"Britain and U.S.A. want Finland for a New Battle Front" Article notes that Boston has been designated as the chief shipping port for consignments of war material to Soviet Russia.

Just days before the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, Father Coughlin launches another issue of anti-semitic, anti-Communist, soft-on-Hitler, anti-Roosevelt, anti-British invective. Banner headlines on cover sheet: "America Against Aid to U.S.S.R.!" Coughlin's paper comes out strongly against aid to the USSR--the banner headline is as misleading as is most of Coughlin's rhetoric-- he does not show any data to suggest that "America" is against the aid, only his paper. "Speaking of Secret Maps" article discusses captured Nazi maps which show how South America will be divided up when the Nazis have won. Article describes similar Soviet maps which carve up the U.S. "Personally, we believe that real Americans are much more concerned about the Stalin map than the Hitler one." "Father Coughlin and the Tidings" defends Coughlin against accusations that he is anti-Semitic, Anti-British and anti-Protestant.

"Yesterday...was the time to spread the truth of Christ. Today, the world is engaged in spreading the errors of the Antichrist." Editorial grumbles about U.S. Treasury spending three dollars for every dollar it receives. It concludes with "More important to Americans than the defeat of Hitler is the defeat of those ideas in our midst which are grooved in the pattern of Karl Marx." Article notes that thousands of American children don't have enough to eat, and complains that we are sending billions of dollars worth of food and war materials to Great Britain and the Communist USSR. Letters to the Editor are filled with anti-British hatred, and place Catholic Christians as opposed to war makers, warn that we are helping to preserve Marxian Communism. The Pro-American patriotism we remember from World War II is nowhere to be seen in this paper. Newspaper, brittle, front and back sheets loose, poor. (7651) $22.00. World War II/Newspapers/Religious Social Justice, Father Coughlin's National Weekly, January 19, 1942 Royal Oak, MI: The Social Justice Publishing Co. 20 pp. 28 x 40 cm. Nearly six weeks after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, Father Coughlin launches another issue of anti-semitic, anti-Communist, soft-on-Hitler, anti-Roosevelt, anti-British invective. Banner headlines on cover sheet: "God Versus Hitler -- Roosevelt's Issue"-- Coughlin reports that President in his Jan. 6th speech referred to God vs. the forces of evil-- the Nazis, Mussolini's Italians, and the Japanese. "He could have mentioned the name of Stalin" he ruefully says. Another story reports that the muddling inefficiency in Washington is worse than the inefficiency, rank carelessness and possible criminal negligence associated with Pearl Harbor. One editorial comments upon the appointment by the British of an "admiralissimo" to command British, American, Dutch and other forces, and suggests more British perfidy. Another editorial warns against giving war aid to the Soviets. Says author Jan Valtin , "It is necessary to help Stalin, but that doesn't mean we have to trust him." If the Communists emerge victorious in their struggle with the Nazis, if their plans for Sovietizing Europe materialize, they can thank the Allies for services rendered. Another full-page article notes that no where in Nazi Germany or Imperialistic Japan or Fascist Italy can be found the startling slavery of sharecroppers in the U.S. South. Newspaper, brittle, fair. (7652) $21.00. World War II/Newspapers/Religious Social Justice, Father Coughlin's National Weekly, February 9, 1942 Royal Oak, MI: The Social Justice Publishing Co. 20 pp. 28 x 40 cm. Two months after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, Father Coughlin launches another issue of anti-semitic, anti-Communist, anti-Roosevelt, anti-British invective. Banner headlines on cover sheet: "United States Invades Ireland" --- report that U.S. troops are stationed in Northern Ireland, which Eire considers part of the rebellious colonies of Ulster. "Jap War Machine Supplied by Allies" reports how private corporations sold materials now being used against us. "The bombs dropping on American boys came from American junk yards." Another editorial, "What Will Roosevelt Tell the People?" notes that Roosevelt is aware of the apathetic spirit dominating the minds of Americans who are engaged in a war for which they were not prepared and which they did not want. Another article notes how the U.S., in our rush to supply the British and the Soviets, cut General MacArthur short of supplies. “If MacArthur had the equipment we shipped elsewhere he would still be in control of all the Philippines, and the Jap navy would today be at the bottom of the ocean." Another article notes that British policies stripped Australia of the strength to ward off invasion. Singapore fell because Australian and New Zealander troops were in Libya, etc. Newspaper, brittle, fair. (7653) $20.00. World War II/Newspapers/Religious
