MUCH OFFENCE has been caused in Canada by a broadcast by Colonel Lindbergh, the famous American airman, in America on Friday night.
Col. Lindbergh virtually suggested that Britain and other European countries withdraw from the Western Hemisphere lest they drag the United
States into war.
The broadcast is described by one Toronto news-
paper as "pure Hitlerian doctrine."
