I read from an Associated Press dispatch of April 30: Kunze spoke to the accompaniment of Nazi salutes from the crowd as they sang the "Horst Wessel"Whatever the Horst Wessel isI do not know the meaning of the words. but the paper stated that it is the German Nazi Party anthem. while a fife and drum corps played. Further quoting the Associated Press dispatch: Kunze predicted that Congress soon would enact legislation to make the United States "a white mans Christian country again." That is one thing that Mr. Kunze said that I agree with and I would like to begin by deporting all the Kunzes in this country back to the country whence they came and where they belong. Now. just listen to this if you are hunting for candidates for deportation and concentration camps. I quote from the dispatch: Calling the German Fuehrer "the prophet of labor." Kunze said "Hitlers spirit has inspired laboring men of America to make this country free for dignified. respectable. and courageous labor." Well. if Herr Hitler does this. he will do something for labor in America that he has not done for labor in Germany. and there are not wanting reports that labor in Germany is not so happy. I commend to the workingmen of America the proposition that the Nazi dictator is going to make this country "free for dignified. respectable. and courageous labor" by a "putsch." Mr.
