Printed materials also include publications from organizations promoting democracy, human rights, and the creation of a Jewish state in Palestine, a copy of Low on the War: A Cartoon Commentary of the Years 1939‐1940, a pamphlet by the Friends of Democracy, Inc., entitled Father Coughlin: Self‐Condemned, and an advertisement for Joseph E. McWilliams’ 1940 American Destiny Party candidacy.
