2/Thursday, April 25,1985/THE BLUE BANNER j[BaTO[ttriAn New Order displays disorderly thinking They try to tell us, the people who write the letter appearing on this page under the "In Your Opinion" heading, that it is a myth that six million people died at the hands of the Nazis in WWII. They try to tell us that Hitler, the perpetrator of these murders, was a decent, even admirable human being. They try to persuade us that those of his henchmen who are still alive, and for whom Beate Klarsfeld and others are seeking just punishment, are nothing more than, as they claim in one of the flyers with which they've been blanketing our campus, "aging anti-Communist refugees who have never hurt anyone in this country." Apparently they have never met a woman, a U.S. citizen, who tells, with tears in her eyes, of the children and husband she saw swallowed alive in the hellish maw of a death camp. Apparently they have never seen an American man roll up his sleeve to reveal the indelible numbers tatooed on his arm by some SS trooper forty plus years ago. Apparent ly they think concentration camp survivor Elie Wiesel was lying when he told President Reagan in a speech last Friday, "One million Jewish children have perished...I have seen them being thrown into the flames — alive!" If this is not so, then it seems improbable that they could so vehement ly gainsay the evidence of Nazi mass killings, and call those "witch hunters" who are seeking the murderers. However, perhaps they could say this even if they have seen and do believe, for in reading their literature one is forced to conclude that these neo-Nazis believe that nearly every person who died in the concentration camps was a Communist spy or sympathizer and was thus "properly executed." One wonders how they explain why so many of those who died were children. In addition, any group that blatantly states that "all men are NOT created equal," and that admits that even within the "superior" white race "science should work to eliminate hereditary weaknesses and defects," and to encourage "a high birthrate among those sections of the White population which are the healthiest, strongest and most intelligent," seems to hold in abeyance the sacredness of human life, reserving it only for those deemed fit to survive. In their letter they call for a "spiritual awakening." One wonders of what spirit they speak. It could not be a Christian one, for the Bible says in Acts 17:24 and 26; "God that made the world and all things therein.. .hath made of one blood all nations of men, for to dwell on the face of the earth." According to this text, in following a course of racial isolation, members of the New Order are cutting themselves off from their own blood brothers and sisters of all races. — ArUia Paulette Witt NewsSditor Kramp SpoiisE{}tor ‘„ OohMcElroih Features Editor ^,., - * David Proffitt Arts/EoferfahmentEditor : ChrisStreppa Photogrof^y Editor ; SyhrJoHawkim CirwlatimandBr0motfonsM:mag0 Donna Jarrttt AdvBrtisingManager,...., Karen Noffsi/tger ■Advisor ; ;!

College Press Service DM WJia WMJW The New Order explains itself Dear Editor: Since our recent distribution of racialist literature, the question has arisen; What is the New Order? The New Order is a National So cialist community representing a re volutionary new faith, and a great historic movement. We are comprised of white men and women of all ages and social back grounds who are committed to buildiing a better world for future generations of their race. Our program is in our name: We stand for a revoluntionary New Order in American life. Today we live under an Old Order which is corrupt, decacdent and diseased—a mad, psychotic system of mindless materialism, self-indulgence, drugs, pollution, pornography, race- mixing, filth, chaos and alienation. It is the way of death, and more and more people are caning to recognize it as such. But there is a better way, a way of life. That way calls for the eli mination of the egocentric/material istic outlook. It calls for a new awareness and understanding. It involves a spiri tual awakening, and calls for a re birth of idealism and natural values. It begins with the realization that we are part of something much bigger than our individual selves; that man is part of a great natural order; that to be healthy and whole, he must act in accordance with its laws; and that among its ordinances are the laws of race and racial con servation. As National Socialists, we see ourselves as part of a world Aryan community and a new folk in formation. No multiracial society can be vi able in the long run. That is why we want to build a separate, all-white society, with its own unique culture and way of life. Toward that end, it is the func tion of the New Order to provide a focus for the moral and spiritual mobilization of our race. Our task is to give it a sense of common identity, common purpose and common direction, and to furnish it with a set of common values and ideals essential for survival in an increas ingly chaotic and disoriented world. Ours is more than just another organization. We represent a cause — the most sacred cause of all time. We are the movement of Adolf Hitler. We are his heirs. He has given us a great commission which it is our duty to discharge. For it was Adolf Hitler who came into the world to remind modem man of nature’s eternal laws, and to make them the basis for a miraculous regen eration in human affairs. That is why we proudly recognize him as the greatest figure of the age, and why we regard his cause as the one great hope for Aryan mankind on this earth. And for Beate Klarsfeld and her witch hunters, the time has come to end the Six Million myth! New Order P.O. Box 88 Arlington, Va. ' 22210 Due to limited space, letter and opinion writers should restrict their submissions to 500 words in length.
