The German Women’s Association issued a public statement from its headquarters here today, protesting against the resurgence of anti-Semitism in West Germany.
In its statement, the association appealed to the cultural ministries of all German states to see to it that German youth is instructed on the “disastrous events” that occurred during the Hitler era. The women also appealed to parents to educate their children “in the democratic way of life, and to teach them the dignity of man, of all races and religions.”
