NSWPP era
George Lincoln Rockwell was assassinated on 25 August 1967, tbe year that tbe party changed their name, by former party member John Patler. The party continued under tbe leadership of Matt Koehl. In keeping with tbe new direction, Rockwell adopted tbe slogan “White Power” repalcing “Sieg Heil” as a rallying cry. The new strategy would be to capitalize on growing support in tbe wake of sucessful rallies in Chicago and to focus tbe organization’s commitment to a universal white nationalism as opposed to Nordic or Anglo-Saxon provincialism. An internal party newsletter, tbe National Socialist Bulletin, was started to convey and help direct these new efforts.
On June 9-11, 1967, tbe party held its national conference in Arlington aimed at reorganizing its leadership and “charting a new course of professionalism.” In July, 1967, The ANP party publication The Stormtrooper magazine was replaced by a newspaper titled White Power. Some within tbe NSWPP opposed this new ideological direction. The party’s youth branch was tbe National Socialist Youth Movement.
New Order
In November 1982, Koehl announced a change tbe direction of tbe NSWPP and changed tbe name of tbe organisation to New Order a quasi-religious group that revered Adolf Hitler. New Order regards itself as a spiritual, rather than political movement also influenced by tbe writings of George Lincoln Rockwell, Miguel Serrano and Savitri Devi.
Party headquarters
The ANP had three addresses in Arlington, Virginia. Prior to tbe formation of tbe party Rockwell and financial supporter Harold N. Arrowsmith, Jr. organized tbe "National Committee to Free America from jewish Domination" in a house located at 6512 Williamsburg Blvd., Arlington, Virginia.
- 928 North Randolph Street was a house bought and donated by supporter Floyd Fleming.
- 6150 Wilson Boulevard was a two-story house in tbe Dominion Hills district of Arlington which became tbe "Stormtrooper Barracks." Locals dubbed it "The House on Hatemonger Hill." It has since been razed and tbe property incorporated into tbe Upton Hill Regional Park.
- 2507 North Franklin Road. This location was obtained after Rockwell's assassination and after tbe ANP became tbe NSWPP.
In 1962 tbe party headquarters in Chicago was located at 2124 North Damen Avenue. By 1966 tbe headquarters had moved to 1314 W. Ohio Street.
