The formation of a new anti-Jewish group was announced here today by Lincoln Rockwell, notorious anti-Semitic agitator who has been involved in anti-Jewish picketing of the White House. The new group is designated in material disseminated here as the “American Party, World Union of Free Enterprise National Socialists. ” Rockwell proclaimed himself as the “commander” of the new organization.
Elaborately-printed material distributed by Rockwell at various points in Washington displays swastikas and lauds Hitler openly. The announced program of Rockwell’s group says: “Our purpose is to be nothing less than a world-wide effort to free humanity from Jewish domination. “
The program includes the intention to conduct “a scientific study to determine if the Jewish virus is a matter of environment and can be eliminated by education and training, or if some other method must be developed to render Jews harmless to society. ” It also announces that the group will “establish an international treason tribunal to investigate, try, and publicly hang, in front of the Capitol, all non-Jews who are convicted of acting consciously as fronts for Jewish treason. ” The Rockwelites also promised to “cancel all debts owed to Jews by non-Jews, where there is evidence of unfair or immoral business methods or conspiracy “
