The Left Wing of the Christian Socialist Party, led by Dr. Jearzabek, has together with the Hakenkreuzler Party, headed by Dr. Riehl, started a new anti-semitic campaign in Austria. Speaking yesterday at a joint demonstration of the two parties, they prophesied that at the next elections, the official Christian Socialist (Government) Party, would be conducting an antisemitic campaign in order to revenge itself on the Jews who had voted at the last elections for the Social Democrats. They would call for a Numerus Clausus against the Jews in all fields of public and social life.
