The statement said the Lindbergh speech had been "improperly used by leaders" of what it called "the war party." The latter, it said, had "concealed" Lindbergh's denunciation of the treatment of the Jews in Germany, and also had concealed "the fact that" their greatest support comes from "the Southern states those with the least democracy in the country, poll taxes, unpardonable racial prejudice and discrimination against Negroes."

"I insist that the manner in which the President has brought our country to the peril of in-volvment in war," Nye said, "is not a thing inviting of 'unity' however great may be the desire to afford loyalty to one's government Says Britain Can ray. "So long as the present situation in the world remains only what it is today, never, never, never can there be unity in America on the issue of asking ourselves into these foreign wars." In addition to asserting there can be no American unity on aid to Russia, Nye criticised aid to Great Britain, asking: "How can there be unity in support of so far-reaching a program as was involved in the lend-lease policy, which finds us giving, giving, giving to Great Britain before she has begun to utilize such resources as she has right here in America with which to buy her defense requirements?"
