Three anti-Semitic propagandists are still at large of the 28 persons indicted here a month ago for sedition, according to a report received today by Attorney General Francis Biddle. They are H. Victor Broenstrupp, William R. Lyman Jr., and Edward James Smytho.
Broenstrupp was a lawyer for William Dudley Pelley, who was recently sentenced to 15 years in federal prison on another sedition charge at Indianapolis, and who has pleaded not guilty to this one. Lyman headed the National Workers League in Detroit and once declared himself in favor of hanging all the Jews in the United States. Smythe was the leader of the Protestant War Veterans, an anti-Catholic as well as an anti-Semitic organization.
