Abstract
In March 1934 a liberal New York Congressman, Samuel Dickstein, a Democrat represent ing the Lower East Side of Manhattan, stood on the floor of the House of Representatives. Hitler had recently grabbed power in Germany and fascism seemed on the march. Even in Dickstein’s Manhattan, German supporters were goose-stepping at pro-Nazi rallies in Yorkville.
