Promoters of the German-American Bund apparently have made no effort to form organizations in Indianapolis, members of whose German colony are almost unanimously against the Bund's principles, Homer L.

Commenting on the South Bend action, Mr. Chaillaux said: "It is in line with the national program in opposition to Nazi, Fascist and Communist activities in the United States." He said indications were that the Bund was active at Fort Wayne, South Bend and Gary and other Calumet district cities, where young Germans recently come to the United States predominate, but that the organization was in disfavor at Indianapolis, Evansville and other places where the German settlements are older. performance was superb.
