losing money on the books and pamphlets, many of them flagrantly anti-Semitic, which he sends out by express to avoid possible investigation by the United States Post Office authorities.

He indicated he is slowly becoming convinced that the “Protocols of the Elders of Zion,” one of the books he sells, is spurious in origin. Despite this fact, he admitted, he continues to peddle it.

HEALEY’S RECORD BARED

Prior to Snow’s appearance, the criminal record of Raymond Joseph Healey, juvenile editor and publisher of Healey’s Irish Weekly, was spread before an open hearing attended by an unruly mob of about 150 of the youth’s sympathizers, most of them members of the Friends of New Germany.

The boy came garbed in a uniform consisting of black riding trousers and boots, a Sam Browne belt and a green shirt with a red, white and blue ribbon on one shoulder and a swastika on its chest.

Testimony given under oath revealed that his father had died in jail and that his brother is now serving a penal term. Both were convicted of burglary charges, The Bulletin learned.

Young Healey himself has been arrested numerous times, it was disclosed at the hearing, during which four such cases were read into the record.

ARRESTED ON RIOT CHARGE

William F. Fallece, New York detective, told of two arrests in 1932, one of which was for attempted felonious assault. This charge later was changed to disorderly conduct, Fallece said, and although Healey was convicted he received a suspended sentence.

It was further brought out that last July the boy was dismissed from Fort Wright, a Civilian Conservation Corps camp near Thomaston, Conn., after he had been found distributing Communist literature. Accused by police of sedition, he was discharged.

A month later he was arrested in Camden, N. J., for exciting a riot. Here he gave Khaki Shirt headquarters in that city as his address. Again he received a suspended sentence although found guilty.

WANTS DICTATORSHIP

Asked what government he favors for this country, the boy replied:

“I believe in a Fascist Gentile government, free of international bankers and the Jewish minority.”

He plans to organize an “American National Socialist workers’ body,” he said.

Questioned as to who will bring about a “Fascist Gentile government” in the United States, he retorted:

“We.”

“Who?” Dickstein persisted.

“The people right here!” the boy answered, pointing to members of the Friends of New Germany jammed into the room.

“FRIENDS” HEIL BOY’S WORDS

At this point a number of these men and women raised their hands in the Hitler salute and echoed the boy with cries of “We! We! We! We!”

Dickstein asked for a show of hands by those persons in the audience who belonged to the Friends. Many responded. Dickstein singled out two and asked their names, which they gave. He asked one whether he was an American citizen, and the man replied in the negative.

The boy was asked to tell what he did in 1932.

“I was a leader of the Red Builders,” he replied. “I was an organizer of the Red Builders in Los Angeles.”

DISGRACE TO U. S.

Dickstein asked him why he had come to the hearing in uniform.

“My men’ll be in uniform,” the boy answered. “They’ll be here—in New York City.”

“You’re a disgrace to America,” the Congressman said at this point. “You’re a criminal of the worst type.”

At last Friday’s hearing Dickstein had instructed Healey to bring all bills, books and papers connected with his publication.

“I have no books and papers,” the boy said yesterday. “These bills (referring to printing vouchers) disappeared, but all documents I destroyed.”

“You do not typify the Irish race,” Dickstein declared. “Get out of here.”
