The Stahlhelm, organization of German War Veterans, whose constitution limits membership to Aryans, is making overtures in the provincial cities, it is learned, to include Jewish war veterans as members.

The Stahlhelm leaders in the provinces have approached Jewish veterans with a view to membership, being impressed with the memorial volume showing the number of Jewish soldiers who died on the German front.

A general tendency is noted to abolish the Aryan clause in the Stahlhelm constitution.
