 vs. THE 9TH COLUMN
 Way back in 1888 we broke the newH that Fritz Kuhn was the se- cret agent for Hitler. Later we fought him and all the Bund's acc tivitieS, trying to awaken America to the danger they represented. Kuhn was sent to jail as 8 petty thief, the Bund is now being crush- pd and It's dangerous espionage acc kvtties are being made public. Hooking under his bed for Nasis, thO
 We called the attention of the American people to the shameful fact that a Congressman was using his position to spread NaN hatred end swaStika propaganda, by insert eRlg the stuff in the Congressional Record and tllen distributing it un- der his frank. That Congressman went on the ar to deny our charges and called us ali kinds of names in Congress The Federal Grand Jury also confirmed that after this man was thrown out of Congress by vot- ers-Ex-C Congressman Jake Thorkel- son. !.

 The great barrage of slander and threats came when we exposed vari- OtiS women's organizations - which were either dupes for Nazis or knew that they were spreading swastika blah. One of the loudest fist- shakers and leader of such groups was Lizzie Dilling :. They threat ened to boycott us and tried to have us taken of the air, or gag us in other ways. But when Laura h. gals was convicted of not register ing as a paid Nazi agent, it was re- vealed that she worked for and made speeches for many of the outfits we put in the slnelight. At Dizzie Dillin's recent trial-farce for divorce -her connections with the swasti- kow-towers were echoed. She is also being investigated by those who are probing the activities of Nazi agents :. Most of these women's groups were broken up by the power of publicity. Only 8 few intellectual ones still remain. (Hysterical alarn1ist and flagwaverD
 The American Fellowship Forum, headed by Dr. Friedrich Auhagen, was another placed before the pulp lie via this typewriter and micro phone. His connections with Nazi supporters and his swastika propa- ganda became one of our favorite targets. .Auhagen denied all the charges-but is now in the hoose- gow because he failed to register as a Nazi propaganda agent. :.

 H was just a three line item here which first revealed that a publish ing company in New Jersey named Flanders Hall was backed by Nazi agent George Sylvester viereck. The firm claimed to be a 100% Amer ican. We also reported that this company published book by Cong. at-large Stephen A. Day .SubSe- quont Investigations by the Federal Grand Jury proved the Nazi char acter of Flanders Hall, and George Sylvester Viereck was tried for not revealing his connection with the company. Viereck is now in jail, and Flanders Hall is just a mem- ory. (You warmonger. youD
 Before he died, the activities of Sen. Lundeen were blended under the spotlight treatment. His rela- tions with Nazi agents, the fact that he made speeches before Nazi groups and allowed Nad agents to write and distribute his speeches under his Congressional frank - were advertised here. Because of that terrific campaign of vilifica- tion was launched against this re- porter. Every trick in the propa- ganda trade was used in an effort to slander us. A few months ago the Federal Grand Jury in Wash ington confirmed everything we said about Lundeen. (Smear artist and unetficalD
