Mr. Charles P. Wolfram, the National Secretary of the Steuben Society, the most important organisation of German Americans, denounced Hitler and Hitlerism in very strong terms in speaking yesterday at a meeting held in Cleveland under the auspices of the P’nai B’rith.
A new National Socialist Organisation named the Swastika League was formed last week in New York by a fusion of two Nazi organisations which had previously drawn their membership from among the German Americans.
The League started on April 1st., the publication of an organ known as the “American Observer”, containing antisemitic propaganda in both the German and English languages.
Herr Luedeke, who has been responsible for the organisation of Nazi groups in other parts of the country, is the leader of the Swastika League.
