(Jewish Daily Bulletin)

Philipp Bouhler, business manager of the “Illustrierter Beobachter,” illustrated edition of the anti-Semitic “Voelkischer Beobachter,” was fined two hundred marks by the Munich court on a charge of blasphemy.

The charge was substantiated by quotations from a novel published by the paper. In the novel a Jew, who is depicted as the villain, thanked God after the commission of a crime, for having sent him another victim.
