Colorful Cast. The accused were a strangely assorted crew. Handsome Joe McWilliams, the soapbox fiührer who used to berate the Jews and laud Hitler on Manhattan street corners, got top billing in the indictment ("United States of America v. Joseph E. McWilliams, et al"). Quiet, swart Lawrence Dennis, U.S. fascism's No. 1 intellectual, sat glumly near benign-faced James True, organizer of America First, Inc., and inventor of the "kike-killer" (Pat. no. 2,026,077), a short rounded club made in two sizes (one for ladies).

Full military occupation would be necessary, and a more tractable government; henceforth, too, more Hungarian workers for German...
...that horse-loving Horthy got his admiral's stripes. It was from the hands of this onetime fellow subject of Kaiser Franz Josef that Horthy got the territorial plums which had made World War II so far so profitable. As he listened now to the Führer's rasping voice, Horthy knew a dream was ended. He shook his head. Hitler pounded the big table. Enraged, Horthy pounded right back, as he had in years gone by, when Upstart Hitler had wanted concessions from Hungary's proud Magyars...
