...Cross and the Flag," is personally published by Gerald L.K. Smith in Detroit. In a recent issue, Smith commented: "We have known for some time that the so called Conference of Christians and Jews was a program of fakery, hypocrisy ...set up to deceive mislead, and exploit a bunch of simpletons...."

Built in 1759 by a young Royalist, the house was confiscated by the American government fifteen years later, when the owner, after a life of unhappy splendor, fled to the besieged British in Boston.

...history one of its heroes: the man who shot Benito Mussolini. The tyrannicide turned out to be a tall (6 ft.), sallow, jowly bookkeeper called Walter Audisio.
