Lindbergh Apes Hitler,
Pamphlet Charges
A documented pamphlet, de-
aigned to show that Charles A.
Lindbergh follows the Nazi
party line was published today.
under the title, “Is Lindbergh
a Nazi?", by Friends of De
mocracy, Inc., 103 Park Ave.
An introductory statement,
addressed to al] Americans,
says:
“This pamphlet uses Lind
bergh's own words to show that
he Gefends Nazi aggression
while attacking Britain; that he
believes in racism but not in
democracy; that he advocates a
‘negotiated peace’ with a man to
whom treaties are mere acraps
of paper; that he urges co-oper-
ation with the Nazis, although
Hitler boasts co-operation is im-
possible. Now that Lindbergh
has adopted Hitler's technique of
using anti-Semitism to further
his un-American crusade, his ad-
herence to the Nazi propaganda
line is complete.”
‘The Eeal Leader
Evidence is presented In the
pamphlet to support the asser-
tion that Lindbergh's speeches
are translated and reprinted for
distribytion by Hitler's agents
in all parts of the worid.
The pamphlet identifies Lind-
bergh as the real Jeader of the
America First Committee, and
isputes hig assertion that he
speaks for 80 per cent of the
American people, citing evidence
of two recent Gallup polls to re
fute the claim.
“On the basis of the evidence
presented in this pamphiet,” L.
M. Birkhead, national director of
Friends of Democracy, wrote to
Lindbergh, “we are forced to
believe that you accept Hitler's
‘New Order’ as the future pat-
tern of the world. Moreover,
the evidence indicates that you
are attempting to extend the
‘New Order’ to the U. 5.”
To convince the American |
people that he does not support
the Nazi doctrine the pamphlet .
suggests an eight-point program
for Lindbergh, including the fol .
lowing points: That he return -
his Nazi decoration to Hitler; ;
Tepudiate Nazism as forth ;
Sernitiam, and reaffirm his
