The German Federal Government resolutely condemns the antisemitic agitation and is determined to make it impossible for any anti-Jewish outbreaks to occur, General Croener, the Federal Minister of Defence, assured a deputation consisting of the members of the Presidium of the Central Union of German Citizens of Jewish Faith, Dr. Julius Brodnitz, the President, Dr. Ludwig Hollaender, the Director, Dr. Bruno Weil, Vice-President, and Dr. Alfred Wiener, Syndicus, Law Court Councillor Leo Wolff, President of the Federation of Jewish Communities in Germany, Captain Leo Loewenstein, President of the Federation of Jewish War Veterans, and ex-Secretary of State Dr. Julius Hirsch, who came to express to the Minister the growing concern among the Jewish population at the extent and violence of the antisemitic agitation conducted by the Hitlerists. It is not only the Jews, they pointed out, who are placed in danger by this campaign of incitement to bloodshed, but the whole of the internal peace of Germany is imperilled, and Germany’s prestige is lowered in the eyes of the whole world.
