Westbrook Pegler, in his syndicated column today, recalls Col. Charles Lindbergh’s and Henry Ford’s references to a “small minority” seeking to push the United States into war and criticizes them for not naming the minority.

Examining the various possible groups which he said Lindbergh and Ford might have in mind, Pegler points out that those Jews who are Communists oppose American rearming while Jewish capitalists “are in the same boat with other capitalists” and stand to lose by American participation in the war.
