It is the duty of the American people, in keeping with their traditional belief, not only to protest but actively to oppose the “injustice and cruelty of the Hitler regime,” declared George Gordon Battle in a broadcast Friday night over radio station WEVD. Battle, a member of the board of directors of the Non-Sectarian Anti-Nazi League, discussed present conditions in Germany. The broadcast was sponsored by the League.

Outlining the acts of the Nazi regime by which “the civilized world has been shocked beyond expression,” Battle asserted that “the American people must and should impress upon the present German government, that the people of this country profoundly disapproves of what now is going in Germany.”
