Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 27 (L'F)fThEre’ are at least three organizations in | the south today around which racial agitation is centering. They are the American Fascisti order of Blackshirts, the White Band of Caucasian Crusaders and the Ku | Klux Klan For the moment the American Fascisti appears the most active. The White Band perhaps is| next, and the Ku Klux Klan seems but a shadow of its former self, al- though no one is entirely certain as| 1o its exact strength or the definite scope of its present activity. All three of these organizations nave headquarters in ‘Atlanta and the first two undoubtedly center their main strength, whatever it is, in that city. The Ku Klux Klan | maintains its organizations in other | states but seldom shows its hand. ‘While the other two organizations make rather indefinite claims as to their strength outside of the Georgia | capital, three weeks in the south failed to reveal to this writer defi- nite proof of their activity else- | where. The American Fascisti is the yvoungest of the three. It still is in he formative process and its appli- ation for a charter as an organiza- ion “to inculcate and foster in the | minds of its members and the pub- lic generally, white supremacy’ is still pening in the courts. It claims 0 have 15,000 applications for mem- oership “which are being acted upon as rapidly as possible.” Its mem- pership, like that of the old Klan, is largely secret; its meetings are tecret; and the only officer whose name is known to the public is H J. Gewinner, spokesman for the “‘ad- jutant-general's” office. R. A. Gor- don, R. 8. Gulledge axd H. J. Gi winner applied for the organiz: charter.

The associated aimed its first blows against communism, but soon turned to the Negro. Now it is hold- ing frequent meetings in Atlanta, with crowds said to number 1500 or more. Speakers harangue these zatherings, denoun the employ- ment of Negroes while white men are idle, making fiery statements on the race question and condemning communism at the same time. It has begun a campaign to “get jobs for white men” and claims to have displaced 500 Negroes in At- lanta business houses with w help.
