a shotgun before they had made

youngsters left the scene on foot
at a fast clip, but the harrowing
experience apparently did not de-

pose.
Tracks left by their shoes were
easily discernible in the sand and
they were followed to a cantaloupe
patch, where they devoured a num-
ber of melons, thence to a water-
melon patch on another farm,
where they either ate or destroyed
all the marketable melons in sight,
according to a report to the sher-
iff’s office.
The owner of the ransacked
melon patch came to Gainesville

at heart. Gentiles are told that
Jews are war-mongers, and “con-
trol" our government, our national
wealth, and what-not. The Ameri-
can-born are assured that our for-
eign-born have too much political
power and wealth. The jobless are
told that the country is being
"flooded” with refugees. The dis-
possessed are assured that democ-
racy is really plutocracy—of, by,
and for the rich. ■
The technique, therefore, is to
create in each and every group
fear and hatred of some other
group of Americans. Over-simpU-
fied explanations are offered to
explain the difficulties of each
group. The supposed facts they
cite to back up their charges are
manufactured out of whole cloth
or distorted beyond recognition.
Nothing would suit foreign dicta-
tors better than to divide the
American people against them-
