Counselor J. Reuben Clark advises a Mormon "against your assuming as truth the most of the criticism you see leveled against Hitler and his regime in Germany. I visited Germany twice within the last half-dozen years... Hitler is undoubtedly bad from our American point of view, but I think the Germans like him." Because of such statements, the federal intelligence agencies investigate Clark in Utah as a possible pro-Nazi subversive.
