The anti-Semitic Stuermer continues to incite its readers against the Jews without any abatement whatever. The notoriety this paper has obtained throughout the civilized world, the protests that have come from all sides have not made the slightest difference.
The editor, Julius Streicher, continues to enjoy the personal friendship of Hitler and carries on his anti-Semitic campaign in the security which that friendship affords.
But a rival has now sprung up in Berlin. This rival is called Der Judenkenner and is issued by the publishing firm that goes under the name of Der Freiheitskaempfer.
An article that appeared in the Judenkenner recently will suffice to show the character of the paper as a whole.
The article, which is written by a woman, is entitled “The German Woman in the Jewish War.” The authoress begins by stating that the Jews are preparing “the last decisive fight” against the “only two nations of superior race,” namely, “Germany and Japan.”
The Jews, she continues, are a “state within the state,” everywhere. They were responsible for the “belief in witchcraft” and for the “liberalism that deliberately endowed women with masculine qualities and so obscured their true nature.”
“Awake; Sisters, awake!” she cries.
She suggests that before things are allowed to go far, persons who take part in Jewish ritual should be made to clean up Berlin’s main thoroughfare and “publicly swear their oaths.” Then, after various mockery and ill-treatment, “their hides should be dusted with carpet-beaters” and “in this way many will be cured and we shall have our bit of fun.”
“Sisters!”—so she cries in her peroration—”the face of Germany is in your tender hands.”
