brought about. not even \ Henry
Ford would have dared to publish

upon the so-cslled protocols. for

that none save Henry Ford could be

there were as many Gentiles killed
by 0entiles ~ there are Jews in the
world. 1t was q great victory for
Israel In truth. 100000 Jews and
more have been killed by war or
through the Aftermath OF war within
the last six years. Hundreds of thou
sands Of Jews were slain In the Rus
sian army. Jews infinitely more loyal
to Russia than the Romanoffx One
hundred thousand Jews have been
fbutchered by the Fords Of tho
Ukraine within two years. Ford is
dastardly enough to point out that
few Jews could have died in battle
in any army for only crosses are to
be seen in the war cemeteries OF
Europe, and this defamation OF our
honored. hallowed dead In every war
cemetery comes with poor grace In

skulking Edsal.
