Postcards urging Americans to “free America from the Jews” and calling on all patriots to “vote anti-Jewish,” have been received in Chicago in the mails, the Jewish Sentinel reported here.

The cards were postmarked in Atlanta, Ga., and were mailed by an organization describing itself as the “Christian Anti-Jewish Party.” They carry a bid to “white Christian Americans” to join “our partriotic party” and give P. O. box addresses in Atlanta and Birmingham, Ala., for membership inquiries.

The party’s program, according to the card, calls for the expulsion of the Jews to Palestine and the confiscation of their property. The card promises that “the Jews have too much money, but soon, it will be ours!”
