An attack on the United States for accepting German emigrants rather than German products was made by Chancellor Adolf Hitler in a May Day address today, according to reports by the United Press and the Associated Press.
In the U.P. version, the Fuehrer is quoted as stating: “I know those who are against me. I know them from the days before I came to power. Enemies of National Socialism are agitating abroad against the Reich today, organizing and poisoning its international relations. Other countries would have done better to import German goods rather than import our inferior elements represented by these agitators.”
The A.P. dispatch quoted Hitler as follows: “The United States has organized a boycott against German goods. It would have been better to import German goods than German emigrants.”
