and they have fitted the world situation up to this time. They
fit it now."

When Ford was on the witness stand in a libel suit some fifteen years
ago and admitted his ignorance of matters with which even grammar
school children are familiar, the country laughed. His ignorance,
however, is his own affair, but when he takes no step to curb his
personal representative from working with secret foreign agents to
undermine a friendly government, it becomes a matter, it appears to
me, of importance to the people of this country and the Government of
the United States.

the growing list of anti-democratic propagandists. Some of them are

With no visible means of support, he received expenses from a total
stranger--oddly enough, Count von Buelow whose home overlooked the
naval base in San Diego and who was constantly in conferences with
Nazi agents. It was to Count von Buelow, you recall, that Hermann
Schwinn brought Schneeberger as soon as he arrived on his way to
Japan, and von Buelow took him around while Schneeberger photographed
areas in the military and naval zone. A number of very secret
conferences were held while Schneeberger was on the West Coast, i
