The instructions are to form units in the aircraft plants. These were the instructions contained in the reports. and very cleverly camouflaged is the purpose of the formation of these units or colonies. Of course. in order to understand this setup. whether you are dealing with the GermanAmerican Bund or the Communist Party. you must realize that these dictators abroad cleverly conceal the strategy of the "fifth column." The "fifth column" is not. as the President seemed to think yesterday. composed solely of noncitizens who are residing in a country. The "fifth column" is largely composed of citizens of the country. In the case of the Communist Party of California. Its report shows that one half of the membership was born abroad and the other half in the United States. In the case of the GermanAmerican Bund. I venture to say that 95 percent of the 100.000 members of that organization are Germans who came to the United States after the World War and have become citizens of the United States through naturalization. Many of them served in the German Army during the World War. Let us take up that organization.
