The "New York American" has made a perfectly horrendous discovery. Most of America's outstanding educators and college presidents are Bolsheviks.
Included are John Dewey, Chancellor Chase of New York University, President Graham of North Carolina, President Hutchins of Chicago, President Neilson of Smith, President Wilkins of Oberlin, Dean Russell of Teachers College, Columbia; Professor Counts of the same school, Dean Withers of the School of Education at N.Y.U. and Robert L. Kelley, secretary at the Association of American Colleges.

The gentlemen we wish to expose are worse, WORSE! They have accepted money from the Soviet Government to give it advice on how to build up the Soviet Union.
One of them was adviser to the Soviet Auto Trust in building the automobile factory at Gorki. He is a Detroiter whose name is Henry Ford.
