FIVE OENTS 1 Civil Rights Bill- UNMASKED' WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO KNOCK IT OUT? S. S. United States In 1789, Our Forefathers banded together thirteen colonies and set out to build a SHIP- a SHIP OF STATE. This ship was to sail over the land and sea waves of the newly discovered America as a FREEDOM SHIP for its people who had come here to exercise their religious freedom. In order to build this Freedom Ship, a shipyard was needed, which at that time was occupied by the Redcoats. An army was needed to clear thi,s land, hence the American militiamen were called on, and were organized into what was known as The Minutemen, which grew larger into an Army led by General George Washington. After many battles on land and sea and at the cost of many Jives, the land for the shipyard was cleared and the keel for the new ship was laid. The ship was to be named the S. S. UNITED STATES and the keel \\as named the CON::;n1GTIUN. Elected Captain of this proud ship was the JeadE!r of the American Revolution, George Washington. Next to be elected were the Senate and Congress, who as representatives of the people would be the officers aboard this ship and be responsible for her safety. Leaders of other branches of government were elected, but down in the hold of this mighty ship were the people, who were riding on the Constitutional keel and formed a powerful engine, which would be the driving force, keeping her on a straight true course to freedom. The S. S. UNITED STATES was launched July 4, 1776 and sailed with pride for many years, but the people grew careless and allowed the outside of her hull to become coated with foreign barnacles and boring from the inside by red termites. Guns were mounted on her decks and rifles handed the people. In 1917 she ran aground on the beaches of a foreign country involved in a bloody war. After much money was spent and many lives were lost, t his great ship pulled off the foreign beach and floundered back to her shores, carrying more foreign barnacles and red termites. Twenty years of sabotage again sent this SHIP OF STATE into a second world war on a foreign land and after suffering the cost of many more lives and much money she again returned to her shores, riddled with foreign infiltration and listing dangero ly. oday the good ship S. S. United States is going down, unless you, her passengers, come out of the hold and start fighting to keep her afloat. You elected these officers to run this ship. They are waiting for you to tell them what course to take. ACT ;,JOW! The red termites are at work_-night and day-:trymg to put ~he f,mshmg toucher on. this once proud ship. .

Rainier, Maryland G National Emergency Alert This EMERGENCY ALERT is issued for the purpose of alerting the American public, regardless of race, to the imminent and dangerous threats to our few remaining constitutional rights, freedoms and liberties posed by the so-called Civil Rights Bill now awaiting action in the U. S. Senate. Dissenting members of the House Judiciary Committee have reported that " IN TRUTH AND IN FACT, the bill under the cloak of protecting the civil rights of certain minorities, will DESTROY civil rights of ALL citizens of the United States who fall within its scope, and that Congress would abnegate its duty to consider and protect All of the Nation's citizens." t is impossible for the average citizen to realize how seriously this proposed unconstitutional legislation will adversely affect his life and the future of these United States until he has read "Unmasking th Civ" "ghts Bill," issued by Fundamental ~erican Freedoms, Inc., Suite 520, 301 First St., N.

..~'_ _ __!C.~o.'!!Emmon Sense Cid Rights Bill - Unmasked - 0- Continued from page 1 ONE OF MANY FIGHTERS - 0- fare-Statism, One-Worldism and Communism . Now, of all_ things, we are being told that we must have One-Racism, regardless of our Constitution. We have suffered through the debauchery ot our currency; the corruption of our officials, high and low; the sell-out and surr mder of our sovereignty and our Army, Navy and Air Force through treasonable and traitorous acts of officials in our Government ; the humiliation of seeing our Flag de!iecrated in foreign lands a nd innocent citizens imprisoned and murdered in cold blood; our fliers shot down and ransom paid for t heir release; members of our Armed Forces taken prisoners, and murdered in cold blood, and others still prisoners and slaves to this day; property of citizens and the United States stolen, confiscated and destroyed without compensation; and ,finally, the Monroe Doctrine scrapped and foreign enemy troops sta,tioned witlhin 90 miles of our shores in a ppeasement of the most murderous, tyrannical, lying traitor that has ever trod the face of the earth. · What has this to do with the Civil Rights Bill? ~erything. It. points up t o the fact that thJS deathly s1clrness and erosion of principles within our Government has spread like a cancerous growth until it has now infected our whole Nation. The Executive and Judicial Branches of our Government, through unconstitutional actions, have at11empted to appease the Negro race and we now have the Legislative Branch attempting he same thing through this unconstitutional 'Civil Rights BIii . Among the 130 members f the House of Representatives wh o had the UTS and integrity to remain true to their aths to uphold and defend the Constitution d refused to right for a mess of pottage, Representative Louis C. Wyman, New Hampshire, had this to say, as extracted from his speech reported in the Congressional Record, Feb. 10, 1964: "For what it is worth I give th.is 'opinion as a graduate of the Harvard Law School, Attorney General of one of the States for nearly a decade, a nd twice chairman of the !American Bar Association's Standing Committee on-Juris11r 11de11ce and Law Refonn for the cow1try. "Th.is legislation makes a mockery of th.El Constitution. To yield to pressure for an unconstitutional law because of sympathy for IIOOial jnjJmtice is to sa.y that the end justifies the means . . . . "I came here to uphold the Constitution, not to dest,qy it. To 111,h.old it, I am compelled to vot., against this bill .. .. "It me11-ns finally that th.ere is no power in this (11111gress to legislate as is here proposed in ri:g:arp to private lives, private J}µ,si- and individual a ctivity within and lUII0Dg tl)e several States having nothu1i; to do with interstate commerce and not con- stituting State action. "And j t is tl)e sheel'e.st hypocrisy to cont.end tllat by so defining such private conduct it becomes constitutionally amenable to Federal law when the power to enact the law was never given to t he Fe1leral Govern· ment in the Constitution. It is hypocrisy com1,ounded by fra 111l 111,011 the peo11le to ignore these ba,,ic truths because some members believe ther e a re more votes for their reel(l('tion to be found in 11erpetrati11g t he fraud th.ru1 in protecting the CotJStitutional rights of the 1ieople-all the people, both white and colored, P ro1 estant, Catholic, J ewish and disbeliever. "Th.ere are still many prh'aie rights in America that uniler our Constitution a re beyond the power 11f Government to regulate, and one of 1h.ese is the right to 1>ick a nd choo!ite oue's a-sSCK'iatPs, one's friends a nd oM's <'Ustomers iu privatP business . • . . " It is way past 1ime here when some pretty plain English was spoken-on the 'l'hi.s one last chance lies within 111-~ United States Senate where 100 Senators are bound by their oaths to support and d!lfend the Constitution of the United States. Since this Civil Rights Bill is clearly unconstitutional, these 100 Senators cannot remain true to their oaths and vote for this legislation. It is up to those of us who cherish our Constitution to let these 100 Senators know that we expect them to live up to their oaths. To that end \Ve offer the following suggestions: (1) To members of the Armed Forces and their families who have had a foretaste of this bill through that infamous "Gesell Report" (See Roll Call Newsletter, Oct. 29, 1963 - c_opy on request ) that is being rammed down your throats, we say get busy today and write, phone telegraph both of your Senators and let them know in no uncer tain words what you thin k of this bill. (2) To National and State Commanders of the American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars and the Disabled American Veterans, we say go all out to have all P ost Commanders call special meetings of their membership and urge each individual to protest this legislation to both of his Senators. · (3) To patriotic, civic, fraternal, religious a nd other veteran organizations we say to hold mass protest meetings against this legislation and urge everyone to swamp their Senators with letters, telegrams and phone calls. @ , Senator 81cbard .li• .Bussell (D-Ua,) Sen. Russell and many otl1er Democrats and Republicans, North nod South, know that this so-called " Civil Rights" Bill is a vicious Bill, designed to ruin our Nation, and are fighting hard to defeat it. · They need your help. Let them hear your voice loud and clear; ,record and not just in the cloakrooms-so th.at we may get hold of ourselves and not go off the deep end with this legislation. It is common lmowledge that if a secret ballot could be taken on this bill in its present f orm IT WOULD NOT GET 50 VOTES. " If we do not stand up and be c oU11te d in this ch.amber for what we !mow is legally required by the Constitution of the Unite1l States of America, then what are we presening? Do we have · majority rule in this land or don't we? A substantial proportion of tJie Members of th.is House are lawy ers, sworn to uphold the Constitution as lawyers, and sworn again as l\Icmbers. This is our oath, this is our duty. this iR our spon~ibiHty •• • . " Since he above words were spoken by Representative Wyman, 290 members of the House of Representat ives delibera tely violated · their oaths of office by voting for this unconstitut ional legislation. These same Representatives " ·ere no doubt aware of the fact when t hey voted for this legislation that right in our Nation's capital city of Washington, white women and girls have been, and are being, attacked, raped, and beaten unmercifully in broad daylight in churches, offices, stores and homes. If this vicious Civil Rights Bill should pass, what can we expect next? We have seen our Constitution slowly destrayed through tl1e "NEW DEAL," the "FAIR DEAL," the "SURRENDER DEAL," and the "NEW FRONTIER DEAL." Now tJhat we are supposed to have been sufficiently brain-washed and inured t o stomach anything, we a re. being handed, thr ough this socalled Civil Rights Bill, the "RO'ITEN DEAL." For the information of the Negro-Communist -appeasing members of the Executive, Judicial and' Legislative branches of our govemment, and their aiders and abettors, the white people of this nation feel that it is t ime we received a "SQUARE DEAL," as guaran teed to us under the provisions of the greatest document ever devised by human minds and hands-THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. After reading thirty 11ages of fine pril1t in the Congressional Record of J uly 29, 1963, which. outlines t he subversive character and communist front affi liations of many leaders of the NAACP, we are firmly convinced that this legislation, which. they a re attempting to push through Cong,·ess by intimidation, is nothing but a Communist calculated plan of enforced race-mixing t o divide, subvert a nd mongl'elize this nation to the poi nt \\·hei·e it will be a push-over for !he Communists. There appears to be only one chance left to defeat this unconslitutional legislation and save our nation from a nother Civil Wara Civil War that this time will be fought between white and black races. , or Civil Rights - is nothing but a dishonorable political racket . We are ashamed of the members of both par ties who are trying to jam this so-called "Civil Rights" Bill down our throat. This can only harm citizens who ·e helpless pawns in th is despicable political power play. \\11y 'do we send them to Wa,;hington? To protect our freedom and our property as prescribed in the Constitution. The Constitution which all office holdera swear on the Bible to support, expressly prohibits Co11gress from passing this law.

Now, MR. AMERICAN, read the follo\\~ng by Mr. John C. Satterfield, Past President of t he American Bar Association, who tells frankly about your future IF YOU PERl\UT l)'Ollr Senators and Congressmen to enact this CIVIL RIGHTS Bll,L INTO LAW! • • • • EXTREi'\lE PROPOSALS TIGHTENE D IN'l'O EXTREME COi'\lPROUISE Supporters of the pendii:ig CML RIG~TS l3Il,L call it a "compromise." But those who have been following t he progress of the debate report that the latest version can ha, dly be called moderate. The truth is, two or three wildly extreme proposals have been tightened into one extreme compromise. No matter what minor adjustments have been made, the typical American citizen WILL FIND THAT IT rs ms FREEDOM .WHICH HAS BEEN COMPROMISED. Some vague passages have been more clearly defined. But the bill still provides for a sweeping extension of Federal power into new areas. And the penalties are harsher, IF A MAN BELONGS TO A UNION, for instance, he'll find that his seniority rights take second place to the whim of a Federal commission. A union member may be laid off or fired and a non-union member hired in his place if a Federal agent decides that !Jis employer has been discriminating. A HOME OWNER WILL DISCOVER. that he can no longer choose the buyer or tenant for his house. Federal personnel will make the decision whether or not a prospect is acceptable. Federal personnel \\ill also have the authority to withhold or apply the stam11 · iOf appr oval on archit.ects, realtors, or lawyers involved in the transaction. A BANK DEPOSITOR may suddenly find out that his savings no longer ha\·e the guarantee of Federal insurance. A Federnl ~ency can decide that the !Jank has. discriminated against another customer, and order FDIC insurance withdrawn. A SODA FOUNTAIN OPERATOR, for •the ~t. ..time,. wil ave a --requil.-ement:-to -serve all customers, even if it is bad for his business. The civil righ ts bill would make it

impossible for him to ask the police to protect

,his property ir the event it appears that a ,riot or disturbance may break out over racial problems. For, since the bill construes ,.such protection as a "state acti<m" and thus ,prohibited by the Fourteenth Amendment, · the Sta te, itself, is prohibited from interifering (abett ing). A FIT,E CLERK or A STE NOGRAPHER ·would soon r\)alize that a bility or neatness may no longer be the crucial qualifications in getting a job. Two girls of equal a bility would first have to meet the test of race and religion. A person of one race could not be h ired where "too many" people iif tha t particular race were already employed. A person of one religion could not be considered where t here were "too many" of that faith already at work. In fact, THE STR,\i\GEST TI-][?\G ABOUT THE BILL is that it requires a reempha~is on America's d\\indling race consciousne,;s. FEDERAL AGE1,CIES ARE EXPLICITLY EMPOWERED to demand lhe U. S. Constitution protects him uom unreasonable search and seizure. But n,· the pmuling CIVIL RIGH!fS LEGISLATION is passed, the homeowner will no longer be free to use and dispose of his prnperty as in the past whenever his home has bee" financed in the usual manner. "A Senator who is amu-e of treas ou but who refuses to expose the dangerous, Llll· pleasant facts for fear that he will be politically scarred and bloodied if he does is acting guiltier of greater tr eason than ti1e t raitors t hemseh-es. Every Senator has the duty to use the means provided by the Coustitutiou t o protect the people who have entrusted him with the tusk of manning the watchtowers of this nation." -Senator Joseph lt. McCarthy racial and religious records from business and Lmions. Elaborate racial bookkeeping set-ups can be required, under heavy Federal penalties. FEDERAL AGENTS ARE GIVEN 'rHE .POWER TO ENTER any irnlu,i.dal or union property, seize records, question employees and members, and investigate any "matter as may be a1111ro11riatc," to quote the words of the bill. In short, there arc two regions of NEW FEDERAL POWER opened up, in ti1e name of protecting the civil r ights of evet·yone. The first one is the power t o TERMINATE FEDERAL GRANTS, which t otal multiple billions of dollars each yem·, and hold a life and death powe1· over the financial stability of whole cities and regions. This vast a uthority would be turned over to Federal agencies without laying down any of the traditional protections of due process of law, rules for receiving .evidence, or holding proper h earings. Under this bill, A FEDERAL AGENT HAS ONLY TO MAKE "AN EXPRESS FINDING." In this, he would be guided by his own ,whim, prejudice or caprice. Tlie judicial review" provided will be of little value. The other cxlraordinary powei- is the close rcgu~ ti_on of e!"plc,yment, promotion and firing. FEDERAL BUREAUCRACY WILL CONTROL T HE BASIC DECISIONS OF vVORKERS AND THEIR BOSSES. It ineans tha t -}'ederal control will move in to such sensitive a,;eas as the TEACHING FACULOF SCHOOLS and COLEGES, nubile a l_ld privat_e, a nd the writing staffs of NE\VSPAPERS and MAGAZINES. MANY CITIZENS HAVE NEVER REALI ZED that the scope of U1e CIVIL RIGHTS BILL WAS SO IMMODERATE. ·ms CIVIL RIGHTS IN TUE LIVING ROOl\l The American homeowne,· feels secure in his living room. Ilis home is his castle. And Hot Line To Washington You can mal1e your voice heard by lOur two U. S. Senators in 15 words or Jess through a Ul'W We,!ern l -nion rate for only 8J,•. The mes.age mu<t be a n ,,,,pre.sion of personal opinion ot au is,ue of general, national or regional interest. Many homeowners assume that U1e UVIL RIGHTS BILL has nothing to do .vith tilem. They assume the proposed legislaiiion has something to do with voting rights or education. They think that because they do not operate a large corporation in interstate commerce they will escape FEDER ,U, REGULATION. That isn't so. The CIVIL RIGHTS .BILL grants power tmder which may be required FEDERAL APPROVAL of the deal '7hen the hmu conner got•s t o sell.

If, in U1e opinion of a FEDERAL INi:iPECTOR, the homeowner's acceptance c ,·ejection has the effect of discriminating on grounds of I ace or national origin-mtentionally or unintentionally-then the deal can be .topped. If a white man and a :-legro man with ti1e same qualifications applied for the same vacancy, then the rnce would be the deciding test. This ~itu<1tion is contrary to the irr i1es. ·on most people haYc of the CIVIL RIGHTS BILL. But "Ci\il Rights" is only the CQ'IIC up for a giant instmment of FEDERAL ',ONTROL; the word "discrimination" is nowhe1·e defined in the text. The fact is-this bl 1 sets up bl'oad powers of FEDERAL POLICE ACTION to manipulate the social tI mli11re ill an effort to use FEDERAL FOR•"" to cure racial imbalance." lfo111eowncrs are caught in the midi' • by the section which puts a vise on FEDl!Jl <\I.LY ASSISTED PROGRAMS.

BILL What civil and property rights of 180 mil- Bon ·citiuns are impaired by the so-called Oivil Rights Bill? If the proposed legislation is enacted, the President of the United States and his appointees-particularly the Attorney General -would be granted the power to seriously imp{lir the following civil rights of those who fall within the scope of the various titles of. this bill: L The right of freedom of speech and freedom of the press concerning "discrimination or segregation of any kind" "at any establlslunent or place," as delineated in the bill (sees. 202-203). 2. The right of homeowners to rent, lease, or sell 1heir homes as free indiviiluals (secs, 601-602). 3. The right of realtors and ilevelopers of resl4ential property to act as free agents (secs. 601-602) , 4. The right of banks, savings and loan ll&Sociations and other financial institutions to make loans and extend credits in accord· ance with their best judgment (secs. 601· 602), 5. The right of employers "to hire or discharge any individual" and to determine "his compensation, terms, conditions, or privileges of employment" ( title VII) , 6, The seniority rights of employees in corporate and other employment (title VII, title VI via sec. 711 ( h) ) • 7. The seniority rights of all persons nuder the Federal civil service (sec. 711 (a) ). 8, The seniority rights of labor llllion membei-s witbiu U1e.i:r locals and in their apprenticeship programs ( title II, title VI via sec. 711 (b) ), 9. The right of labor wtlons to choose their members, to determine the rights accorded to their members, and to determine the relationship of their members to eacb other (title VII, title VI via sec. 711 (b) ). 10. The right of farmers to freely choose their tenants and employees ( title VI and title VII). 11, The right of farm organizations to choose their members, to determine the rights accorded to their members, and the relatipnship of their members to each other .(title VI and title VII) . 12. The right of boards of trustees of publlo and private schools and colleges to determine the handling of students and teaching staffs (title IV, title VI, title VII). 13. The right of owners of inns, hotels, motels, restaurants, cafeterias, . lwtchrooms, soda fountains, motion picture honses, theaters, ·concert halls, sports arenas, stadinms and other places of entertainment to freely carry on their bnsiness in the service of their customers ( title II, title VI, and .t itle VII), H. The right of the States to detennine the qualifications of voters in all Federal elections and many State elections (title I). 15. The right of litigants to r eceive evenhanded justice in the Federal courts; this legislation places civil rights litigants (particularly the Attorney General) in a special category with preference and advantage not afforded parties in any other form of litigation (sec. 101 (d), title IX) . The depth, the revolutionary meaning of this act, is almost beyond description. It cannot be circumscribed, it cannot be said that it goes this far and no farther. The language written into the bill is not of that sort. It has open-end provisions that give it whatever depth and intensity one desires to read into it. In the language of the bill, "The President is authorized to take such action as may be appropriate to prevent • • • " (sec. 711 (b) ) , and "Each Federal department and agency • • • shall take action to effec.t uate • • " (sec. 602) . This vests, of course, Common Sense almost unlimited authority in the President and his appointees to do whatever they desi~e. It is, in the most literal sense, revolutionary, destructive of the very essence of life as it has been lived in this country since the adoption of our Constitution. Write to your U. S. Senators t-Oday to vote against this llll-American civil rights bill! Now that the reports of the House Judiciary Committee have been published, discussion in Washington has been ·stirred afresh. Congressmen regard their mail as a barometer of public sentiment. They are watching closely to see whether homeowners react strongly to the new FEDERAL CONTROLS or not. If your Senator or your Congressman supports and passes HR 7152 (S. 1731), he will have filmed-up your future in the UNITED NATIONS and the WORLD GOVERNMENT of INTERNATIONAL SOCIAL· ISM and TOTALITARIAN DICTATORSHIP! If this 88th Congress, 2nd Session passes this bill, YOUR AMERICAN CONSTITUTIONAL INDEPENDENCE AND FREEDOM WILL HAVE BEEN TAKEN AWAY FROM YOU PERMANENTLY: Get busymake your wishes known! Keep on Writing The debate on- the Civil Rights Bill \\·ill doubtless continue for some weeks. Extraordinary pressures of all kinds, including "arm twisting," are being brought to bear on senators by the Administration, in order to gain their support. The senators opposed to this disastrous piece of legislation need your support. Congress must continue to receive floods of letters from all over the country. No other bill is comparable in importance. Write to Minority Floor Leader Senator Everett Dirksen (R. Ill.) and urge him to stick by his original statement opposing this bill. Write to Senator Richard Rnssell (D. Ga.) in praise of his splendid opening speech to the Senate against the Civil Rights Bill. Let him know that the country is behind him and is counting on him.

' "Because the President has put his heart and his nnmatcl1ed knowledge of Congress behind the bill," the league said, "and be· cause it is·a Southerner in the White House who will be appealing to the South, the bill has become more possible to pass." The report warned, however, against weakening of the bill by what Mr. Johnson has on occasion called "the art of the possible." "Too often," the repo1t said, "the 'possible' implied a watered-down resnlt ·obtained without struggle, tears or challenge to tbe powers-that-be. But what is possible without struggle is quite different from what is possible with sweat and tears. The analysis was prepared by two league officials who spend much of their time on Capitol Hill working on legislation. They are Herman Edelsberg, director of the (ADL) Washington office, and David. A. Brody, Washlngton counsel. ' Mr. Edelsberg said that effmts to trim the civil rights bill as it goes through Congress this session would doubtless concentrate on two sections-outlawing discrimination in employment and at places of public accommodation. The report made the point tl1at tl1ere might be moves t o trade these provisions away t o end the inevitable Southern filibuster in the Senate. The report saw the Senate Republican Leader Everett McKinley Dirksen of Illinois in a crucial position. He .J,as ..,aid he ;,. eppo:,ed to the public accommodation provision. However, the report asked whether he would, nevertheless, vote to close Senate debate on the bill. Without his aid, there is almost no chance to get the needed two-thirds vote for closure. The league praised what it called the "political courage" of Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy in the maneuvers that got the bill out of the House Judiciary Committee last fall. Mr . Kennedy was credited with "belling the cat" when he said that a House Judiciary subcommittee version of the measure, supported by some liberals, "was overloaded to the point where it conld drive away the

Republican support without which it could

11ot pass. The league's report also saw a number of factors aside from President Johnson's interest working towards civil rights action in Congress. It mentioned sympathy for President Kennedy's program in the wake of his assassination, extraordinary civil rights activity . by ehurch groups and the evident determination of "the Negro himself. "Never before has there been so much support for oivil rights legislation," the re- port declared.
