On February 3, 1941, William Dudley Pelley, in his publicatibn, "Roll-
Ca11', asked: p pg My _pg_ WM, pg__m_g"_

In answer to Pelley's query, the "good tidings" leaped from mouth to mouth
amon U. S. Nazis last week that "Lindbergh is our leader, our Man on Horse-back%" This strategy of lifting the ex-Colonel into the subversivist saddle
differs little from the procedure_employed when Fifth Columists placed theirhopes in Major General Smedley D.lButler -- and later in Major General Georgevan Horn5Moss1ey -- as strong man in the Nazi circus. The fruits of these
first at empts spelled failure. Butler refused to be bribed into the position
of a "patriotic traitor". When Moseley was ready to mount the charger, the
bridle slipped because of his exposure at the hands of the Dies Committee.
In 1933, according to the testimony given by General Butl r before theMcCormackCommittee, several individuals, including G rald O-iMacGuire, em?. played byEGrayson M. P.92Murphy and Company, and R? S.nClark, a banker, triedvainly toacreate a vast|Fascist movement of which Butler was to be the "Man on
Horseback . Butler: steadfast adherence to the principles of democracy, deé
spite gobs of money offered by these agitators, was the answer to this attempt
ed underhanded betrayal of the nation. Passages from the printed hearings of
the Mccormack Committee, indicating the viciousness with which these plotters
. laid their plans, are reproduced on page 3.
Major General §.--;c, tipped his mitt five years later when, at]: NationalDefense meeting held at the Bellevue Stratford Hotel in Philadelphia, he de-
clared, in part: - ' H

BARUCPPS WARNINGS OF WAR AS A ClTHE HELLlSH CONSPIRACY; W,
P886 49 [UOTl'li1l'1l.1B I'IOl'I'l{<"'.' $0 J.!s f '1This was the clue for 1Lch Nazi sympathisere wer- lmoking. Immediately,
plans were'launched to use she General, who had spoke. so approvingly of Na-
Vtional Socialism and Fascism, as the nucleus around whom would rally all the
various groups which were then operating independently of each other. Moseley
is powerful enough, it was argued, to force all the Jealous, little, would-be
ihrers to give up their own claims to leadership.
Blueprints were drawn up for the unification. Important personages, whose
names are well known in the United States, were to be pillars of the movement.
Some were consulted, others were in complete ignorance or the plot. Congress-
man Martin Dies himself was to be one of the mainstays, but when Dies demon-
strated his disinclination to cooperate by having Moseley subpoenaed to appear
before his Committee, Mrs. Leslie Fry, one of the originators of the plot,
"spilled the beans" and revealed the entire scheme in the_July, 1959, issue of
the "Christian Free Press", organ of the "Militant Christian Patriots".
Mrs. Fry's article, covering three and a half pages and captioned "Sinister
Farce - The Hellish Conspiracy", gave all the details of the scheme. The most
important paragraphs, containing the names of the men who were to head the
movement under Moseley's gensralship, are reproduced on page 2. The majority
of these names are known as those of well known Nazi agitators.
The Bundits, of course, fell in line with the campaign and circulated win-
dow stickers illustration on page 2! advocating the election of Moseley tothe Presidency of the United States.- At the sage tigg, tags ziggatsogerlweogiuund Beobachter official organ of the Bund on ecem r , , E0 re Ha leading front-page story that Moseleyngas TH? sh pf the h§ur,M¢;Pt1°n1n8the article illustration on page 2 : enera ose ey vs. ar a ers -

Almost two and a half years later, on May l, 1941 to be exact, thesDeut-
Bohsr Weokruf und 5eobachter'once again announced illustration on page 5!
that a new "Man on Horseback" had arisen: Charles A. Lindbergh!
As though sensing with clairvoyant powers, a year previous on July l,
1940!, Father Coughlin's "Social Justice" appeared on the stands with an ar-
ticle illustration on page 3! in almost an exact parallel to the "Moseley for
President" drive. This article urged the election of Charles A. Lindbergh as
Vice President, the Presidency being tendered to Wendell L. Wlllkis, who was
at that time still a question mark in the eyes of all Nazi sympathizers.
Los Angelce Bundits went even further. They wanted to see the flying Gol-
onel ensconced in the White House. On September 10, 1940, a mass meeting il-
lustration on page 5! was held at the Embassy Auditorium in Les Angeles, under
the auspices of the "True Americans", headed by Harold A. Sparling, subversiv-
ist par excellence. In his speech, Sparling cried for the drafting of Lind-bergh for the!Ppesidency and Senator Burton K. Wheeler for the Vice-Presidency
As if to tie together attempts of former years and those of the present,Pelley, in his "Roll-Call" of April 14, 1941, namd Lindbergh with Berry Ford,
Senator Wheeler and General Moseley as the new leaders of the nation illus-
tration on page 5!, gathering together in a neat bundle the Four Horsemen of
the present Apocalypse. U
The question today, in view of the endeavors being made to unite under
Lindbergh, resolves itself into whether Lindbergh will follow the honorable
example set by General Butler, or allow himself to become the Fhrer of the
foes of Democracy by following in the footsteps of General Moseley. Butler
refused to be knighted a traitor; Moseley's actions speak for themselves.
Does the Lone Eagle yearn to become a Pegasus?

Hl".AD by well knownI'M Aforeign born, have tried for manyayan:s>tb find a
basis upon which all subversive groups in this
country could be brought together. Realizing that
such a movement demands an outstanding personality
at its head, these elements conducted a continuous
search for one who could emerge as the "Man on' Nazi agitators.iy Horseback".
The nation-wide publicity, resulting from the Roosevelt-Lindbergh contro-
versy, has given new hope to Nazi sympathizers who are looking for a leader in
oder to unify all subversive groups.
NRS herewith presents a factual report on happenings taking place at pres-
ent in Los Angeles. Developments which are unfolding hourly in this locale
are strikingly similar to incidents in other cities, according to reports re-
ceived from several sources. An expose of activities in Los Angeles, there-
fore, will serve as a blueprint of related operations in other parts of the
country.
The Research Supplement accompanying this release gives background informa-
tion and documentary evidence throwing into bold relief the parallelisms be-
tween prosent movements and attempts made in years gone by to produce a "Man
on Horseback".
On March l6, last, at the Los Angeles Embassy Auditorium, Verne Marshall,
of the now defunct "No Foreign War Committee", addressed the "Save Anerica'
First group, headed by T. W. Hughes, well known to HRS readers. Marshall! r
audience was largely composed of Nazi Bundits who were discouraged by vain ef-
forts in the past and who felt that they were too small for the huge task they
had set for themselves. Inherently, they knew that a large movement, embrac-ing all groups of a similar nature, was needed. 3
The "No Foreign War" leader's speech, one of many presented in the heat of
the campaign to prevent passage of the Lend-Lease Bill, differed little from
other Marshall addresses delivered during the course of his cross-country tour.
But there was one exception which aroused his audience of Nazi listeners from
lethargy. There was one remark, in fact a pronunciamento, which rekindled the
dying flame of hope in the hearts of those who heard him say, in part:
We must continue our work. we must not be disheartened by apparent set-backS. we must stick together, égr a leader will arise at the o ortunetime, who will unitemall peoplewn o tninkjag you and"1;dp; who_8§a11 im-pose the wil1q[_ze people upon the Washington administration. '

Page 2., '".-.evInvestigation by HRS e£_' _xd that this particular .it.,_!ment by Marshall
was uttered déliberately, .,llowing on the heels of a ieting held in secretr
by subversive leaders in Southern Gm.ifornia. These militant generals have
remained very much in the background, and their names are unknown to the large
masses of super-patriots who, knowingly or unknowingly, follow the bandwagon
of subversivism. =
While these hangers-on were kept in ignorance, it was openly avowed at this
secret session that "Colonel Lindbergh will be our Man on Horseback". When the
controversy between President Roosevelt and Colonel Lindbergh hit the front
pages and the air lanes, these behind-the-scene wire-pullers deemed the timeripe to inform the masses of their decision as to the new "Man on Horseback".
At a meeting similar in background and audience to that addressed by Mar-
shall, the stage was dramatically set for this important revelation. On Sun-
day, May 4, Ellis 0. Jones, who frequently acts as chairma at meetings of the
Hughes followers, announced the formation of the "National Copperhead Associa-
tion", whose purpose it would be to line up behind the leadership of the now
ex-Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh. This news was received with exultation and
unanimous approval by the 1200 Nazis
conclaves weekly.and Nazi sympathizers who attend these

Every evening during the past week, the German propaganda fi1n%.B1ttIBPi99

referred to by Hughes wh woe the main speaker of the evening. Specihl emw
phasis was laid on Lindbergh's statement, "I do not know how much longbr free
speech will be allowed in this country", implying that soon meetings such as

The following infonnation was received st
the Bureau from an outside unknowm source. 1
'1he alleged knees" campaign Ihich had been
receiving wide publicity virtually disintegrated the
first week of Janus.-:7 when Veme Marshall, leader of
the Ho Foreign Far Committee, revealed that his organ-
isation was linked directly to Hermann Goering, /
second in colnnand oi"che German govermnent.
Lt the same time he refused to express s
preference for a British victory over Germany stating
that the terms which is colleague and financialbacker William Rhodes§Davis',/ an official Nazi agent
in the western hemisphere, had secured for the United
States from Herr Goering were fair bases for e nego-
tiated peace.
None of Marshall's supporters have repudiated
him although many among them are closely identified
with Socialist Party official peace fronts. Linked.
directly the No/Foreign War Connrrittee is SenatorBurton Kxlheeler, who has not only given the com-mittee moral support but early th fallicooperatodwith Marshall's lieutenant, 0. K. rmstrong,/Eember
pi the Foreign Relations Committee of the American
Lbglbnii/Eh. Armstrong is a charter menber of the

fhe HLCA operated a clubhouse located at Back River,
Virginia, on property leased by officials of the IAC1 fro: Effie
Decker of Hampton, Virginia, the lease having been executed on
Jilly 29, 1932, by George I. Levis, John F. Victory, Henry I. E.
Reid and E. H. Cheaberlin as lessees. The RICA had previously
leased this same property from the some lessor. This clubhouse
val the subject of the present investigation. The evidence eecured
in the case discloeed that Government owned material and Government
labor had been used in iaproving, enlarging and eaintaining thia
clubhouse. Donations of money and eqniplaent were also made by
IQCI. employees, and emplqreee had on occaaiona Iorked on their '
own time at the clubhouse in keeping it in repair. The IHCA main-
tained an entertainment fund to which the eaployeea subscribed,
and the money actually paid for the annual rental of the grounds
upon which the clubhouse was aituated came from the entertainment
fund.
The purposes of the H101 cup as expressed in a memorandum
dated 301,7 28, 1923, to the HACL Committee on Personnel, Buildingl
and Equipment were, first, "to provide an inducement for governmental
-official: to visit the Laboratories of the Committee and become
familiar with the work of the Committee; second, to promote the

pointing out that Lengley Field was in e relatively leolated I
location, end ejaportunitiee for um:-enent were 1-ether Belted
ln that loceli. Dr. Lclil, in diecnleing the purposes of the
cup with the investigating lgente, eteted affirmatively that
one of the purpose: of the camp was to provide en inducement
for Oonaroesnen, particularly nenbere of the Appropriation
Committee, to go to Langley Field to that they night observe
gork which Ia: being done her the Laboratory. These official!
advised the inveetigeting Lgente that the I181 was anxious, 'of
course, to eecm-e the services of young college graduates in their
research activities, and that, consequently, they mat compete
with enployere offering lore inviting Iurroundinga than thoee of
the ILC1 Research Laboratories, and thet consequently the club-
house was considered desirable and even neccssezy to place the
RAC1 in e more advantageous poaition in dealing with its employees.
The clubhouse vse structure of about 60* in length by
25' in width, equipped with a large screen enclosed porch, which
eae need for sleeping quarters, and In otherwise equipped as e

the radio the reasons for his defeat as being newspaper opposition, professional
politicians of the Republican Party and New Deal politicians encouraging the
Republican Party to nominate the Republican Candidate who would be not easily
defeated by the Democrats. In his speech SMITH addressed the successful
Republican Nominee Judge H0!-LEE FERGUSON and criticised him for having not
discussed the real issues of the campaigns. SMITH said that the Republicans
will want to know how you stand on WENDELL 92¥ILKl'.E's Poet-War Plan
