Samuel Untermyer, president of the Non-Sectarian Anti-Nazi League, and Congressman Samuel Dickstein should consider carefully whether they are not furthering world-recognition of the fact that Jewish machinations are inciting the nations one against the other, the Luegenabwehr, a Nazi organ, declared in an editorial attack upon the two American Jewish personalities.
Characterizing Untermyer and Dickstein as “Hetzjuden” (Jewish agitators), the newspaper alleges that the former’s organization is spreading false news of the anti-Jewish boycott in order to influence the Zionist Actions Committee, which plans to meet in Jerusalem soon, to proclaim a worldwide boycott of Germany.
As a matter of fact, the newspaper declares, the anti-Jewish boycott has been forbidden by responsible leaders.
