Adolph Hitler’s leading organ, the “Voelkischer Beobachter,” takes up the cry of the Women’s Patriot Corporation of America against Professor Albert Einstein as a Communist and therefore ineligible for admission to the United States.
“We congratulate the American patriotic women for demanding Einstein’s exclusion,” declares the paper. “We hope they succeed, though we do not want to keep the Jewish Bolshevist, Einstein, in Germany.”
