tion is the propagation of anti-Semitism.
The same word*, the same slogans, the
same methods followed in Germany are
duplicated in America. The spurious
protocols of the “Elders of Zion” are
widely quoted. Henry Ford’s name is re
peatedly mentioned with great approval.
The necessity for taking counter-action
against Jews for the boycott of German
products is heavily stressed. All mem
bers of the "Friends of New Germany"
are required to act as spies in their places
of business, to discover the names of peo
ple who boycott German products, and
to turn in these names to the headquar
ters of the organization. Lists of such boy
cotting businesses and individuals are
carefully compiled, strict orders are is
sued to members and their friends not
to purchase from such persons. An effect
ive system of espionage is conducted in
coffee-houses and in beer-gardens. Ger
mans enter beer-gardens, create a spirit of
comaraderie over a glass of beer for the
specific purpose of finding out their at
titude towards Hitler and his tactics. The
names of people who are critical of Hit
ler are turned over to headquarters and,
in turn, sent to Germany, so that retalia
tory measures may be taken against any
and such relatives as remain in Germany.
Spies are circulated among German ref
ugees in New York for the purpose of
discovering their attitude towards Hiller
with a view of reporting their names to
Germany so that retaliatory measures
may be taken against their remaining
relatives there.
The organization also works closely
with German tourist headquarters here in
an effort to divert as much tourist traffic
into Germany.
An important task which it has set
itself is the counter-action of any anti
fascist movement on the part of working
groups, and ihe formation of Nazi cells
in shops and in factories where Germans
are employed, as well as anti-Semitic agi
tation there.
One of the leaders of the “Friends of
New Germany” is an official of the North
German Lloyd, A. Mentzing. Mr. Ment-
zing is responsible for creating the first
Nazi shop organization in America in
his own office, patterned after the Ger
man model. It is alleged that most of
the employees of the North CJerman Lloyd
are actively associated with the N, 12 j 0f .
ganization.
Membership in the “Friends of New
Germany” requires the payment of month-
ly dues and regular subscriptions f 0 .
propaganda purposes. Most of the propj.
ganda material, however, comes lirect;,
from Germany. The work of distributing
this material is well organized (>,"
group, for example, is entrusted witk
placing this literature in books in public
libraries; another in the mail-lx.xe* 0 f
apartment houses. They have even hew
brozen enough to distribute vicious and*
libellous products of the Fichte Bund io
the subways, either by placing leaflet* on
the seats or by handing them directly to
passengers. ITie Fichte Bund leaflet*
printed in English and German, and a
series of letters reviling the Jew*, have
been distributed in private offices as well
While the organization itself contin
ually emphasizes that it has little fund*
at its disposal, this is far from repre
senting the actual state of affairs, and
apparently it has had sufficient funds to
perfect a network in many parts of the
country. Speakers, whose expense* are
paid by it, are sent to the most rrm<»r
places to deliver addresses. Nor do the
leaders of the organization show any evi-
dence of financial straits. Some of them
have quite recently moved into larger
apartments and, in general, are *ur
rounded by an aura of prosperity.
In addition to the “Friends of Nc»
Germany,” there are other organization*
which spread Nazi propaganda. One of
these is the “Kultur Bund,” founded by
and catering to the wealthier element*
among the Germans in America. TV
larger German merchants are approached
for a donation. The leader of this group
is one Kurt Spanknoevel, whose headquar
ters are located in the George Washing
ton Hotel, at 23rd Street and Lexington
Avenue, New York. Mr. Spanknoevel
was formerly the organizer of the De
troit Nazi group. He is often to bf
seen in first-class hotels and in speak
easics where he seeks to recruit member*
for his organization and to spread propa
ganda of a Nazi character.
Another important leader in this or
ganization is one, George Schellenber*.
allegedly an executive of a large depart
ment store in New York City. He i' re
garded as a prototype of a Prussian of
ficer and continually emphasizes his ini
portance as an anti-bolshevist leader, lb'
assistant is an employe of the New ^
Staatszeitung, one N. Orgell, who i«
known to have incited considerable anti
Semitic feeling among his fellow-employe'
For the purpose of propaganda' 1 ''-
among Americans, an American \ersu" 1
of the “Friends of New Ciermany’ ba*
been established. This new body is known
as the “Friends of Germany,” founded
and under the leadership of Col. Edwin
Emerson. This group has its headq" 3r
ters in the same building as the Ci m' 30
Consulate, at 17 Battery Place. Co 1 Em
erson is the official notary public f
German Consulate, which sends ' m0 '
every one desiring an affidavit to M* of
fice. Col. Emerson is used as a •> ak f ‘
on such occasions when it is not c '» rfJ
to reveal the official connection b< Aftl
the German National Socialist part* a*
the American branches. He is u uU ''
sent as the speaker for German-Da F r
grams, and to address Rotary a"
wanis Clubs. This group has a sp< "
bureau which functions largely in -
ing anti-Semitic propaganda.
Col. Emerson himself is a former
paper correspondent and served
