German police authorities today confiscated the first issue of “Der Neue Stuermer,” a publication edited by Hans Jakob. The new newspaper published in its first issue a cartoon depicting the United States as leading in preparations for a third world war and listing the leaders of the Bonn government as “traitors of the German people.”
“Der Stuermer” was the name of the Nazi Party’s notoriously anti-Semitic mouthpiece, which was issued by Julius Streicher.
