Unity and disrupt the Home production authorities cited other reasons. Detroit a mayor Edward Jeffries called attention to tile influx of War workers from Southern states while the local Federal Bureau of investigation head cited tile a a Sion Vaneous culmination of racial that it might not be at All spontaneous but actually a carefully staged plot was indicated by a glance at the various Semi fast let and undemocratic organizations which flourish in Detroit. For some reason Detroit has been for Many years the stamping ground of such groups As the Black legion and the followers of demagogic Gerald l. K. Smith. Now rep. Dickstein reveals that the k. K. K. Is operating in that City As Well although under an assumed name. Promote racial discord these Are the groups trying to inject the unhealthy virus of race prejudice info the blood Stream of the City. In line with their own intolerant beliefs they Are doing t heir Best to alienate tile two races from each other. The race question grew particularly acute when the to first arrived to organize the workers Iii Detroit a huge Industrial centers. Unlike other unions the Cio permitted negroes and Whites to join up on an equal basis. In this they were opposed vigorously by groups such As the Buick legion Winch lost no Opportunity to spread vicious rumours in an Effort to promote racial discord within the Union locals. Sometimes their methods were crowned with Success. When tens of thousands of workers flocked to Detroit for War jobs a housing shortage resulted. Government agencies set aside housing projects for Many of the newcomers including one project that was reserved for negroes. The government was prevailed upon to turn Back that project to the Whites. La is left Many negroes without Homes and provoked exactly the dissension which the Black legion desired. Tile project was then turned Back to the negroes but Only after a great uproar. Sailors give answer the present riots seem off hand a further testimonial to these undemocratic groups. But they Are having Little effect on servicemen As indicated by tile following incident which occurred during tile riots. In front of the Detroit City Hall a gang of White youths began to close in on a negro. Three sailors none of them More than 20, stepped m and broke it up. He s not doing you any harm a me of tin sailors said mildly. A a let him one of the mobsters soaped Back.

There were also attacks on Syracuse near the Southwest Corner of the Island in which tie wellingtons in Bright Moonlight unloaded 4,000 Pounders on the port area and started a fire near the Harbor station. The attacks on Sicily continued All week with an occasional setup that seemed to mean nothing More than a Little rest for the bomber and fighter Crews and a breathing sign Eil for the islands inhabitants.
