Denouncement of Ludendorff’s statement that there exists in Germany a Catholic-Jewish alliance, is contained in resolutions passed by the Catholic German People’s Association, which is meeting in annual Congress in Berlin. A statement published by the Association brands as libelous the statement made by Ludendorff before the court which is trying the former Imperial general, Hitler and others for treason against the government, in connection with the unsuccessful “putsch” of last November.
Announcement has been made that Dr. von Kahr, the former Dictator, General von Lossow, Commander of the Reichswehr, and Colonel Heisser, all of whom have been charged with complicity in the attempt to overthrow the government, will be heard on Wednesday. All of the accused men have made statements to the court, Lieutenant Wagner and Lieutenant Perne, Ludendorff’s step-son, were to have completed the list of statements today and the examination of witnesses was scheduled to follow at once.
