THE FOLLOWING EDITORIAL APPEARED IN THE SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 16TH: The demand on General Robert E. Wood, the Chicego mail order negnete who hetds the America First Committee thet the com- mittee ropudiote Charlss Ri Lindbergh for His Hitlerisn ettack on the Jews, knocksct the wrong door. It is the America Pirst Committee thet should be repudiated. The American people should do thet omphaticclly and completely. Lindbargh's attsck wos vicious but the cormittes is the primary offender, with Lindbergh only e tcol for its purpceses. We do net doubt that the running the Americe First subver- sive propaganda machine kr what Lindbergh was going to say before Lindbergh knew it himself. The Lindbergh attack was en America First triel bellcon mere than a personal stip by Lindbergh. Sooner or inter this pot Fescist prejuaice hed to be sot in operation. Lirdberch tested the wind end drew tho fire. In this capacity he wes risked ss & sacrifice, perhaps not © very vital one with his elroedy tarnished hero's crown. To propose thet the cormittes repudiate its messenger for the messege he cerried is to ask repudiction of a eardinal point in the program of Fescisr: thet is being so assiduously pursued. Hitler has forced it on France, imposed it on Italy, where Jevis are so nerged they sre clzest indistingui ble. It is proclaimed even in Jopen, where thers cre no Jews. Prejudice end disunity sre essentisl tc © Fascist putsch. It is not necesscry thet the promcters should wish to beeone vassels of Hitler on the contrary. We do not doubt thet in the countries split end taken by Hitler the dorestic Nezis hoped rather te teke over es big shots in their own rite, we would not question that Mussolini heted Hitler fro:: the stert. Ho certainly never showed any Signs of wanting to be chained to the charict wheol where he new finds hinsolf. Generel Wood, Senator Wheeler, Senater Nye, Lindborgh - ell the way dow the Anorics Pirst list of leaders and stocges - cen cleim sincerity. We do not challenge their sincority. But sincerity tc what? Does anyone question that Hitler is sincerely sold on the idea that the worlds neck should be under his hoel. Fascists in dmerice and elsewhere ney sincerely detest Hitler but they hate s ing olse worse. They do not all necessarily hate things. They hate the British, thoy hate Roosevelt, Cepitel, Leber. Thoy hate some of these or other things more then they detest Hitler. Their hate seng them the poth that inevitably leads to Hitler. D4, 3L9 b 97) Kea ALL INFORMATION CONTAINED De Aye mE/I6 A
