attempts to be neutral Is much
like the ostrich And he has no
right to be surprised or amazed
when the target he so readily pre-
sents is fired upon.
But the target of the Jew is
fired upon anyway, if not by the
White Citizens Council he has
joined then by the Khan and the
local white Protestant hate groups
that won't allow him to join. The
Jews, however, are few in number
in the South. and not everyone
who stands outside the firm bound

labeled a Jew; these others, then,
are labeled Communists. The en-

are atheists, socialists. commun-
lists, red republicans, jacobins . =,

Mental Health Conspiracy
The Montgomery patriots who
dedicate themselves to roofing out
the Communist-Jewish conspiracy
have been successful in breaking
up any groups of traitors" in
town who do not adhere to the
Southern segregation stand. An
interracial prayer group of local
church women, many Of them
wives of well-known Montgomery
business and religious leaders, had
been meeting for four or five years
to sing hymns, pray and have cof-
fee together, but this treasonous
conspiracy was wrecked in Sep !
TENDER of 1858 when the local
segregation patriots took down Ii
Cense numbers of the attending
ladies, took pictures OF them as
they came out of the church where |.
they had met. and published their
names and the names Of their hus- T.
bands businesses in the Home
News. The ladies began to receive
threatening and obscene phone
calls, husbands publicly denied ap-
prevail of their wives treachery
some took ads in the Montgomery
Advertiser, disassociating them
selves from their wives guilty /.
activities and the group has not I.
met since.
An even more subtle conspiracy
was uncovered recently by the
Jealous followers of the Home
News and the xxx This was the
establishment Of a branch of the
Mental Health Society in Mont
gOmery. Its meetings at first were
quite well attended, but then the
Kan and its Crommeln friends
turned out to picket and distribute
literature explaining that mental
health" was only another aspect Of
the Communist-Jewish conspiracy.
The aim Of the Mental Health Soc
iety was to "brainwash" good
SOutherners into accepting integ-
ration. 1t was further revealed that
these mental health" people had
a secret hospital in Alaska where
SOutheners were taken to have
lobOtomies performed on them
which changed them once and for
all into accepting communism and
Indignation. To further prove their
case against mental health Of
there indeed could be any doubts
left, the patriots" pointed out
that most psychiatrists are Jews.
The people who had been attend
ing the mental-health meetings
may not have been convinced of
the logic Of the attack on their
society, but they were genuinely
frightened at the xxx. picket
lines which greeted them before
and after the meetings. Attend
ance dropped off until the society
decided not to hold any more pub
lie meetings; their last gathering
was held under the auspices of an
other local organization not tarn-
ished by the stigma of mental
health"
The local patriots of segregation
are actually wise in seeing mental
health" as a threat to all they hold
dear, for the current segregation
pattern of Montgomery Is one OF
the most intricate pieces Of in
sanity on exhibit in the Western
world. Its complex absurdity car
perhaps be glimpsed by the follow.
ing illustration: physicians offices
in Montgomery have separate, seq.
regated waiting rooms, but many
doctors have colored receptionists
lawyers offices have single, in.
tegrated" waiting rooms, but only
white receptionists.
The growing hysteria surround
ing the protection of the compile
ated local traditions Of segrega
ton not only makes any criticism
Of them by native whites a sigr
Of treason, but any violation Of
them by outsiders, however unin
territorial, a hostile and probably
conspiratorial act of aggression
