Omaha Will Be Fascisti Center American Patriotic Society Promoted by Former K. K. Kleagle. Omaha will be national headquar ters for the Fascisti, of America. This was the announcement Mon day of Fdgar I. B'uller, former klcaglc of the Ku Klux Klau, who has writ ten a book, “The Ku Klux Bubble,” exposing the organization. Charter for the Fascisti was to be filed with the district clerk and secre tary of state Tuesday, Fuller said. “The Fascisti organization in Amer ica is unlike that of the Mussolini hand in Ttaly,” said Fuller. “Ours will not be one for political desire, but purely for patriotic purposes. "Tire organization has no religious scruples snd believes in the uphold ing of the rights of ft free and en lightened people to choose their own religion and to worship God accord ing to tho dictates of their own hearts.” Fuller, who claims to be the origi nator of tho American Fascisti, states that he Intends to make Omaha his home after his survey of the United ■States that took him to almost every part of the country where his agents report great progress in the new “black shirt” movement. B'uller showed a reporter for The Omaha Kvening Bee several congratu latory telegrams from prominent men living in several parts of the country. Fuller stated that It was the pur pose of the American Fascisti to tight in the open. The organization has adopted the name, Fascisti, not because of the political activities of Mussolini, but in admiration for a body of men w-ho were willing to sac* i ifir.e all to bring the rebellious into subservience to their flag, he says. All men are eligible to wear the “black shirt" who are natives or nat uralized citizens of this country and who have never committed crime or 1 reason. A member of the Fascisti must, without mental reservation, esteem the United States and Its in stitutions above any other government in the entire world. Fuller states that he has selected Omaha as the seat of his operations and will make Omaha the national headquarters, due to its central loca tion and tho instantaneous co-opera tion he has received since he has been here. He says he plans one of the biggest meetings of its kind ever staged in Omaha to bo held within the next few days. At this meetlnlg he expects to make his call for men to don the famed “black shirts.” Fuller expects to have several na tionally known patriotic speakers at this meeting. $10 Fine for Collision Thai Had Fatal Sequel A.
