(By N. C. W. C. News Service) NEW YORK—In an address entitled Nations in Nightshirts,” in which be condemned both Fascism and Com munism, Secretary of the Interior Har old L. Ickes castigated the Ku Klux spirit. He spoke at the annual meeting of the Civil Liberties Union. "Shortly after the World War,” he said, "America, as a land of liberty, was menaced by the madness of men in nightshirts. Citizens, who, thereto fore, and again thereafter, were decent and law abiding, with a due regard for the rights and privileges of others with whom they had long dwelt in neighborly amity, became temporarily mad in a craze to squeeze into uni formity the rieh and diversity of de mocracy. They had created a duty to hate men born in other countries, al though their own ancestors had all been torn there. They created a duty to suspect every man torn in this country erf one race and religion, heap ing contumely upon negroes, Jews and Catholics. Riding forth at night in the anonymity of cowardice, they dragged men from their beds, tarring and fea thering, assaulting, and. in some in stances, even killing their victims. They’ hypnotized themselves into be lieving that they did these things to improve our civilization, to protect our institutions, to keep our blood stream pure. "Where benighted men of our own country at one time indulged in a mo ronic exhibitioism which disgraced the nation, we now find nations that toast of their civilizations committing deeds of unprovoked violence against their neighbors. And, just as it was with Ku Kluxers tore, these nations in night shirts pretend to believe that they are doing their daily good deed. Invading armies are sent across the borders of other countries that are so weak and helpless as to offer a helpless prey. ’ He condemned those who, pretend ing they are striving to save the world from Communism, ruthlesly suppress liberties in the name of Fascism. He also, however, denounced Commu nism, saying that "from the view of de mocracy the two arc fundamentally the same thing.” Merry Christmas aa4 Happy Hew Year Winker PAINT & GLASS COMPANY ) Broad St Phones 74 and Father McDonnell officiated at the marriage late in November of Miss Mae McBrearty, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles McBrearty, and Mar tin Joseph Callahan, Jr., a marriage which united two of Macon’s most widely known Catholic families.
