The anti-Semitic students riots in Vienna had their immediate effect upon the commercial benefits which the city derives from foreign tourists.
The riots, as well as the intense anti-Semitic propaganda carried on in posters throughout the city, resemble the outbreaks which took place during the Fourteenth Zionist Congress here two years ago.

They will proceed to other countries where guests are received differently, they state.
