caption of "Silver Shirt Legion of America, Inc.; Internal Security - X,"
that the Silver Shirt Legion of America, Inc., whose leader is WILLIAM
DUDLEY PELLEY, was at that time operating under the name ofSoul Craft
Press, 111th headquarters and printing facilities in Noblesville, Indiana.
With regard to RALPH~, the indices of this office reflect
that as of J~, 1942, he was general manager of the Zimmermann Packing
Company, a mechanical packing firm at 139-141 West Fourth st., Cincinnati.

and the foregoing is for the Bureau's information and for the information
