Indications that the Nazis'
former Detroit consul hoped to
use Father Charles E. Cough-
lin, pastor of Royal Oak's Shrine
of the Little Flower, for propa-
ganda purposes in America were
found in captured 1939 German
Foireign Office documents, pub-
lished Monday in London.
A memorandum, written when
Father Coughlin was an influ-
ential radio commentator in this
country, suggests that Consul
Fritz Hailer was unable to get
Berlin support on his project.

to City Commissions
Two leaders of the Detroit
Jewish community were named
this week by Mayor Cobo to
serve an city commissions for
four-year terms.
Leonard N. Simons, local ad-
vertising executive, was ap-
pointed, along with five other
Detroiters, as a member of the
City Art Commission.
, David Pollack, a member of
the Detroit Fire Commission
since his appointment by for-
mer Mayor Eugene Van An-
twerp in 1949, was re-named to
his third term on the commis-
sion.
The Nazi consul got his propa-
ganda idea when Coughlin wrote
him a letter attacking Nazi
maltreatment of Christians, the
report indicates. The consul
wrote Woermann, a Nazi poli-
tical department director, ask-
ing possibilities of reassuring
the pastor.
The British Foreign Office
emphasized the document as be-
ing an official German record.
