National Society for the Prese

or of cohabitation."
Mr.. Goward's letter follows:
The story captioned white Su-
premacists" which appeared on the
front page of the August 26th
Minneapolis Spokesman was so
thoroughly saturated with lies and
distortions that 1 have no choice
but to demand a retraction or a
printing of this letter so that the
real facts can be set straight. If
you will not comply the National
Society for the Preservation of the
White Race (NSPWR) will be
compelled to institute immediate
legal action against the Mime
apOlis Spokesman.
First we will point out the lies.
Ny son, who was referred to in
the Spokesman as "a bare II years
of age, is actually over IA years
of age. He was not made to re-
cite" an incident of chastizement
at jefferson school. He was pol
itely requested to do so and he was
more than anxious to comply. That
is lie number one! My IA year
old boy did NOT state at any time
that the poison of his parents
are slowly eating away his rea-
SON.. That is lie number two. He
is allowed to think for himself. The
boy wasn't merely purported to
have been classified by his Negro
teacher but instead he WAS chas-
tized and to the extent that the
unprovoked back-slapping he re-
ceived left a painful singing SEN
sation for about 80 minutes after
ward At the August 18th meeting
of the NSPWR my IA year old
boy did state that he told the
teacher to keep his dirty hands"
off but actually to the teacher he
did not use those words.
My reference to the teacher as
a "niggeT' was used in the heat
of Indignation. One would act I'M
der such circumstances with a
person of the same race.
1t appears that the Negro feels
he is entitled to some sort of spec
ial immunity from slang usage
which the white man cannot en-
joy. 1t has always been a mystery
to me why the Negro resents be-
ing called a Niger. have never
heard anybody define it's meaning
and it is not in my dictionary.
For your satisfaction 1 will in
form you, however, that I rarely
refer to a Negro as a niger"
for such a reference is erroneous.
Our August 18th meeting was
not nearly torn assunder" as you
stated and as, am sure, you
would like to have your readers
believe. It was our first meeting
and perfect order certainly could
not be expected under such con-
ditions. Actually the meeting pro-
ceeded fully as well as could be
expected. The suggestion of chair
manship for Mr.. Guilmant was
made by a non-member and was
in no danger of receiving endorse
ment by a majority Of the men,
bers.
This was a gross exaggeration by
the Spokesman in an apparent at
tempt to discredit the NSPWR
and to make it appear disorgan-
lied.
The Spokesman statement that
it was a night of rabble-rousing
and all-around general stupidity
was untrue and unfair. The sole
objective of the NSPWR is to eff
fectively prohibit, through various
methods, the sexual intimacy be-
tween the white and the black
races, whether it be as a result of
marriage or of cohabitation. This
would, therefore, deprive the Ne
gro of one of his main sources of
sexual qualification and, of course,
he does not want that to happen.
For this alone we are called rab-
ble-rousers, white supremacists,
dolts, crack pots and little die
tators. You started the name-call-
ing. The reference to Mr.. Gull
mant as a half jig" was not
