activities on the part of any individual or organization
which are intended to forcibly overthrow the American
government OF to give aid to it's enemies.
"The public should be alert to report all infOrna-
ton directly to the FBI which relates to the following
specific matters: l. Allegations of espionage, sabotage, or
subversive activities. 2. Foreign submarine landings. 3.
Suspicious parachute landings. 4. POSSESSION and distri-
button of foreign-inspired propaganda. 5. : Theft or UNI
authorized possession or purchase OF large quantities OF
firearms, ammunition or explosives, or short-wave trans
mitters and receivers. 6. Poisoning of public water sup
plies. z. Charterlng of airplanes for flights over restricted
areas. 8. Fires and explosions of an unusual nature affect
ing any phase Of the defense program. 9. Suspicious in
dividuals lettering near restricted areas. 10. Possession of
radioactive materials.
'The protection of the nations internal security is
a twofold responsibility. 1t must encompass not only the
safeguarding of the nations secrets and vital areas, but
also guarantee that the civil liberties of the citizens him
self will not be violated. Private citizens are warned
against attempting to conduct their own Investigations
or engage in the circulation of malicious gossip or idle
rumOr.
"By making their information available to the FBI
and the other interested agencies of the government,
without attempts at evaluation or to draw conclusions,
private citizens, law enforcement agencies and patriotic
organizations will not only be safeguarding the rights of
the innocent but Will also be making their own important
contribution to the nations general security program"

n-Christian refusal to grant the
Presidents urgent plea.
Grain for India is advocated by

for Democratic Action, an effect

Editor, The Express:
1t is a disgrace to the politici-
ans responsible, and a shame up
on our country that President
Truman's repeated appeal for the
shipment of grain to India to stop
famine there is being ignored and
bottled up in the House Rules
Committee by the usual combina-
ton of reactionary Republicans
and reactionary Dixiecrats. We
have the surplus grain; and the
Hindus, due to no fault of their
own, have the famine. Decency,
ethics, belief in the brotherhood
of man, and sound craftsmanship
alike demand that President Tru-
mans plea be granted. But the
Dixiecrats hate Truman so much
because he advocates stronger en-

Football Roundup
By the Associated Press

With the exception of the Army Navy affair and a few scattered games across the country this week, the book was closed today on the 1851 college football season.
 The participants in two of the four major bowls have been de- cided, and one team has been selec- ted for each of the other two.
 The concensus seems to be that the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans has the best teams for the annual New Years Day games. The Rose Bowl probably will be next. followed by the Cotton and the Orange.
 Unbeaten Tennessee, the nations No l team, and Maryland, cur rently ranked No. 4, collide in the Sugar Bowl ard it should be a battle to see. On the basis of it's stunning 28-0 victory over Ken lucky Saturday. the Vols probably will rule favorites.
 Maryland, too. scored humping triumph, defeating West Virginia, 54-7.
 Rose Bowl
 The Rose Bowl gets Illinois and Stanford, champions, respectively of the Big Ten and Pacific Coast conferences. Neither outfit was ex- pected to finish near the top before the season got under way.
 California, the September fav- orite on the coast, finally did beat Stanford, 20-7, in the final game of the season for both schools. But it was too late to hurt the Indians in their quest for the title.
 Illinois made it, but not by much. In fact, it was a field zeal by Sam Rebecca in the I2-degree freeze of Evanston that enabled the Illini to defeat Northwestern, 80, and win the championship.
 Cotton Bowl
 The Cotton Bowl will send Ken lucky to battle the cnampiOn OI the Southwest Conference. which has not been decided However, Texas Christian has the inside track at the moment. Their 22-6 deci- sion over Rice Saturday broke first-place tie.
