Abstract
Description
Reports on activities of Colin Ross, German citizen now residing in Austria; attended lecture by Ross in Vienna recently; Ross said he had just spent two and a half years in America and spoke of the U.S. in highly derogatory terms; called the German-Americans a repressed minority who must rise up and rebuild the U.S. along the "German idea"; Ross says he is an exile from Germany, but he recently published a book in Germany and articles of his have appeared in German papers, which means he is not persona non grata there; no definite information that he is agent of present German government, but believes it likely; he plans to return to America shortly; Justice Dept. should be informed and his activities watched.
