Intended to 1) Demonstrate to the world that an effective substitute for the horrors of war has at last been found through the boycott, 2) Rescue Christianity and the cause of racial and religious freedom from the domination of the State which now threatens to engulf and destroy it, 3) Disprove and set to rest for all time the utter falsity and absurdity of the widespread, constantly repeated German propaganda that the world-wide boycott of German goods is a Jewish movement." - Preface. Content is dominated by nine contributions from Samuel Untermyer, president of the publisher. A year prior to publication, on nationwide CBS radio Untermyer had in effect said "âThe Jews of the world now declare a Holy War against Germany.

That will destroy them because they are dependent upon their export business.â - online reference. [4], 134, [4] stapled pages. "Compliments of Samuel Untermyer" plate affixed to front cover.
