The Hitlerist organ “Angriff” which is edited by Deputy Goebbels, the Hitlerist leader in Berlin, makes an onslaught to-day on Professor Max Liebermann, the great Jewish artist, who last summer reached his 80th. birthday, and who was one of the principal signatories to the appeal issued to the German people a few days ago by the most distinguished men in Germany, calling for support for President Hindenburg his candidature for re-election to the Presidency, accusing him of having told a French journalist named Raymond Recouly that if #itler comes to power in Germany, the rench army must march into Germany to put down his Government, because a Hitlerist regime would endanger the peade of Germany and of the world.

The J.T.A. is informed that Professor Liebermann indignantly denies that he said anything of the kind alleged.
