BOYCOTT COUNCIL CHARGES
GERMANY RECEIVING
MILLIONS IN U. S.
WAR MATERIALS
New York—The existence of a
huge smuggling and commercial
spy system in this country for the
shipment of U. S. war materials to
Germany was charged today in
a statement issued by Dr. Joseph
Tenenbaum, chairman of the Joint
Boycott Council of the American
Jewish Congress and Jewish
Labor Committee.
“Investigations undertaken by
the Joint Boycott Council for the
last several months reveal the ex-
istence of an intricate organiza-
tion of the most daring smugglers
who have connections and rami-
fications with some of the bona-
tir'e commercial houses in this
country and which are responsible
for shipments running as high as
$10,000,000 worth of war materials
a month destined for Nazi Ger-
many,” Dr. Tenenbaum asserted.
* The official figure given out
by the U. S. Bureau of Foreign
and Domestic Commerce of some
$153,000 shipped to Germany in
seven months, show how the
illicit commercial traffic to and
from Germany through camou-
flage and reshipment from and
through Cuba, Mexico, South
America and Japan has made all
supervision by custom officials
illusory. In addition, Germany
receives millions of dollars worth
of U. S. war materials through
benevolent neutrals and semi-
belligerents.”

What Is The Fifth Column?
No statement could be more misleading writes Werner Guttmann
in the October Survey Graphic (out Sept. 30) than that which holds
there is nothing new in the weapon of the Nazi Fifth Column—that
it is on the level with the espionage and sabotage of von Papen and
Capt. Boy-Ed.
“The tasks for which other intelligence services have to send
out a handful of daring men who
often work with adventures or
other unreliable elements are
performed today on a mass scale
by the work of Germany’s Fifth
Column organizations throughout
the world,” contends the writer.
In his article Mr. Guttmann pre-
sents an outline of the Fifth Col-
umn’s anatomy, based on ardu-
ous research in Germany and the
United States where he is now
becoming a citizen.
He shows that from a political
party the Nazi movement in Ger-
many was transformed into an
instrument to prepare the German
people for world domination: first,
by psychological means; second,
by military means.
In restrained, almost ency-
clopedic language Mr. Guttman
explains the functions of the Of-
ficial German and Nazi Agencies
abroad and goes into detail con-
cerning the school of the Aussen-
politisches Amt der N. S. D. A. P.,
the training institute for Fifth
Columnists.
“The purpose of the Fifth Col-
umn is to prepare a country not
under the authority of the Ger-
mm government for a direct
military conquest by German
forces or to install a government
in that country which shall act
upon the decisions of the Ger-
man government and, if necessary,
prepare the country for a German
military occupation,” writes Mr.
Guttmann.
“The propaganda base from
which National Socialism operates
consists of two main slogans. The
one speaks of the immediate
danger of communism, thus try-
ing to gather all anti-Communist
elements under its banner; the
other appeals to the masses to
free themselves from the Jewish
international bankers and war-
mongers who are thus branded as
enemies of labor.
"Every German diplomatic rep-
resentative abroad is a regional
commander of a certain part of
the Fifth Column. The German
Embassy, which includes repres-
entatives of all departments of
the Ministry for Propaganda and
Information, the Gestapo, and the
R’bbentrop Bureau, assumes the
position of a central office in each
country.
“If, in case of war, the German
Diplomatic Corps must leave the
country, the Stuetzpunkte (Sup-
portpoints) assume command.
There are several thousand of
these supportpoints all over every
continent in the world, and all of
them are located near strategic
points such as communication
centers, utility plants, airdromes,
main pipelines, and overland
telephone and telegraphic cables.
These supportpoints may be in-
nocent looking houses, stores,
shops, or private residences. They
are occupied by military experts
and officers of the Gestapo and
-are outfitted with radio receiving
and broadcasting sets, apparatus
for wire tapping, tools, and flags.
Some of the supportpoints serve
as arms and ammunition centers
only. In peacetime, support-
points serve as observation points
and hideouts for important agents.
In case of war regional command-
ers of the Fifth Column organi-
zations are advised to report to
these supportpoints for further
orders. Supportpoints take a
leading part in guiding German
aircraft and parachutists.”
Mr. Guttmann concludes with
an analysis of the Fifth Column
Mass Organizations whose acti-
vities include cultural and politi-
cal propaganda, military training,
economic espionage and penetra-
tion, industrial espionage and
sabotage.
