That a new “League of Nations” to press anti-Semitic persecution on a world-wide scale will soon be formed, is the firm conviction of Julius Streicher, Nazi Governor of Franconia and publisher of “Der Stuermer,” Germany’s leading anti-Jewish organ.
Its purpose, declared Herr Streicher at a public meeting in Arnstadt, will be “to bring the Jewish people before an international court.”
“For many Germans and members of the Nazi Party,” he said, “the chaos which reigns among other nations at the present time is still an unsolved mystery. He who is conscious of the racial problem, has also the key to world history.
“He knows that in Spain and France as well as in Soviet Russia Jewry plays a decisive party in polities. The Jew thrives on the misfortunes of others and the people of the world will continue to be afflicted with misfortunes so long as the Jew is not entirely defeated.”
