In answer to Pelley&#39;s query, the "good tidings" leaped from mouth to mouthamon U. S. Nazis last week that "Lindbergh is our leader, our Man on Horse-back%" This strategy of lifting the ex-Colonel into the subversivist saddlediffers little from the procedure_employed when Fifth Columists placed theirhopes in Major General Smedley D.lButler -- and later in Major General Georgevan Horn5Moss1ey -- as strong man in the Nazi circus. The fruits of thesefirst at empts spelled failure. Butler refused to be bribed into the positionof a "patriotic traitor". When Moseley was ready to mount the charger, thebridle slipped because of his exposure at the hands of the Dies Committee.

In 1933, according to the testimony given by General Butl r before theMcCormack�Committee, several individuals, including G rald O-iMacGuire, em?

. played byEGrayson M. P.92Murphy and Company, and R? S.nClark, a banker, triedvainly toacreate a vast|Fascist movement of which Butler was to be the "Man onHorseback . Butler�: steadfast adherence to the principles of democracy, deéspite gobs of money offered by these agitators, was the answer to this attempted underhanded betrayal of the nation. Passages from the printed hearings ofthe Mccormack Committee, indicating the viciousness with which these plotters

. laid their plans, are reproduced on page 3.

Major General §.--;c, tipped his mitt five years later when, at]: NationalDefense meeting held at the Bellevue Stratford Hotel in Philadelphia, he de-clared, in part: - &#39; H

plans were&#39;launched to use she General, who had spoke. so approvingly of Na-Vtional Socialism and Fascism, as the nucleus around whom would rally all thevarious groups which were then operating independently of each other. Moseleyis powerful enough, it was argued, to force all the Jealous, little, would-bei�hrers to give up their own claims to leadership.

Blueprints were drawn up for the unification. Important personages, whosenames are well known in the United States, were to be pillars of the movement.Some were consulted, others were in complete ignorance or the plot. Congress-man Martin Dies himself was to be one of the mainstays, but when Dies demon-strated his disinclination to cooperate by having Moseley subpoenaed to appearbefore his Committee, Mrs. Leslie Fry, one of the originators of the plot,"spilled the beans" and revealed the entire scheme in the_July, 1959, issue ofthe "Christian Free Press", organ of the "Militant Christian Patriots".

Mrs. Fry&#39;s article, covering three and a half pages and captioned "SinisterFarce - The Hellish Conspiracy", gave all the details of the scheme. The mostimportant paragraphs, containing the names of the men who were to head themovement under Moseley&#39;s gensralship, are reproduced on page 2. The majorityof these names are known as those of well known Nazi agitators.

The Bundits, of course, fell in line with the campaign and circulated win-dow stickers illustration on page 2! advocating the election of Moseley to

the Presidency of the United States.- At the sage tigg, tags ziggatsogerlweog�iu�und Beobachter official organ of the Bund on ecem r , , E0 �re H

Almost two and a half years later, on May l, 1941 to be exact, thesDeut-Bohsr Weokruf und 5eobachter&#39;once again announced illustration on page 5!that a new "Man on Horseback" had arisen: Charles A. Lindbergh!

As though sensing with clairvoyant powers, a year previous on July l,1940!, Father Coughlin&#39;s "Social Justice" appeared on the stands with an ar-ticle illustration on page 3! in almost an exact parallel to the "Moseley forPresident" drive. This article urged the election of Charles A. Lindbergh asVice President, the Presidency being tendered to Wendell L. Wlllkis, who wasat that time still a question mark in the eyes of all Nazi sympathizers.

Los Angelce Bundits went even further. They wanted to see the flying Gol-onel ensconced in the White House. On September 10, 1940, a mass meeting il-lustration on page 5! was held at the Embassy Auditorium in Les Angeles, underthe auspices of the "True Americans", headed by Harold A. Sparling, subversiv-ist par excellence. In his speech, Sparling cried for the drafting of Lind-bergh for the!Ppesidency and Senator Burton K. Wheeler for the Vice-Presidency

As if to tie together attempts of former years and those of the present,Pelley, in his "Roll-Call" of April 14, 1941, namd Lindbergh with Berry Ford,Senator Wheeler and General Moseley as the new leaders of the nation illus-tration on page 5!, gathering together in a neat bundle the Four Horsemen ofthe present Apocalypse. U

The question today, in view of the endeavors being made to unite underLindbergh, resolves itself into whether Lindbergh will follow the honorableexample set by General Butler, or allow himself to become the F�hrer of thefoes of Democracy by following in the footsteps of General Moseley. Butlerrefused to be knighted a traitor; Moseley&#39;s actions speak for themselves.Does the Lone Eagle yearn to become a Pegasus?

Realizing thatsuch a movement demands an outstanding personalityat its head, these elements conducted a continuoussearch for one who could emerge as the "Man on&#39; Nazi agitators.

i�y Horseback".The nation-wide publicity, resulting from the Roosevelt-Lindbergh contro-

versy, has given new hope to Nazi sympathizers who are looking for a leader inoder to unify all subversive groups.

NRS herewith presents a factual report on happenings taking place at pres-ent in Los Angeles. Developments which are unfolding hourly in this localeare strikingly similar to incidents in other cities, according to reports re-ceived from several sources. An expose of activities in Los Angeles, there-fore, will serve as a blueprint of related operations in other parts of thecountry.

The Research Supplement accompanying this release gives background informa-tion and documentary evidence throwing into bold relief the parallelisms be-tween prosent movements and attempts made in years gone by to produce a "Manon Horseback".

On March l6, last, at the Los Angeles Embassy Auditorium, Verne Marshall,of the now defunct "No Foreign War Committee", addressed the "Save Anerica&#39;First� group, headed by T. W. Hughes, well known to HRS readers. Marshall�! raudience was largely composed of Nazi Bundits who were discouraged by vain ef-forts in the past and who felt that they were too small for the huge task theyhad set for themselves. Inherently, they knew that a large movement, embrac-ing all groups of a similar nature, was needed. 3

The "No Foreign War" leader&#39;s speech, one of many presented in the heat ofthe campaign to prevent passage of the Lend-Lease Bill, differed little fromother Marshall addresses delivered during the course of his cross-country tour.But there was one exception which aroused his audience of Nazi listeners fromlethargy. There was one remark, in fact a pronunciamento, which rekindled thedying flame of hope in the hearts of those who heard him say, in part:

We must continue our work. we must not be disheartened by apparent set-backS. we must stick together, égr a leader will arise at the o ortunetime, who will unitemall peoplewn o tninkjag you and"1;dp; who_8§a11 im-pose the wil1�q[_�ze people upon the Washington administration. &#39;

Investigation by HRS e£_&#39; _xd that this particular .it.,_!ment by Marshallwas uttered déliberately, .,llowing on the heels of a ieting held in secretrby subversive leaders in Southern Gm.ifornia. These militant generals haveremained very much in the background, and their names are unknown to the largemasses of super-patriots who, knowingly or unknowingly, follow the bandwagonof subversivism. =

While these hangers-on were kept in ignorance, it was openly avowed at thissecret session that "Colonel Lindbergh will be our Man on Horseback". When thecontroversy between President Roosevelt and Colonel Lindbergh hit the frontpages and the air lanes, these behind-the-scene wire-pullers deemed the timeripe to inform the masses of their decision as to the new "Man on Horseback".

At a meeting similar in background and audience to that addressed by Mar-shall, the stage was dramatically set for this important revelation. On Sun-day, May 4, Ellis 0. Jones, who frequently acts as chairma at meetings of theHughes followers, announced the formation of the "National Copperhead Associa-tion", whose purpose it would be to line up behind the leadership of the nowex-Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh. This news was received with exultation andunanimous approval by the 1200 Nazisconclaves weekly.

There is also a vest shortewe of instructors in the regular and reserveirmy for issiQnment to e vast citiseas reserve, such as is contemplatedby the compulsory traininn advocates. -»

Congress should remrin in session all the rest of the year so that theseshortezes and lack of preparedness can he net with s comprehensive plan.They should also rennin in session to put e check on the urse for powerand gore power that the Chief ?xecutive has slrays had--but never suiteexhibited it so plsinly as he has within the lest few days.

The following infonnation was received stthe Bureau from an outside unknowm source. 1

&#39;1he alleged knees" campaign Ihich� had beenreceiving wide publicity virtually disintegrated thefirst week of Janus.-:7 when Veme Marshall, leader ofthe Ho Foreign �Far Committee, revealed that his organ-isation was linked directly to Hermann Goering, /�second in colnnand oi"�che German govermnent.

Lt the same time he refused to express spreference for a British victory over Germany statingthat the terms which is colleague and financialbacker William Rhodes§Davis&#39;,/ an official Nazi agentin the western hemisphere, had secured for the UnitedStates from Herr Goering were fair bases for e nego-tiated peace.

None of Marshall&#39;s supporters have repudiatedhim although many among them are closely identifiedwith Socialist Party official peace fronts. Linked.directly the No/Foreign War Connrrittee is SenatorBurton Kxlheeler, who has not only given the com-mittee moral support but early th� fallicooperatodwith Marshall&#39;s lieutenant, 0.

was one of the moving spirits and financial backersof the No Foreign Wars Committee, Hr. Marshall�:

- statement showed that his group was the result ofnegotiations conducted during the Republican nomi-nating convention among� members oi� the GOP-Ford-Hoover-section of the isolationist bloc. The Com-

mittee was first thought of by Hr. Marshall, who was
