Synopsis for Justice Society of America: "For America and Democracy!"

At their first official meeting, the members of the newly-formed Justice Society receive an urgent message from the Chief of the F.B.I., urging them to move against a number of fifth columnists, who seek to destroy America from within on behalf of the Axis powers. These hidden enemies are directed by spy-master Fritz Klaver, leader of the Grey Shirts, a Bund organization. The Flash stops the Grey Shirt activity in Michigan, while Green Lantern battles the Baron and his radio-jamming dirigible. The Spectre stops sabotage at a Pittsburgh munitions factory, Hourman exposes evildoing at the Oklahoma oil fields, and Dr. Fate uncovers a sabotage plot at the Boston Navy Yard. Sandman shields an anti-Axis newspaper editor in El Paso from Grey Shirt attacks, while Hawkman foils fifth columnists who seek to destroy a Flying Fortress, and the Atom stops student subversion at Tri-State College. Then, after learning that Klaver is based in Toledo, Ohio, where the Atom and Johnny Thunder have already been taken captive, the heroes apprehend the master manipulator and his closest aides, while Johnny Thunder's Thunderbolt deposits Klaver's house, with the heroes and villains inside, outside F.B.I. headquarters in Washington, D.C.
