Huge placards bearing the Hitlerist slogan “Perish Judea” are posted up in all the Vienna streets in connection with the elections, in which the Hitlerist Party is developing an amazing activity giving rise to astonishment at the source of their large funds.
As happened a few days ago, the authorities have in reply to protests from the Jewish representatives declared that they have no power to order the removal of these placards.
The posters demand the withdrawal of citizenship rights from Jews, the confiscation of all Jewish property and a prohibition against Jews engaging in business, so that German Austrians of Aryan blood should be able to earn their bread.
